Tough times for the liar from the Shire, and so even tougher times for the reptiles, but the pond was relieved to see that political principles still count for nothing when it comes to kounting Klive's kash in the reptile klaw ...
No shame and no pride and no memory, though the pond can remember the days when the reptiles used to pour scorn on Tony Jones for keeping late night company with Clive ... now they need the cash, and if that means selling your soul and the front page to Clive's braying, then the reptiles are down for it ...
As for the rest, it must be hard for a reptile to know where to turn, given the headlines of the day...
That's probably why the top of the digital edition was a wasteland featuring a couple of odd bods harping away in alleged reptile EXCLUSIVES ...
Election guru? Yep, one of the fuckwits who managed to lose with loser comrade Bill ... but when the pond looked at the comments section, the cupboard was just as bare ...
Desperate times, and that's how the pond ended up keeping company with dropkick Cameron doing his best to help out the reptile cause ...
Ah, it's back to the glorious silly old bugger days of comrade Hawke ...
Actually the pond would just like you to fuck off Cameron, and while you're at it, take your Einem with you ...you do realise you're just playing the pawn, the Fool to the reptiles' rather obvious and pathetic and increasingly desperate game?
You did realise that the reptiles would turn your sackcloth and ashes routine into an EXCLUSIVE headed "Labor guru fears election loss over 'Albanese void'", close kissing cousin to Cameron Stewart valiantly spinning threads with Faith in Albanese, but who is he?
Some guru. Is that what they call a reptile stooge these days? It was only when the reptiles reminded the pond of who you were that the pond realised the game ...
Ah, another quisling lickspittle fellow travelling comrade Bill lover from Queensland ... why it might yet be possible to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory, and see Comrade Bill re-installed and valiantly lead the ALP to a defeat sometime around 2026 ... what an inspiration Jeremy Corbyn remains.
Well played, blathering on, blathering one, while there are juicy peaches to be plucked, and it's left to the likes of David Rowe to do the plucking ... with more pluckable Rowe always here ...
As for the rest, the pond is aware of the sensitivities of readers about the presence of petulant Peta, and so she's been sent to a late arvo slot, but that only leaves the lizard Oz editorialist acting as her little Sir Echo ... doing a but, billy goat, butt ...
You see? Just recycling petulant Peta, and more of that anon, and meanwhile, time to wrap up this morning's remarkably sodden - here no climate science, no climate science here - proceedings with an infallible Pope ...
By golly Mr Potato Head is looking better by the day ...
So Good ol' Camie has worked on 33 election campaigns for Labor over 30 years. I wonder just how many of those Labor has won, especially those won from opposition.
ReplyDeleteNow that the 'Editorialist' has also informed us that the Assistant Minister to Scott Morrison is one Ben Morton, I humbly add this, from the 'Wiki' to fill the void in the editorial - of what it is that the Assistant Minister actually does -
ReplyDelete'Ben Morton was appointed as Assistant Minister to the Prime Minister and the Cabinet from 29 May 2019, which includes a duty of responding on behalf of the Prime Minister regarding the National Cabinet.[2] Relating to this position, Morton has pointed out infrastructure as a primary issue.'
Yep - that absolutely justifies the couple of mill a year it costs for the office of even an assistant minister.
Hmm. Now Morty was "appointed" from 29 May 2019 and his "duty" includes writing notes to the National Cabinet which was established on 13 March 2020. So what did he do for the 10 months between the one and the other ?
DeleteI don't think that you have to be a pedant to know that that sentence ("Ben Morton...) is a grammatical car crash.
DeleteSo, according to Mr. Ed, the AEC has the power to declare that an entity is a political party. But we know that the Act requires a political party to have 1500 members. So if Climate 200 doesn't have 1500 members, it can't be a political party. Either there is a glaring contradiction in the Act, or Mr. Ed is making stuff up.
ReplyDeleteI guess Mr. Ed is not aware that many Jewish people are opposed to the actions of the Israeli Government in Gaza. No point of course in telling him to read something like The New York Review of Books, (which regularly has articles criticising the Israeli Government) - Eds only read The Australian.
Joe - one of the things 'we' don't want is any inquiry into the arrangement in which Australian-born lads and lasses, doing their couple of years on a kibbutz to improve their chances of entering, say, the diamond trade, also serve in an arm of the Israeli military. An arm with a separate title, and a bit of definitional legerdemain, so this Oz government, and Minister Potatohead, do not charge them with serving with a foreign military, particularly one beating-up on civilians. Nope, that action is so much better directed at crazed fanatics who get involved in other stoushes, like that unpleasantness in Syria.
