The Attorney General Stepped Out In This Jumper And A Hilarious Meme Was Born

    By George, he nailed it.

    Fairfax photographer extraordinaire Alex Ellinghausen snapped attorney-general George Brandis coming back to Canberra on Sunday and DEAR LORD was he rocking a comfortable sweater.

    *puts ear to the ground* Yes sir, that's the sound of a hundred Aussies opening Photoshop...

    ...because Brandis was quickly transformed into Australia's next top model (minister).

    Australia's next top attorney-general. #auspol

    A drag race was not going to get in this AG's way. SLAY, GEORGE, SLAY!

    Covergurl! Put the Brandis in your walk

    And the world of high fashion could learn a thing or two.

    So could all men tbh.

    Well, you can tell by the way I use my walk, I'm a woman's man: no time to talk.

    The sweater had some people seeing a future for Brandis in the music industry.

    @ArtOfBrandis please accept 'Wake Up Brandis'

    The clear favourite though was "Brandis on Ice".

    PERFECT 10s FROM THE JUDGES!

    It was such a comformtable sloppy joe, people like ABC News Intern just kept pumping out instant classics.

    When I saw the Brandis photo, I felt an expression cross my face, and it reminded me of…

    Bloody hell things got weird.

    This one is dedicated to @GreenJ and every other lover of Nordic Noir. #BrandisJumperDay #freethearts #auspol

    But a shout-out to Triple J Hack reporter Alice Workman, who did the digging and uncovered the sweater. She even found a willing model.

    What I've learnt about Brandis' Country Road knitwear - it's cream and blue & @chilliham bought his on sale in 2013.

    Not sure we'll ever be able to look at the AG the same way ever again.

    This must be your worst nightmare @jmodoh. (Pic via @kloussikian)
