Watching our politicians flap around like beached orcas on a hot summer's day, you've got to wonder: do they actually think we're this stupid? The housing crisis is eating us alive, the health system is held together with masking tape and hope, and instead of any real action we get slogan after slogan after empty promise. Every time someone suggests a radical fix – like actually taxing the wealth hoarders or building state houses like it's the 50s – you can hear the collective sphincter tighten in parliament. It's not that they can't fix it. They just won't. Because it might ruffle the wrong feathers. Meanwhile, the rest of us are supposed to just... cop it? Nah mate. Wake up. This isn't governance, it's cosplay.
