Something completely different

As a break from all the photos and extended captions, here's a quote from the Family First Party's Steve Fielding, reacting to the budget just brought down by the Federal Government here in Australia. It appeared in the weekend newspaper under the heading "Warning: Mixed Metaphors Ahead".

This is a budget of broken dreams. It amazes me that the Rudd government can implore Australians to knuckle down and do it tough and then have the gall to continue sticking their own snouts in the trough of perks paid for by hardworking Australians. It is a real smack in the face to all Australians who are struggling to stay afloat when they see politicians feathering their own nest.
