I was looking through the second book of Leunig cartoons in which this image appears. In preparing my column for Wednesday, I was looking for his cartoon on how Vasco Pajama meets the scapegoat who teaches him the art of ‘copping it sweet’ – the opposite of self defence.
When I came across the image above, my mind turned to Bismark’s famous remark about laws being like sausages.
“It’s better not to see them being made”.
