I corrected that earlier but apparently lost the post.

Did anyone catch the Myers fashion parade yesterday? The new summer collection featuring the latest burqa's from Kabul and Cairo, was simply divine. Jen Hawkins looked ravishing as usual in a Abdul of Bagbad creation, a rather saucy number, a revealing off the shoulder nijab ensemble by Abdul. Abdul has set the tone for this summer with a marvelous selection in black, which I do anticipate will be the eye poppers at this years spring racing in Melbourne.
I hate to be a gossiper! but a little birdie did tell me, Bronnie Bishop, our very own chic of fashion, has be seen in 'The House of Mohammad' in Collins Street several times, trying on some of the very latest in Middle Eastern attire, one must keep up appearances when one is in the public eye, as one does.

Jay, you forgot the ill fitting trackey dacks, you know the 'Lowes' kind $9.99, which have them pockets which give you instant access to your hanky and TAB guide hidden inside your undies! They come in a variety of colors, dark grey and light grey. How many pairs do you have?

Confusion reigns supreme in Canberra, the latest communique from on top, states. "School children in burqa's will be locked behind barbed wire with the dirty old men in raincoats, AND! Tony Abbott, AND! Bill Shorten, that's the real rub, being locked up with Abbott and Shorten."

I for one would pay good money to see Chrusty Milne and Syphy Hanson Young wearing burqas.

I would even settle for a paper bag over the face.

Dear Shadow Minister,

Now, now.

We appreciate your sense of humour.

However, you can't be against something for
some and then for it for others. Well you
can - but lets keep it balanced.

I'm sure that many other posters could come
up with paper bags for quite a few of our pollies
on both sides of the political spectrum. Or instead
of covering their faces - what about just their
mouths? Duck-tape anyone?
