The Newcastle-born Premier Of The West has freaked more than a few people out over there today after turning up to his morning press conference in a creepy sleeved guernsey.
“Oh, this is just an overshirt. Don’t you think it’s a bit chilly?” laughed Mark McGowan.
“No, seriously. It’s just a jumper. Nothing to worry about guys.”
Mr McGowan went on to speak about what Twiggy Forrest has just done, without criticising or condoning him.
“Twiggy is a great West Australian,” he said.
“But Jesus Christ. You can’t be doing that. Fuck me, did you read about what Twiggy did? Go read a newspaper. Gina Rinehart, another great West Australian. She was in the mix, too. It makes me sick to my fucking stomach, but yeah. Iron ore will be key to getting this State back on track,”
“It’s also critical to the East that we get back on track because all of our GST goes there and pays for Queensland’s hospitals and Victoria’s basket weaving degrees.”
Some chuckled.
“Anyway, I’ve cancelled all my afternoon meetings today for a special, non-sport-related reason so talk to please direct your questions to future Mark.”
More to come.
