Reference :- Our Prime Minister is on the campaign trail .

Reference :- You don't have to be corrupt to win preselection  for an LNP seat . But it helps . 

Dear Mr Morrison sir , 

This sure is a tough election you are confronting .  However , since you are an experienced marketer , we feel you must be in your element . Let's face it , running things is not your strong suit , but sales pitches are right up your proverbial alley . 

( Ken junior  just said that he thinks  your proverbial alley is more of a cul -de -sac , whatever that means .  )

Here at the Sky Reply , the lads expressed their surprise when they heard that you had asked  the former Premier of NSW , Gladys Berejiklian , to stand for the LNP in the seat of Warringah . 

" Gladys is under investigation for corruption. ",   Gabbo said . 

 " She won't have  time to campaign while dealing with her legal nightmares . " , Monte  said . 

"  Are you allowed to run for office while under investigation for corruption ? " ,  Ken junior said 

But Mr Morrison , sir , they have obviously missed the point . 

 I reckon it is a great idea to run somebody who already stands accused  of corruption . It means  you need not fear that an investigation will suddenly appear from left field and dominate the front pages of the tabloids at an inopportune moment . There has been too much of that lately .  Better the devil you know , and by the time they set up the polling booths the Gladys affair will be as stale as this year's Christmas cake . 

Furthermore , she would be a great ally in your battle against that Independent Commission Against Corruption mob .  Obviously there are already plenty of LNP politicians who would soil themselves if they thought an ICAC had access to their filing cabinet , but having one more with much to lose would still be a big help .   And it's a battle you must win .  Just think of the money an ICAC will cost if it goes ahead .  And if it does , make sure you have pushed through that bill which provides taxpayer funding for politician's legal fees well ahead of time .  It is sure to keep a few mouths shut .  I mean , what sort of a democracy do we have  if politicians can't bankrupt whistleblowers in court without putting their own spondula on the line ?

Your comrade , Ken .  

P.S.   Ken junior recently scored a few boxes of black felt pens in a job lot at an auction where he bought some office supplies .  They are surplus to requirements , so he if happy to donate them to a worthy cause .  You obviously need a plentiful supply for redacting  documents requested under the Freedom of Information Act . If you let us know a mailing address he will forward them .  You will have to pay the postage on delivery .  We are a bit short of funds here at the Sky Reply , but understand you are well cashed up down there in Canberra .
