Pauline Hanson is outraged because the ATO has decided to install a few squat toilets in theri building to cater for workers from non-English speaking background.)
Patriots of ‘Straya, defenders of our land,
The enemy is at our gates, it’s time to make a stand.
Are we to sit by meekly, like a mob of frightened bunnies
While swarming hordes of immigrants
Hijack our Aussie dunnies?
Think of our glorious heritage; remember Waterloo,
Where every British soldier had his own flush portaloo.
And diggers in the trenches, who showed the Hun what’s what.
Could they have kept their courage if they’d all been forced to squat?
Our enemies are ruthless, and if we don’t stop their run
They’ll accomplish with the plumber what they couldn’t with the gun
Don’t count on legislation though to foil their fiendish notions,
Our pollies sit in Canberra, just going through the motions
No, If, in this dire circumstance, we seek to make improvement
It’s bums on seats, and lets all strain to start a protest movement.
Let’s hoist the old Eureka flag, let’s make today our D-Day
For if we don’t, then pretty soon they all demand a bidet.

There once was a migrant to Oz
Who said "I cannot sit on the bog
I want a pit and what's more, I demand it,
and I demand that on that you all shall sh*t"
It's not that squat toilets are intrinsically bad, but let's face it; squat toilets cater to the needs of a rather small minority of our population, the majority of which is accustomed and acculturated to using a sit-down facility.
So, the majority must now bow down sit down squat down in order to accomodate the desires of the minority?
Squat toilets are not an historical or cultural part of Australian life. Is it even possible or comfortable to read the paper or a good book whilst squatting at stool? I suspect it is not and I decry any and all attempts at destroying this particular part of my precious and much loved cultural heritage.

If you are out in the great Aussie bush
And suddenly you have the need to push
Behind a tree is the place to be
Lower the pants and nimbly squat
Go on give it a shot.
Back in the civilized realm of a Govt office,
How do they empty their laden orifice?
Behind the grey gum coloured door,
They simply squatted, as they did before.
So the powers that be, after complaints from others,
Come up with a solution that hopefully smothers
The smell of discrimination amongst the brothers.
"We'll add an enclosure called a pit latrine
Hopefully then, all will be serene".

ANOTHER POEM FOR PAULINE.
Don't let those squat toilets make you depressed,
They come with a bonus you may not have guessed.
They haven't thrown out the traditional ones,
There's plenty of seats still for proud Aussie bums.
But now, when you visit the ATO loos
You can smile with relief and contentedly muse
That the porcelain bowl of your pedestal seater
Has not been polluted with halal excreta

To keep everyone 'content', perhaps the solution is for folks to elect to carry their own buckets (with wheels on of course) and nip behind the occasional building or tree! ...
