I’m sick today. Wild fever dreams over night.

Anyway, this seems to be the stupid little gaffe that will not die. My mate Fergus Ryan at Business Spectator has, I think, the best take on it.

Clive Palmer’s remarkably unhinged outburst on the ABC’s Q&A program on Monday night was offensive in the extreme but the government’s reaction to it has made Australia look like a bunch of nervous nellies.

You may have seen that I will not be doing cartoons for Crikey anymore, as they have taken on Department of Australia for their satire needs.

I will start pitching to other places soon, but I think I’m just taking a rest this week, I may post other cartoons here this week (especially as I’ll probably also be off work tomorrow).

Onward and upward.
