Kattertonia: The Wit and Wisdom of Bob Katter

What's going on under that hat?



In these pages we life the brim and uncover the words of a true-blue Aussie who shoots from the hip.



Bob Katter doesn't hold back when it comes to himself: 'There is a rage in my soul, a hatred in my soul.'



Far-north Queensland: 'It is a magic land and we could support a population of 80 million people in the Gulf Country alone.'



Women: 'He said that I considered women second-class citizens. If they were staying at home and not working then I would not consider them second-class; I would consider them first-class citizens.'



Environmental activists: 'not a race of people that I like in any way, shape or form.'



The information age: 'I have long since given up reading journals and newspapers and watching the television, because the flow of information is so erroneous and misleading.'



Gay rights: 'If homosexuality is a fashion statement, it is a very dangerous fashion statement. '



The live cattle trade industry: 'They're people that love their animals, sort of.'



And that's just a taste of Kattertonia . . .
