Since being elected as NSW Premier yesterday, Gladys Berejiklian has had all sorts of questions asked of her, each ranging from reasonable to wildly stupid.
Will she reign-in Mike Baird’s controversial lockout laws? Can she fix Sydney’s enormously, depressingly fucked housing market? And how dare she, a woman in power, chose to not have children?
But all that is piss compared to this one, folks: how and why the hell does she defend ibises aka Satan’s saddest friends?!
Ibises are, quite rightfully, seen as the worst creatures on this otherwise beautiful planet. They are Filth that was put here as a challenge to us, a test to see how much ugliness and evil humanity can face down. We have done well to hate and fear them.
And yet, an incoming premier, on her second day no less, comes out in defence of these winged diapers? RIP NSW Liberals, I guess.
In an interview with Merrick Watts on Triple M this morning, Berejiklian was asked what her plans are to get rid of the pests. To gasps, screams and moans, she said:
“Can I just say something? I think they get a hard time.”“And I’m just sick of people picking on the ibis, honestly.”
And when Watts, the apparent voice of reason here, quite rightly points to all the votes she’ll lose over this, Berejiklian bizarrely stands her ground.
If anything, it sounds like she was holding back a more feverent, righteous support for the Bad Bird:
“Lay off them, pick another target.”“And look they hang around when no one else is there… Anyway next question.”
While we here at P.TV have been chronicling ibis yarns for a while now, including that nerd-mag Australia Geographic’s desperate plea for us to pay the bin chicken more respect (lol no), I’m yet to hear someone so passionately defend this filthy, wicked little creature.
I mean look at this thing. Look at how much hate the bin rat has to give.
Disgusting.
You can listen to the full interview here, and we will make sure to bring you more as this story develops (note: probably not).
