Once again, the media has instantly sprung into action to cover up the details of the murder of British Tory MP Sir David Amess.
As the establishment media cuts straight to the formula of paying tributes to the victim, the Daily Mail is alone in providing clues about another crime caused by the mad Western idea of importing Muslims who hate their adopted country:
Counter terrorism officers are tonight leading the investigation into the murder Tory MP Sir David Amess, police have confirmed.
It comes after horrified onlookers screamed for help as they tried to save the Conservative MP after he was brutally stabbed to death in front of them at his Southend constituency surgery.
The popular politician – who won at the last general election with a margin of 14,000 votes – was knifed ‘multiple times’ by a 25-year-old killer.
His attacker sprinted into the church and stabbed him to death during his weekly surgery as constituents watched in horror.
The Tory MP for Southend West, 69, was meeting locals at the Belfairs Methodist Church, in Eastwood Road North, Leigh-on-Sea, when it happened just at 12.05pm.
Paramedics worked to save the politician on the floor of the Essex church for more than an hour but he could not be saved after the appalling attack.
Paramedics worked on the floor for an hour. How many deaths could have been prevented had paramedics spent that hour getting him to hospital operating theatre and surgeons? Princess Diana is on who springs to mind.
Many years ago we were part of the 457 visa program.
From my experience, there is no way a 457 visa fraud could occur without the employer being in on it.

Overnight Alex Berenson has released a column on his substack regarding excess deaths in Europe.
He touches on an issue that is becoming more apparent as the data gets released every quarter.
Because of the response/restrictions governments imposed with their citizens, there are now a whole cohort of people dying from other causes that were reasonably avoidable/treatable.
Where has the lateral thought gone.
As bad as these excess deaths are it’s not a patch on the problems that destroying two years of education for kids will cause.

That one went really well with coffee to get the blood flowing! I’m awake now.
With every post of yours you sound more & more like that lantern jawed ‘female’ copper from your home patch, who I had to school.
Besides always keening to be seen spitting & scratching at who the mean girls spit & scratch at, you’re so easily led into school yard comebacks. Like a silly, angry child, you can’t make up your mind as to whether to try to brand me a ‘she cat’ or a ‘bitch’, being blinded by enmity.
At least your very sparse, very selective ‘quotes’, with your story re-writes between, indicate just how right you know I was to simply be seen, quietly, happily, along side the family (that included a VERY Pregnant woman), keeping the calm & dignity on the very public side of we sane, free breathers.
Your sad,”Pfft”, also indicates just how much you (like a number of the other tin suited white knights), are seen as the simps you are, not ‘punching on with other men’ to ‘protect & defend’ your ‘ladies’ (from the pack attacks they start), but insisting on jumping in to attack a stand alone old woman for them, with your own brand of gratuitous cyber head kicking.
Ah but now you must excuse me, as I’m off to see a man about a dog.

What we really need are night cart drivers to take out the “political shit”.
Matrix, I imagine some of these categories are created to get one particular person a visa.
It would be interesting, and informative to track back and see who it was. And who they know.
That would take a curious person of an investigative bent with, possibly, access to a publication or broadcaster.
One of those.
Categories are always changing.
For all visa classes.
In consultation with big business & industry groups.
Would love to see the fucks at vikpol try and break up this protest:
Somewhat reminiscent of Rourke’s Drift.
Please.
We’re in the midst of an existential crisis.
Is this sort of frivolity really a priority right now?
Srr seems to have been describing her son, daughter in law and grandson, that she mentioned several times here.
Family seems to run into a lot of racists.
And maybe KD thinks and operates independently.
Novel?
Some people think the 457 visa holder is for when a business try as they might to employ a local, they just can’t, so they just happen to come across someone on the other side of the planet who just happens to fit the 457 requirements at that time.
Then bingo, a match made in heaven.
This is wrong.
Biggest users of 457 are big business, usually via a ring fenced subsidiary.
Big business has a shit project coming up 3-6 months out & they need 10-15 staff to do work that they know locals won’t do or won’t do for the budget they have.
Big business goes to specialist agency to fill gap.
Agency then goes to agency in source country.
Agency in source country contacts all those suitable on their books.
Both agencies handle all the visa & travel requirements.
457 visa holders turn up in Australia & in most cases stay at accomodation put together by agency.
They do they work.
If there are classification or category problems, no problems, the government is very accomodating for big business.
Can’t let that pass without a segue.

It’s not just 457 visas.
All those high rollers from mainland China who punted at Crown who the ABC/Fairfax/Nine said were the devil.
There were almost 200 of them.
Most had special visas granted via the “express” route that Crown (& other big businesses) enjoyed.
I detect Avoirdupois Supremacy.
Australia has always been corrupt. Like most nations.
The new level is the lack of shame and the electorate’s impotence. It’s now flaunted in our faces and there isn’t a thing we can do about it.
The post on the old threat about Australia having a caste system in place is so true.
It sickens me.
But the real problem is that there are people are fully aware of it & will do anything to get into the unaccountable political caste & then do anything to stay there.
Nicholas Reece comes to mind.
Maybe that’s what sickened me.

Murdered whilst meeting constituents. Engaging directly with constituents is something all UK MPs do regularly….something we should have here. As for the murder, I’ve just read “Somalian” and it’s already being looked at as “terror related”. Remember when Jo Cox was murdered in June 2016? The murderer was a white man…and of course the MSM sprung into furious and immediate action, calling him “far-right” and then using Cox’s murder to smear Brexit voters as waaaaacist. I doubt we’ll see the same furious reaction after this, it won’t fit the narrative. Amess was a very popular local MP who’d made his constituency, once marginal, into a safe Tory one.
But watch the MSM keep tabs on the murder….particularly if the perpetrator is a Somalian….hmm wonder what his religion could be? I can give you a clue, Somalia doesn’t have any Christians, Jews, Hindus and Buddhists.
Further on the despicable media, Colin Brazier has taken over from Andrew Neill as head of GB News…which despite its early hiccups is now beginning to find its balance (it’s only four months old!) as an alternative to the BBC. Brazier spent over two decades at UK Sky News (completely different to Sky Oz) and this week he spoke to Peter Whittle who runs the excellent Youtube channel “The New Culture Forum” (Whittle is also a former Tory politician). Brazier spoke about how in 2015 he was covering the “migrant” (cough) surge into Europe for UK Sky. As he said, most of the “migrants” were young able bodied men, very few from Syria but from further afield. Brazier was covering the story on the border of Hungary and he described how the MSM deliberately covered up the fact that it was the young migrant men who were the aggressors and who were deliberately throwing rocks and incendiary devices at the Hungarian border guards. The MSM spruiked lies so as to smear Orban and the Hungarian government who rightly said no to the “refugees” (cough).
Anyway, RIP David Amess.
Podiums only create Podiumism, Ban Podiums.

For a man of God, Bower seems awfully leery of meeting his maker.
Your concerns are valid, and I share them. But if we can park them for a moment…
Thats why those projects were always exempt from lockdown rules.
‘bern.
457s were definitely rorted by large corporates, and often just based on convenience or individual relationships.
A couple of years ago I was working for a global company doing large projects and they used to shuffle people all over the place.
A lot of it was for legit subject matter experts but once we got tapped into 457 world, some dodgy stuff went on.
Managers/specialists bringing PAs and other admin staff with them under 457s for jobs which could easily have been filled by Aussies.
They were often useless, spoke unintelligible pidgin English and took advantage of their privileged sponsor child status.
Will you guys please desist from so much circling back?
We need to move forward.
Perhaps reach out to Dover for a dedicated podium placement thread?
I predict that Bower’s prediction won’t come to pass.
And Perrottet has delayed the regional reopening to let them catch up with the vaccines that are all going to kill everyone anyhow.
It’s really breathtaking how awful the Biden Usurpation is. I didn’t realize why the jam in US ports has been occurring until now.

my issue with the 3 tier podium is that it reinforces the notion that the system is actually stacked against achieving equity outcomes.

457 visas should be restricted to companies with limited purchasing power.
That is, small business.
It’s not perfect, but it would stop the industrialised rorting.
I love the way the ABC/SBS/Age, whenever they have to report on ALP branch stacking, open their statement by helpfully reminding us that ‘it’s not illegal!’ One online ABC article actually had this as a bolded standout headline. But only a week ago they were screaming about tax minimizers and the ‘Pandora papers’ as if they’d just found Adolf Hitler living in Argentina. And then buried down in the 23rd paragraph is the note that nothing these people were doing was illegal.
So would I calli, or get them here without having to endure two weeks quarantine if they were allowed to return, which currently afaik they are not.
I also have a holiday lined up early next year – SA > NT > QLD.
We’ve put it off twice now. Bet it’s third time unlucky too. I don’t want to be caught unable to get home in my own country.
I have an Australian Passport
Interesting Political relic. May be of interest to some historian one day.
Just as the ‘muslim convert’ who killed 5 mostly elderly people with a bow and arrow in Norway is now the pretext to remind everyone about Anders Bering Brevik, so every article I’ve seen about the Conservative MP murdered by a Somali turns into an article about the Labour MP who was stabbed five years ago.
Apparently not.
Check the title. The “pandemic” caused the problem.
The article says the pandemic “indirectly” caused it.
Wonder what that could possibly mean?
Try to keep the hysterical, emotional, illogical responses and lies out of it when you are talking to a male.

As for Pete Buttigieg and “husband”. Barf. So he’s a catcher not a pitcher.
Won’t that mean the inevitable use of a vax passport somewhere along the way?
Unless you are planning to travel and sleep in an MX5 with the windows sealed shut.
Health Warning.
And further to Tom’s Daily Mail link….Boris the Clown has said…
“Prime Minister Boris Johnson, meanwhile, said all our hearts are filled with ‘shock‘ and ‘sadness‘, as he reacted to the loss of the stalwart Conservative MP.
Returning to Downing Street to address the shocking news after a Cabinet away-day in Bristol, the PM said: ‘All our hearts are full of shock and sadness. “
Where’s the ANGER Boris? Until people’s hearts are full of anger this will continue. Bit by bit this hideous death cult will chip away and destroy the west…how? With screams and screeches of racism every time you try and criticise their violent ideology, with knifings, with stabbings, with shooting bow and arrows at people in supermarkets, with bombs filled with nails to blow up little girls at a pop concert, with Jewish children murdered outside a school, with trucks being driven into crowds of people, with an elderly couple decapitated in their home and on and on it goes. I don’t know about others but I’m sick and tired of being “shocked” and “sad”…..we need anger, we need to stand up and say enough. But we won’t because we’ve lost the will to fight, we’ll just continue to be shocked and saddened and they’ll continue to laugh and plan more attacks.
Penetrating trauma needs a surgeon, not a gaggle of baggy arsed ambos faffing about.

“Expert” Calls For Denying Life-Saving Hospital Treatment To The Unvaccinated (15 Oct)
The inner fascists have been unleashed in a way I never would’ve thought possible. Literal mass insanity. It extends to the climate tragics too. Quite amazing.
Still winning people over to the cause, I see.
Attacking the messenger when the message, stated by thousands of people throughout the history of humanity, isn’t liked.
Preferably by vetted form letter.
A significant body of work is underway and under review in this space by that cohort.
I didn’t say that, Sancho.
I’ve already had one knock-down, drag-out about use of these hideous “passports” for holidaying in my own country. To the point where sir told me he’d go alone and leave me behind. Yikes.
So I’m contemplating being a double vaxxed Job and sitting on the dung heap, the mullet of shame growing ever longer, grinding my righteous teeth while he enjoys the bright lights of Darwin. Or, even worse, he stays home with said dog in the manger wife.
Miserable whichever way you put it. Thanks tyrants. Real champs.

Vaccines are my line.
Why?
If the States have these levels of unfettered power and the Commonwealth and courts abide, what else can they or will they do?
The Veritas stuff coming out now is very damning. Which is why the vaccines were pushed so hard. Pfizer had NO immune response in some test subjects, senior scientific management did not care.
Compare them to Novavax or Sputnik.
Ethically produced, ACTUALLY safe and effective.
Not approved yet or banned by omission.
It’s not just about “climate passports”.
It is about a total change to a totalitarian technocratic surveillance state.
No smokes, limited booze, limited sugar (still subsidised), control of the internet, rabid firearms control, conyrolled and approved speech, social credit…you betcha.
This is about asserting dominance and nothing else.
The left ought to go back to the somewhat ad libbed lines of Stephen Fry in V for Vendetta.
PS, K.D., why are the pretty ones always crazy?
The damage is already done. Are you seriously suggesting people never see their families again?
Weren’t you going to crash border control points in Kenworths to see your own family in South Australia? What happened to that? Surely it wasn’t all talk?
So, Calli, once you are vaxed, you are not going to be sitting at home in the sackcloth and ashes as a gesture of solidarity?
Sigh. I know right?
Sackcloth and ashes was the idea, Sancho. Not going until all can go.
Apparently my gestures of solidarity with the unvaxxed aren’t righteous enough. I look on my phone and here is the third reminder to register with NSW health after the first shot. Still reluctant to do it. Make ‘em wait.
Today I’m seeing my sister for the first time since mid June 2021. Tonight she’s having a family dinner….with sons, wives, girlfriends, puppy dogs all invited. She lives in the inner-west but you’d have thought she lived in Pyongyang. I now understand how families felt when, at the border between east and west Berlin, families were occasionally allowed to meet up.
Frank, you are a weak POS…….how’s that for winning people over to the cause?
Naughty spoiled insulated brats don’t like the truth or reality.
But adults know, you are doing the worst thing for your families by submitting to tyranny.
I want to see my interstate elderly parents too, it keeps me up at night, they are old and frail and need help, and there is no one about to help them.
But submitting is not an option and they will not submit either.
Go on your fucking holidays, flash your Nazi approved papers, but don’t get miffed when people point out what you are………seems you people want it all.
No responsibility taken, no civic duty displayed, while no criticism tolerated!
If it were war, you’d be shot in the back for surrendering when the rest of the army is still fighting.
Keep in mind the authoritarian moral busybodies across the left and right in the past 30 years have destroyed the judicial system set up by Gladstone, Dicey, the Glorious Revolution, Sir Edward Coke…and we have moved back to something more akin to Stuart and Tudor tyranny.
Indictable offences triable as summary offences.
Degradation of the jury system and the presumption of innocence.
Absurdly high fines.
Morally wrong and insane strict and absolute liability offences.
Civil penalties, which should be straight up banned constitutionally.
Let’s not forget bad and stupid watershed decisions like Cole v Whitfield and Palmer v WA, or Pape v Commonwealth.
Here’s a tip.

Take some quercetin & vitamins C and D with you on your travels and travails. :smiley:
This is what happens when you directly quote actual comments made by lord high executioner struff over the last several months.
And strangely enough me and my family don’t care a hoot about your histrionics.
The question comes from a position that we’ve already surrendered and lost.
So, when you get told you can’t travel because you have eaten meat, or used up your carbon points, or any bullshit they come up in the future, (imagine what it will be like for our kids and grandkids, it’s great to know you flashed your papers to the Nazis for a holiday.
It’s hard not to see your relatives, but in your mind, as ol’ knuckles here shows, you are already defeated and surrendered, and in doing so, your family and your children will suffer so much more.
I wish there was an alternative, but there isn’t.
And the grown ups know it.

My father died in August. I watched his funeral, such as it was, on a laptop screen. Nine people were at it. My equally elderly mother, who now lives alone in her (and my) country Victorian town is not doing that well at all, having lost her companion of over 52 years.
To remedy that – despite my very strong ideological and practical objections – and because everything’s not about me, I had my first jab on 22 September and the second on Wednesday.
Because I’m returning to the ancestral seat in December to spend a few weeks with the woman who raised me, and to visit my father’s grave (for the first and potentially last time), and they are the only reasons. Not to keep working in a cube, and not to see the Aurora Borealis from the deck of a cruise ship.
I am NOT having my sainted, recently-widowed mother dying alone in her house – and she will, whether next year, or ten years from now – without having seen her firstborn since 2019 because some busking bread van driver in Queensland said so.
So. I have a question for you, St.Ruth.
Who the FUCK do you think you are to tell me I can’t go and see my remaining parent? I have in no way endorsed TyRanhy. It’s not for personal gain. It’s to maintain and strengthen family bonds, not break them as these idiot governments are intent on doing. If that means having a jab that didn’t kill me (and won’t, because history has repeatedly demonstrated that I am unkillable) then so be it.
Situations like the one calli finds herself in take more courage than you can dream of. Now fuck off and write me a protest song. Preferably a poorly-made cover, so you don’t have to put too much thought into it.
Presumably with some standing, and if necessary falling as well.
With that all-important caveat – ‘when we have a chance of winning’. Right?
Here’s another one. ‘Socialism has sat me on my arse.’ Rattle that spray can.
NSW are going to allow unvaxxed international arrivals, capped at 210 a week and must do hotel quarantine.
Some airlines must be willing to carry unvaxxed passengers.
I see RIO are making their case for imported labour, reducing production guidance due to “manpower shortages”.
It’s been grimly amusing watching the language is violence crowd
scrambling around with the goalposts, following the murder of Sir David Amess.
The excrable John McDonnell’s pro forma drew some unpleasant reminders of his past form:
Apparently a call for direct action from the man who wanted to lynch Maggie T and kneecap anyone who opposed Sinn Fein,
isn’t actually a call for that sort of direct action direct action,
in language-is-violence world.
Why don’t you take that line to Morrison? That’s all we really want. Government out of our medical choices.
Err, is there a non brutally way to stab a person to death?
And, no, I’m not making light of that regrettable incident.
That version of Telegraph Road was superb BoN. It sounded like an old man in the the last moments making peace with his God. On the the other hand that version of Kashmir (one of my songs) was mediocre, lost its edge. Listen to the Knebworth version. Just wow.
Sad to hear Sir Dragonet was put down.
It’s cruel to let an animal go on with a mobility injury.
Allowing Sir TaliDan to survive has only caused misery and hardship.
By not crashing your bread van into the roadblock at the border, St. Ruth, (like you said you would) you’ve submitted to TyRannY. You’re right where they want you.
The warrior poet. Yap yap yap.
Quite so, KD.
Truth is, many people find themselves in similar positions and have to make those choices.
The point is, rambling diatribes from ‘busking bread-van drivers’ (snort) are not in the top 50 factors in the decision process.
I honestly think that is where the anger comes from.
It is a rising feeling of impotence which can’t be expressed so must be dressed in a thin cloak of patriotism.
During the last mining boom in my field, 457’s were responsible for a large influx of mainly Pom’s and Americans with some Chinese and Africans. A few consultancies specialised in headhunting them. The results were very hit and miss. Some were on an extended holiday and had 1 eye on break where they were partying next on the Queensland coast, some very good and were obviously looking at staying if they could. Problem was I knew of Australians trying to break in and spending months longer than necessary to land a job. Most places wanted 2 years experience, big business doesn’t want the bother of training people.
Towards the end of my last tenure in Queensland post 457 visas when the visa system morphed I noticed the influx of sub continental professionals, most were next to useless I’m afraid to say. My opinion of that hasn’t changed. We may be getting quantity but not quality.
As for that immigration site linked, proves what a joke the system is, sportsman… Really, anything due to the arts should be scrapped with prejudice. Also why not just drop the charade, there’s not a whole more vocations left to add. The Uniparty is going to continue the course despite overwhelming public opposition to the present immigration levels and refugee intake.
I do so understand and they should be whipped up and down the street by everyone forced into such a decision.
However, you’re missing Struth’s point. If you submit it will only be the first of many such decisions, each one more onerous than the last. The only possible way out is to nip it in the bud by refusing to co-operate before they get the system bedded down, after which there’ll be no choice at all.
Yes.
It’s called surgical malpractice.
As if it needed to be said, I am fiercely against mandatory vaccinations.
I chose to get vaxxed. It would appear I got the one that doesn’t work, but that’s okay because it’s really hard to vaccinate against a cold.
Their ABCcess news,
A mentally ill Danish citizen did the arrow murders….
This news brought to you by OzVichy news services…

Divorce his sad arse.
Inspired by the Vogons, he be.
There are no manpower shortages in Aus, just lazy buggers being paid too much not to work.
Ranga – I really shouldn’t do music vids on a Friday night because I have earworms for weeks afterwards.
Really? Big of them. How about allowing unvaxxed locals to live normal lives?

Don’t know if it applies to flights to Oz, but I heard somewhere that Singapore Airlines offers vaxxed and unvaxxed flights.
Can’t Queenslanders currently travel to and from South Australia and vise versa without restrictions, other than the completion of a form? The South Australian government website didn’t say anything about vaccine restrictions, just zones.
Breadvan are my favourite NWOBHM and country pub folk music act.
The fact is most people threw their lot in with the Man long ago. Credit cards, mortgages, the o/seas holidays, keeping up with the Joneses. Debt up to the eyeballs. To service it there can be no interruption whatsoever to income. Then there is the family ties spread across the wide brown land. That’s life as we know it and for it to continue the turds governing us know the vast majority will comply just to get on with it. The bud has blossomed and died long ago.
Marvelous story:
When 2 Parents Tried To Make Their Young Daughter Practice What Greta Preaches…All Hell Broke Loose! (15 Oct)
I fervently hope they don’t get reported to the social services Karens.
Mandatory mastectomies’ for the over 40s.
Mandatory lap band surgery for fat bastards.
Because using this judges ‘reasoning” if a government wants to do so, and does so to an entire population group then your bodily autonomy must be sacrificed for the common good.
And if they choose to make it voluntary by removing your rights to work, associate or travel then when you give in it was voluntary.
https://www.abc.net.au/news/2021-10-15/judge-rules-out-challenges-to-nsw-covid-19-vaccination-orders/100543888
“So far as the right to bodily integrity is concerned, it is not violated as the impugned orders do not authorise the involuntary vaccination of anyone,” he said.
…
The orders imposed “blanket prohibitions” while offering exemption for the vaccinated, the State argued, meaning they incentivised vaccination but did not mandate it.
….
The judge found that if an order was made interfering with freedom of movement and differentiating on “arbitrary grounds” unrelated to public health risks, such as race or gender, it would be at “severe risk” of being found to be invalid.
So miners being made to have jabs, and the reasoning being touted is “because they are near Aboriginals” would be fine.
This is bad news. When asked I say I am waiting for Novavax as Novavax is the only one that remotely changes the risk side of my risk/reward calculation.
Makka Johnson is right…but also based, woke AF and very black pilled.

Spot on, KD at 9.08am.
Alas, the tyrants who now run Australia have made us turn on each other — exactly as they intended.
Depressed/Frightened,
Just back from my semi-regular cultural briefing by the Sunrise Set – hairdressers:
So greatful to Anna for keeping us safe;
Our NSW people keep saying that they are coming to
visit, I don’t want them here;
Covid is frightening (unspoken response “it’s harmless
to people who are brain dead”)
Poor Prince Charles never given a fair go, at least now
people are taking notice of him;
In response to my poked bear low-level growling!
Well at least Harry was clever and got out. Did you
watch him and Megan on Netflix?
I ask myself why I keep putting myself through this every few weeks. Truth is it is the closest thing to a BDSM session that a frail old body can tolerate.
Sports sh**ting licence. Is this the best way to get a high powered item? Seems that primary production reasons for owning said item limits what you can own. Are there any valid reasons for semi-aut*matics?
..
It’s not anyone on here doing that. No one on this blog can literally force you to do anything. At all.
It’s the government. The same government which makes it impossible for me to see my mother who has had a stroke, a fall and hip surgery this year.
I don’t begrudge you seeing yours, but keep in mind when you do all of us who can’t, and who it was that put us all in this position.
From the “Australian.”
Awww…
Wind Turbine Fall Down Go Boom (14 Oct)
Grey Ranga indeed but companies still want their cake and to eat it. Rio is another example. They also have the pull to make it happen, I did hear when I did contracts for BHP that the CEO had a direct line to the Premier. Probably overhyped union BS but the company due to it size and holding did and still does have some huge sway.
I believe Emirates and Qatar are taking unvaxxed passengers.
Good business practice – never turn your nose up at a paying passenger.
They’re nowhere near as good as Chickentruck, Pol.
We should be kind, but at least polite to each other.
Who in the press or Parliament is our friend?
Now, shooting the messenger is one thing, but show trials even before a “revolution” is comically sad.
Imagine Tsar Nick in 1928: welp, those Bolsheviks and Mensheviks all executed each other, now Russia is a prosperous liberal, yet still paternalistic democracy, with high levels of civil rights and prosperity…
Now imagine what enemies of principled liberalism and conservatism can say in 2040…well, we got our police state – anyone opposed to this ending up fighting with each other and never had any cut through with the public…
Well done, Megs – that reminds me, need to go and try and get that long overdue hair cut.
Three and a half months under house arrest and I now look like a 70 year old derro.
Thanks, Hitlerists!
..
…and I’m against getting vigorously rooted up the back passage by giraffes.
The question isn’t where your opion lies, but when the time comes that giraffes are coming at you with their enormous todgers out what are you doing to prevent it?
Arky:
Bang on. As mole’s link earlier said, it’s largely incentivisation. Doesn’t make it better, but I refuse to be lectured on the matter by lute-strumming tyre pumpers from across the country with no skin in the game. Couchill, not Churchill.
Oh, I haven’t forgetten. And no. No, I will will not forget.
Same here, Diogenes @9.29am.
But that is an ABC report so chances of truthfulness is exceedingly low.
