Just eight days away from Christmas - but there’s
no relenting in an inane invective aired as the new
view o’ what matters; and who’s to say that a bye-
election in Bennelong can’t be blessed with ‘sane’
and sensible rhetoric - well it wasn’t ever going to
happen in ways we’d recognise, tho claiming that
is rather like relenting and joining a throng singing
‘jingle all the way’ to ballot boxes of parochialism
Yet we’ve had little relief from political mantles we
couldn’t wear without scaring our self-images into
early retirement; yes, there’s scant credibility in an
odious process jamming th’ airwaves with such a
vituperatively endless debate whether politics has
the right to dictate what matters at Christmas …
