NSW Premier Dominic Perrottet has copped criticism and apologised for wearing a Nazi uniform to a party 30 years ago when he was 21. The Bug took to the streets to test public reaction to the news.

Dolph Fitler, 46, biotechnology advocate, Sydney: “When I was a boy in Brazil my septuplet brothers and I would often play dress-ups. Nichts …. I mean, nothing wrong with it, I say.”

Dick Taitor, 133, retired politician, visiting from Argentina: “From my experience in politics many years ago I think the Premier has done himself no harm at all, given the dominance of the far right in today’s Lebensraum Par….. I mean, Liberal Party.”

Ade Ollphitler, 46, biotechnology advocate, London: “When I was a boy in Brazil my septuplet brothers and I would often play dress-ups. Nothing wrong with it, I say.”

Elliott David, 52, transport consultant, Sydney: “It’s a huge embarrassment for the Premier. I hope…. I mean, I suspect he is very angry and upset and very eager to find out who tipped off the media to the story just weeks before a critical election.”

Dee Phewrer, 46, biotechnology advocate, Washington DC: “When I was a boy in Brazil – before I transitioned – my septuplet brothers and I would often play dress-ups. Nothing wrong with it, I say.”

Harry Prince, 38, author, California: “The Premier is totally blameless. I suspect the Premier’s brother and sister-in-law encouraged him to do it.”

Willie Windsor, 40, heir stylist, London: “People who do these sorts of things always turn out to be absolute cunts. I say he should resign or be sacked. Just shut up and fuck off.”
