(Authorised
by the Seamen’s Union
and the Waterside
Workers Federation , the above
“phoney” election note
circulated during the “
unlosable election” that
melted Coalition Leader, John Hewson
. It
presented rugged - up Little
Johnny as the Abominable
“No” Man when it
came to the wages
and conditions of
the workforce. FIGHTBACK ! , remember?
Tony Abbott was on Hewson’s staff at the
time . Hewson was
not impressed
by Abbott (see
Michael Duffy’s book on Mark Latham and Abbott ) , called
him “Spud”, and eventually gave him the
sack. )
In what looked like an
American tele –evangelists gathering , ecstatic
Tories recently pranced about and spoke in tongues
( real solutions? ) ,
convinced that the
Promised Land was
in sight . Former PM John Howard was thawed
out for the extraordinary political occasion . With gleaming white permafrost on his
bushy eyebrows,
Howard revved up the Liberal
happy clappers , said
by
many
to
look like
delirious Hillsong
worshippers.The strange
rally included a
pair of cavorting
sNOwmaidens and a
hulking , moaning ,
anorexic Yeti .
The Tory jubilation turned to screams of dismay soon after when Kevin Rudd rose from the dead , assisted by obviously satanic forces. With the return of the Messiah- Kevin 07/13- can he possibly prevent the ALP from being cast out into the cruel, cold world? Will the Mad Monk –like Hewson –lose another unlosable election and end up a pin cushion , skewered by his true blue mates? The present political drama has more twists , turns and Icy Pops than the Adventures of Eskimo Nell.
