Walking Queenscliff and going Up the Spout…

Shane with Red Flag

G'day  Petals,

Mrs Wombat and I had a wander around Queenscliff, a pretty seaside town with quite a history from the beginnings of Victorian settlement. 

It has a variety of architectural styles and much in the way of the expensive new bland in holiday abode, blue gingham building design. 

An then there is Wombat droppings; the chronicle of this Wombat's country's  demise and becoming nothing more than a hole in the ground provider of raw material to the lowest bidder.

Wombat Droppings or Low Down Oz Politics

“My . Vellow . Auztralian .”... woodenly intoned Unemployment Minister, Senator Eric “Vichy” Abetz,  “Ve . Haf a Nui . vay . ov .making you voerk. And . you . vill be happier, less . stressed and . var, var . less .costly . to . your . vellow . Auztralian.”

The automata having been fully wound up for his “Lateline” interview with Emma Alberici, “Vichy“, with head well back, to make himself look taller, whirred and rattled through his repertoire of answers with nary a mental glance as to their content being relevant to the question and finished with a mechanical smile so smug in its mirthless stupidity that it could well be the model for all mindless mirthless smiles.

The biggest bang for taxpayer buck was the revelation that 50-60 year old job seekers will only have to volunteer for 15 hours of work a week to qualify for the dole.

It is understood (but not yet officially announced) that the Defence Force work they can volunteer for will include land-mine and roadside bomb clearance. Wheelchair and motorised scooter unemployed will be particularly encouraged to volunteer for this exciting work as they can cover a much wider area than those with sticks, crutches or walking frames.

This cunning plan has obvious side effect benefits for the Murdoch-Mandated Liarbrils.

Like Fighter pilots in WW1 whose lives at “the front” was estimated to be 10-15 hours, life expectancy will be similar for these unemployed thus guaranteeing a high turn-over and 10-15 years later, less economic pressure on pension entitlements and the PBS.
Please note that volunteering is compulsory if you want the dole.... ergo, you work for a minimum wage.

Joe “Cereal / Toyota-Killer” Hockey has finally admitted that there is no budget emergency and that the Australian economy is actually in good shape. He made the confessional announcement in New Zealand as it would not be believed in Australia given the effectiveness of the Liarbril’s four year misinformation campaign promulgated through the Murdoch media and given the entrenched economic stupidity of both the Business Council and the fantasist IPA  (“Coot’s-With-Queer-Ideas-From-a-Parallel-Universe”) who effectively run Australia.

It would seem that “Cereal / Toyota-Killer”, feeling the odious wrath of unpopularity wafting about his ego has begun to cast-off from his Titanic like Government by also releasing the longest job application CV in history. His claims that of it being A/, biography, B/ truthful, and C/ not self-serving have been treated with the some of the disdain that most political hagiography’s deserve.

Laughing Kookaburra

As happened to “Little-Johnny” Howard’s when 9/11 occurred, “Rabbutt-the-Huns” popularity has been boosted by the murders of some 300 people on MH-17 by some Slavs.

The Singaporean “Straits Times,” this Wombat has been led to believe, is claiming it could have been the Ukrainians and not the Russians at fault. 
“Rabbutt-the-Hun’s” “Hairy-Chested” three word, single syllable mumblings have enlivened Bogan minds once again as violence is much more interesting to them than a social compact and in the real vision of dismembered bodies is affirmation of why they enjoy “shoot-em-up” games and “slasher“ films.

We can find little truth in the rumour that “Rabbutt-the-Hun” has hoped his Papal friend Pell would be in an Indulgent mood and recruit the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse to work alongside “Slagger”Textor on the next Liarbril campaign titled: Fear and Death Does So Become a Liarbril.

Scott “Drone” Morrison has decided that Curry is not his favourite dish and the High Court not his favourite playpen.

Author and Man Booker contender, Richard Flanagan discussing his book “The Narrow Road to the Deep North” said that we’re on a slippery slope with the cruelties being enacted on Manus and Christmas Islands and until recently, floating Hulks. He said that the evil we are doing cannot be contained only there. It is inevitable that it will permeate out and seep through our society.

Aspirational Bogans, “Coot’s-With-Queer-Ideas-From-a-Parallel-Universe,” and Liarbril and Notional Party members think this is silly and point to their time honoured banner by Heironymous Bosch in refutation of anything like that happening.

IPA led Recovery

In the “Tardis State” Where-All-Goes-Backward, Un-Planning Minister Matty “What’s-a-Green-wedge” Guy has been ventilating vociferously about opposition Leader Daniel Andrews’ suitability to be Premier because of leaks made by the Liarbrils of the Tardis State that they hate each other’s guts. “The Age” also went into a faux rage over the matter to cover the fact that the reporter who mislaid their recording device (picked up and listened to by Labor apparatchiks) had recorded “Off-the-Record” interviews and had been less than forthright in their interview dealings….. a bizarre little episode that might, with further investigation reveal the aging but still malevolent claws of the “Dorian Gray of Tardis State Politics” Jeff “Bully-Boy” Kennett…… but then Victoria under the Liarbrils is a peculiar place where a call centre job is more esteemed than a scientific one and Liarbril fundraising is reaching the art form levels of their NSW counterparts…..clean energy is bad and dirty energy good….unfortunately, no-one thought to ask Matty whether his costing to the Tardis State taxpayer of $3,000,000.00 because of his Ventnor Frolic made him more suitable than Andrews as a future premier
