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.

    You come and go, you come and go…..”

    “Our King Coal
    Is a silly Bolt-hole,
    Yes a silly Bolt-hole is he.
