The NSW Labor Party has taken advantage of the confusion caused by the impending end of the world to install its new preferred candidate as Premier. Upon taking office Godzilla told a press conference this afternoon he was committed to “EAT, KILL , DESTROY” as well as holding underperforming ministers to account.
The Punch received this from some creative individual this morning following Sydney’s freak dust storm. It’s amazing how quickly the viral pictures get made and circulated following a news event with any visual appeal today.
Not being in Sydney this morning I can only assume that the dust storm is in fact real, and not some hoax manufactured for the good of bored web designers.
Update:
Thanks for the photo then Ante, while fellow reader James has since alerted us to this contribution to the Sydney dust storm http://www.flickr.com/photos/ivanaclinton/3945420235/
