Thanks Sylvia! It definitely took some time to write, I was making edits throughout the week as new, news reports came in. I only do satire once a week now, so I figured I might as well put some effort into it!
Sheer brilliance! ❤️ One of your very best - thoroughly enjoyed the read, even if left even more disturbed by the current of truth that ran within the satirical musings.
Brilliant! Good satire is based in intelligence, wit, a willingness to expose pretension and hypocrisy and a sense of humour. You nailed this and have written a more informative political commentary than Labour's entire PR arm at Stuffed.
Can’t wait for the scene with the security at Pak n Save unloading the unpaid-for trolleys into the Ford Rangers. The innocent entitlement on the faces should be worth the price of admission.
That was a perfect, and perfectly entertaining, piece to start the long weekend.
Reads like it was fun to write too.
Fabulous !

I heard that Lee sent Debbie to interview Karen Chhour for character development and insights to state care. As it turns out: Karen IS Māori enough.
We need this movie. Lovely piece MK. Saturday morning treat 👏
Surely a cameo role for Chris Hipkins too. Perhaps as a traffic warden intimidated by Jake the bikie.

Awesome, spoilt for choice when choosing the cast
Academy Award winner to be sure.
Genius! Hard to top for a genuine laugh-out-loud.
Cheers, Mike!
Brilliant Matua!
👏🏻👏🏻 So good Matua! 😂🤣 A winner for sure - Love your work!
Ah Matua, I am busy picking myself up from the floor.
Your humour has me in stitches, what a good laughing fit I just experienced.
Love your writing, keep on doing what you are doing.
Haha, I chipped away at this one all last week - it was fun to write!

classic. Keep it coming.
Please, please, please tell me that no-one has had to have this explained as satire?

To be fair, it was likely a “$0 week” at PnS.
What a great read to kick off my weekend MK. Uncle Bussie indeed!! Tu meke! Keep them coming please...
Love the satire. Nothing enrages ideologues and extremists than being made fun of. Keep it up.
