Katter Says The Only Way To Break Up The Woolworths And Coles Duopoly Is To Increase Our Intake Of Greeks And Italians Because Your Average Australian Unfortunately Lacks Both The Immigrant Ambition And Merchant Instinct Required To Open A Corner Shop And Keep It In The Family For 5 Generations While Maintaining The Exact Same Suppliers And Customers For 100 Years It’s Just Something That You Don’t Get With The Run Of The Mill White Fellas Except For Maybe Butchers And That’s Only Because The Type Of Blokes That Carve Animal Carcasses For A Living Are Generally Unemployable In Any Other Sector Due To Their Tempers And Their Unorthodox Approach To The Conflict Resolution After A Few Grogs Which Usually Gets Passed On To Their Sons Who Follow Suit Into The Family Business But That’s About It Really The Rest Of The Nation Have This Fascination With Constantly Doing Better Than Their Old Man Did Like Being A Cobbler Or Running Hardware Shop Is A Life Worth Escaping Through Four Years At Some Sandstone Leftie Factory And What For? To Put On A Suit And Tie Sit In An Office Building Counting Beans For The Ten Layers Of Suits Above You? Corporate Life Is Neither An Honest Or Noble Existence And If I’m Honest It’s Not Too Different To The Sterile Lives That Are Forced Upon Our Working Class Who Spent Each Day Mopping And Stacking Shelves For These Supermarket Giants, The Only Difference Is The Australians Who Are Enslaved To Woolies And Coles Aren’t Kidding Themselves Into Thinking They Don’t Work For The Man And That’s Where These Southern Europeans Differ To The Rest Of Us, They Cannot Fathom The Idea Of A One-Stop Shop, It’s Unnatural To Them And Quite Frankly They Are Bloody Bang On When You Go To The Shops It Should Be Shops Plural, What Kind Of Society Have We Become Where You Can Buy Boot Polish And Cornflakes In The Same Joint, To Break Up The Supermarket Duopoly We Need To Retire The Idea Of A Supermarket Altogether, Let’s Go Back To The Days Of The Shopping Arcades Where We Bounce Between Shopfronts Instead Of Aisles Mind You It’s Too Late To Reprogram Most Of This Country Into That Old-Fashioned Way Of Thinking That’s Why We Need To Boost Our Numbers In Hellenics And Italics, The Slavics Do A Good Job Of This Too, Nobody Can Manoeuvre A Forklift Full Of Cucumbers Like A 60-Year-Old Balkan Who Claims Up To Four Different Nationalities Depending On Whose Asking That’s What We Need More Of Ya Know Maybe Even Some More Lebanese, It’s Just Well I Think You Want The Fruit And Veggie Ones Not The Other Mob, But Then Again, They’re All Mediterranean At The End Of The Day And The Thing About That Lot Is That They Feel Inherently Uncomfortable Standing On Polished Tiles Under Fluorescent Lights While Listening To Savage Garden While Lying To The Public About What Is And Isn’t A Special I Mean Just Look At My Family We Are Nearing 4 Generations Of Politicians In Western Queensland Without One Of Us Bailing Out To Work For A Bank Or Multinational Mining Giant And I Put That Down Directly To Our Vague Levantine Ancestry That I Will Not Be Commenting On Any Further

Coles and Woolworths have been put on notice to “do the right thing” as Prime Minister Anthony Albanese signals he’d be willing to intervene to break up supermarket duopoly.

This follows as catastrophic ABC 4 Corners investigation on Monday night that saw the CEOs of both supermarket giants arrogantly defending their practices. The Woolworths CEO has since announced his resignation as a result of the backlash caused by his mid-interview tantrum.

Four separate reviews, including a competition watchdog price inquiry, into the conduct of the supermarket chains are currently underway.

However Bob Katter MP, The Independent Member for Kennedy in North-West Queensland, has offered his own solution to the corporate exploitation of the Australian people at the hands of these two companies.

His short quote can be seen in the headline above.
