Shark Bait

One day, the Pope visited Australia and after a rough week of meeting archbishops and other religious figures, he decided to go and see the Pacific Ocean from the North Shore.

When he arrived in his Popemobile, he saw a man struggling for his life against a shark.

Taking a closer look he saw that it was Scott Morrison.

Horrified, he started to call for help when a speedboat pulled up alongside Morrison, with Peter Dutton and Tony Abbott on board. Dutton leaned over and pulled Morrison out. Then both Dutton and Abbott begin to beat the shark to death with cricket bats.

The two men notice the Pope and land the boat on the beach.

The Pope said to the men, ‘I know that there has been a lot of attention and a lot of strife in Australian Politics, but I can see that you three men respect each other and would help each other in your hour of need. You have my blessings.’

The Pope drove off in his Popemobile.

Dutton asked, ‘Who was that?’

‘That was the Pope, Peter, he is all knowing and in touch with God. The leader of the Catholic Church,” said Abbott.

Dutton looked down at Morrison, and said to Tony, “Well that’s all neat and fine, but he doesn’t know anything about shark fishing. How is the bait holding up?”
