NSW Premier Hot Mess Gladys Berejiklian appears to have survived last week’s bout of new revelations regarding her relationship with former Wagga MP and future Cooma minimum security inmate, Daryl Maguire.
That’s according to recent polling regarding the Premier’s favorability amongst New South Wales voters, amidst the ICAC inquiries into the countless crimes that her former lover is accused of brazenly committing
It came as a shock to both family, colleagues and supporters, that the Premier had concealed her close personal relationship over about five years with a terminally corrupt government minister and seemingly failed to spot warning signs until late last year.
In a week where The Independent Commission Against Corruption reveals that Maguire had sought guidance from Ms Berejiklian about his illegal money-making schemes, the Premier still retains a 64 per cent approval amongst voters.
However, 71 per cent of survey respondents now say they believe the Maguire saga has hurt her reputation, and that her actions have fallen short of what they expect from the highest office in the state.
This only makes life more stressful for the Premier, who has had a tumultuous fortnight since this story first broke.
On top of the media hysteria, the NSW Premier’s personal life has only gotten more chaotic. As was reported throughout the week, Berejiklian has briefly dyed her hair blonde, maxed out her credit card on activewear, joined F45, begun dating a Bra Boy, and suspended NSW Parliament on Friday afternoon just in time for Wine O’Clock.
In better news for the NSW Government, only 36 per cent of respondents believe Hot Mess Gladys knew a fair amount or a great deal. Voters seem to have accepted Ms Berejiklian’s explanation for her behaviour, which is that she’s just had a lot going on so get over it okay?!
However, there are a few people who people who seem to know everything that has happened over the last five years. Namely the 0.00001% of the NSW population who make up the The Independent Commission Against Corruption.
It is for this reason that Hot Mess Gladys has directed her driver onto the M2 this morning, to visit a highly reccomended psychic in one of the outer-metropolitan hippy communes of The Blue Mountains.
“What else do these bitches know???” asked Gladys.
“Who told them about our brazen pork-barrelling of the $252 million Stronger Communities grants program?”
The psychic, Aquila, says something is coming to her.
“It’s ummm… I’m seeing a big room full of people. With guitars. In a land of hills”
“I’m seeing several people that are close to you, maybe your colleagues. They clapping their hands and singing”
“Does this seem familiar?”
MORE TO COME.
