FitzSimons of The Tele
Dr Mumbo nearly choked on his traditional Australia Day breakfast of lamingtons and Bundy after opening up Sydney’s The Daily Telegraph this morning.
There on page 15 was the Sydney Morning Herald’s most popular columnist Peter FitzSimons writing for its News Corp rival.
It would certainly mark a big defection.
However, it looks to Dr Mumbo rather more like mischief-making by The Tele’s layout subs. Despite being laid out to look like a column, the piece is actually on a news page, and features FitzSimons writing in his role as chairman of the Australian Republican Movement.
And the piece also went up on the SMH website last night.
The article is also in SMH print today….. that bloody red scarf he wears on his head looks so incredibly ridiculous too.. wtf does he think he is???

Someone wrote he’s a member of the bandanna republic.

I would prefer us all to wear bandanna’s as opposed to ridiculous suits and ties; just no need for them in 2016.
Haters gonna hate. Sheep are gonna follow. I admire Peter FitSimons; good onya Pete, don’t ever be a sheep in a suit!

Might have something to do with the fact that new editor Chris Dore is ever so slightly less partisan and a tad more sane than his predecessor.
