Apolitical? Running the Country?

Ha!

“Apolitical 

public servants” are keeping

 “the country running”?* 

This must be a joke

(of sorts) on Gillard, with some

rather rude punning.†

*  see Phillip Coorey’s “Angry mobs ready to face off as MPs take leave of trouble”, wherein he writes, “The only people who risk being inconvenienced [by the ‘Convoy of No Confidence’] are those who live in Canberra – the apolitical public servants who keep the country running [...].”  See also “On His Knees”, by Prof. Bunyip.

†  i.e., suggesting that the PM is running again.
