So the election campaign ran for "nine years". Not only was Mr John Clarke a comedy great, it seems that he was a political Nostradamus as well. He and Bryan Dawe are much missed from our screens
It is messed up, but nowhere is as fucked up as the US. Australia was trying to catch up mind you; then boom the Yanks play their Trump card and take fucked upness to levels a misbegotten love child of George W. Bush and Tony Abbott could not even dare to dream of in their most diabolically imbecilic reveries. Umerica. #1.
+TheOneWhoMightBe our electoral system is far better, harder to disenfranchise people, less power in the executive etc, so I would say we are safe for quite some time.
I love these, but I feel like the gameshow format is starting to get a bit tired. I love the ones where you satirize an executive or economic adviser while still being informative with fast-paced dialogue. Just my two cents, you guys are obviously still hilarious.
I'm afraid that Australians still haven't adapted to the concept that inflation eroded the purchasing power of the two cent piece - that iis why they no longer exist. Treasury and the Reserve Bank claim they were withdrawn from circulation. Be afraid. No figure of speech is safe anymore.
1c and 2c have been removed from circulation and are no longer legal tender. This was done by Keating so that there would be less Aussie dollars in circulation, therefore it is worth more (because there is less of it).
Jumping on something old here, but no, MadMikeAU. The 1c and 2c coins are still legal tender, they just aren't minted anymore. They also did not make up a meaningful fraction of the currency in circulation before they stopped being minted. I've only got vague ideas as to why, but the Australian government generally doesn't remove anything from being legal tender, regardless of how long ago it was minted or printed. Even Australian Pounds are still legal tender.
I can't stop watching these...only way to work through the sadness. Truly a legend John, R.I.P
How refreshing to watch again...and again years later! Always evokes giggles! Shear brilliance of writing and execution.
abso fukn lutely.
"How do these positions address the major issues facing Australia?"
"They don't."
"Correct."
On point, as always.
its scary how on point this is
"Horas"
I knew "Cope" was coming along as soon as I heard that.
Why is Peter Dutton is a more relevant question than ever
The Honourable John Clark minister for incompetence and in-continence. Still better than 99% of Australian politicians. And a funny bugger to boot.
"How long is the current election campaign?"
"9 years."
👍
I just love these two gentlemen,Brilliant! Always make my day Wish more of them is put out on national tele
Still applicable in April 2022. Brilliant.

"They don't"
"Why is Peter Dutton?" Brilliant.
lol
Dumbo Dutton
A touch of class these two gentlemen in an otherwise very ragged and tawdry political arena.
Ah, how things have changed.
Wait, let me read that again...
Ah, how have things changed?
... had a big lunch. Sometimes I'm just waiting for the end line. too good.
its dat boi clark & dawe wats up
"Good lord, I've lost all track of time" - as always they say what we're thinking :D
Something tells me all financial advisors does no maths and relies on horris scope
Horacescope! So true when it comes to future telling
Awesome as always :)
Malcolm Abbott - nail on head !
As soon as he said his name was Horace, I knew his surname would be Cope. Heh.
I have so many subscriptions I'm never able to notice when Clarke & Dawe upload anything!
TH-cam is broken and I don't know how to fix it.
Come back home to New Zealand John, we need you, desperately.
RIP JOHN CLARKE
Mr. Horoscope.
2023 and it's still, "why is Peter Dutton?"
His party won't let him do the things he's denying he wants to bring in.
That's Australian politics
Someone send this to Johnny Depp😂😂😂
jolly good...
When you watch these you find out that Down under is just as messed up as in the states.

Just about. Although we don't have Trump running here, so that's good news for us. :)
I do feel sorry for my friends in the States.
Creeping Corporatocracy in Australia has a more pleasant face, but the end goal is the same, yes.

Our media diversity could do with some improvement thought.
Australia should be run by using facts.. not politics!
Horace Cope 😂

CORRECT!
