QLD Election and Nudity – NSFW

Posted on 20 March 2009 by Naomi

What the HELL is it with Queensland politicians and taking off their clothes for the cameras???

Not that I mind overly much. I’m not sitting here with my lips pursed, looking like I just ate 15 lemons in a row. It’s just… odd. Is it the weather? It IS much warmer here than in most states. Can you imagine pulling the old ‘let’s rip off the kilt!’ maneouvre in Canberra?

Want a summary?

Warwick Capper – Proposed Candidate for Beaudesert

OMG this boy is a bogan! 😀

Pauline Hanson – Candidate for Beaudesert

Apparently, this isn’t Pauline. Frankly, I don’t think so either. And I think one of the funniest things about the whole uproar is the idea that this is ‘bad’ for a political candidate.

Dave Zwolenski – Candidate for Mt Coot-tha

Anna Bligh

Sadly, this is about as ‘nude’ as Anna seems to get when there are cameras about:

And other random ‘clothes off for the cause’ moments:

    Crikey Dick, I nominate all Banana Benders are in charge of PR for election campaigns henceforth, those photos (and candidates) are bloody funny!

    Jayne, I reckon you’ve got a great idea there. I mean, you can forgive inept campaigning when candidates are willing to strip off for the amusement of their electorate – that’s commitment! 😀
