For those savvy on the Election 07, you'll know what I'm referring to - the liberal volunteers handing out fake "how to vote cards" appealing to Anti-Muslim sentiment. MP Jackie Kelly has likened it to a Chaser style prank and as a Chaser fan, I find that outright insulting to the Chasers.

The Chasers mock politics in general but in a way which has no serious consequnces (minus the APEC stunt but it only got themselves into a legal mess.)
Handing out fake How to Vote cards however, is the political equivalent to defamation and should be criminalised. Anyone who thinks this was fun is nuts.
Your thoughts?
