Anyone out there as grateful as your ranter-in-residence that smellavision never became a feature of our TVs?

If such technology had been perfected, while it might have been great for a report on Canberra Floriade or the Toowoomba Carnival of Flowers, you might have had to leave the room and turn up the ceiling fans for a while as Anthony Albanese quietly shit himself during the Seven Network leaders debate the other night as he struggled to frame just the Right words to convey how he feels about welcomes to country without losing an election race with the last hurdle in sight.

Let me paraphrase his comments: I don’t, sort of, mind it as an idea but, really, it’s a decision of others to make if any tribute to the 60,000 years of darkie dreamtime takes place!

Hopefully  the PM was wearing extra-strength Kimbies for that response but what do his comments on WTC, rightly identified by Sarah Ferguson on 7.30 last night as rather wishy-washy, actually tell us?

That while Opposition Leader Peter Dutton used the debate to throw large chunks of red meat to this nation’s racists – and has double/tripled down ever since by declaring that welcome to country doesn’t belong at an Anzac Day dawn service (his latest  flip-flop) or on a Qantas flight landing back home or just about anywhere else for that matter – Albanese’s muddled messaging clearly shows he is shit-scared about just how many racists live among the Australian population.

And that these brain-dead morons really believe that poor Jane Hume has suffered through countless meetings where a dozen people around the table have all been forced to recognise who once owned the place and who clearly want it back and had to provide proof that they are learning the didgeridoo or at the very least could smoke the room out by rubbing a few sticks together.

And that at no time that I can recall, Albanese has defended welcomes to country as a really nice idea that harmlessly honours the amazing history of our First Nations people as the oldest surviving culture on earth and how mobs treated other mobs visiting their patch of paradise, instead of trying his best to deflect blame to others for letting such welcomes to take place.

And that’s rather sad, isn’t it, regardless of how badly he got burnt over the Voice referendum?
