Croc Season
Harry Bruce
This cartoon was published the day before the federal Budget was handed down on 14 May. The Budget is a major annual event that can sway the fortunes of governments and oppositions alike. Harry Bruce depicts the major players - Anthony Albanese, Jim Chalmers, Barnaby Joyce, Peter Dutton and Angus Taylor - circling each other like hungry crocs.
