The prime sledger

Kate Chapman at Stuff reports:

Australian Prime Minister Julia Gillard has told the Wallabies they better do well so she can get back at John Key for his “perpetual abuse”. …

She told the players that Key had been using every opportunity to rib her about the All Blacks during the Pacific Islands Forum which both leaders attended this week.

“We better make sure we’re in a position to be giving some mocking back at the end of all this.” …

“At every stage, I cannot describe it to you, any issue before the forum, any direction somehow Prime Minister Key would find a way of working in a sledge.

“I’ve had it for two days.”

Superb.
