SmallPoppy.tv — the YouTube channel that brought you Tony Abbott’s wrecking ball, which clocked up close to a million views in December — is back with another piece of political comment, set to Pharrell’s ‘Happy’.

The clip begins with audio evidence of Tony Abbott’s series of promises: “No cuts to education. No cuts to health. No change to pensions. No change to the GST. And no cuts to the ABC or SBS.”

Cut to our hero chopping down forests, attacking B1 and B2, and dancing on top of a new fighter jet as Medicare lays in ruins.

While the image of a swimsuit-clad Abbott thrusting gleefully as he wreaks havoc over Australia is one we can all relate to, the other caricatures are equally compelling.
