He’s puzzled by Dr.Seuss Go Dog Go...

Drug Testing of Politicians may be bigger than Dual Citizenship debacle it is said? Is that possible? LNP Federal Member for Wide Bay wanted alcohol testing of politicians before the May 18 Election. Retained his pre-selection. LNP would have been defeated if ex-cop dropped.😛

Perhaps start by Drug testing MP's ScoMo, they are a shifty lot, especially on the Government benches.

How about politician drug testing!

Drug testing the Poor is a Distraction. IT’S THE ECONOMY STUPID

I would support this IF all Government ministers and Civil Servants underwent the same test...

So don't give druggies my money, yeap, i'm ok with that

they should start with the politicians if its such a great idea.

Im all for weekly drugs testing of every member of the houses of parliament. They are the ones whose decisions could effect tens of millions of people. It's vital we know if they are taking cocaine,amphetamines or other substances that could stop them making rational decisions.

Rich, priviliged, old white man genuinely in shock that suggestion to put less fortunate members of society under public scrutiny for no reason isn't welcomed with more enthusiasm.

Let's pilot this one in the House of Commons then.

Let's drug and alcohol test him everyday before he goes to work.

That in itself shows what an isolated bubble he now finds himself in. To not even be able to see the other side of the argument is outrageous

Scott Morrison is confused by his own shadow when he wakes in the morning, he is also confused as to why he is still in mortal form.
