Greg Hunt….He sure is!
Neat work, Firsty. It appears that Madam Lash Speaker has taken sides far earlier in the proceedings than expected. She’s effectively sanctioned a three year namefest.

Day Two of the ROFL Government … the jokes are thin but the spectacle is a hoot.
Three years of unabashed laughter, as the national health bill for stomach cramps soars.

Absolutely spot on Mr “Because He Can” First Dog! Everyone is fair game now. None of us is safe. I feel a Name That Pollie competition coming on.

We dont know the prime minister for silly walks` script writer is, but she is as lousy at the funny names as she is at driving drunk. It is going to be fun to compare just how much legislation gets through this parliament compared to the last.

There is a probably apocryphal story about a debate in the House in the 1950’s that went something like this:
Member for A: the member for B has the brains of a sheep
Speaker: the member for A will withdraw that remark
Member for A: sorry Mr Speaker. The member for B does not have the brains of a sheep
