Labor is red; the Liberals are blue; on this Valentine's Day I have a poem for you:
In just 12 months so much is new
Let's have a look at what we've all been through;
Back then our ex-PM did not hold a hose
Said t'was not a race—did he lie? Macron knows;
We went to an election and the choice was easy
Australia did choose Prime Minister Albanese;
His plan for a better future is what the country had needed
A positive vision for Australia as PM Morrison receded;
Onto these benches were moved, and that's when it all came out
All the secrets they'd been hiding, all the mistruths they had spout;
Weeks before the poll, in a cunning secret of plot
The member for Hume gave nondisclosure a shot
No, it wasn't doctored travel receipts—it was much worse
It was Minister Taylor's secret hit to the purse;
A 20 per cent jump in the price of our power
Kept hidden during the campaign, released in the final hour;
