PM and Louie the Fly |
CANBERRA : Caught brushing a fly away in the House of Representatives , this classic photograph epitomises how the former high flyer Malcolm Turnbull now resembles a blowfly stuck on the Coalition's never ending roll of sticky flycatcher paper . Along with mince pies at Christmas time , these sticky fly traps used to be all the go in Australia . Now Malcolm's inner buzz feeders seem to get caught up daily in some sticky issue from which there is no escape , just like those repulsive hanging cemeteries in kitchens throughout the nation .
In his bid to evade a sticky political end , the PM rushed up to consult imported bluebottle and Bill basher , Barnaby Joyce , at the New England by-election . He and the glassy eyed Barnaby, who looked as if he had been bitten by an African tsetse fly ,wore similar made in China shirts, the smelly armpits of which were thoroughly checked by ASIO for bugs.
The two men on top of the steaming true blue dung heap...until Bennelong result.
