You haven’t been watching the recent engagements in the Red Sea have you? The Houthis have been trying. And trying.…
Thanks, Calli. I’m still deciding whether to post his somewhat conspiratorial article on Australia, which isn’t as good, but interesting all the same.
I aspire to being controversial. It beats being beleaguered.
controversial means they hate you but can’t say so straight out. Garbage people.
Fuck you!!!
Cohenite, thanks for watching Blot so we didn’t have to. The Vic Libs will be lucky to retain 12 of their 21 seats in the next state parliament because they’re running on a Labor platform. They’ll be annihilated.
Oh.
Maybe you’re right.
A lot of people labour under the misapprehension they are important or that people gives a shit what they think.
Why would you even bother to hand out HVTs for the Lieborals ? I saw them doing it for Trumble in 2016- talk about drinking the kool-aide.
Reminds me of Kathy Shaidle’s take on those shrines on the side of the road built by loved ones to commemorate road fatalities.
Loved Spain when I was there in 1996. Drove into Figueres on the Mediterranean coast near the border with France after driving from Turin in the morning (we didn’t stop in France except when briefly accosted by a Mr Bean look alike who for some unknown reason had blown his stack while we were stopped at a toll booth). Highlights included:
The Dali (Figueres), Picasso and Miro museums (Barcelona)
Walking around Barcelona checking out the Gaudi works
Catching the funicular to Montjuic for the fantastic views over the Mediterranean
Climbing one of the Sagrada Familia’s spires
Walking around Las Ramblas in the evening soaking up the atmosphere
The nightlife in Madrid – and being denounced as an “Americano” after refusing to buy some drugs from some street hustlers in an alleyway
The Prado (an all day effort and still felt like we’d barely scratched the surface)
Driving from Madrid via Zaragoza across the Pyrenees into France, crossed the border around dusk headed for Toulouse
Unfortunately I wasn’t a football fan back then so didn’t even see the Nou Camp or the Bernabau …
Get another tatt if you must.
Unless it’s the Brocky shrine of course.
Grate – the updates are still playing havoc, wiped my details and the comments towards the end of the previous page can’t be seen.
The travelogue above is based on what seem now to be very distant memories. Thankfully there are many photos. Would help if I could find the bloody things.
Zipster:
So why aren’t the US buying land in China near their bases?
A: Because they won’t let us.
Why don’t we tell China that they aren’t allowed to do the same?
A: crickets…
I would live in Asturias even though it rains a lot. Property is so cheap. Travelled by train across the top.
I was in Figueres in February.
Only had a week in Spain, so only Figueres and Girona.
I’m planning to visit Spain in January February next year.
Haven’t been to Cordoba.
Severe brain damage?

Alhambra Palace is well worth visiting in Granada.
We made some pretty dangerous stuff in High School Metal Shop. However this guys is next level, in terms of what he made, and the quality!
(Remember what it was like in a free country?)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-yXIan7-t_c&t=698s
Granada, Toledo & Cordoba are my favourites in Spain. Granada – not simply for the magnificent Alhambra, but because it is such a liveable city. It’s Basilica of Dan Juan de Dios also is staggering for the amount of gold decoration. Toledo is a quintessential ramparted city with the most marvellous exhibit, when I was there, of reconstructed & actual Ancient weaponry. And Cordoba? Well La Mezquita – the stunning cathedral that incorporates Islamic architecture, is unique. It was also a Roman town, with its magnificent stone bridge guarding the town.
So many layers of history in Spain. From remains of Palaeolithic & Neolithic settlements and dolmen, to Roman & Medieval towns & cities.
Getting harder every day.
Has Captain Co-Morbidity karked it yet from the coof? or is he still milking it for sympathy?
Potential epitaphs:
If he hadn’t spent his life locked in his basement eating donuts…..
Yeah. I’ve been around a bit and I’m usually more careful. Split the important stuff, take the minimum with you, the rest in the safe etc etc. All it takes though is to forget once due to any reason and you’re cursing about it for weeks.
Cancelled all the cards afterwards then had to wait for replacements, the only card I got before I left Barcelona several days later was Amex. I had to pick the other cards up in London.
Irony was that my wallet was found and handed in 3 days later sans cash but all cards intact but now useless. A ‘Chica Polaca’ found it not far from the station and did the right thing. I thanked her profusely but she wouldn’t take any of the money I borrowed off a fellow conference attendee.
BTW there is now an option (that wasn’t available back then ) to suspend the card rather than cancel in case it turns up later.
Fact check – cherry picked subjective bullshit.
Senator Hanson – Days Present 3, Absent 1, Absent With Leave 3.
Getting harder every day.
I actually caught up with my old metal shop teacher at a BBQ recently.
He was justifiably proud of the number of his students, from a modest country high school, that went on to be machinists, fabricators, electricians and engineers.
The VIC Education Department brought a lot of steel for trailers and weapons!
We both agreed that Australia is rooted.
If only they had a vaccine for this…oh wait!
If only they’d forced it on everyone…oh wait!
If only they’d lockdown the entire State for months…oh wait!
I guess those wing nuts on the Cat were right, after all.
I have had a better day, no naps and have eaten a little more. Hopefully this mode lasts until the weekend is through.
I watched QT today… what a terrible performance by the opposition, what few there are left of them. A string of questions about the CFMEU, and nothing else. Obviously Dutton has learnt nothing from crushing defeat.
DILLIGAF?
No Monty, that was it. If you’re on the improve, it’s done.
That was what you supported fucking up the country and our kids over.
Hope you’re proud of yourself.
That’s great Monty.
The source of the Nile is still within reach.
The Libs’ new mantra seemed to be, “why are you making a bad situation worse”, which is a massive own goal of a thing to say since they are the ones who made the situation bad in the first place, and it allows Albo to go off on their terrible record on every question.
The new Speaker had to admonish the Libs to confine their interjections until after the government member started talking.
Hope so!
I may get lucky, but COVID luck runs out for dozens of Victorians every day.
Average age 85.
Actually it is the vast mosque which incorporates the cathedral
Luck runs out for roughly 120 Victorians per day, everyday, 365 days a year, regardless of Covid.
The only luck involved is that you’re not an 83 year old diabetic with dementia.
I’m guessing I’ve spent around five six months so far in Spain, still got a few places on my yet to do list, and a few on my revisit list.
No results found for “UAP election fraud Hinkler and Longman”.
Safari.
I like the Big Tech Censorship conspiracy theory best.
South Australia, the renewables state is currently operating on 7% renewables, 90% gas and 2% liquid fuels (probably kero). That is our future under the mad green mandates. It is all a chimera.
Hanson objects to smoking ceremonies and welcome to country: evil fascist racist. Greens and their organs in the woke media such as the ghastly Jenna Price sneer, in the most insulting and dismissive terms, at MPs taking oaths on the scriptures and reciting the Lord’s Prayer: ultra politically correct.
Harlequin earlier.
Good to know.
I was convinced we were going to get robbed in Naples a couple of years ago.
Going to the railway station in a cab.
Total gridlock so the cabbie said we may as well leg it the last 250 metres. Dragged our cases along the narrow footpaths, hand firmly on my wallet.
I had read horror stories online about pick-pockets in the station and I remembered the dingy crowded station from twenty years before.
Prepare to be mugged!
Turned the corner around some construction hoardings and there it was … a brand new railway concourse about four acres in size lit up like a Christmas tree.
A pickpocket’s nightmare.
Some of the doomsayer online reviews were only weeks old. Obviously “stories my grandpa told me”.
FTB,
If you’re ‘round, I’m 75 pages in on the Kennedy book on Fauci and I’m not giving him the benefit of the doubt. It should be grand jury time with firing squad to follow.

Love Figueres – Salvador Dali’s Museum amazing
use Paradores – 1st discovered them in 1974 – (1970 Spain trip was 2 man pup tent driving Harry Potter Ford Anglia – as Airline Staff -Standby British Air Ferries Bristol 2 engine Freighter Lydd to Le Touquet return – as idiot boss would only allow 2 weeks holiday time accrued in UK, one week at a time – Parked Zurich Airport Sunday Night – slept in Airport – Terrorist alarm – thankfully we were through checks – Monday to LHR – back Friday night to pick up Anglia and complete European Tour)
1974 trip with 18 Month old son basically around world, carried OZ Dollars – useless as hard to cash in Spain, so 1 night Paradores next night, 1 star Hotel usually outside Service Station on hill where every trick noise echoed in.
Thereafter have done a number of trips to Spain using Eurolease (booked in France) and staying Paradores to Paradores – great as Seniors
https://www.parador.es/en
Have yet to stay in Parador de Granada
Spend the night in the Alhambra complex, among gardens and fountains that evoke a past in which the Arab and the Christian intermingled.
as you need to book a year ahead but on next to do list – which is a month 2 nights per Paradores – each Paradores has a 3 course local food menu reasonably price
https://www.parador.es/en/paradores/parador-de-granada
Unique and sustainable accommodation
There are currently almost a hundred Paradores located throughout most of Spain. They usually have an average of 65 rooms, thus ensuring a personal, quality customer service. More than half of them are located in historical monuments and buildings; and many others offer accommodation in national parks and outstanding natural spaces. In addition, their restaurants serve a harmonious blend of traditional dishes alongside the latest culinary trends. All of this shows the Paradores’ commitment to sustainability, which translates into a management model where the protection of historical and cultural heritage, care for the environment and the promotion of the local economy always prevail.
We on one trip had picked up Eurolease in Biarritz, started out in Parador de Hondarribia then paradores across north spain then inland to Leon – https://www.parador.es/en/paradores/parador-de-leon across to Parador de Santiago de Compostela, Parador de Pontevedra, Parador de Baiona down to Portugal back through Madrid to Coast backup to France

You’ve got Kung Flu. Confirmed.
From here, one of two things are going to happen.
Most likely you will be back to normal (whatever the fuck that is) in a couple of days.
Or there is a tiny, miniscule possibility your condition might worsen and you might die.
I doubt it, but let’s deal with that contingency.
Stop sooking about being too young for anti-virals. Get a bit resourceful. Find a relative who is over 65, get them to declare a positive RAT and get someone to grab some anti-virals from the chemist.
Stop being a fucking rule-following socialist. Take a bit of control.
You might even consider horse paste.
Can’t do any harm.
Might save you life, who knows?
Last Night of the Proms on ABC 22. Rather rotund Aussie tenor Stuart Skelton in cricket whites and floppy green leads the singing of Rule Brittania. Lots of bonhomie.
Oops 1973 trip with 18 Month old son basically around world and where every truck noise echoed in.
In Monty’s book, if it’s not fucking up someone else’s life, it’s not an appropriate treatment/mitigation.
Get ready for a new strategy to get you masked up, since very few people are wearing them. The medico-industrio fascists are seeking to change the messaging. According to some ex-UN doctor on Sky today, masks are not to keep you safe – they’re to keep the people around you safe! So, it’s about embarrassing you until you concede that you have responsibilities beyond your own needs.

ftb,
It’s a thumbs down on Fauci.
100%.
Atlas was being a pussy saying he was incompetent.
Fauci is evil.
Narcissistic Rage on the Left
Simple answer.
I’m. Not. Sick.
I may get lucky, but COVID luck runs out for dozens of Victorians every day.
Such a fucking drama queen.
If it barely touched a fat fuck like you, any Victorian that croaks from Covid was weeks away from death anyway.
Two years of destruction and forced experimental medication for a virus that can barely get munty of his food?!
…so they can wear a mask all they like.
Look if jellyback Parrot Head has said no and we’re past mid winter, the chance of this happening seems remote.
Fauci is evil.
Mengele level evil, just a little short of the authority necessary to let his evil take full flight.
we’re past mid winter, the chance of this happening seems remote
I’m not so sure, there has been a inexplicable maskening of vicdanistan over the last couple of weeks. Stupid government combined with stupid people, anything is possible.
we’re past mid winter, the chance of this happening seems remote
But, Dot, it’s got nothing to do with our “great” leader and bringing back any health directive – because most people would be against any retrograde move now.
Nor is it about the time of year – winter or summer, is not the concern. In these people’s minds, it’s an “embarrassment thang”. “We will look down on you because until you put it on, you’re a bad person!” (And done with a harpy’s shriek). The “how dare you!” contingent of the ABC with Norman Swan in the lead.
If that’s the case, then masks work only when exhaling, but not when inhaling. Therefore, the masks must consist of little one way valves. Who knew?
The solution then is simple. Rather than mandate everyone wear masks, just have the bed-wetters wear two masks – one facing in, one facing out! Normal people can just get on with their lives.
I’ve tweaked the caching a little. Let’s see how that works over the next 24 hours.
Monty if a frail wheelchair bound 92 year old can survive covid you can.
You aren’t even sick enough to need more than a couple of panadol.
You are correct rick, masks everywhere near me including on young children.
And now in addition to hoarding tissues (mum witnessed a lady buy 76 boxes at aldi which didn’t have a two box limit) now there is high demand for eggs, so local Coles has a two cartoon limit.
I bought one cartoon.
I am embarrassed to be part of a species that loves being swindled.
Next life: Ferengi, please.
I actually do see where the ‘Covid isn’t real’ folks are coming from. I think they’re wrong, but I get it. Imagine your current self telling your 2019 self about the terrible swathe Covid is cutting through the community – snuffing out the lives of those pushing 90 and the morbidly obese with cardiovascular and respiratory problems. And diabetes. It’s not as though such people are at a heightened risk of dying as compared with your average person. It’s so unusual.
Masks are highly predictive personality identifiers when worn in non-medical settings. Use the knowledge to your advantage.
I’ve seen that hotel in the Alhambra complex old Ozzie, but as I’ve visited the place twice no great desire to return unless I take a family member with me.
Last time we rocked up early without a booking and were the last ones let in for the day, week day in January, I wouldn’t do that again.
I’ll keep Paradores in mind if im travelling with someone else, I’ve always used Airbnb in Spain, lots of interesting apartments in different locations and usuall very reasonable prices.
I think we stayed on Elvira? St the first time in Granada (had the original gate to the city?) and a place in a back street near the cathedral the second.
The LOLs.
My own snapshot of mask wearers in Perth city gives a small amount of confidence that common sense is returning. About a week ago, I counted people passing me while I was waiting for my darling wife. About one in three were wearing a mask. Today I repeated the exercise, and it was about one in five.
Madrid Cordoba Rondo Cadiz huevla? then bus into Portugal is looking good.
There are a couple of medieval walled cities starting with e in southern Portugal I want to visit and I wouldn’t mind visiting North Western Portugal and then a couple of the towns on the coast above Santiago de Compostela.
Then maybe the train to San Seb and into France.
Just have to be sure all is calm at home first.
I don’t really pay attention to masks unless someone is wearing them outside. Then I just think how sad it would be to be that uninformed.
Bye bye Trump.
No one is voting for a death penalty for drug dealers in 2024.
“China doesn’t have drug problems”
They have a communism problem.
Executing drug dealers is a step away from shooting pub owners and home brewers.
Please. Less government power. Less killing.
Bring on de Santis and repeal Clinton’s drug kingpin law too.
Think about it.
Along with the drug Czar and President, who is going to make policies here?
That’s right, a Health Czar.
That will definitely work out well and be science based. Maybe even Scoience! based.
Health freedom, but if you take the politically incorrect drug, we will shoot you if you make money on the side selling it, to save your life, bro.
That sounds similar to “reasoning” made over the last two and a half years.

Senate president wants to ditch the Lord’s Prayer, says article in the Paywallian.
And yet, from the instigator of the Acknowledgement of Country farce:
Dingo brushes off accusations that the welcome to country has become an empty gesture or, worse, a form of tokenism. For him the ancient ceremony has the same religious purpose and spiritual weight as attending church. “You can’t kill spirituality. You can’t take somebody’s soul. You can’t kill the presence, the inner sanctums of spirituality. You can’t do that.”

Hypocrisy perhaps?
David Llewelyn article at News website: Australia is Screwed!
A lot of blather about interest rates and inflation, while not wanting to sheet home blame for kneecapping the economy with climate changey crap like wind and solar while building no new affordable and reliable power.
Add the over-reaction to da virus and the excruciating expenditure (cheered on by state Labor premiers) and you have a Reserve Bank with a tendency to raise rates.
Activists will continue to try and shut down our remaining major earners called Mining and Agriculture, so we would then be “totally screwed” for sure.
James Lovelock has gone to Gaia.

Thanks Tom,
I usually find Warren a bit lame – but he’s on the money this time.
Mater at 7:05 am, it’s not a religion but it’s a religion.
The fact that they perform in parliament the welcome to country rite straight after the prayer indicates absolutely that it is a religion.
The welcome to country ritual is a handy stand-in for worship of environmentalism and Gaia. It is paganism, pure and simple. The mono-theistic religions tolerating it is akin to promoting it and therefore against their own beliefs.
interesting — but it seems likely to me that the building in question re-worked some facades which explains much of the ‘mystery’ he’s making up.
The only real ‘unsolved’ part is the original stereoscopic photo, but the photo has been retouched or the M has fallen off.
Better image here
ABC Classic music channel is going so woke!
Latest project is to sponsor aboriginal choir in dead language.
The worship of the creation rather than the Creator. The Christians in parliament should be especially worried – no point in asking for their work to be blessed and then baring their backsides to the Almighty as they bend down to sniff the magical smoke.
Unfortunately James Lovelock created a religion – the worship of Gaia. There is no other way to explain the religious fervour of so many Climate Change activists. And like other worshippers, some are more devout than others. But all seemingly elevate what they see as the health of the planet above all else – certainly above the well-being of the human species.
The planet is an immensely complex and dynamic entity, & that complexity needs to be monitored, as we do. But to believe that our species can control or substantially influence those processes had always seemed ludicrous to me.
A blow against the current thing.
Duncanm, the other point he’s making though is the manufactured history of architect and date built. It’s curious that even relatively recent structures such as this have a “story” woven around them that doesn’t stand up to scrutiny.
I liked the idea though that it might incorporate some much older elements, much the same as many buildings in Rome for instance.

It also has the nasty undertone to all non-Aboriginal Australians that this is not your country. I don’t need to be welcomed into the land that I was born in, my parents were born in and my grandparents and great-grandparents were born and died in.

Mmm…the prog-left would like to do just that to the Manly 7.
They can’t even attend the match because of security concerns, which suggests credible death threats have been received.

Can’t we all just get along, as most Australians thought we were making genuine progress at?

There is clearly going to be a substitution of welcome to country for the Lord’s prayer.
I’m not sure I care that much.
We should be getting people back to church.
I’d be more supportive of the welcome to country prayer if it mentioned the goals of raising education standards & reducing domestic violence in all indigenous communities.
I was at boarding school with Ernie Dingo in the early 1970’s. Pulling the legs of gullible white fellas was something he and his claque thought fine sport. They all considered an education fully funded by the whitefella taxpayer their rightful due – boarding fees, airfares home for holidays, textbooks, school excursions, pocket money, the lot.
Well even the Breakfast TV morons commented on it:
Australian athlete WITH Covid (I believe a squash player) is being permitted to play when positive to Covid.
It is breathtaking hypocrisy after the damage done to Djokovic in refusing to allow him to compete I. The Australian Open when he was NEGATIVE but unvaccinated.
Ally Langton Ch9 said “it is a strange world”.
Well HELLO- she was one the most vociferous against positions opposed to vaccination.
But no – they will just say “we are moving on” – ignoring the terrible damage their stupidity did to families & friendships in supporting mandate& the rest of the totalitarian measure against the unvaccinated.

Giving all indigenous kids the option of going to boarding school on the tax payer tab would save tax payers a fuck ton of money in the long term.
But considering the industry around ensuring indigenous Australians are a permanent underclass that will never happen.
Also, they’d scream stolen generation.
It’s all about money.

I don’t know what applies in other states but they’ve had that option in QLD for decades.
I love Pauline;
“I’m furious about this, that chamber is a people’s chamber, the Australian people have never been asked to accept or vote on the Aboriginal flag.
It was forced upon us, and given pride and precedent over our Australian flag. I’m furious. This is divisive.”

The NRL is going to do immense damage to itself over this issue.
These players and their fans will walk away from the game rather than betray their beliefs.

Yes.
It is the colonial source of the religion which pisses off the SJW.
If they were haka-hoppin’ Kiwis they would be tip-toeing around “culture and tradition”.
Oh, yay! Another Tower of Babel.
How original.
What’s really shocking is that approval was given in full knowledge of the harm it would cause.

That story about the train conductor being dismissed for suggesting there might be such a thing as Black Privilege – here is the text of the Tweet:
Guy was not even suggesting it existed in the UK. Just that, if there is supposed to be White Privilege in ‘white’ countries, do ‘black’ countries have Black Privilege.
Just think what West Midlands Rail must think that such a question is grounds for dismissal. What they must think so that White Privilege is accepted as a scourge beyond question, but the very thought of Black Privilege is nonsensical to the point of malice.
Iirc private indigenous scholarship scheme for non government schools biggest problem is that children from remote communities can’t cope with the dislocation.
Urban children do much better so the scholarships programme may have ended up the way a lot of things do.

I also suppose we’ll never hear the end of rich white people whinging about genuinely disadvantaged aboriginal people getting a hand up.
Its’ revealing that the NRL would employ a cultural Marxist to advise them on their Pacific island players. No wonder they have no insight into their religious beliefs.
It’s evident from the boilerplate that the coaches are now uttering publicly that they have all been to “workshops” on the gay issue, probably as a condition of their continued employment in the NRL.

Trump thinks we can vanquish all comers if we just put our minds to it, and he’s right… Courage never demands perfection…
Apart from agreeing with the article on Trump , this statement caught my eye for another reason. I thought of the soldier at war (or, maybe, my idea of what that person would be like in such circumstances) and I thought of everything that’s being thrown at Ben Roberts-Smith in the media and now in the courts over the past four years. And I repeat it because of that: courage never demands perfection.

China Insights
In May and June of this year, Chinese warships took turns appearing outside the first island chain, including the Liaoning aircraft carrier in eastern Taiwan and Okinawa waters.
The specific method of the CCP’s Anti-Access and Area Denial is to attack the U.S. aircraft carrier formation so that it does not dare to approach China’s surrounding waters easily.
In June and July, the U.S. military launched counterattacks in the East China Sea and the South China Sea in response to the CCP’s weaknesses. It made clear that the Indo-Pacific strategy has become a priority for the U.S. in recent years.
That can happen, but just as many relish the opportunity to get away from those communities.
Still racist.
Why are white kids, who are potentially in as much need, overlooked because of skin colour?
Need, not breed.
These players and their fans will walk away from the game rather than betray their beliefs.
Would now be a good time for a Kerry Packeresque swoop to start a “we dont give a shit, just play the game” league?
It sure is racist.
But taxpayer money is getting pissed away on a million things.
Breaking the cycle in indigenous communities is just as good a place as any.

Sardonic Senior Pearls of Wisdom
I’ve learned that pleasing everyone is impossible, but pissing everyone off is a piece of cake.
If you find yourself feeling useless, remember it took 20 years, trillions of dollars, and four presidents to replace the Taliban with the Taliban.
I’m responsible for what I say, not what you understand.
Common sense is like deodorant. The people who need it the most never use it.
My tolerance for idiots is extremely low these days. I used to have some immunity built up, but obviously, there’s a new strain out there.
It’s not my age that bothers me; it’s the side effects.
I’m not saying I’m old and worn out, but I make sure I’m nowhere near the curb on trash day.
As I watch this generation try and rewrite our history, I’m sure of one thing: It will be misspelt and have no punctuation.
As I’ve gotten older, people think I’ve become lazy. The truth is I’m just being more energy-efficient.
Turns out that being a “senior” is mostly just googling how to do stuff.
I want to be 18 again and ruin my life differently. I have new ideas.
God promised men that good and obedient wives would be found in all corners of the world. Then he made the earth round. . . and laughed and laughed and laughed.
I’m on two diets. I wasn’t getting enough food on one.
I put my scale in the bathroom corner and that’s where the little liar will stay until it apologises.
My mind is like an internet browser. At least 19 open tabs, 3 of them are frozen, and I have no clue where the music is coming from.
Hard to believe I once had a phone attached to a wall, and when it rang, I picked it up without knowing who was calling.
Apparently RSVPing to a wedding invitation “Maybe next time” isn’t the correct response.
She says I keep pushing her buttons. If that were true, I would have found mute by now.
Sometimes the Universe puts you in the same situation again to see if you’re still a dumbass.
There is no such thing as a grouchy old person. The truth is that once you get old, you stop being polite and start being honest.
Gross misconduct, no less.
I suspect the rail union would’ve gone to the mattresses if he’d been merely
hopped up on goofballs and got a couple of passengers killed.
The rail conductor was dismissed for gross misconduct after asking whether indigenous populations enjoy ‘black privilege’ in African countries during a diversity training course.

Years ago I was press-ganged into a training session on diversidy, inclusion yada, yada, and set a little trap.
I related the example Mrs P encountered in her employment of a chap refusing to shake her hand because he doesn’t shake hands with women.

I then revealed that he was a Moosley and it was his cultural and religious beliefs which drove his stance, and the room suddenly went a bit quiet.
I asked which set of values should prevail. Australian commitment to gender equality or his religious and cultural beliefs.
“It’s complicated. Let’s park that one for now.”
It never got un-parked. Of course, had I said he was a fundamentalist Christian relying on obscure Bible verses, I doubt it would have been a conundrum.
The upside was that I was not asked to participate for the remainder of the course.

And it’s odds on that a lot of aboriginal kids will be on top of the stack in terms of need, but let’s get rid of race being the determining factor in determining eligibility.
I’ve seen these private (and public) scholarships go to some very privileged kids, based purely on some Aboriginality. It’s a disgrace.
They don’t, of course.

Who made the mistake? – Australian mountain climber Matthew Eakin’s body found on K2
The Himalayan Times newspaper reported Mr Eakin and Mr Cartier went missing last week during their descent from Camp 2 to Camp 1.
Rescuers found the two men’s bodies on Tuesday.
Mr Dube-Fahmy had been keeping a log of the group’s K2 trek on Facebook and had last posted on July 21, stating that the trio was “pretty tired” after 16 hours of climbing.
“Today we touched lower C4 (76,000m). We are heading back to Base Camp tomorrow,” he wrote.
“It’s starting to get cold. We are pretty tired after these two big days.”
Is that the same type of rugby that inflicted this on the world?
Good support for Pauline and the Manley players from what I can see. I see the Speaker wants to do away with the Lords prayer.
Credlin has a great article in the Oz today. One of her best.
‘Tis Vogue so I guess by bravery they don’t mean she’s been doing a Dorothie Feilding, but rather been seen wearing last season’s Manolo Blahniks.
I think you’re just being transphobic.
WTF? It’s nothing of the sort.
Facts no longer matter. This rejected comment I made at the Oz was in reaction to an article by AFP about recent research by Andersen and another, that suggests the virus not from a lab. Perfect example of how the game is being played.
“Anybody who has followed the Wuhan story will recognise the name Kristian Andersen mentioned in this article. He was one of the first to email Fauci (1 February 2020) expressing concern that the virus was “engineered”. He subsequently backtracked and months later received a US$1.8m grant from NIH. He also deleted all his 5,000 Tweets and closed his account.
See also Chapter 14 of Sharri Markson book What really happened in Wuhan. It would be interesting to see her comments about this latest research.
This article is more of a press release for the research mentioned which is why none of his early involvement in the saga is mentioned”.
Trump in 2024 is the only answer against the political elites
By Kelly Sadler – The Washington Times – Tuesday, July 26, 2022
As Washington and New York City political pundits and politicians salivate over the Jan. 6 show trial and speculate whether former President Donald Trump still has a hold on the Republican Party, they’re missing one key point: The majority of the American electorate hates them.
So much so, that many are willing to turn to Mr. Trump in 2024 no matter what because he’s a proven streetfighter who is unafraid to take on bureaucratic thugs and return the government to the people.
According to a recent University of Chicago poll, 56% believe the government is corrupt and rigged. In a Quinnipiac poll, less than a third of the country approves of the jobs President Biden and Congress are doing. And Americans’ confidence in the news media has fallen to an all-time low, Gallup reported this month.
The American public simply doesn’t believe what they’re being fed from the political elites, and why would they?
On Sunday, former Vice President Al Gore compared so-called “climate-deniers” to police inactivity during the Uvalde, Texas, shooting.
This man, whose net worth is estimated to be $300 million, once said the Arctic would be ice-free in the summer of 2013 and New York City and Miami would be underwater by 2015.
Just 1% of Americans named “climate change” as the most important problem facing the U.S. in a recent New York Times poll. The vast majority agree economic issues are their top concern.
Yet, according to the Biden administration, the economy is strong.
Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen, who last year explained inflation was merely “transitory,” is now working to change the definition of the word “recession” — which most economists acknowledge is two-quarters of GDP contraction.
Last week, it was reported by Axios that, if reelected, Mr. Trump plans on gutting the federal bureaucracy. The elites in Washington shuddered.
“How could unelected bureaucrats possibly lose their jobs?” they practically muttered out loud, fearing for their own futures.
Yet, personnel is policy.
A promise to reform a bloated administrative state that acts like unaccountable autocrats (look no further than Dr. Anthony Fauci) would be welcomed by many Americans who want the government to work for them, not the other way around.
Is that Granma Yellen in the Lisa Benson cartoon? Surely that just perpetuates stereotypes around elderly women drivers.
