This is a greatly expanded, updated new edition of Mungo's 1994 book of political anecdotes. He has trawled the work of our leading political observers to collect the gems, spiced the dish with his own wit, and produced an alternative political history of Australia, a lot funnier than the other one. 'Mungo has selected well. There is something for everybody-those addicted to politics, those seeking an insight into the Australian ethos and psyche, and those who just want a good laugh.' Barry CohenExtract: When Queensland police minister Russ Hinze, an advocate of castration for sex offenders, was asked on television what he'd do if the wrong man was punished, he displayed the can-do approach of the 1970s. 'We'd just sew him on a bigger and better one!'
