"Corrections Minister and Captain of the Parliamentary Rugby Team has infringed and is putting his hand into his pocket... Yes, it's a yellow card... He's ordering himself off. He's taking an early shower... Wait, he's going upstairs for a ruling... What will she say?" There will be a stay in your execution. Stay where you are. 13 September, 2007

Description

Shows a series of little scenes in which Corrections Minister, Damien O'Connor gives himself a yellow card, takes an early shower and offers himself up for punishment. A commentary follows each of these actions. In the end he is given a stay of execution by the Prime Minister. Refers to Damien O'Connor's having created an embarrassing situation by taking a suspended prison officer with him to France in the parliamentary rugby team. He was not sacked but faced with the likelihood of losing some of his portfolios, particularly the Corrections portfolio.
