BRISBANE : In a desperate bid to
save his seat of Ashgrove, Premier
Campbell Newman has promised to build a
toad museum in his electorate if he does not get
run over by a
Mr Whippy van while mixing with real people on the campaign trail.
An artist’s impression of Toad Hall , the first of 20 to be built across the state , is exclusively shown above, based on one in Thailand . The ALP immediately said this weird proposal shows that the ratty and rattled LNP is running a desperate Wind In The Willows Tv, hot air and spin campaign .
ELECTION ROADKILL?

In a fighting statement , Premier Newman said that if he is squashed as a result of the vote on election night, he hopes the LNP survives to rule the lily pond and will not waive construction of the Ashgrove toad edifice as a memorial to him. A string of toad museums would boost the tourist industry , he croaked , and could be quickly converted into casinos as well to raise revenue .
