When you’re all getting ready to vote on July 2, you need to think about which candidate truly reflects our country’s values. To me, that person is a farmer in New South Wales, called Hugh Beveridge.

Hugh Beveridge farms merino sheep (merino like the wool, get it you clueless city slicker) and the one thing he likes more than sheep, is drones. A few weeks ago Hugh uploaded a video, frankly named: “Merino sheep feeding Australia”. In this video, Hugh’s sheep serenely graze in a paddock. As the drone gets higher, we see that their feed is arranged in the shape of a dick and balls and that the sheep are now in the shape of a dick and balls, and at once, everything is perfect.

It’s by far the most soothing thing you’ll see today.

The good folk at Modern Farmer were so enamoured by Hugh’s piece of performance art, that they asked him what his inspiration was. Was it some sort of protest, designed to bring the country to its knees? “Not really, no,” he said. “I thought it might get a few laughs that’s about it.” Classic Hugh.

Of course, Hugh did not invent the prestigious tradition of sheep art. This year, a Kiwi farmer named Mike Bowler became a viral sensation in New Zealand for his inspired work.

You said it, Mike.

There you have it, Australia. Hugh Beveridge’s political campaign begins today.
