The Age is hinting that Andrews might lift passport rules in weeks, not ‘most of 2022’, as the pressure on businesses and volunteer groups to police his rules is unsustainable.

WASHINGTON D.C.—During a press conference today, Jen Psaki confirmed that President Biden will soon be visiting Waukesha to comfort the family of the traumatized SUV driver.
“President Biden has a big heart, and he truly cares for hurting people,” said Psaki. “He will be visiting Waukesha next week to console the family of Darrell Brooks, as they mourn the arrest of their loved one. Mr. Brooks was clearly the real victim here.”
“That Brooks guy’s a good guy, just made a mistake,” said Biden to the diaper pail in the corner of his restroom. “He was obviously scared and was running away from white supremacy or something like that. Made a wrong turn and then ran over 70 people while zig-zagging to hit as many as possible. Just slipped up, is all! Happens to the best of us! Come on, man!”

Bern, earlier and apropos of ex Chief Plod Fuller:
Yes. Yes he will fail in the private sector, just like alllll the other chiefs and deputy chiefs that prepare for their exit by approving courses for themselves that involve Executive Masters’ Degrees and company directors’ courses.
One of the myriad of reasons they fail is, as bern so accurately noted, that they no longer have the nursery of sycophants around them they are used to. Most have never had a job other than that one, then very shortly after they start they decide that all that icky actual police work involving actual crooks and getting hurt isn’t for them, and then it’s office jobs and cultivating sponsors from above.
Look at – just from a Vicco perspective – Comrie, Nixon, Overland, Lay and Ashton. All have been used to prepare ‘diagnostic reports’ on various other things (including other police forces) post-retirement, and all have been ignored.
Overland in particular tried to run a council they same way he ran a police force, and said council were that horrified they were able to get him booted – and for a city council in Mongyang, that’s really saying something.

This is a particularly bad school shooting. The 4 dead kids were all top shelf and the punk who did it left a trail of psychological warnings. His parents look like ratbags and are currently on the run.
I can see the 2nd Amendment being qualified by Red Flag laws and psychological criteria.

My plan: Make a fake silicone deltoid starting just where your singlet strap sits and going down to just above elbow. Put 0.5 mm aluminium underneath it, make it about 20mm thick. Wear a singlet and use this to conceal the joint between it and flesh and blood. Go to somewhere completely unqualified to deliver vaccinations such as a chemist. Wear a shirt and unbutton it and slip it down off your shoulder to receive the clot shot.
Yep, my RSVP would be very NSFW.
Oh wow, how this UnHerd interview has exploded on the interwebs.
I am over this semblance of democracy in a “bigly” way. In my experience, the General Manager & his underlings run local government. The elected Councillors are fundamentally grandstanders. Some mean well & think they can make a difference. They can’t . It is a bureaucratic structure through & through. Occasionally, a very strong Mayor – like Frank Sartor when he was Mayor of Sydney City Council, & Clover Moore who has very strong backing of staff – can dominate. But that is relatively rare.
I will not be taking part in this charade & will vote informal to stop be fined.
Depends where the family reunion is being held. Private home, there’s no excuse to uninvite the unvaxxed. If it’s a restaurant or club, the venue’s rules apply.
And yes. It’s sh*t.

I’m at the Conservative end of the electorate.

That was great, Prime Minister.
You nailed the tweeny instagram influencer vibe perfectly.
Pssst….that’s how the Local Government Act was designed!
Its a goddamned joke.
IIRC, local councils were actually better when we elected mayors – roads were not totally shit when I was a kid. Even parts of Sidonee and NSW towns have roads that like a 3rd world nation.
When my name was ticked off, I told the lass at the table that I’d vote for anyone who promised to get rid of the stupid masks pronto.
She concurred, eyes a-twinkle.
On masks, I have noticed that fewer and fewer people are wearing the stupid designer ones, opting for the generic surgical blue. The novelty has worn off, political numpties.
The elected Councillors are fundamentally grandstanders. A magnet for the untalented and self important as AJ once said. Paying them was a very bad move too.
Anyway, if you are a budding career pollimuppett whose gunna save the world, the council is a great start until your talents are truly recognised allowing you to be PM or Premier or UN Sec Gen.

Although this bit might be a clue:
Any Taswegians or sea level geeks able to advise?
Fraser was certainly a harbinger of things to come from the Liberals.
Here, in his own words, he lists his greatest achievements:
“I think multiculturalism, the inquiry into post arrival services for migrants – the Galbally report – human rights, law-based issues, reform of administrative law, the Administrative Appeals Tribunal, the Human Rights Commission, because these things are all interrelated. They all go to how governments treat people.”
The Liberal Party since 1975 has spent most of its political capital establishing the Left’s agenda.
The only exception I can think of is Abbott restoring border sovereignty.
Re Omicron: assume it’s just the expected evolution of the virus. If it’s as innocuous as they say – that’s a good thing. The great fear is that Gertrude VanDen Bossche is right & global vaccination will drive a more deadly virus to develop.

Sitting under a tree starting to work through the ALP’s emissions policy – including its (remarkably detailed) economic modelling package.
First impressions:
1) You can immediately see why ‘industry’ (ie industry bodies dominated by businesses with deep roots in the renewables scam) have a hard-on for little Chris Bowen.
Team Albanese is proposing to spend $20 billion (so, $40-$60+ billion real world) on network infrastructure to support widespread Thief Sector rollout of yummy, low risk, 18%+ ROI renewable/storage/hydrogen projects. Enough to guarantee a 10-year stream of massive executive bonuses at AGL, Origin, KPMG, Energy Australia…
2) The economic underpinnings are laughable. Based on a $20 billion Fed-spend, plus a further $50 billion splash by private sector rent-seekers:
Sure Buddy. A simple DCF model of an even $50bn capital/return tariff spread – with IRR set to 18% – tells a different story.
3) 435,000 new jobs by 2030 – including 125,000 in construction of the new transmission infrastructure.
Or possibly only 4,000.
But wait, there’s more:
But no detail on what the cheap power jobs are about, or where these skilled infrastructure constructors are coming from. Or going to, post construction.
Canberra? India, perhaps.
4) The Albo/Bowen ‘roadmap’ is just as reliant on future cargo cult technology gains as Moron’s.
If the media don’t immediately pull the wings off this awful gobshite and all its unsupported aspirational nonsense they are in the tank.

So 1.25mm per year. We should panic immediately! Another metre of sea level rise will only take 800 more years. Maybe Albo could produce green jerbs and protect us by building lots of dikes, like the Dutch do. Very small dikes.
Mainstream TV is a psyop.
Saw an ad last night on ABC for the latest adaptation of the H. E. Bates ‘Larkin’ books (Darling buds of May, etc.) These were originally written as postwar fantasies of rural hedonism for a miserable, grey austerity Britain and are just about the whitest things you can imagine. So who’s the first character you see in the ad? A black guy. He plays the tax inspector who’s come to bring the anarchic Larkins to book, but who will obviously succumb to their carefree way of life. Funny thing to be making in any Western nation at the present time. Or maybe this time the Larkins will come to see their civic duty to pay high taxes, stop brewing their own booze, cut out eating meat, stop smoking, stop bonking and vote Greens.

IIRC, local councils were actually better when we elected mayors – roads were not totally shit when I was a kid.
When the Town Clerk/Shire Clerk became an overpaid “Chief Executive Officer”, and other titles were “upgraded”, the fairly average administrators who occupied those positions started to believe that they really were Masters of Public Administration. Then everything turned to sh1t, because they remained the same fairly average administrators, but with swollen heads.

What’s he got against indigenous folk living on their land?
Problems is, the background check was done on daddy because he bought the gun. Not the kid.
Why? Because his precious little 15 year old psychopath wanted one for Christmas and the kid was too young to purchase it himself.
Next the parents will say that he never ever exhibited any anti-social or unbalanced behavior in the past and this is a complete shock. Morons might even believe them.
I suspect Taswegian sea level rise is only half the typical tide gauge value of about 1.6mm/yr* because Tasmanistan is still rebounding from the Ice Age glaciers melting. Plus a tiny bit of residual plate tectonics from the old eastern coast subduction zone.

I have always enjoyed his music very much, but, have not indulged in recent years because he was one of the loudest berating bands and singers for performing in Israel.

http://classic.austlii.edu.au/au/legis/cth/consol_act/ea190180/s28.html
EXCISE ACT 1901 – SECT 28
Only licensed producers to produce tobacco leaf etc.
(1) A person who does not hold a producer licence must not intentionally produce material that is tobacco seed, tobacco plant or tobacco leaf knowing, or being reckless as to whether, the material is tobacco seed, tobacco plant or tobacco leaf.
Penalty:
(a) for tobacco seed or tobacco plant–2 years imprisonment or 500 penalty units; and
(b) for tobacco leaf–2 years imprisonment or the greater of:
(i) 500 penalty units; and
(ii) 5 times the amount of duty, worked out under the regulations, being the duty that would be payable if the tobacco leaf had been manufactured into excisable goods and entered for home consumption on the penalty day.
Note: See section 4AA of the Crimes Act 1914 for the current value of a penalty unit.
(2) A person who does not hold a producer licence must not produce tobacco seed, tobacco plant or tobacco leaf.
Penalty: 100 penalty units.
(3) Strict liability applies to subsection (2).

The area had a detailed Geological survey in the 1970’s.The area like the rest of Tasmania is very complex. At a hunch from the map on page 9 and the photos I saw, Isle of the Dead would be the interbedded Permian Mudstone & Sandstone formation around Port Puer. Now without the hardness or geotechnical data and due to the complexity of the area, I am not going out on that limb but mudstones are generally softer than silt or sandstones.
You are probably right smelling bovine excrement with the climate change angle, could be any number of causes and like much more benign.
I just found out that I am unable to go to my local council tip due to resisting the vax. Clown world is real.
It’s Local Council elections here in NSW. I voted a few days ago. Just walked up to Oxford Street Paddington and saw ugly duckling Daisy Turnbull swanning around wearing a sweater emblazoned with the words “Team Turnbull” on it. This is no accident. She’s doing deliberately.
Thanks, BoN. I was intrigued about a chunk of the island falling into the sea. The winter storms around there are pretty fierce, I expect. Plenty of erosion going on.
Still, presumably the local authority smells the possibility of some gubbmint moolah if they bleat loudly enough about ‘climate change.’
“The Liberal Party since 1975 has spent most of its political capital establishing the Left’s agenda.”
Liberty quote.
Couple of ladies down here at the protest walking around (nearly naked) wearing boards that proclaim that “Apparently clothes are not essential”.
A warmish day, thankfully.
Numbers have fallen off significantly, as I suspected they would.
Just read the submarine geology part. Steep underwater gradients, from drowned river valleys formed during previous sea level regressions. Could be some subsidence below the waterline as well.
Probably afraid you’ll infect the bin chickens.

Cassie,
did you punch her in the face?
“Cassie,

I felt like it. I’ve met her numerous times….and I can attest to her being a nasty, rude, entitled, snobbish piece of garbage….but with parents like that, she had no hope.
Mater,
I started reading your post thinking it would be numbers has fallen off his perch.
That was a dirty trick to play on a poor old cripple.
Roger,
in the mid to late 70’s, my music consisted mainly of listening to the radio and saving to see Aussie bands. At that time, the best Oz music was heard in the pubs. They were great venues and a lot of the bands were very interactive. I saw them all, including Split Enz when they were wearing their original clown suits. Unfortunately, I was never to see ACDC as Bon Scott had not long passed.
The only overseas band I saw was Rockpile.
Surely the Lebs are Frasers greatest achievement? The original goat herders that showed what was to come. Ah, multikulti.
Still…not a shabby turnout.
Respectable.
Cassie,
next time a surreptitious tripping or an accidental stumble on your part when you just “happen” to grab her clothes to save yourself, and then end up landing on her, for cushioning, of course.
Actually, it’s a very simple and unobtrusive, easily learnt Judo move.
I can but hope.

Bern, earlier and apropos of ex Chief Plod Fuller:
Yes. Yes he will fail in the private sector, just like alllll the other chiefs and deputy chiefs that prepare for their exit by approving courses for themselves that involve Executive Masters’ Degrees and company directors’ courses.
One of the myriad of reasons they fail is, as bern so accurately noted, that they no longer have the nursery of sycophants around them they are used to. Most have never had a job other than that one, then very shortly after they start they decide that all that icky actual police work involving actual crooks and getting hurt isn’t for them, and then it’s office jobs and cultivating sponsors from above.
Look at – just from a Vicco perspective – Comrie, Nixon, Overland, Lay and Ashton. All have been used to prepare ‘diagnostic reports’ on various other things (including other police forces) post-retirement, and all have been ignored.
Overland in particular tried to run a council they same way he ran a police force, and said council were that horrified they were able to get him booted – and for a city council in Mongyang, that’s really saying something.
Well said KD.
It’s true of the other emergency services too. It’s like they just want to wear the pretty uniform but don’t like getting dirty. They get themselves as far away from operations as possible, then they become hostile to the operational personnel.
They start becoming champions and allies of whatever stupid ideas the government are pushing and have the same tin ear as the PM.
Once the admin and bureaucracy are in their ear, they forget that they exist because of operational staff. Without them, they would have no reason to exist.
That they are held in contempt by operational personnel goes without saying…….
She’s super cute. 🙂
NOT

JC,
what the hell was that?!?

That’s how ridiculous she has become. Bland generalized statements.
@covid19crusher is another good Twitter site to follow
Claire Lemon.
Yes, she is a dud.
Most that pass trials do – many of them have very few adverse effects and are effective for decades.
COVID vaccines permitted in Australia, thus far, are not.
Claire Lehmann is an evil piece of trash.
I see I have committed a musical faux pas. I have a nasty habit of separating art from artist.
Re-education is my only hope.
Looks that way, woolfe. He was getting traction. Needed to get him early.
I second Mater’s reporting here. It’s a much smaller crowd than the last two weeks. Still a decent crowd, given that people have responsibilities that don’t end on weekends. Plenty of familiar faces and flags. Am still seeing some newbies, too (welcome, Japan!).
So, here we are.
None of the federation’s checks-and-balances safeguards have protected what was left of our already much-diminished rights. And the normies’ attempts at a People Power approach hasn’t achieved what they hoped for (because of course People Power is just another example of the left’s perpetual money-go-round).
Granted, I’ve been happy to turn out for protests because it shows the government’s lack of legitimacy. Plus, ordinary people need to know they aren’t alone.
Well, now they know.
Yet Victoria now lives under a dictatorial enabling act while the federal government, courts and major political parties sit on their collective thumb.
Barring any surprise relief, the ‘normal’ political process has just ended.
A new stage begins.
Hmmm…
Yep, human lives are just sooo precious we have to be allowed to kill them before they’re born.
My body my choice, eh Ms Lehmann? What a precious hypocrite.
Also, like Janet Rice and Sarah Hanson Dung, insists that women cannot defend themselves from murdering rapists.
Someone else:
Claire Lemon – “It isn’t a state run camp if you can still take selfies while you’re there ”
Because nothing says libertarianism like publicly shilling for ANY form of state run ” camps ” .
Aussie Cossack just to the left of me and Mc.
He’s looking sharp in the Versace sunglasses.

– Technology and the scientific method are good.
Perhaps so, but the scientific method is not the same as “The Science”. Indeed, the latter is a complete rejection of the scientific method.
Nothing controversial there.
Too true – although she might also have added ‘rare’.
What? Merely be dint of being called vaccines? That would not be consistent with the previous statement. If instead she means medicines that bestow immunity (or at least resistance) then it is tautology – things that work, work.
It is a pity. I have enjoyed Quillette. I had assumed she was left wing from her profession, but was not sure because of the tenor of the place. It was only ever a guess based on a remote assumption because she did not give herself away in anyway plainer. If she was a lefty she was the good sort* open to open discussion. But on this she is clearly being tone deaf, and has missed the nub of the argument – whether these are truly vaccines and whether they ought to be forced on people against their will.
* This also begs the word ‘rare’.
Start up an award-winning Equity and Diversity initiative, attend lots of Confetences on equlaity and equity, wear many coloured ribbons, host morning teas, sponsor Women in STEM programs, appear in many TV ads spouting feminist and environmentist boilerplate and motherhood statements, fawningly tongue-bathe each other on interviews at Their ABC, Teh Grauniad and The Ageist and maybe land at least one Australian Of The Year.
Eating vast quantities of Sate and Federal tax dollars without generating any value in return and producing no solutions of any sort to sea level changes goes without saying…
#It’sGoodMakeWorkIfYouCanGetIt
Sate
Should be State.
At time of typing, Rukshan is nowhere to be viewed! Topher’s live feed was unwatchable with massive buffering.
Pogria
Turnbuckle’s kid. She’s horrifying.
G’day all!
I notice a missing thread. Apologies if I screwed it up.
There are several good sources of sea level information which repudiate alarmist hysteria: Berkeley, PSMSL are 2 good ones and here is NOAA for Fort Denison:

Technology and the scientific method are good.
Only if you ignore The Ruby Princess Petri dish.
I have been thinking about the figures relating to the Ruby Princess provided by Flyingduk.
We haven’t really opened an effective front on “Da Science”, there’s a whole massive pile there ready to be used.
A real live test with our “elderly and most vulnerable” puts all their fucking modelling to shame.
But we need herd immunity! Well arseholes, we already have it if you choose to look at the data. Without vaccination and without mandatory vaccination.
Erm, I think we can all do that, calli.
State approved Science is neo-Lysenkoism.
Excellent. I hope they show it live on all the networks, with the accompanying signing and leftard voice overs, with BLM chanting and cheering outside. While Biden shows off his dimness , working out why tf he’s in this black household.
