Where the body politic gets a dose of the clap
Welcome to The Big Con, an evening organised by the small think tank the Centre for Non-Partisan Studies (formerly Wittenoom Asbestos p/l) and dedicated to the free and independent discussion of ideas such as the absolute virtue of free markets, war and death. The organisers of The Big Con have brought together all the big guns from Alan Jones to the PM, and Keith Windschuttle to Amanda Vanstone, the house moderate, with others such as Philip Ruddock and Monsignor Tony Abbott beamed in via satellite. Rumours that they are all impersonated by Mr Max Gillies from a script by Guy Rundle, with songs by rising star of savagery Mr Eddie Perfect are just the usual sort of elitist, latte quaffing chardonnay sipping disinformation put out by the narcissistic self-regarding new class who run all our media outlets and sell drugs to our kids.

If you don’t know whether to laugh or cry about a country where public life and debate is run by the think tank commanders, why not take the first option and bring the troops along to The Big Con? It’s the perfect evening to vent the spleen rather than the pancreas.
