I wish he hadn’t apologised, cos I think this is hilarious:
The Western Australian premier, Roger Cook, has apologised after calling the US vice-president, JD Vance, a “knob” at a pre-election event in Perth.
At the West Australian’s Leadership Matters event on Tuesday morning, at which Cook was the guest speaker, a journalist asked the premier to finish the sentence: “JD Vance is a …” Cook replied: “Knob.”
Cook then said: “You’ve got to have one unprofessional moment, don’t you? That was it.”
His description won him laughs and a round of applause from the audience.
Cook is vying for a third Labor term in office, with the state to go to the polls on Saturday.
Cook later said he was just having fun, telling reporters at a press conference after the function: “It was a light-hearted, non-professional moment and I didn’t mean any offence.”
Frankly, if “knob” is the nastiest thing anyone calls J. Divans this week, he’ll be doing well. And, let’s face it, Cook wasn’t wrong, and professionalism is wasted on that couchfucker anyway…
