A of Australian origin, although might have traveled to some extent,
fictional down-to-earth dead-end-reality like (when applied) 'lubricant' in-mockery-of , rather than mythical aggrandization of 19th/20th century magical-cure oils, aethers/vapors, etc,
in reference to the simultaneous size of Clive Palmer's war-chest so to speak, spending-on-lawyers readiness or supposed 'untouchability' ... when despite his wealth, he loses most court-cases he's involved in,

or primarily,
means adding something that is SUPPOSED to be going-to facilitate social/political lubrication,
but draws attention to itself, might attract the interest of the police, courts, or other interventionaries, the media, or generally cause a already slow or clogged, dirty machine-of-industry or of-politics, to become EVEN MORE, slowed down or even more clogged, despite the irony of it's (on the label) purpose.
If i remember correctly, it has also been used as an INGREDIENT, amongst the ingredients list on the back of a fictional political-product (a metaphoric consumer product message-in-a-bottle (or item))
