While most of the world looks on in anxiousness at what is unfolding as a result of COVID-19, one man is feeling an overwhelming sense of contentment.

Drinking an Earl Grey at some luxury chain hotel, former Prime Minister Kevin Rudd is looking extra smug today.

This comes after the Coalition Government decided to copy the idea of his and Wayne Swan’s stimulus package from the Global Financial Crisis.

Scotty From Marketing has been steadily announcing different subsidies, grants, funding and tax break initiatives which are set to come to more than 15 billion dollars over the last few days in an effort to show leadership during a time of crisis.

Newstart recipients and pensioners are set to benefit from one-off cash payments (a policy very similar to the one his party spent 10 years ruthlessly attacking and condemning), small businesses will receive tax breaks (including to keep apprentices in work) and cash payments to help hire people and keep them on in what will be a very grim economy this year.

All of this has the man known as Kevin 07 salivating at the chance to loudly vocalise his feeling of vindication and his resentment towards those on the other side of the political spectrum.

“There you go hey,” he said with his trademark smile a short time ago.

“Just another thing to add to my legacy.”

More to come.
