Twitter gets the giggles in quest for Bishop collective noun

A parliament of owls, a murder of crows, a rabble of butterflies… Collective nouns are wonderful things, don’t you think?

So too is political satire, and although we think it’s very cheeky and the public should show far more respect to Madam Speaker, we had to share these clever tweets offering up suggestions for the collective noun that best describes a group of Bronwyn Bishops.

I'm going with my #bishopcollectivenoun "A Teflon of Bishops", because nothing seems to stick to them…. #auspol
