Myxomatosis maybe

Myxo is still around but it is Khaleesi virus we have now to try to eradicate the vermin your intelligent forbears saw fit to bring with them.

Over 2 centuries ago and they were of your own stock phil.

About 170 years, by my reckoning, and I wish I were of the same stock as the indigenous Tasmanians; far better to be related genetically to them than to the nation that exterminated them.

Why don't you try anthrax ?  And this time, keep it in your own God-damned country and don't export it to a civilised world that loves animals.

As for Livo, his motives for supporting George have become plain enough.
