Australia Post have created and marketed a new stamp displaying a picture of the current Prime Minister of Australia, Ms Gillard. The prime minister had requested a recall of the stamps following concerns that they weren’t sticking.
Australia Post recently suspended a recall of the stamps after the findings of a special Senate Committee were released.
The Prime Minister was told that the stamp was not sticking to envelopes and the enraged Prime Minister demanded a full investigation.
After a month of testing and spending of $1.85 million, a special Senate Committee led by the leader of the Greens, Bob Brown, presented the following findings:
- The stamp is in perfect order
- There is nothing wrong with the adhesive
- People are spitting on the wrong side of the stamp
