That humourless gimp Phil Ruddock was last week talking up the Liberals’ capacity for responding to a terrorist incident:
[Ruddock] launched a veiled attack on the Labor party’s ability to respond to a major terrorist attack if it won government. The Coalition government had developed relationships with agencies and was well practised in how to respond to a major catastrophe, Mr Ruddock told reporters.
Nothing too unusual; it’s the sort of thing you’d expect him to say in an election campaign. But do you remember those Federal Police “be alert not alarmed” TV ads? Up until the end of last week I don’t think I’d seen one for ages, probably several months. Since last Friday I’ve seen three of the suckers, two of them in prime time.
Just a coincidence, I’m sure.
