Other News Yesterday - Installment 1(iii) e

 

 

In breaking news PM Scomite has upbraided his fellow citizens to stop their self-flagellation and get on with celebrating everything light pink on Australia day.  ‘We’re a country where all your gains have been bequeathed by Monarchs during their reign, backed up by big Daddy in heaven”, crowed Scomite, “it’s wealthy light pink folk like me and Rup who have forged this country into a second rate land of leaners, fixers and dodgy deals, beholden to others, afraid of brown people on boats and where paying your tax and value adding is for fools”. 




Scomite has announced a new day to celebrate everyone else…. In a stupid country, we let ourselves be bullied and fooled by people unfit to rule, but celebrate the Australian way….





In other news the ABC honcho is no more.  She tripped on the stairs on the way to the office, and is now on life support.  Mortified she is, barely able to speak; she is hunkered down in a hospice for retiring CEOs with her abacus. 



Rumours circulate, the Board is mute, and Scomite seemed to know but is busy with his commute. Planes and trucks and automobiles and fitting sessions for ultra large work safe gear fill his day but the fate of the lost CEO barely raises an eyebrow.  “It’s the Board’s job and they do it for a living…we just appoint the guys we like and leave it to them to do the killing”.





New stories have emerged of elder folk being abused for cash.  Their relatives pay, too much they say, but at the end of the day, their old folk are just ancient kiddies anyway, with nothing to say. You can slap them and kick them and pull them every which way, until they bleed and pee themselves in the cutest way.  It’s another poster for Australia Day. 





They say how you treat your weakest is the measure of a nation…we barely trouble the scorer when it comes to the disabled and aged but we love our footy, a bet and some smug bastard lying to us routinely about celebrating our achievements “sensitively, respectfully, proudly, together.”






 Breaking World News (summary)




Grabber-in-Chief continues to laud the salacious stories emerging of his nominee for judge supremo.  Matt Savanah has claimed ‘virginity’ as defence against claims of rapacious activities.  “I was innocent as a lamb in those days”, tweeted the Judge, “it was hard to remember through the tequila fog but I do remember something about a dog. What happened in Maryland…got talked about a lot in Yale”.




British PM Foxweather May is struggling with calls for an end to her days. Numbers are tight and the band is on song; the comatose parrot of Brexit refuses to move and the Irish are humming a wishful tune…




The Grabber’s Attorney-General is on the skids, refusing to break laws at his boss’s whim.  “I made that guy the attorney honcho”, tweeted the Grabber, “and he’s been a complete flopper…his deputy is no better…I’ll have to take them to the chopper.”
