'Kindergarten Cop' mashup just about sums up Australian politics in 2016
Watch Next

Even if you know nothing about recent Australian news, this mashup of Arnold Schwarzenegger's 1990 film Kindergarten Cop feels like a fairly universal bit of political commentary.

Appearing on ABC's Insiders, the clip reveals just how tough-but-fair undercover detective John Kimble would handle a classroom full of hapless politicians. Don't worry, nothing is under control.

And if you wanted to see what Deputy Prime Minister Barnaby Joyce's head looks like on a tiny child's body, this is your (terrifying) chance.
