Hey guys its me Kevin Rudd. Remember that $900 I lent you last year?

Yeah I lost my job and I'm gonna need that back.....

[libsti]

ill go halves with you kev,im not working either now.

[smythie]

yeah, I don't think Kev is going to need that considering his package as an ex PM entitles him to $120k in cash pa plus a bunch of other perks such as 4 office staff and a gold card for business class flights. Not too considering his time at the top

I wonder what his employability factor is.

and lets not underestimate his wife's wealth..

$58 Million apparently she is worth in her own entirety and thats no BS

[moggy]

According to the paper the other day she sold the Aus part of her business for A$130M when Krud won the election because of perceived conflict of interests (her company had government contracts worth A$58M a year) She still retains UK companies.

Kevin the Rooster

Trevor the farmer was in the fertilised egg business. He had several hundred young layers (hens), called 'pullets' and eight or ten roosters, to fertilise the pullets' eggs.

Trevor kept records and any rooster that didn't perform went into the soup pot and was replaced. That took an awful lot of his time so he bought a set of tiny bells and attached them to his roosters. Each bell had a different tone so Trevor could tell from a distance, which rooster was performing. Now he could sit on the porch and fill out an efficiency report simply by listening to the bells.

The farmer's favourite rooster was Kevin, and a very fine specimen he was too, but on this particular morning Trevor noticed Kevin's bell hadn't rung at all!

Trevor went to investigate.

The other roosters were chasing pullets, bells-a-ringing. The pullets, hearing the roosters coming, would run for cover but to farmer Trevor's amazement, Kevin had his bell in his beak, so it couldn't ring. He'd sneak up on a pullet, do his job and walk on to the next one.

Trevor was so proud of Kevin, he entered him into the Brisbane Exhibition and Kevin became an overnight sensation among the judges.

The Result? The judges not only awarded Kevin the No Bell Piece Prize but they also awarded him the Pulletsurprise as well.

Clearly Kevin was a politician in the making: Who else but a politician could figure out how to win two of the most highly coveted awards on our planet by being the best at sneaking up on the populace and screwing them when they weren't paying attention.

Was there a handout last year?
