   Election night - ALP romp into power with a majority
Week 1 - few weeks of mad celebrations & piddling in each others pockets

Week 3 - dark financial clouds on the horizon. All the "spend, spend" talks go MIA

Week 4 - Coalition "black holes" being discussed everywhere

Week 12 - Pandemic ramps up again. Sigh of relief - focus away from their lack of activity. Elbow cops his second dose'

Week 16 - Boats start lining up

Week 20 - The hand maidens cant agree on anything. Just a matter of time before Elbow throws in the towel

Week 52 - Inflation running at 10% - Interest rates just increased for the 6th time

Week 53 - Elbow calls it quits. Tanya given the job - she knocks it back. Penny steps up with Grace as her off-sider

Week 60 - Real wages have dropped a further 8% since Election. Even the Unions are getting out of sorts

Week 70 - Massive National Action Talkfest planned for Closing The Gap , Climate Change & a Pacific Solution. Aged Care Workers, Unemployed  & the Disabled ask why they weren't invited 

Week 100 - The country's officially declared a disaster zone. Overrun by the Chinese, the Pacific Islanders & boat people. Unemployment at 18% , interest rates hitting 1980 levels & the pox is everywhere. Elbow catches it for the third time & doesn't make it. 

My vision stops at this point !
