As we head towards the final week of the QLD election campaign, and the polls are, IMHO, reflecting more the views of Rupert Murdoch et al, than those of the wider QLD community, it’s only to be expected that Newman should suffer the slings and arrows of outrageous scrutiny, not to mention outrageous poetry, followed shortly thereafter by outrageous misfortune 😯 😉
I was going to call this one “Oh the humanity!”, but there’s not a lot of humanity on display with Newman or the LNP more widely, but rather much ego driven self aggrandisement, and many unanswered questions over gross self interest, conflict of interest issues, and their litany of suspect, some would say corrupt, practices. 😈
Lies, general dishonesty, backflips and self serving policy direction are the hallmarks of the Newman State governments first and hopefully last term of office, with the shadow of corruption and conflict of interest, hanging over many of the ministers, from the top down, and threatening to blow the LNP wide open, with winning the only option for covering up their mendacious and corrupt dealings.
It’s very telling about a government, when their own start publicly crapping on them, like the extraordinary diatribe unleashed on Newman by that doyen of right wing nut-jobbery, Alan Jones 😯 with other disaffected Liberals like Clive Palmer, and Dr Chris Davis adding to the chorus of discontent. 😯
So QLDers, you don’t have to believe us, take it from the LNP insiders, who know! 😉 But if you had believed us at the last election, we wouldn’t be in the mess, in which we now find ourselves 😡
So my fervent cry of despair, at the mere thought of another 3 years of this self serving and corrupt LNP government is;
Oh the Newman-ity!
Oh… the Newman-ity
Of self absorbed inanity
That’s enshrined in Newman’s vanity
And proves the mans insanity
He’s just a raving knob
😯
On the subject of mendacity
Newman has a great capacity
For lying with Tenacity
And lacking all veracity
He’s not fit for the job
👿
He’s a wrecker of ecology
With his whacko ideology
He suffers cash idolatry
And he owes us an apology
The little right wing slob
😡
He’s stuffed the states economy
With spin and gross dishonesty
That’s expected from the LNP
And the hallmark of their polity
Lies flow freely from his gob
😯
Our assets he’ll be “Leasing”
As by stealth our ownership’s ceasing
And our state he will be fleecing
While his palm, corporates are greasing
As hard questions, off… he’ll fob
🙄
He’s a little man who’s sleazy
And particularly greasy
With an arrogance that’s breezy
And corruption he finds easy
Cos he’s a crooked right wing snob
😈
With his morals all but missing
Up the wall, our lives he’s pissing
As miners arses he is kissing
You can hear the serpent hissing
While insiders start to dob
😯
His credibility’s lacking
And his smug demeanour’s cracking
We have to send him packing
Cos he really does need sacking
He isn’t worth two bob
🙄
His ideas must be rejected
And his party not selected
Cos we’ll all be so affected
As their corruption is perfected
And our future they will rob
👿
Hilarious. Hod DID you manage all those rhymes? Breathtaking stuff, and all true, too.

Hey Kate 🙂 believe it or not, it started out as an off beat limerick 😯 but once I got into it, it morphed into something else 😉 I read the first few verses to my mate yesterday, who though it had a Frank Zappa feel, and he’s a huge Zappa fan 😯
I just wanted to write something a bit different, that captured the essence of the true Newman and his capacity for mendacity 😉
Cheers 😀

Goodness my gracous! I never would have guessed a Frank Zappa connection, but then I was never a big fan of his. Anyway, it’s a most refreshing and highly successful bash at a different structure.

Biggy, I never got into Zappa, as Tull was more my cup of tea, but my mate often wears a “Zappa on the crappa” T shirt, and quotes lines from songs all the time 🙄
Although yesterday he was wearing a T shirt with “I’m allergic to stupid people” on it 🙂 and he reckons he’s wearing it again on polling day, and when an LNP’er offers him a how to vote card, he’s going to start sneezing, and point to the T shirt 😀

I can see a knighthood after this brilliant ditti (which you will of course reject, another slap in the mush for our tones).
On the downside if Can’t do’s mob get back in without him, your passport to Qld could be revoked and a Manus island spot beckoning or Frazer island, not sure which gulag they have on tap for dissidents which is currently overcrouded with “I am with Stupid” tee shirt wearing protestors. Labor have a bloody big fence to jump. I will be requesting my rellies in Brisbane do the right thing to ensure the lnp are evicted, every little helps.

Well Truthy you did not get a gong or a mention after all but glory be our very own tones has done it again a “SIR” to Phil the greek as Julian Burnside says a demotion to Phil. Another anonymous LNP (are there any other types now) says Australia day and Australia is now a joke. From the line in the song “Send in the clowns” – don’t bother there here.

Yes mate, we just seem to go from farce to… High farce 😯 to the totally ridiculous 🙄
What a good start to the year, with Abbott displaying his own brand of stupid, and Newman delivering his own special kind of stupid, based on Abbott’s 😯
Maybe those two should get a room, and while they’re in it, we could lock and barricade the door 😀
He also said that if the government gets back but some of their MP’s don’t, they wont be honouring any promises made in those electorates that go to independents or the ALP… WTF? There goes the last vestiges of democracy in QLD, with electoral blackmail as another LNP tool 😈 What ever happened to governing for all QLD’ers ❓
