CANBERRA : Parliament is facing a major blockage as cleaners here today voted to stage a year long strike over the use of a Peking Duck , above, brought in to Australia under the new trade agreement with China , to clean the Trade Minister's flaming fury . The duck, looking like a goose , was shown on television with a toilet brush in his hand on the West Wing of parliament house.
It is understood he was smuggled into parliament disguised as a Patagonian Trotting Duck by Liberal Party Funk Bunker sanitation engineer, Harpic Harry, whose erratic behaviour has often been described by psychiatrists as indicting he is clean round the bend. Proof positive that the duck is from Peking and not Patagonia is the fact that he eats recycled dim sims with chopsticks during his five minute lunch break .
Parliamentary cleaners recently went on strike over their paltry pay and during the outage all persons entering the building were given a dishcloth , a peg and had to put out the vital Lady Scott tissues themselves.
