Finally, some coherent explanations of Australian politics! It all makes sense if it's HARRY POTTER!

I am in awe of blamebrampton. She has manged to render Australian politics in an almost intelligible and utterly hilarious fashion.

Presenting blamebrampton's Australian politics: a Harry Potter primer

Now with Dramatis Personae from Australian Politics: a Harry Potter Primer

I was in love from  'In New South Wales, a state that has all the organisational sophistication of a rabid Hungarian Horntail in heat ...'

Yes! That is my state government to a T!

When reading this excellent and hilarious posts, keep blamebrampton's comment in mind ... 

Aussie politics do make sense if you remember that everyone
* knows everyone else,
* may well be drunk, and
* knows that there will be a heatwave before any kind of revolution can be organised anyway, so it doesn't matter what you do, as long as there is still ice and beer. (Not ice IN the beer, of course!)

*gurgles* Yes, this is all very true. And I suspect I will be in dire need of alcohol on election day ... stupid alcohol intolerance.
