You don’t get any points for being able to take a joke
Its funny because of how wrong it is.
Being Aboriginal myself I find this video absolutely hilarious!! Lol!! Absolute master of a comedian!! 💯 😂😂😂
100% accurate representation of how Australian government (still) works.
This guy is Australia's wittiest comedian. He is just below Python and equivalent to "Yes Prime Minister" and "The Office"
Python is over rated, it's all pretty tame.
Shaun’s underrated, he should of been picked up by commercial tv Australia.

Agree Micallef is a genius.

Clearly judging by the comments, this skit could reliably be used in intelligence testing.
This may be a ‘joke’ but the truth is ATSIC was disbanded because of corruption.
@ozzmanzz careful now we know these days that saying what you actually think is frowned upon. Better that you just regurgitate the “safe” opinions of the vocal minority.
So when are they disbanding the Australian Government?
@@michaelhehir8116Didn't stop you. Why would it be frowned upon? What are you implying?
@@Simmo_AU Maybe. Spell it out. What are you implying? I want to give you the opportunity to speak before I jump to any conclusions.
It's not true that ATSIC was abolished due to corruption. Howard's argument for abolishing it was that it wasn't working.
$100 000 for a paper clip seems about right, these days.
Yes but they have to be the fancy plastic coated coloured ones.

Prob more a skit on how cooked The Liberal Party is.
like the time Tony Abbot only had 1 women in his cabinet and then decided he would be a good choice as minister for women?
The fact that people think women need their own minister is hilarious... what rights exist in Australia for men but not women?
I'll wait

You're allowed to make fun of white people, just don't do it the other way.
You can make fun of anyone if you're witty enough. My advice to you is to stay out of comedy.
Atsic was dodgy
