Bob Hawke. Channelling God, in declaring ” No Child shall live in Poverty”!

In the troubled times it’s always reassuring to go back to that maxim of the 1930’s, ‘these troubled times’. It’s a palliative for all the news that makes sense, but then it doesn’t.  It’s the existential  rebound upon the existential crisis. And confusion is the matrix that holds it together. 

Tony Santamaria speaks to GOD via the people of Warringah

Cecil (cautiously) looks out from the pcbycp policy Think- tank.

But after detailed analysis by the pcbycp policy think tank we believe most things aint confusing. It’s just the way they’re dressed up. For instance Labor lost the election. According to Hillary Shorten: “powerful vested interests were arrayed against Labor”. Yes indeed, those interests, self interest, greed and short sightedness, pretty well sum up the country, and Rupert and Clive just did their bit to help us stay that way. Gotta say that in hindsight Bob Browns decision to send the anti Adani convoy to Clermont as a way of bashing up the Queenslanders did the trick. Singularly that was a basketful of deplorables high water mark, and the deplorable responded deplorably. It’s all very well being high and mighty about principle and worrying about tangential issues like the environment, but you cant proselytise to Queenslanders. They’re God-fearing and they know righteousness by heart. And according to the Catholic Boys Daily, (the Australian) we need more of it. That’s why gladly they’re pushing for religious freedoms now that the Labor bogey has been slayed, so God-fearing blokes can say horrible things about non God-fearing blokes and go back to stoning women and hate as promulgated by the Bible in 100 AD. 

Adani will be up and running before you can say election cycle. And those tax cuts to really wealthy people who make no contribution to society are in the bag. A win win for bigness in being smallness. CORE PRINCIPLES.

There’s a cultural flow on effect that aint confusing. It’s in the nations DNA

Tony Santamaria talks to Rupert (post Warringah) on God’s Telephone.

Ex prime ministers who served for as little as fifteen seconds will get a HUGE increase in their pension. Unlimited travel and the ability to lobby as many special interest groups as they like for ever. A God-send for the likes of Tony Santamaria, who can now just like his namesake, keep Australia away from imagination and forward thinking. And there are no increases to science, technology and innovation,. To ask the reason why? IS DEATH! A nod to the development industry to keep doing what they’re doing, and hope for the banks post Royal Commission its business as usual. That’s not confusing or troubling either. 

And we have our Barack Obama moment. Ken Wyatt as Australia’s first indigenous Indigenous Affairs Minister for Indigenous Australia. This is their “no child shall live in poverty” singularity ay work. We  anticipate seeing the same level of change to the status of indigenous Australians, as Barack’s triumph did for the African Americans. With a bit of luck the incarceration rate will continue to climb, but the for the cameras, there’ll be much possum cloak wearing and stirring. 

Good thing we don’t have a scary innovative risk taking government. For a nation of superannuants, that’s too scary to contemplate, and wealth distribution and significant reform are gone. Albo reckons we all need to look after wealth, and I suppose as a sinecured pollie, it’s good that he’s looking after his constituency. 

Others use the Lager-phone.

As the froggy submariner said to the auditor general;  ‘plus ca change, plus cest la meme chose’, which is frog for “winners are grinners” and that aint confusing either.
