PM, Craig Foster in agreement.

Homeless World Cup kicks off

Prime Minister John Howard, who has cancelled plans to fly to the Homeless World Cup final in Copenhagen, claimed,"It's clearly unfair. With my Government powering along under Treasurer Peter Costello's econmic management, taking part in the Homeless World Cup, really, it makes a laughing stock of everything we have achieved in office."

Australia were beaten heavily in their opening match of the fifth Homeless World Cup, by Scotland.

Oh well at least Scotland finally get to play in a World Cup, and then lo and behold they win a game.

Expect the Tartan Hordes to cross the North Sea as the team progresses.

Scotland, who hosted the tournament two years ago in Edinburgh, beat Australia 13-0 in their opening match.All the games are taking place in a specially-constructed stadium in Copenhagen's city square.

"We lucky to field a homeless side at all, under the current Government, never mind a good one." said Liberal Health Minister Tony Abbott.

Craig Foster, SBS Analyst, said, "There needs to be a wipeout. Technically the houses are just built to last. Get away from the English style of building, back to a more temporary building, watch those houses collapse from an early age. Then you'll see a future Australian team with a wide pool of technically homeless kids like say the Brazilians or Africans. Then we can compete at this level."

Is this the way forward for Australia. Let us know what you think.

Apologies to Craig Foster, but not the PM:)
