THE ADF has a long history of banning personal choice behaviours which are otherwise acceptable in polite society. Now the same Canberra syndrome has struck federal parliament with Prime Minister Turnbull imposing a bonking ban between ministers and their staff.

To ministers who find the temptations of sexual frisson too much to resist, there’s always Queanbeyan.
Just don’t get caught.
