Linguists at the Australian National University have described a transcript from a meeting discussing Barnaby Joyce’s possible defection to Pauline Hanson’s One Nation Party as “completely indecipherable”. Linguistic expert Belinda Craigburn said the transcript contained a muddled mix of guttural noises, references to Woolworths’ paper bags and the word ‘wind farm’. “It reads like a malfunctioning UHF radio being attacked by a galah,” Craigburn said. “Instead of a detailed conversation about policy, what we got was Pauline yelling ‘Yeah but the thing is, Barnaby—BARNABY—no, listen—’ while Barnaby responded with a 14-minute story about a cow that got stuck in a gate. None of it resembled human language”.
