Looks like the Boatie is off the radar at the moment.
Sir John McEwen (29 March 1900 20 November 1980) was an Australian politician and farmer.
He served as the 18th prime minister of Australia from 1967 to 1968, in a caretaker capacity following the disappearance of prime minister Harold Holt.
He was the leader of the Country Party from 1958 to 1971, serving as the inaugural deputy prime minister of Australia from 1968 to 1971.

All I can say is under the circumstances don't participate on this Thread until you can contribute as other members do and not to continue to disrupt the flow of the Thread, just because you can.
Refer your comments to the Webmaster should you not agree. If the Webmaster is sympathetic to your cause then I am prepared to remove myself from this Thread and leave you to continue disrupting the spirit of this Thread.

Another famous Australian.
Aah Boatie, I read you so well. You relied on AI (as past posts) to give you the answer you thought would be correct. Caught out and wrong to boot.
A clue now for everyone with the exception of "Ineedabiggerboat".
A former Prime Minister of Australia.
Clue...
Before entering federal politics, he worked as an accountant and served in local government in Queensland.
Anyone else want to have a go seeing Boatie has run out of AI solutions.
Clue...
He was a politician in the Country Party.
