Oh sure there are antipodean attempts at distraction ... the reptiles are peddling the usual sorts of saucy doubts and fears in good time for the election season…
Quick, hide under the bed. They're coming, they're coming … money grabbers and greenies, and panic, people, panic ...
And the pond shed tears at the sight of the flag rampant at the top of the page …
Oh noble, heroic invasion, how we love thee …
But if the reptiles aren't much of a distraction from the joys of the UK parliament live, the question arises, Mr Speaker, as to whether Barners is a reptile, and might not he, as a mere rogue and stumblebum, test the will of the house, or at least the pond?
Point of order Mr Bercow, surely Barners must have the floor …though the matter and the method and the situation might well be "lah ment able" ...
A miracle … not a mention of climate science … but luckily, if the Speaker please, the pond can interrupt the proceedings of the house with a disruptive Pope cartoon, with more disruptive papal outbursts here …
Hmm, a dissenting voice, but please, hand the floor back to Baaarners …
It was when Barners reached the dead koalas, that the pond thought Barners had jumped the shark and nuked the fridge … but moving forward, as we must on crucial debates, the pond couldn't resist breaking a new year's promise …
You see, the pond had promised to leave Crikey alone in the new year, but what of this, a matter crucial to issues reptilian?
Sublime hypocrisy rampant …
And now the question on the floor is whether the rest of the hypocrisy should be noted. The pond cannot defer this division …
What else? As if news of sublime reptile hypocrisy was news at all …
Well by following Bercow's tribe, the pond sacrificed the chance to watch live nominee William Barr's attempt to serve the Donald … but a cartoon or two will do …
And so to end proceedings with a little light reading …
Yes, the dog botherer has the fear, and fancies himself as not self-interested, though the pond sees self-interest each time any reptile scribbles furiously to preserve the 'leet order of easy access to world famous baristas in Surry Hills …
But as the house has turned to issues relating to TransPennine rail services - seven cancellations out of ten times - who'd want to be stuck in Newcastle on the way to Tamworth? - and with the live stream abruptly cancelled, with the Speaker's indulgence, the dog botherer might be allowed to take to the floor to show off his fear and loathing ...
$70k.?!
Tut tut, a mess of pottage … this is how to make out like a bandit in real style …
232k … that's more the pond's style …
And besides, it gets you a top notch expert in the movement of water in quarries and one of the world's leading climate scientists, who might help Barners understand that the fish kill is not only not the fault of cotton … it's got nothing to do with the theology known as climate science …
And now back for a dog botherer coda ...
By golly the reptiles are anxious … the levels of fear revolving around SloMo are astonishing to behold … and yet each day they keep running their scare and fear mongering … and how surprising it is, given the way that the reptiles' favourite projects, Brexit and the Donald, are going so swimmingly well …
Why surely the reptiles should be holding 'leet street parties in Surry Hills to celebrate ...
Here, in lieu of a party ticket, and with a reminder pill testing is a no go, have a few more cartoons ...
Hi Dorothy,
ReplyDelete“a 70-gigalitre cut to the environmental water recovery target that his advisory committee did not support – will mean the Darling River will run dry one year in three.”
Don’t say Barnaby wasn’t warned;

Umm, is the "tilting" in that Guardian article comparable to Barnaby "tilting" his attentions towards Vikki ?
DeleteOnly Barnaby Joyce's booze brain could equate two imaginary dead koalas with over a million dead fish in the Darling River at Menindee.
