Political thought for the day

My greatly missed Australian Uncle used to quote this a lot. It sums up pretty well how I feel about right wing politicians at the moment (and I'm quite happy to be identified as a pig)

"One evening last October, when I was far from sober
And dragging home a load with manly pride
My feet began to stutter and I fell down in the gutter
And a pig came up and parked right by my side

Then I mumbled, "It's fair weather when good comrades get together"
Till a lady passing by was heard to say,
"You can tell a man that boozes by the playmates that he chooses"
Then the pig got up and slowly walked away."
