Puppetry and politics collide once again on YouTube with John Howard: Search For A Scapegoat.

John Howard: Search For A Scapegoat is the latest in a series of political puppetry satires from Shan Jayaweera that take aim at the Australian Prime Minister. It’s an election year down under and in Shan’s newest videos John Howard’s puppet alter ego searches for “someone new to blame and (use to) scare the voters into voting for him”. Two episodes are available so far; you can check them out on YouTube here and here.
