Very cynical, Wally. 🙂
Sancho, absolutely. I expected better from my bilateral knee replacement. However, apart from the rehab in hospital, I wasn’t able…
accusing them of eating their patients Eating Fido? That’s terrible! Dog chow mein, yum.
I have been a journalist all my life. My instinct is that Hildebrand is being paid to be a political…
It’s a very strange world indeed when one finds oneself in general agreement with John Pilger.
Or another way to look at it.
Develop your own views.
Then don’t give a shit who agrees or disagrees with you.
I used to like Rod Marsh in me yoof.
Those days of world series cricket nearly got me interested in the sport.
Then of course they bowled underarm.
Never watched a second since.
And seventy four is a bit young.
With the nation being taken over by tyrannical traitors, and all that it entails, KD laments that the blog doesn’t turn itself over to full mourning mode for the next week regarding a cricketer, which sort of makes my point this morning.
However, those were good times and Lillie and Marsh and the rest were a product of a healthier, happier, more exciting Australia.
When Australia was fun.
RIP Rod Marsh.
I’ve had a top notch education, comrade.
You’ve been doing that for a while now………..
sTan Grant’s reverse-Michael Jackson skin treatment regime is running a bit off the rails. He’s looking more Kamahl than Koori, I have to say.
I still need vegetable oil.
And only a Manlet posing as a Hero of the Highways will do.
Pull your fingers out, Cats.
Struth only has 45 upticks.
He is barely half-validated, and will continue to Nuff about and be a scrollable nuisance until you all signal your agreement with him…
Of course Johanna never had to fight in Vietnam or the Japs in WW2 etc.
You said it was with Keating.
People were still alive that witnessed the attrocities of the japs and fought them etc, Johanna.
You know there was still a lot of anger toward nips back then.
And much of it with very good reason.
Did shit like that ever cross your insulated, safe little public service existence back then, and how your free nation was still there to pay your bigotted self wages?
“That’s correct but the question is, or should be, why are they still under construction?”
Because the contractors are not stupid, that’s why. All such contractors will get their money and/or compensation for lost profits as part of the contract cancellation clauses.
Case in point: desalination plants. We didn’t need them. We don’t use them. But they got built on an “emergency!” alert, and we are still (unless the contract has run out or been paid out) paying for the bastards. Once the contract expires, they will rot until some developer get approval to create luxury apartment blocks or something on the site, or some other “use” for the land they consume is “required”.
This fixation with upticks says so much more about you and your deperate desire for acceptance.
Who’s looking at that shit?
For those with an Oz sub, they’ve just opened comments on the Q&A action.
Bruce of N – as the person who first mentioned the admirable Mongolian band, The Hu – here is my question.
Do you find that Youtbe has cut out the visuals – only the sound is left in their videos?
I can imagine.
These days the same creatures are on social media.
Being instructed to reply to them in a civil manner would stick in my craw too.
I always check my upticks. I have no shame.
Kookaburras are terrestrial tree kingfishers of the genus Dacelo native to Australia and New Guinea, which grow to between 28 and 47 cm (11 and 19 in) in length and weigh around 300 g (11 oz)
You mean like Struth yet again exposing himself as an obnoxious canute, looking for excuses to be outrageous for his imaginated audience?
Blimey, I never thought I’d agree with the angry Gen-Xer on something…
“Struthsays:
March 4, 2022 at 11:25 am”
You are trying to justify the unjustifiable.
Oh, and as a birdie person, may I make a complaint about crows (Australian ravens) hanging about here recently. They are loud and noisy, and their mournful cries might quell a carnival. Presumably there are a group of them – is the term A Murder of Crows?
Possibly the title of a novel The Divine Agatha never had the time to write.
You clearly are, Struth.
Your carry-on gets deeper and deeper into obnoxious, craven stupidity and provocation every time you log on here. And every tike you do, there are more upticks on your blatherings.
If you didn’t demonstrate your boorishness and utter lack of wisdom with every post you make, I would suspect you were trying to play chicken with the site owner to see if he’d ban you, then go cry and bullshit about him elsewhere.
I have two adolescent kookas who regularly terrorise the butcherbird family (now numbering nine). They have discovered that an enormous blue tongue lizard is lurking under the aircon unit and occasionally comes out for a bit of sun.
So the rotters sit in the tree above, awaiting their opportunity. The lizard, being crafty, lies very close to the front of the unit, making a swoop and skewer almost impossible.
The birds live in hope that it will venture further…
Yes.

The angst, sadness and anger of losing the original Cat and then having a credibility beating with Covid is on constant display. Again. Just can’t let it go can we.
Dover, hat tip, a valiant and noble effort to continue the Cat but it’s hard to recreate the old magic.
Imagine the level of hatred that justifies this.
And then remember that this is our legal system.
Fascinating observations from a couple of guys who know tyres.
How cheap Chinese tires might explain Russia’s ‘stalled’ 40-mile-long military convoy in Ukraine (3 Mar, via Instapundit)
In short the vehicles have been sitting in the sun without use for a long time, and are apparently fitted with cheap Chinese military tyres. So the wheels are literally falling off if they try to go off road in the springtime mud.
A tweet that has the original comments is here:
https://twitter.com/KarlMuth/status/1499185800172474371
Or, if you are a Deputy Commissioner of the Northern Territory Police, it also applies to a group of Constables. Especially if you accidentally livestream the conversation where you said it to Facebook.
There was mucho outrage amongst the populace when this occurred, particularly as it was just before the trial of the bloke for the Yuendumu shooting was about to begin. Such was the public rage that the Commissioner and former NT Government and remote housing spendthrift, Chalker, published a statement in which he asked people to ‘be kinder to each other’. Seriously.
This trial is almost done. Defence are so confident at the complete lack of any evidence of murder presented by the prosecution that they’ve put the accused on the stand as part of the defence case.
This is almost unprecedented in moida trials. Epic fallout is inbound.
Elvis, nothing is ever the same second time around.
Embrace the difference! 😀
HOW MANY BOOSTERS are you going to take?
Icky letters from people who’ve watched their mates beheaded or lost their loved ones fighting nips upsets public servants.

Never skimp on tyres.
Never skimp on tyres.
Conti all the way.
Now you’ve made me look at them I see why you are upset, comrade.
Remember daylight savings. it was news at eleven here in cane toad county.
We don’t have that bullshit up here either.
Another plus.
Jarryd Hayne to face third trial on sexual assault allegations.”
Words fail me.
Heh. I remember not that long ago a couple of the leftwing fuckwits here smugly stating that everyone should be respected.
LOL.
Well, none.
That link goes to a piece in something called National File, which is an rsrsrrs-level ‘Researcher X has written many articles, and said in a Zoom meeting’ type of thing. Further adding to its credibility, or lack thereof is the article right next to it on that site. It is an appeal to send money to Ukraine.
Yessssss, well. I might give that one a miss.
The Manlet is back to petty anklebiting.
Poor manlet. Its audience went away…
The government of Australia is supporting Ukraine.
You are already sending money to Ukraine.
St Ruth is clearly unable to bear being a nobody at the furniture store, despite his compelling arguments.

I only wear a blue singlet so no one thinks I’m a poofta pansy. So far it’s working.
As opposed to the centre of the universe here?
Don’t put yourself out Johanna, I’ll be gone soon, looks like the weather is clearing for a bit.
I’m here when I’m bored, that is all.
Don’t forget Big Tobacco.
Cute assumption there, Manlet.
What if they were all Blue-Singelet waving spacktards like you, mindlessly parroting the ignorance their parents parroted from their parents and so forth. You know, the sort of folks that even the most salt of the earth Blue Collar people cannot stand to be around?
I have no doubt that when you drove, you were known to be exactly that sort of person, and everyone you pulled up next to at the truck-stops suddenly felt a need to run their compressors at full pelt. Or realised that they were “Really, really late mate! Gotta go!”
So how fucking bored must choo choo man be !!!
Fuck me swingin’.
Do you do anything comrade?
You’re here 24/7.
Unionised employment, what a fucking joke.
Struth goes full Grigory again:

Johanna – Just had a quick check of a couple of Hu vids: I get the visuals and the audio.
However I use a VPN and Brave. The former stuffs up geoblocking and the latter eliminates YT ads. The VPN also gets around cute ISP censorship, which is still in place for BlazingCatFur last I looked. Amazing how ISPs seem to want to save the world from incorrect thought.
Poop attack perp told cops ‘s–t happens’ before being released without bail
The sicko who allegedly smashed his own feces in a Bronx straphanger’s face joked with cops that “s–t happens” before sneering to a Bronx judge, “F–k you, bitch.”
Frank Abrokwa, 37, was busted Monday at his homeless shelter in connection to the revolting Feb. 21 attack, according to cops and police sources.
Upon arrest, he made light of the attack, quipping to cops, “S–t happens. Haha. This is a s–tty situation. Haha,” Bronx Assistant District Attorney Grace Phillips said during Abrokwa’s arraignment late Tuesday.
Ultimately, Abrokwa was freed without bail — because the charges against him were not bail-eligible under the state’s bail reform laws, despite prosecutors’ request for him to be held on $15,000 bond, or $5,000 cash.
Abrokwa has 22 prior unsealed arrests dating back to 1999, and dozens of sealed arrests, according to authorities and police sources.
I think you’re missing the word ‘craven’ at least once in your assessment there, Old Bloke.
But apart from that, 110% agree.
Now, we watch for the IDF to carry out a re-run of the Osirak raid…
Having a look at the Twitter stuff on the sidebar, how long do you think funding will be available for vaxx v no vaxx studies for The Science?
I think they’ll notice the no pants first.
Yeah, just like that Rex cunt, who keeps posting bullshit as if its opinion is relevant and saving us from incorrect thought. LOL
People are pretty comfortable with that once I explain some of my other lifestyle choices.
I did not know the Chinese were so offended by Mongolians.
Talk about the CCP exploiting long-held cultural memories to push an agenda.
As the Hu (and the Mongolian folk saying) declares, How Strange, How Strange…
Poor Glowie.
Caught out again, eh?
Tell you masters to be more subtle with the scripting next time.
Or move to Japan. 🙂
For St. Ruth. Robert Craddock:
There was mention of the underarm delivery earlier this morning. Watch the tape again, and you’ll see Marsh going down the pitch shaking his head at skipper Greg Chappell, and telling him not to do it.

RIP, Iron Gloves.
Rex – Actually Singaporeans are saving me from naughty Canadian thoughtcrime (BCF linked the Unzud mosque vid). I don’t know what is causing Johanna to not see Mongolian rock throat singers. As for YT ads I sort of think I should let them through, if that helps pay the artist, but on other hand I detest Goolag.
Teh Australian reports A Current Affair has been caught up in litigation over Oscar the cavoodle. The Beetrooter was unavailable for comment.

He was always a heavy set bloke and they liked to party.

Technology is strange.

And look at Cricket these days.
FMD it’s embarrassing when you think about the past and actual men playing sport.
Did Palmer buy Hitler’s car or not?
If not we know that the Liberals and Labor are both using their position in the government and their little mates in the meeeeedia, to completely fabricate fake news to destroy their political enemy in the lead up to the election.
First the complete fabrication he had covid last week.
Second that he’s “buying hitlers car from a Russian billionaire” – which is how it was put to me by a complete covid karen NPC retard today.
Getting back to those tyres on the stalled convoy of Russian military vehicles…did someone buy Chinese copies of the Michelins ordered and pocket the difference?
It’s the way they roll in Russia. Putin is alleged to have made his first millions by stiffing the people of St. Petersburg out of much needed food supplies in the early ’90s. All they got was two tankers of cooking oil.
He didn’t buy the car and he had the flu.
Thank you Knuckle Dragger.
I – IV. Enjoyed every one of them.
He was always a heavy set bloke and they liked to party.
We’ll never know, and that’s how it goes.
Why are folk finding this demise strange? .. he was 74 and obese .. lotza folk throw in the towel by 74 ..
nothing unusual .. FFS!
I’m 74, a sight fitter than Rod Marsh (going off pix) yet my 1st thought on waking of a morning is, “Still here” … LOL!
Not inconceivable. The thought that the Russians might lack the capacity to make that sort of gear in-house is a surprise, but more likely in a recent era of tight budgets, limited general funding, efforts to modernise equipment and professionalise from a conscript to an all-volunteer military, any opportunity to save buck here and there by contracting out would have been welcomed.
Military-Industrial Complexes gonna Military-Industrial Complex, after all.
And lack of use does nasty things to any mechanical gear.
Aa far as the impending rasputitsa goes, one hopes the Russians have a contingency plan available for 2-3 weeks’ time when the thaw is complete, and all their offroad movements and advances to contact on the eastern side of the Dneipr are conducted in seas of mud.
Tyres, no tyres or tracks, that stuff is evil. As the last lot of folks to invade the place found out…
Speaking of the great DK…he’s responsible for one of the funnier scorecard entries:

Amazingly she is an ALP fan girl
ABC: ‘Fire broke out at nuclear plant after Russian attack.’ But it will still be a ‘nuclear disaster.’
I did not know the Chinese were so offended by Mongolians.
They have some… history.
I cant find the link now, but there is on battle a larger Chinese army lost to the Mongols where after their surrender the Chinese blokes were raped before being sent back home.
Now that would really, really not be great for national pride.
Based on the job the Chinese did with the Perth Childrens Hospital I think the WA government might go back dealing with the ghost of Len Buckeridge and BCG.
ABC. Apparently the fire has re-located to a training facility at the nuclear plant.
Unsure if it true, but apparently one commentator at a cricket test between England and the West Indies made the following description:

Biden Sending Secret Weapon, Kamala Harris, back to Europe to Solve Ukraine Crisis
March 3, 2022 | Sundance
Apparently, the people behind Joe Biden have spotted an opportunity to optically improve the foreign policy resume of Kamala Harris before pudding brain is removed from office.
shatterzzz, just now:
Of course you are. Marsh is dead.
Clive Palmer is also currently fitter than Rod Marsh.
I’m old enough to remember when the Australian government didn’t care about the history of antiquities that were being imported, regardless of how dark & how muddy their chain of ownership was.
Be watching the enemies of Australia with the digital bill and the restricting cash bill.
It’s the social credit scheme of the WEF, and Justin Trudeau is sneeking it in now in Canada under cover of Ukraine.
Telegram channel using web cam near there reckons there was a bit of a shooting match in the carpark well away from the plant. Admin building on fire, and that’s about it. Russians supposedly trying to negotiate a similar deal to Chernobyl.
Meanwhile western media claims we’re all going to die…
“A presidential visit is a heavier logistical lift,” the source said. “The vice president has a smaller footprint and is historically more nimble.”
That’s one way of putting it.
That’s going to be an impressive feat to sneak a Social Credit System for Canada under Ukraine.
The two nations are separated by some 3,926 nautical miles of ocean and Continental European landmass, after all. And relatively few usable tunnels if you go by the most direct route (phrasing)…
But you just said it was a Canadian system being snuck under Ukraine without its consent?
I’m not sure now who has the bigger kink- Justin Trudeau or you?
Not that I’m kink-shaming or anything…
I went Visual, Roger.
You’re paying for my brain bleach!

Unsure if it true, but apparently one commentator at a cricket test between England and the West Indies made the following description:
“The bowler’s Holding…
The Batsman’s Willey..”
Yes it is. Ian Botham was commentating a Windies / England match with Michael Holding and after the lunch break said something along the lines of, “At the risk of repeating history.” “The commentators Holding, the Umpire’s Willey.” Peter Willey now being an umpire.
I am thinking of an entourage of hyper-padded packing cases, marked ‘FRAGILE’ and ‘THIS WAY UP.’
I suspect that Joe would not be the easiest to bubble-wrap and tape for transit, either… 🙂
Are rhey freaking kidding? That the US government would send someone with no record of success in anything in politics to stop what could spiral into world war III tells you everything you need to know about the dangerous Biden clownshow. Tucker Carlson Tonight (starts at 2m45ss).

This is freaking hilarious. You have to watch until the end.
I just saw you mention them, ftb. Incredible stuff. Dear oh dear our media is dreadful.
Is he, though? I don’t love or hero-worship the guy, but I wish we had a leader who stands for Australian interests in the way Putin stands for Russian interests.
In what way is Russia going into Ukraine different from the US going into Iraq in 2003?
Exactly! I knew the Ukes were up to no good that time they invaded neighbour Poland and looked like they might continue and sweep through to Hungary and then Austria. No knowing where that might have ended if it wasn’t for Russia stopping them with “Special Operation #1”.
Then when their leader boasted about his progress towards getting tactical nuclear weapons, and later took a whole plan load of people hostage, we knew he was a bad egg.
Sanctions didn’t seem to work, and there was a lot of street theatre involving supposed funerals of children down the main street of Kiev, with the leader blaming the west for depriving them of medicines, even though he was making a mint off sending oil out in trucks through Moldavia. So many palaces were built on vast allotments using that cash flow, and it was later suspected they might be hiding places, front for more nefarious activities.
There were no proper elections, he was destined to be dictator for life, and always had a paid cheer-squad around for the cameras. Of course we were never sure it was him, as he had some body/face doubles. When war threatened he sent his entire air force to Bellarus.
The internationally sanctified agents who were sent in to search for WMD were kept hopping around in a suspicious fashion. One of the inspectors (an Australian) complained bitterly about this, saying it indicated something very fishy or fissiony was going on. He later recanted completely, as did another one, an American.
Yes, it’s all so similar.
I’ve heard the Ukraine Hotties go downhill rapidly at age 35. I prefer a Tartar. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oXpUhEfBCbU I didn’t say Tart. Or maybe A Georgian. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1B2tXs8CX6I
Putin stands for Putin’s interests.
I’d say Putin stands up for Russia’s interests more any of the rubbish WEF-UN-EU-Multinational agents that pose as western ‘leaders’.
Still getting up to speed on the last ten years in Eastern Europe, but it sounds like the US has been goading Putin since 2014.
That old line of getting the paper in the morning to read the obituaries, if you’re not in them it is worth getting dressed.
Since I came out of hospital, as my knees have improved, I’ve gone on small walks. Today, given that there’s been a break after weeks of non-stop rain, I decided to walk to Surry Hills. Along the way I couldn’t help but notice that all the retail shops have LGBTQI rainbow flags prominently displayed in their windows…even Woolworths was decorated in LGBTQI rainbow flags and the trite “Happy Mardi Gras” banners. God forbid if you didn’t do this or no doubt you would be targeted for censure, condemnation and cancellation and then I remembered that tomorrow night is Mardi Gras. Apparently there’s no parade (amen) but there’ll be a big party at the Sydney Cricket Ground. When I got to Surry Hills the place was full of clusters of gay men…more so than usual. I thought to myself, I really do live in Gayville!
Anyway the walk exhausted me….my first long walk in months.
Local Oaf:
Excellent summation, Local Oaf.
Guilt belongs to the individual who commits the crime. Not their children or their parents, not their neighbours or their companions. Not even their countrymen or race.
Just before I left on my long walk, I looked at the Oz front page and the headlines screamed screeched “Ukrainian nuclear power plant was on fire”
Now back after my walk, I look at the Oz front page and the headline is “Ukrainian authorities have said the safety of the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant was now secured, after a fire broke out Friday when the station was shelled by Russian forces.”
Apparently, after shelling, a fire started however the bad evil Russians allowed firefighters into the plant, and that the nuclear safety of the plant was now guaranteed.
In my (extensive) cctv files are a number of videos, from all angles, of people going for a police officer’s gun.
It is more common than many may at first realise.
It is more common than police officers realise.
A number of times they’ve been totally unawares until I’ve told ’em the next day that cctv of one of last night’s arrests shows the arrestee groping for a constable’s sidearm.
I believe Rolfe.
Somewhat shocking to the individual coppers is that most of the video of people going for a cop’s gun are of someone the cops are merely talking to as they pass by.
When confronted with the unimpeachable video evidence that in a non-adversarial conversation, someone was surreptitiously going for their gun, most Constables enter a state of obtuse denial.
You’re a Geelong “cats” bogan, Frank.
The old stone washed stove pipe moccassin class from the land of the Blue and white scarves.
Muscle shirts only for the two warm days a year and the packet of Winnie reds up the sleeve.
You’re lucky a man of my breeding will stoop to correspond with you.
“Th” is not promounced “F,” although like most from Geelong, if you haven’t got all your front teeth, we’ll let you off.
On the other hand, myself having lived in Melbourne and guided many tours around Melbourne in my life note I know it better than most. Especially the ones living there recently.
Lygon street was actually Jewish before da wogs moved in, interestingly enough.
But there’s no one in Melbourne anyway, it seems, so even a bogan from Geelong can be right sometime…they’re all up here.
Comet pizza. No pineapple, no anchovies.
“Putin stands for Putin’s interests.”
Fact check true…..but that also applies to politicians in the West…perhaps more so.
Even if you’re right, in my estimation he still seems to be doing a pretty decent job of standing for Russia’s interests. Again, it would be nice if an Australian leader would stand for Australia’s interests. Even if this comes in the form of a serendipitous by-product of them standing for their own interests.
Now we know covid is not serious but some diseases are.
So I am letting you know what is out there people that you should be wary of.
Japanese encephalitis.
As you know, I rushed down to Adelaide recently because my father was the first to catch it as it turns out and we nearly lost him.
Attacks the brain.
Lucky his was barely used.
4 weeks later he still isn’t good.
The woman who got it next died.
They are doing a story on it on the MSM in Adelaide tonight.
You don’t want to get that.
A bit of mozzie repellent guys.
For those in SA area, they are catching it in the riverland, around Barmera and through Berri and Renmark.
Now turning up in NSW and flood zones.
Parade means lack of social distancing. If the idea is to avoid superspreader events, the after party was historically like something from the last days of the Roman empire. No social distancing plus fluids.
Super yacht charter on the Med this winter should be a bit cheaper with a few more oligarchs yachts seized. Don’t stuff this up SloMo.
In fairness to the Little (‘Anonymous’) Green Men who suddenly appeared in the Crimea and annexed it with barely a shot being fired about the same time, Vlad Bae has been giving easily as good as he got.
Up to and including 9K37 ‘Beech’ (SA-11 ‘Grizzly’) tracked SAM launchers from his own military’s 53rd Anti-Aircraft Missile Brigade for his Donbassian proxy militias in 2017. Now, this was fine with everybody so long as it shot down Ukrainian AF Sukhois, Tupolevs and Ilyushins. Not so much when you fail to correctly identify your target first, as as a wise Cat said yesterday, “The Sped Strela Does Not Return…”
Not to mention finding a berth and getting a table.
What Ukraine has shown is how much dirty money is sloshing around London and Europe generally.
Guaranteed swift delivery, or your Soros-money back?
Yes. Which was perfectly OK until the little people got jack of it.
Like right now… 🙂
Putin is leader for life which allows his narcissism free reign. Western leaders are in a completely different position. Australian leaders do stand for Australia’s interests. They may not stand for your interests but your interests are not necessarily the nation’s interests. Our leaders do not kill opponents, do not jail opponents, are not worth billions while their country crumbles.
The attempts to equate Putin’s leadership with the leadership of Western leaders is a remarkable cynicism that reminds me of the way so many on the Left speak about the West.

Was totally unaware of the whole ‘outrage’ due to being overseas.
Wish I’d been in Oz for the opportunity to lurk near a Delifrance in the hopes of some unwashed having a crack at me. (Not that in those days I even knew places like Delifrance existed)
Interestingly, Canada – where I’d been didn’t even have the French tests on the radar, despite being the same distance from the test site (by my thumb on a desk globe)
USA, where I’d spent some of the time, is even closer & there’d not been a public peep.
Upon return to Oz, it was puzzling what the big deal was, & people seemed unable to process that despite the scale of public debate, 100deg celsius temperature of outrage at French testing was pretty much confined to Australia & Australia only.
Being suddenly met with racing air compressors, sudden failures of compression-braking discipline and a mad scramble for the truckstop exits whenever the young Struth pulled in for a meal and a fuel stop has never really left him.
Instead of taking a good, hard look at himself and his actions, he decided it was everyone else’s fault he was an unlikable person.
And he’s never really looked back since. Probably just as well…
Our leaders do not kill opponents, do not jail opponents, are not worth billions while their country crumbles.
Bill Leak.
Pauline Hanson.
Let’s talk millions.
Yeah, Australia is booming.
What…you think you get a say?
They may be Nazis, but they’re our Nazis!
Bruce O’Newk:
Maybe we could pay down our debt, too.
Or cut taxes to let the wukkas keep a bit more of their hard earned.
Or get our gold reserves up a bit.
Or buy a few subs from the US/GB.
Or build a network of mini nuclear power stations to get the aluminium smelters going again.
But it won’t happen.
BECAUSE WE ARE RUN BY FUCKWITS WHO NEVER MISS AN OPPORTUNITY TO MISS AN OPPORTUNITY.

Putin would be feeling like Brer Rabbit getting thrown into the Briar patch, except without having to even ask.
Useful dickheads in the west forcing Russians and their money to remain in Russia.
They’re building his “Potato soup curtain” for him at their own expense.
Putin must spend half of each day pinching himself over how stupid western leaders are.
Tap the brakes.
Maybe it needs to be a hashtag.
#tapthebrakes
There, that’ll do it.
I thought Clive Palmer made a statement that he had covid?
the end stage of civilisation is characterised by a exponential bloating of the bureaucracy as it devours what remains of the productive sector.
Our leaders do not kill opponents, do not jail opponents, are not worth billions while their country crumbles.
absolute garbage- how many did antifa, the sharp of of the us establishment, kill? how many have the clintons had killed?
have the jan6 people in dc received fair trial yet?
worth billions while their country crumbles– the democatic party luminaries are- they can even inside trade
Wait!
What?
Isn’t Dan Andrews the portal to introduce it to Australia.
Not the Federal Faulty Cash Restrictions Any Day Now Bill.
Now it’s coming from Canada?
…
By the way, it is ‘sneaking’, not ‘sneeking’, you barely literate buffoon.
If you start off that wrong, I stop reading. Your basic premise is so flawed that nothing you have derived from this is worth considering.
What a prosaic age we live in:
Sun Tzu’s “golden bridge” has become a freeway “off ramp”, as in “Macron is trying to provide Putin with an off ramp out of this conflict”.
Anyway, it’s good to see Micron making himself useful for a change.
That little country to the right might have something to say about that. Ever heard of the Rainbow Warrior, a boat not a qwerty activist.
The first casualty of war is truth. Etc, etc, etc.
That reality hasn’t changed since newspapers were invented 400 years ago. The difference now is that information on the internet is controlled by the anti-civilisationists who invented social media who hate the human race, so the percentalge of bullshit being published in war time is nearer 100% than 50%.
Because Putin is a corrupt, evil piece of shit, people are naturally inclined to fear the worst about why his army is attacking Europe’s biggest nuclear plant. But it’s safe to say none of those reasons are good.
Sancho Panzer would seem to believe there is no harm in a cash restrictions law.
Free country, allowed to air his opinion, etc.
For the kind person who put up the link to ‘An Officer and a Spy’ – Merci.
It is certainly one of the better retellings of the tragedy.
Lindsay Graham is a cockhead.
A child brain in an adult body.

The whole side-picking thing is the manifestation of a vindictive desire to see the western oligarchs who screwed us, somehow be made to suffer because they were embarrassed and militarily defeated by a different set of oligarchs.
And the Ukrainians (no matter which capital or ethnic group they cleave to) are okay sacrifices to achieve this.
Like it or not, the West is all we Cats will ever have (certain Glowies’ declared intentions to move to Japan notwithstanding). Shitting on it like the Left does and wiehing its demise because the Left has made it shitty to be in over the last 20 years, won’t improve things.
We got a bit of a look during the Crown Royal Commission. Arrive with a few hundred thousand for a weekend of gambling, whoring and drinking. All good fun till your man loses his seat at the CCP table and a dozen of your employees are detained across China.
Dakota Meyer says he took DMT.
Why isn’t DMT offered to all PTSD patients?
It would be worth giving every PM for the last 50 years if they left the country in better condition than they found it. Instead Australia, you’re standing in it.
Pauline Hanson. That’s all you’ve got and it doesn’t compare to polonium poisoning in foreign countries and killing journalists in the home country. Economically Australia is much better than Russia and most other countries. Land values at record levels, unemployment at very low levels(not that I believe those figures but still low given present conditions), making a motza selling resources and food, an enviable standard of living.
Please don’t give me one of those predictions how everything will eventually go to hell. For many years every day on this forum someone has been proclaiming the sky is falling. So many pessimists here it is wonder the membership isn’t disappearing through suicide.
You want equivalence and tell me which journalists have been poisoned. How does the GDP of Russia compare to Australia? Putin’s wealth remains a mystery as does how he got it but most analysts put in the billions. The man is corrupt beyond measure. Care to explain how Putin’s son in law became so wealthy after marriage? Just a coincidence I suppose.
Re the question (waaaay upthread) about Clive buying Adolf Hitler’s car:
Clive stated on Twitter that he has not purchased the car.
An absolute statement of fact, by the principal in the (non) deal.
The reply thread is chockers with lefties explaining to him – like he’s a special needs child – that he has in fact bought Hitler’s car.
Not a skerrick of supporting evidence, just dickhead lefties saying so.
These people vote.

Scary stuff. Thanks for posting, Struth.
Thanks for the cricket ‘antidotes’ KD.
The question is, did Rod Marsh die of a heart attack?
Or did Bill Lawry declare on him early again?
Put it back. I only put it up for Cassie. But seriously it is very good. I particularly liked the Renoir style of picnic at the beginning to get the feely of the time that most people can identify with.
In this case, the corporate media does have some cover re the nuclear plant “being on fire”.
It was Zelensky who was saying it.
Seriously, he is Karzai 2.0
Nothing childish about Lindsay Graham, bern. He’s a self-enriching cockroach as corrupt as anything in the Washington swamp, including the Biden and Pelosi families.
To Mr Frank Thring.
I find you may have a problem with the ability to work out who said what.
You have had this problem for some time.
We have told you that a notafan approach of twisting what is actually said, only serves to lower your standing amongst those that wish to give you a lift up, to help you unwrap the blue and white scarf of scoffing froo missing teef.
So in wording you may understand, pullya fuckin’ head in.
Tis no good correcting other’s spelling when you should be working on your own reading and comprehension skills.
Choo choo man where are ya?
Thats my uptick there, Tom.
We’ll probably find out if Chappelli is on the ALPBC radio next summer.
GrayRanga. Yep, the whole belle epoch feel of the movie was completely absorbing. The wardrobe folks had fun.
I promise that I only peeked at the dirty bits, and it is now back on the shelf.
Strange. The stadium is Rawalpindi is virtually empty for the first session of the first Pakistan Test in more than 20 years.
Like it or not, the West is all we Cats will ever have (certain Glowies’ declared intentions to move to Japan notwithstanding). Shitting on it like the Left does and wiehing its demise because the Left has made it shitty to be in over the last 20 years, won’t improve things.
I’d say the US is pretty much a lost cause now- it’s been so white anted. Hope I’m wrong but that’s how I see it. I’d say Australia is pretty much all we have and we should make it strong and independent.
I certainly wouldn’t expend the US to defend us- as I said a few days ago, they won’t even defend Texas.
Well, RB, we don’t know where choo choo man is, because he can post 24/7 whether at work or not.
It’s a union job and he only knows he’s at work if he’s wearing a safety shirt.
I certainly wouldn’t expect the US to defend us- as I said a few days ago, they won’t even defend Texas.
St Ruth still being a spiteful school girl

The Clintons are corrupt beyond measure. Care to explain how the Bill, Hillary and Chelsea have all become so wealthy? The truth is that the Clinton family ooze sleaze and corruption. It is a fact that the “Clinton Foundation”, a “foundation” that our government disgracefully gave money to, helped pay for that ghastly Princess Chelsea’s wedding. Or was that just a “coincidence”?
The Fox commentators think the emptiness of the Rawalpindi stadium has something to do with Friday prayers — from the same religion that gave us the terrorism that made Pakistan unsafe for international cricket for two decades.
You want equivalence
You want equivalence?
Don’t compare an eastern bloc country to a western country. Get some perspective and compare Australia to Australia historically and Russia to Russia historically.
That’s a handful of examples that just came to mind, there’d be a few more if you dig just a little.
And don’t give me this JC level ‘the economy is fantastic because Josh has got the numbers’ bullshit. FMD. The economy can boom but locally things can be dire.
After the events of 2020/2021- I can’t think of anything admirable about the USA
The Clinton Foundation is their family ATM
Didn’t “we” make a deposit there?
American corporations that hate America and Americans- if that’s the modern ‘west’ count me out
Didn’t “we” make a deposit there?
dolly downer iirc
Miltonf are you a fully fledged member of the groovy gang now?
You’re a moron Milton.
We are in a far worse situation than the USA.
Always have been.
They are still armed and their government power is decentralised. Throughout the pandemic and especially now, they have been so much more free than us, as to be laughable.
The feds are throwing out mandate orders and the states ore telling him to F off.
Pick that bottom lip up and stop with the 20 past eight stuff.
We’re just getting to the start of the fight.
See the USA is not the Putin government.
When this shit happens people say “Australia is doing this” Germany is doing that, and the USA are doing something else.
The governments of all western nations no longer have the people’s trust but the people’s hatred.
It’s not over by a long shot.
Of course if we keep complying it will be………
fuck of St Ruth
Struth, I think choo choo man is teaching weaponry school to the gang.
I asked him about ammo for my nerf gun but he hasn’t replied so far.
All US politicians have the wonderful advantage of engaging in insider trading. Apart from that look at how much they charge for speaking engagements and photo ops. Corrupt beyond measure? Show me your metric. Are the Clintons worth billions? Are you making stuff up? Do you try to find out something by doing research or do you just choose the worst case possible for your enemies?
Emigrate to Russia. Let us know how that works out for you.
A pitiful excuse to run away. It is widely accepted that Putin leadership will only be challenged when he allows it and then it will be a puppet govt until he can shift himself, family and wealth out of harm’s way.
Julia Gillard.
Got her an international job post-politics too.
The USA isn’t it’s government.
It’s an idea, as they say.
And so it is.
A fucking great idea that free people create wealth and governments are the servants of the people and the people must remain armed to ensure it stays that way.
It might get worse before it gets better, but it will get better.
The people still have the power there, ultimately, and a government is still fearful of it’s people.
The left used jan 6 politically of course, but their overreaction was also because they fear the people.
And so do our governments.
As does the Chinese.
All this is over when people stop doing what they are told, taking fucking boosters and giving in etc.
Emigrate to Russia. Let us know how that works out for you.
yes but you haven’t addressed my contention that in the west we have an establishment that hates the countries they control
Miltonf, I have appreciated your posts for a while but you have gone over to the loony gang a bit.
Maybe you should think for yourself as you used to instead of climbing on with the pile on gang, it doesn’t suit your intelligence.
Putin is worse – ergo our system is perfect.
Uh-huh.
