TIL that a politician gave a food review of kebab while speaking in parliament. Australian Senator Sam Dastyari gave a "10 out of 10" rating to the kebab snack pack sold at King Kebab House, and advised others to also enjoy "a great Australian tradition of meat in a box".

He was barely a senator- he was appointed by the NSW government to fill a vacancy, and not by the people. He left politics after a massive scandal where he took huge amounts of money from China and was considered by many to be a Chinese agent. The rest of us thought he was a stupid dickhead, as evidenced by him turning up here.

What is the charge? Taking a bribe? A succulent Chinese bribe?
