Default Aussie Pollies, Dontcha Juist Love 'em?

From a little chat between Peter Beattie and Maurice Iemma...

"She's deputy premier and treasurer and every other piece of shit I don't want," the Queensland Premier said.

In the same conversation, Mr Iemma described Sydney's new Cross City Tunnel chief executive as a "****wit".

What was even better was that Beattie or the other one when confronted with this said something along the lines of ' Its australian to swear , its one of our cultural traits, its what makes us Australian'

Bloody Oath mate

Personally this is one of the reasons I moved here, my continual foul mouthed outbursts in the office are totally accepted here.

We just got a school note home about a trip to Paliament house and how it will enrich the childrens knowledge, seeing how our politicians work :scared:

Quite funny, the teacher told the kids it used to be a trip to Boggo Road Jail, but this is just as interesting probably pretty similar behaviour too.

I think it's quite refreshing to see them in a normal light instead of the British MP's that are so up there own arses and full of thier own self importance claiming to be whiter than white

Reminds me of when Major was caught - in similar circumstances during a private conversation - calling some of his colleagues bastards.......

It ain't just the Aussies!
