Humphrey refuses to say Sorry.
In a 17 page draft of a formal statement to be issued today by Humphrey's lawyer, Mr Squiggle, Humphrey has refused to say sorry to the indigenous peoples of this land primarily because he can’t speak in order to ‘say’ sorry – he’s a mute tap dancing bear.
In Humphrey’s statement, he states:
‘Today, while the Prime Minister and various other brown-nosers are reflecting on past mistreatment of the indigenous, I will be masticating and salivating on how political arse-licking of an in itself produces brown noses, and the odd brown streak in the underpants of both front and back benchers.
I will be reflecting in particular on the mistreatment of my brother bears of the rarely publicised or spoken about Stolen Bear Generation, still serving time in zoos all over the country for crimes they never committed, and koalas who have been abused as marketing tools for foreign dignitaries, had their photographs used without permission or royalty payments to aid government policies, and their natural habitats destroyed by the destruction of non-blemished eucalypts, as related in the horrific chapters 5, 13, and 17 of Blinky Bill, to make way for farms populated by foreign sheep (the Stolen White Generation) who are subsequently shipped to the Middle East rather than back to England where they belong, only doubling their Diaspora.

The time has come for a new history book, and to turn the pages in order to read the book, or to scroll down if you purchase an electronic copy. The book I would recommend is a new copy of an old favourite, Blinky Bill, so that all Australians are educated on how to treat domestic bears, by placing them in habitats like human houses, and supplementing the incomes of those 4% who can’t get employment with government handouts, discount taxi fares and handicapped parking permits.
Until the government is prepared to say sorry to brown bears and bears of all colours, including those living between the Cape of Carpentaria and Esperance and beyond (even the polar bears who immigrated to the Antarctic), the children, descendants, mothers, fathers, brothers, sisters, aunties, uncles, friends, overseas vistitors, acquaintances & etc, for the profound grief suffering and loss they have inflicted upon us, I for one will not be apologising to my brown human brothers.
Until the future is one where Parliament recognises the eucalypts belong to us, and they stop cutting them down and turning them into parliamentary wall-cladding, and promise never to do it again, and recognise bears as equal to humans, I will not be going to Canberra today. I will be spending the day with John and Jeanette Howard reading Captain Cook’s journal.’

Half of me is still laughing over your response. The other half of me is wondering how I could possibly have left a reference to Fat Cat & Friends out of this post.

Get your birthday suit on, and we'll meet at the next Myer fashion show featuring Jennifer Hawkins. I'll either have the petition ready or steal a roll of toilet paper from the female rest room.
