I fear that you underestimate the willfulness of our silly stuck-up twat of a LNP Premier, who no doubt still plays tennis poorly. Ah the nostalgia. Sepia-shrouded memories of playing pennants on Saturdays with Collin Barnett. On the same team no less. This could be the only time in history when a self confessed radical lefty played on the same team as a pillar of the far right. Why, you might ask, did these two particles not annihilate each other in a puff  of self-inflicted oxymoronity, as particles of matter and antimatter are wont to do? The answer lies in the bin with the other great mysteries of life which must be pondered independently at one's own expense and on one's time.
