What will Aussie politicians do this Xmas? Hang out at 'Cheers,' obviously.

If this video is anything to go by, best to avoid Malcolm Turnbull this holiday season should you run into him in a bar. He'll chew your ear off drunkenly complaining about the Labor party.

ABC's Insiders has a doozy of a mashup to finish the year, adding Australia's prime minister, Opposition Leader Bill Shorten and other ministers to the bars from your favourite sitcoms and films.

George Brandis is another sook to stay away from, no matter how much you'd like to hang out with the guys from The Big Lebowski. Only Barnaby Joyce looks like he's having fun making drinks next to Tom Cruise in Cocktail.

Merry Christmas, Aussie politicians. Do better next year, it won't be hard.
