The latest numbers are hard to find, but it seems Australia is a very generous supporter of the World Health Organisation, having tossed some $65.8 million into the world body’s pot in 2011 alone. Now that WHO has decided Zimbabwe’s nonagenarian butcher and despot Robert Mugabe is just the sort of chap to represent the body as its warm-and-fuzzy ambassador, might it not be a good idea to stow the chequebook and walk away?

WHO, of course, could have found a better spokesman and is reportedly considering telling Mugabe his services aren’t wanted after all, which would mean a replacement candidate is needed.

UPDATE: WHO drops Mugabe. Ivan Milat, please wait by the phone.
