Penguin MP Breaks Wind -er Silence on Bush "Stiffing"

"This is extremely sordid. George Wobblebottom Bush has an obsession with Saddamy Hussein 'stiffing' the world over (...) weapons inspections.

“I am sure that lesbian separatists all over the world will be smirking triumphantly at the thought that an unmitigated tragedy could be linked to the two gentlemen in questions anxieties about their respective 'little friends' but I doubt whether anyone else will be."

"Should New Zealand really have connections with a world leader who is insecure for such a specious reason...?" Tripitaka Adelie-Penguin, Corrective MP for the Ross Dependency said in Parliament today.

Ms.Adelie-Penguin is the only survivor of a tragic bombardment of the Our Lady of Misery Convent with images of scantily clad go go men which caused massive cardial infarctions in the former SM nuns who ran the organisation for what seemed like an eternity.

At this week’s Chinese New Year celebrations, PM Jacinda Ardern was resolutely upbeat that business with China would soon bounce back to normal – better than ever, even - once the coronavirus epidemic has been brought under control. To Ardern, the adversity has only accentuated just how close we are to Beijing Nothing wrong with being upbeat, if it can calm the nerves and turn business sentiment into a self-fulfilling prophecy. The problems begin when the optimism detaches itself from reality. What has been very odd so far about the coronavirus episode is that global share markets – normally spooked by mere sneezes or sniffles in the world’s major economies - have continued to be fairly positive, even as the epidemic has unfolded...
