This menu was created as a personal joke by a restauranter between himself and his son back in March.
Unfortunately it was all beat up because it was claimed that the menu was presented at a Liberal (Opposition) Party dinner - which was not true.
Free speech and Press in Australia allows anyone to mock or make fun of others - in particular Politicians.
Only yesterday in a live radio interview with Prime Minister Gillard, a radio presenter in W.A quizzed her if her partner Tim Mathieson is gay. When she said No, he ask her how sure she was?
Although the imputation is there, it is not a suing or libel case.
The radio presenter was sacked by his radio station this morning for being disrespectful to the PM.
However, the presenter is now suing the station for the balance of his 6 months pay contract claiming unfair dismissal.
Maybe the radio guy went a bit too far......but hey, all birds are fair game especially when the description fits as perfectly as per your menu.
The question is was the menu referring to our PM's red hair or something else? Hmmm...
