Tampa Feedback

Appreciate the satire about the Tampa.

Apart from that it's funny but I find myself for the first time in my life backing the Libs on the issue as long as they make sure the bastards don't get in.

After nearly 50 years in the ALP why is this? Am I becoming more conservative in my old age as I have been told would happen since I was a kid?

Keep up the satire but don't let it cloud your judgement.
