The Member for Gina: “Point of Order, Madam Parrot! The Honourable Dismember for Rupert’s Buttocks and Wendy Wrangling is talking through his wig in an unduly masculine manner!”.
Cries of “Shame!”, “Rhubarb!”, “Yap!yap!yap!yap!” and “Julie, give Christopher his lipstick back right now!” echo through the chamber.
Madame Parrot: “The Honourable Member for Lower Scrotum will withdraw from the ute immediately – and put that goat down! Have some respect for this place!”
Senator Conroy: “Wrong chamber, Brunhilda! You have Morrison all over your stuffed toy General”.

Also: Necrotising fasciitis – No General, that’s usually poymicrobial not viral.

I had to watch a whole season of humphrey bear to get my IQ back into double figures. But reading the Australian………You may have to watch the entire series

Jewelry Bishop’s role in this Conroy V Campbell Senate folly is particularly revolting, although mercifully she has avoided pointing her butt at the camera in the house. Full points to Conroy, but it just provides more cannon fodder for Abbott’s Stasi team.
I eagerly await FD’s take on the emerging horror of Bronny Bigjob’s performance as speaker….
