Bullstrode Whitelocke is a contender for the bellwether seat of Eden Monaro at the upcoming Federal election.
His treatise, Whitelocke: On Lawmanship is a comedy text book for lawyers and law students. For $20 you can purchase a lifetime of legal hilarity.
Having destroyed the Big Trout on the first of our Eden-Monaro Work Place Relations debates (according to a rudimentary “Worm” which recorded the reactions of 6 enthusiastic locals to the contest) I retired to the shores of Lake Eucumbene to engage in a spot of fly fishing. Reflecting on my performance, it occurred to me that the Big Trout was, in many ways, like my old adversary Basil Marceaux. A worth adversary but an anachronism in this day and age of the 24 hour media cycle.
Basil's policy position
Ironically, the Big Trout shares some of Basil’s more controversial views on gun ownership and flag trim.
(The deeply conservative Big Trout)
Neverthelss, I salute both the Big Trout and Basil Marceaux. Ideological soldiers from a better time.
Prominent barrister, politician, chalker of the Cerne Abbas Giant and bon vivant, Bullstrode Whitelocke KC is one of Australia's most vigorous octogenarians.
