ROBERT'S POPE FOR PM

The angel on his shoulder is an advantage


I saw on the news that Pope Alphonso or whatever his name is paraded in front of millions of people in the Philipines on the weekend.


This was impressive (although the yellow poncho raincoat was less so. Why couldn't the bloody catholic church organise a white one?

Anyway the attendance figures make for some useful statistics and I've put together an analysis of these.*

6 million people paraded to support the pope.
4 million people live in New Zealand
If this was extrapolated to New Zealand then 150% of the population supports the pope.
Ergo, the pope should be our Prime Minister

Certainly old pope Pablo would be more popular than our current Shonkey. For a start he has some decent ideas about morality, fairness, equality and anti-corruption. He still has a bit of a way to go re women's rights, contraception and freedom of speech when it is related to lampooning religions but I guesss that is to be expected.


At least he doesn't make a complete ass of himself on the world stage when trying to be clever or funny unlike our pathetic (and inexplicably popular) PM.
