Federal Opposition Leader Kevin Rudd last night described his disappointment at the quality of this year's Sydney University Arts Revue in a policy announcement released at midnight via the online video sharing site YouTube.The prime minister today attempted to wedge Mr Rudd on this issue, saying that the Arts Revue was a proud aussie tradition, describing its actors as patriotic heroes and aspirational battlers who just needed a government who would keep the economy on track.
Mr Rudd today attempted to clarify his comments, pointing out that actually he thought that some of the sketches, especially the opening number, were really very funny, and that the bit in the middle where Sertan was dressed in military uniform and they all danced to that Edwin Starr song was hilarious.
"I also maintain a deep and mutual admiration and affection for the director. And the delusionists bits are still heaps funny."
Upon hearing that Kevin Rudd had said something, Alexander Downer called a snap press conference, telling reporters that Mr Rudd was only being a clever politician, knowing that this issue would get him at least 27 comments on his blog.
Joe Hockey blamed union bosses.
