Most Tom Cats Have Large Gonades

Many Australians are unaware of the great traditions and history of the Australian Labour Party (ALP), and many are particularly unaware of the fact that the Australian Workers Union (AWU) proudly spawned and gave birth to the ALP. This was an awkward fact for Kevin Rudd when he was Prime Minister, and that one that he very much disliked. Kevin like BA Santamaria before him would have happily change the ALP into a Christian Democrat Party in a heartbeat if he could have. And horror of horrors, when conservative low flyer Tony Abbott points his bony finger, quivering with rage, and says accusingly, the spittle flying from his thin, bloodless lips “ THE ALP ARE IN THE GRIP OF THE TRADE UNIONS”, it’s pretty much the same as saying “Gee, hasn’t your tomcat got enormous ball”? And he is of course absolutely correct, you’re tom cat does indeed have enormous balls, that’s because he is in fact a Tom Cat, and of course as many already know, large balls and tom cats are synonymous with one another. Just as are the AWU and the ALP. And though the ALP has occasionally lost its way from time to time and ending up down in the cafĂ© precinct sipping lattes and listening to funky latin music, it still remains the party of working people. And while the ground has shifted somewhat regarding its original constituency, the ALP is still technically the representative party of the wage earner. So a word to Comrade Kevin! If you’re ever going to stay in the ALP, it’ll be back to the warm fraternal embrace of the great unwashed workers and AWU members down in the front bar of the Fettlers Arms Hotel for you, where you'll sing drunken renditions of the Socialist Nationale with your working brothers. Oh and there’ll be no more sneaking off down to St Kilda Rd to sip lattes with the Bohemians or the Greens either.
