For a man who refers to his wife as "Princess", it seems odd that one of the world's most loved "queens" has left such a sour taste in John Laws's mouth.
Golden Tonsils was all fired up on his 2UE morning show yesterday, upset by the antics of visiting US television personality, Carson Kressley, the queerest of the ***** Eye for the Straight Guy cast.
"This is a really serious thing," Laws warned his listeners. "It's not often that I get really worried about this country, but I tell you what, I had a sleepless night last night after watching the television that I saw in relation to the Melbourne Cup. Who is this pompous little pansy prig who's strutting around everywhere yesterday, telling Australian blokes how to wear their pocket square? As he called it. That's poof speak for handkerchief ... Who is he? He might be famous in certain circles, circles being the operative word, we know where they are."
The talking Brillo Pad wasn't letting up, and continued with: "He was judging girls, now what the **** does a pillow biter know about judging girls? They should have had a few truckies down there, or me, or the co-driver even. Fair-dinkum Aussie blokes judging fair-dinkum Aussie girls. Not this pompous little pansy.

It's a major issue. It's all very good and well that Australia tolerates people with varied sexual leanings but I don't know why we should be celebrating it. The sooner this fairy flies out and lets us judge our own women on our own criteria the better."
Finally he drew to a close, speaking on behalf of "truck drivers, wharf labourers, free thinking red-blooded Australian men and me". He then went on to play a recorded track saying "**** Off Pansy". Not quite finished yet, Laws went on to say: "I know what you would like to have said [plays track] '**** Off Poof', but you can't say that because that's a derogatory word, so we won't say that. We wouldn't stoop to that, well I really wouldn't want to s-s-s-stoop to anything, would I?"
