Australia’s cucked upper house is once again indulging its puritanical streak by investigating a senior official for the heinous crime of having anime figurines in his workplace.

Fair Work Commission Deputy President Gerard Boyce drew the ire of staff members for having “scantily-clad” figurines that General Manager Bernadette O’Neill deemed “inappropriate”. O’Neill described the figures:

“My recollection was one was a female-type figure, and the other I’m not sure is even human… I honestly can’t recall the second one. These were to my understanding amateur figurines without a lot of detail.”

News sources report there being between 10 and 20 figurines in his office, which were removed over time after objections from other members of staff.

O’Neill was apparently unable to recall whether any of the figurines were bare-chested. Despite only having seen them in a photograph and not having encountered the figurines in person, she added that she was “here to stand up for women in the workplace who should not be exposed to this kind of gross intimidation”.

Australian Labor Party Member Tony Burke added that Boyce’s decision to display the figurines would “undermine trust in the professionalism of the Commission”, declaring that Boyce was the “last person who should be an umpire over what’s fair in the workplace”.

In addition to the figurines, Boyce caused controversy by installing a security camera in his office without asking permission.
