Scott Morrison was doing a presser at a local Queensland Health-run hospital to sell his budget. As always he was looking for something to beat QH with to show how badly run and loss making things were in Labor-run health systems.

While ScoMo was checking the books he turned to the executive of the hospital and said I notice you buy a lot of bandages. What do you do with the middle of the roll?””Good question” noted the executive. “We save them up and send them back to the bandage company and every once in a while they send us a free roll. We recycle whenever possible.”

 

“Oh” replied ScoMo somewhat disappointed that his unusual question had a practical answer. But on he went in his obnoxious way. What about all these coloured casts you dispense. Isn’t it rather a waste of money?” 

“Ah yes” replied the executive realizing that ScoMo was trying to trap him. “We ask that any patient wishing a coloured cast donates $1 which is far in excess of the 10c the colouring actually costs.” 

ScoMo asked a dozen or more questions with similar results. he was determined to fluster the know-it-all executive.  “Well What do you do with all the remains from the circumcision surgeries?” 

“Here too we do not waste” answered the executive. “What we do is save all the little foreskins and send them to Federal Government and about once a year at this time, they send us a complete prick.”
