//Seriously they must take us all for idiots.//

Armchair, have a look at your own link. What comes after news.com.au bit, Arcmchair? Oh yes, it's /entertainment, which means that this story is in the category of entertainment 'news'.

Everybody knows entertainment 'news' isn't real news, just pointless gossip. If you're looking in the entertainment section of news websites for proper news, then yes, you're an idiot.

Toni, I am disappointed that you would not believe the gossip column in one of Rupert's rags, its more truthful that the News news.
Next thing you know, you'll be saying this weeks exclusive in 'Shocker' magazine is untrue. An in the know Liberal Party insider told Fanny Scoop from 'Shocker' that the government has been taken over by far right space aliens extremists and they intend to install a robotic clone called Pete Dud to replace poor old Money Bags Malcolm. If its in 'Shocker' you better believe it!

Turnbull did walk his green mile, our media is thriving on it too, but as it turned out that walk was only a test to see no mistake takes place on the not very far away true execution, next week? next month? the shop window dressing dummy about to replace him will not be around long

As wildly reported, and egged on by Murdoch's gutter press, Money Bags called a spill, Dud Dutton threw his beanie into the ring, so did Turnball's. Loan behold, Turnball's came out on top 48-35. What a united party, Turnball's only has 35 enemies within. Plus all the Nationals!
This government is a joke!

BTW, Duds moved to the back bench, sitting right next to the Mad Monk, Corny Banana, Barnyard etc etc.

Praise the lord! Now let's hope he doesn't do an Abbott and that's the last we hear from him. Not holding my breath, mind you. I'm sure the Mad Monk and the Killer Potato are hatching nefarious plans as we speak.

I don't know what went wrong. Dud counted up the votes in his office before the meeting. He named one vote for every finger, declaring; "There's 13 votes!" then he took off his shoes and socks and counted one vote for every toe; "That's another 23 for me!...13 plus 23, yes 47 vote for The Devine One!" Being good at arithmetic Dud thinks he should be PM and Treasurer combined. What went wrong?
The Mad Monk did offer poor Pete a consoling drink of holy water, vintage 1923, from his personal stock afterwards. With shouts of "We'll get him next time!" the pair of old disciples retired to the chapel for some personal flagellation, and a bit more plotting.
