When it comes down to it, ten billion quid to build the sheep a few Covered Outdoor Learning Areas out beyond the black stump wasn’t a bad price for (up to) three years of stable government (terms and conditions apply – fine print TBA).

Viewing this on a mobile and the john Howard ad is on top of the right of the cartoon, so it looks like it’s Howard offering katter 10 billion. Oh the irony
