The Sideshow Ep. 22: monologue material

Family First has dumped candidate Andrew Quah after photos of him flashing in the mirror were emailed around the country. He’s furious – those photos were only intended to be circulated amongst party members…

Andrew Quah, a Family First candidate, has been dumped after photos of him “parading his private parts” were emailed around the country. He claims he was just showing the public his Honorable Member. / his Little Johnny.

Andrew said that he “might have been drunk off my face” – or as it’s known now, the “Rudd defense”.

Andrew Quah says that his “political enemies might have drugged me.” Because Family First is such a threat to the major parties…

He’s saying that his “political enemies” must have drugged him and taken the pictures themselves to discredit him. But if his enemies wanted to discredit him, surely it would be enough to just say that he’s a member of Family First…

Andrew Quah said he thought it was possible he’d posed for the photos. “I might have been drunk off my face or my political enemies might have drugged me.” Sure. His political enemies INSIDE HIS HEAD.

One pic shows him exposing his special bits as he takes a photo of himself in the mirror, but Andy says, “That’s not my penis. That’s a picture of Mr Howard.”

He’s also admitted to looking at porn websites in the past 2 weeks. It’s amazing what you get when you type in “Family First”… / He’d accidentally typed in “Family Fist”…

He’s also admitted to downloading porn over the last two weeks. Or as he calls it, researching family impact statements.

What a scandal! Just 22 years old – far too young to be a member of Family First!

Personally, I think anyone running for Family First should have a family first.

He’s started a new party: Pornography First. To be honest, he never really like that “Family” part.

“Those porn stars are my family!”

It was an understandable mistake; he was just trying to advance his career with US Republicans.

A Family First spokeswoman said Quah had been expelled because, “He does not share the party’s values.” After all, Quah’s Facebook page states his religion is “Conservative Atheism”, which does seem at odds with Family First’s usual “Extreme Christianity”.

Quah admitted downloading porn despite Family First’s policy of blocking all porn on the internet. Actually, Quah was hoping he might get the job. / Quah says he was just seeing exactly what they were going to ban.

A Family First spokeswoman said Quah had been expelled because, “He does not share the party’s values.” Apparently Kevin Rudd’s taken him under his wing…

It’s a shame, as Quah’s nomination had proven that Family First wasn’t entirely made up of white Christians with big cocks.

Scandal in London, after it was revealed 2 men had been arrested for trying to blackmail a member of the Royal Family over a video which they suggested showed the royal engaged in oral sex. We can’t say who it is, but let’s just say she’s not called the Titular Head for nothing…

It’s scandalous enough that the royal was caught engaging in oral sex – but with a corgi?

The men demanded £50,000 not to publicise the tape, although Prince Harry reckons it’s gotta be worth more than that, she was a right hottie.

The men also claimed to have evidence that the royal had supplied an aide with cocaine – although Prince Charles has stepped in, claiming it was actually Lady Di’s ashes.

Of course, royals don’t have oral sex – they dress up as French maids and whip each other with corgi tails.

The video apparently contains footage of an aide giving the royal oral sex and snorting cocaine. And fair enough, drugs help to ease the pain of grovelling 24 hours a day.

Who could it be? Not Wills, he’s got that lovely Kate Middleton. And Harry, he must have chicks on call. And Charles has got that lovely Camilla… ah.

This is the first time in more than 100 years that a member of the Royal Family has been the victim of blackmail. And these days it’s considered uncouth to just say “Off with their heads!”

This is the first time in more than 100 years that a member of the Royal Family has been the victim of blackmail. Not since Victoria was blackmailed by a man with a portrait of her in a ruffled petticoat. The scandal!

This is the first time in more than 100 years that a member of the Royal Family has been the victim of blackmail. The last time was when Princess Gwenyth accidentally flashed the wheels of her velocipede.

ANNOUNCEMENTS

An announcement from Big Brother: it’s time to go… Gretel Killeen!

Gretel Killeen has been dumped by Big Brother and replaced by Kyle & Jackie O – apparently the producers wanted to make the show even more obnoxious and infantile.

We were going to have Gretel Killeen on the show tonight, but she’s been replaced by Kyle & Jackie O, and there’s no way we were having those useless fucks on.

Labor, the Greens and the Democrats are ganging up on the government to regain control of the Senate – although, to be accurate, it was originally just the Greens and Labor, until Lynne Allison came running up saying, “Hey, don’t forget me!”

Labor, the Greens and the Democrats are ganging up on the government to regain control of the Senate. Not only have they released an ad together, and done preference deals, they’re also sneaking up on John Howard from different directions and saying “Boo!” Very disconcerting.

The British entrant in Miss World says she was told to pack on the kilos if she wanted to impress the judges. Fair enough too – “Miss World” should be at least globe-shaped, if not covered in continents and seas. / if not being orbited.

The organisers of Miss World are said to be looking for girls to be more voluptuous, rather than “stick thin”. Miss Stick Insect has objected: “This is my optimal build!”
