Another John Clarke Inspired Sketch: Mr Saye De Pledge
In the Style of Our Late Master, Mr John Clarke
Brian: Now, your name is De Pledge?
John: My name is De Pledge, yes Brian, good evening
Brian: Have you got a first name?
John: Saye
Brian: Saye De Pledge. Is your brother Sine De Pledge?
John: That’s right Brian
Brian: Alright, Saye, your special subject tonight is nationalism
John: You mean, Patriotism, don’t you Brian?
Brian: No – it definitely says nationalism
John: Oh – alright then – basically the same thing anyway
Brian: Good luck, Saye, your time starts now. How did the parliament vote on Tanya Plibersek’s proposal to have school children pledge allegiance to Australia?
John: The right way, Brian
Brian: And what way was that?
John: They voted in favour of that great patriotic idea, Brian
Brian: Is it wise to have kids at school reciting some jingoistic slogans without understanding them?
John: I think it is, Brian. It gets them ready for voting when they’re older
Brian: Correct
John: Correct
Brian: Have there been any comments on the pledge or its content?
John: Well I did hear one bloke say ‘How good is a pledge of allegiance?’
Brian: Has anyone said anything critical of the pledge?
John: There actually was a fair bit of unpatriotic behaviour, Brian
Brian: Hang on – you just equated being critical of a pledge of allegiance with being unpatriotic
John: Correct. It’s good being on Team Australia, isn’t it, Brian?

Me good Aussie borned here. Don’t do no pledge. Me sing God save Queen in far country. Dat same ting?
There are nazi types, carbuncular pricks, who claim some right to define loyalty, pledges, guaranteed submission to authority, and want the rest to get in line with this hijacked, stolen fake and fraud leadership. Who would follow these turds in their brainless righteousness and devotion to selfish filth for followers only? Merde-Hoch is not Australian, the boards of huge money sucking corporations are not Australian, our banks and businesses are dominated by foreign investment and controllers of profit and policy. Who is loyal to Australia? Certainly not the UnAustralian slime and slut types infesting the profiteering conservative parties and organisations of the right wing…
Boy do I, & probably thousands more, miss the late John Clarke. If ever anyone could take the piss out of anything he was master at it! Great comment piece Dr Jones!
