You are supposed to swear for effect, otherwise you just come across as crass and revolting.

So Dave met with Andrew Charlton by chance in Sydney today. The universe works in mysterious ways!

Labor’s digital minister Andrew Charlton sold his ‘consultancy’ business to Accenture in 2020 for 35 million, almost all of the price was for ‘goodwill’. He then worked for Accenture for a year before becoming the Labor MP for the then safe seat of Parramatta. Accenture get so many massive taxpayer funded contracts, like almost 100 million they got for the disastrous BOM website. That didn’t slow down further Govt contracts for Accenture. Now Qantas sack 850 workers and sling Accenture a vast sum to handle the jobs from India. We are so let down by our leaders.

Oliver Curtis (and his father Nick) went to a Catholic school. It’s in the first sentence.

@MarkDiStef Yet another Jew story and they got what they deserved. The real query is how supposedly "smart" Anglos got caught up in the bullshit. It was so obviously a joke. Yes there is momentum ... and then there is greedy stupidity.
