Former Prime Minister and respected Northern Beaches community elder, Uncle Tony has reportedly ‘run-up’ of his longtime political rival Mark Latham today.
The Special Envoy To Indigenous Affairs says that in the Australian political landscape there’s only room for one bitter old coulda-been Prime Minister who’s turned on the party that provided him with a lifetime of tax-payer funded salaries, and it’s not gonna be that migaloo who broke the cabbie’s arm.
Uncle Tony is believed to have ‘rushed’ Latham during a press conference today, after the One Nation candidate run his mouth on 60 Minutes last night about the Member For Warringah’s people.
As Latham stated in the first of many off-the-cuff remarks that will put him at odds with Pauline Hanson, One Nation NSW will make Aboriginal welfare applicants take a DNA test to prove their ancestry, claiming the current system is being rorted by people that he wouldn’t class as black.
The NSW upper house candidate announced the policy on “ending indigenous identification rorts” Facebook today, saying the system was open to “widespread abuse”.
However, Uncle Tony, who doesn’t need papers to identify his connection to this country and the first nations people, says Latham can go and test his ‘ole.
“Gorn then” Uncle Tony shouted at Latham, in what clearly looked like he was offering him out.
Latham, is believed to have recoiled upon confrontation, remembering the last time he was alpha’d during a face to face with a Liberal Prime Minister.
As the One Nation candidate backpedalled away from the staunch Aboriginal figure, Uncle Tony begin wheeling him.
“You wanna gee-oh?” asked a pepped up Uncle Tony.
“Is that what we doing here?”
“We doing this?”
Mark Latham was quick to make his way back to his tax-payer funded Holden Statesmen, which is paid for with the $80k salary he has been on since he lost an unlosable election to John Howard.
He has since declared that any interactions he will be having with the NSW Aboriginal community will be done via Facebook and Twitter.
