Political Correctness Eradication? please explain

Political Correctness Eradication? please explain

Wayne Mapp needs to explain to taxpayers what he will be doing in his new role as National's spokesperson for Political Correctness Eradication, Steve Maharey said today.

"Dr Mapp needs to explain what his new job involves so that the public knows what he's on about," Steve Maharey. " What tools will he use? What proportion of time will he spend on this job at the taxpayers expense?

"Will he be releasing an eradication policy? Will he ask questions in the house? Does National intend to establish a new bureaucracy to administer his portfolio responsibilities?

"Dr Mapp has been given a light portfolio load apart from this new role. We can only assume he will be spending a substantial part of his time on this job."
