Good news for those angry old white blokes who haven't quite gotten over #DrWho being a woman and then a black guy.
They've now got something else to be outraged about.

The motorcycle ashtray of Australian journalism, Adam Creighton, has found a perfect home at the #IPA.
You ladies should just stay in the kitchen, right?

"Democracy dies in darkness" was meant as a cautionary statement.
The #WashingtonPost has just turned it into their editorial policy.

Again, just trying to work out Barnaby Joyce's appeal to "real Australians".
Is it the infidelity or the passing out pissed in the gutter?

Of course there's no immediate pressure on Susssan.
Hastie, or even the perennially irrelevant Well Done Angus, don't really want the job now as the Opposition won't even be competitive for at least two elections...

Fucksake Susssan Ley, what a desperate despicable attempt at politicising a true Australian tragedy trying to save her own arse.
Problem is, some of her own party probably don't think she's going low enough.
This is embarrassing.
For her, mostly.
