Government's Brain Explosion

[Matilda]

This morning, at 9.17 a.m., it was announced in Canberra that tomorrow, members of the newly-christened Australian Border Force would be boarding public transport in Melbourne's CBD to check the IDs and visas of people going about their business

Since white Australians don't normally have visas, we assume the intended targets were non-white people, most likely those who looked Middle Eastern.

"Officers will be positioned at various locations around the city and will speak "with any individual we cross paths with", ABF regional commander for Victoria and Tasmania Don Smith said in a statement."

There followed an outburst on social media, with #Operation Fortitude (as it was cutely named) quickly trending.

Then came this:

Took just a few hours for demonstrators to gather in Melbourne's Flinders Street (the main street) and block traffic, waving signs against this latest Abbott brain explosion.

And now, it seems, the government is having a rethink. Surprise – Australia isn't entirely made up of ugly racist xenophobes after all. It didn't go down too well for Abbott today.

What a bunch of pathetic Nazi wannabees, little boys trying to play in a grown-ups' world, waving their toy guns and trying to intimidate innocent people. The brainwave, no doubt, of Peter Dutton, aka the Talking Potato, Minister for Immigration. (And Border Control - let's not forget Border Control). Perfect job for an ex-cop.

So much for Operation Fuckup. These people get more juvenile and more desperate and ugly by the day.
