About the Author
  — Department of Australia

Department of Australia @deptofaustralia

Leslie Nassar created Department of Australia (Hand-crafted, artisanal satire made from the finest Google image searches) in 2014. He was at times a games developer, a producer, a photographer, and a writer. In 2009, he was fired from Telstra for maintaining the Fake Stephen Conroy Twitter account. He occasionally appears on ABC TV’s Insiders with Mike Bowers and Talking pictures. In addition to Department of Australia, Leslie is the co-founder of Wrangling Cats Pty Ltd, and created the software that manages the never-ending torrent of Tweets on ABC TV’s Q&A.

    Australian Pygmy Possum is going to shirtfront a Russian bear – should be fun.

    The alarming thing is that Abbott genuinely believes Going The Biff is a solution.

    If ever there was a cage-fight match made in Heaven, Tony Vs Vlad is it.

    It would be worth seeing him try to punch the wall by Vlad’s head, just to see the response.

    Tony Abbott makes a marvelous long distance bully doesn’t he? I’d love to see him in action versus Vlad the Impaler when they meet face to face in private-with nothing but silence as an audience.
