Team Name Bonus Point – Week of 3 December 2017

A lot of politicians have been brought down by Section 44 of the Constitution, and there has been talk of changing the constitution to remove the restrictions preventing dual citizens from sitting in Parliament.

We like to be helpful, so this week for your team name we want you to come up with something new to put into Section 44. Instead of being a citizen of a foreign country or having a criminal conviction or being bankrupt, what else should keep you out of Parliament?

Charging extra for tomato sauce on a pie

Owning more than one investment property

Not remembering Don Bradman’s batting average

Using the term “un-Australian” more than once a month

Anything that you think should stop someone from sitting in Parliament will get you a bonus point.

Have an interesting week.

Team Name Bonus Point – Week of 27 August 2017

This week we want you to think about world leaders… and turn them into films or TV series or song lyrics or expressions.

May Fair Lady

Raging Turnbull

Trudeau Lies

And because the XI in the name of Chinese leader Xi Jinping is pronounced “she”, the jokes pretty much write themselves. Xi’s got a ticket to ride, Isn’t Xi lovely, Xi moves in mysterious ways, Every little thing Xi does is magic.

Anything that makes a pun out of the name of a political leader will get a point.

Have an interesting week.
