Still an all-time classic. The best are the youtube commentators who think he’s a real government minister.

I have considerable affection for the gumboot song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2MeCLILELNc

Yes .
Then there is Farnarkling , he was amazingly inventive and even more amazingly, consistently of ‘ top draw’ quality.

This was extraordinary, terrible news. So unexpected. The antipodean poet laureate of bullshit.

I would have loved to have met him, but never did. I had Clarke booked for the next twenty odd years each week with Brian Dawe. Alas it won’t be so.

His recent account of the energy market suggests that he was not falling off the pace – The Games was a classic that rewards rewatching even now
