...we could simply legislate 50% of the existing male directors into having sex-change operations...
A Liberal senator wants to use the power of Parliament to force women into the boardrooms of the nation.

"It's not fair that university degrees only be awarded to the academically gifted. They should be equally distributed amongst all the various protected categories of citizens."

"To reward those with aptitude and diligence at the expense of those lacking such attributes is a clear violation of our rights."
Uh-huh.
