Maybe I love barbecues too much - perhaps even as much as this person, but I find even the intent to stop a barbecue to be so heinous, so utterly nihilistically unAustralian that if the sedition laws were truly meant to stop terrorists from destroying our way of life, the slightest mention of perpetrating such an act would be met with instant and permanent incarceration in an Abu Ghraib-type facility which would have tongs and live coals and naked human pyramids like normal barbecues, but never an actual barbecue. That would teach them.
Anyway, here’s a chance for our PM to atone for his sins and start a barbecue for a change. Sure, it would involve him smelling like mothballs and being set on fire, but if there were ever to be an eau de John Howard, I strongly suspect it would contain at least a hint of mothball and being set on fire was good enough for Joan of Arc and she never ran around advocating the stopping of barbecues and she wasn’t even Australian.
