dolorosa_12This is a musical interlude to interrupt the flood of fandom meme content that I've been posting recently.
Australia's political response to the pandemic has been as abysmal as its response to the terrible bushfires in the summer, which is not surprising, given the dreadful Prime Minister and government currently in charge. I have to admit, however, that I was shocked at the sheer level of bumbling, wilful incompetence in both instances.
One positive result of all that incompetence, however, is this song and video (with both lyrics and visuals packed with allusions to specific instances of shambolic, vindictive government incompetence), a collaboration between Briggs and Tim Minchin, which takes the government to task with exquisite and deserved brutality. I love it.
Even the Ruby Princess had a captain, indeed.
