Our backwards-looking, intellectually stunted prime minister, the Hon Tony Abbott MP, was driving through Canberra when he spotted some high school students on a school trip to the nation’s capital, and, on a whim and to his credit, decided to pull over and make himself available to them.
In my happiest fantasies I could not have wished worse luck upon him. The students were from the Newtown High School of the Performing Arts — creative, open-minded, well-informed kids from one of Australia’s (very few) urban left strongholds. God bless every one of these brats.
EDIT: I wanted to mention that my very favourite moment in this video is, “Let’s have a bloke’s question.” Tony Abbott is so intimidated by women, girls even, that even in this situation he reflexively seeks refuge amongst ‘the boys’.
