JC: Carmel and Chloe Are Cot Cases

The Collins English Dictionary’s definition of a cot case in Australia and New Zealand is someone who is either to ill to get out of bed or too incapacitated by drink. The Oxford English Dictionary also defines the term as a person or thing regarded as useless or unable to cope. My headline refers to the Oxford meaning.

The latest comments from Carmel Sepuloni and Chloe Swarbrick suggest the voters who consigned them to the Opposition benches must be congratulating themselves with such gay abandon.
