"The Communist Revolutionary Action Party extends solidarity to our oppressed worker sisters and brothers who are opposing the Australian Broadcasting Corporation!!! We refer to our comrades in the Bananas in Pyjamas childrens television programme," said CRAP Chief Comrade Mervyn A.R.X. Trotweiler today.

Chief Comrade Trotweiler said the Child Comrades Division of CRAP had made up a solidarity song for their yellow fruity comrades which went something like:

"Bananas in Pyjamas We know they are on strike
Bananas in Pyjamas They're fighting for their rights
Bananas in Pyjamas Go hang the ABC
We sing this song in support of solidarity!!!"
