Putative immigrants will soon work out that they are being welcomed solely as a source of taxes, and stay home. Even the poor ones are not stpid.
They got one lot of legal fees for the youngest. Haven’t heard of any compensation. The parents and the oldest daughter exhausted all their legal avenues and lost.

Sorry wifey, but they will prefer to be relatively poor here rather than genuinely poor in Sri Lanka.

The truly poor from refugee camps are a different kettle of fish from the applicants via Dept of Immigration, vetted by people recently immigrants themselves.
Nuclear is too expensive and scary (except in France and other countries that have nuclear already) and one day uranium will run out, or perhaps not, depending on technology advances.
Complete and utter bullshit. New generation nukes use much less fissionable material greatly increasing known stock life which even with old nuke tech was measured in millennia. Same with new gen coal.
I’m interested to know what the wait time is currently for family reunion status for immigrants – it was getting quite long pre-covid, my guess is that things have settled down with inability to travel for a couple of years, and elderly parents getting older by the day. Any one know?
Iirc she claimed sixty years if nuclear was increased by a factor of 10 ie to provide 100 percent of energy needs using current technology.
OK – I’m going to blunder into a “contested space”, here, Cats.
If you can’t define what a “woman” is, then you are clearly too stupid to be on the public payroll.

Thought you were referencing that line from Death at a Funeral that got delivered whenever anyone took the not paracetamol tablets. Second only in the memorability stakes to “I have uncle Monty’s shit in my mouth”.

Interesting question wifey. Family reunion has always been problematic to me. For every approved entrant, how many entrants do we actually get? We have approved refugees from places that they “were in danger” known to have gone back to their places of origin in apparent safety. They also have ‘rights’ to bring their extended families here. Hence the massive congestion of enclaves in areas such as where I live.
Quite frankly, I have always believed that if you want to reunite with your family, you are welcome to go home. This is a crock emanating from UN treaties.
He’s a silly wet. He liked the Jungian fluff and the sense of insight which is spurious and leads nowhere, while struggling for neutrality. Staying neutral when someone is hellbent on destroying your civilisation isn’t noble and brave. It’s blackest treachery.
The Indian subcontinent diaspora would be interesting to watch in this regard. I suspect quite a few will end up going home when their aspirations are not fulfilled to the satisfaction of their dreams, and as the mortgage interest rates climb.
Brilliant.
Only for people with monkeypox.
And:
I doubt they’ll go back in Biloela. The ‘outpouring of community support’ – that I saw, at least – was from a couple of whiny tree-changers yapping about the family having settled into the bedrock of the town.
Depends on what you mean by ‘settled’. Small towns like that have long wait times before you’re considered part of it.

In fact, they’ll be absorbed into one of the big city Sri Lankan communities. After the obligatory brief stay in one of the million dollar single-fronted townhouses with ‘Refugees Welcome Here’ signs out the front.
Which will be a bit shambolic, because they’re not refugees.
OK Cats, I’m going to get all controversial.

The blog has been misbehaving ever since it went to large font in the blockquotes.
ftb, what’s the bad blood between Barnes/ Baris and Berenson about? They are claiming he folded in order to get back on Twitter.

If the if the two white people are grifters and nicked the money then fair enough.
If the money was actually used to help keep the others…
Perhaps larger blockquote font would fix it.
Pancho, the large font blockquotes haven’t been in evidence since last weekend or possibly earlier.
If it’s any consolation, Doves, everything appears to be working as expected (for a change).
You deserve better than trying to satisfy a bunch of very loud “commentaters*” …
*Deliberate, you pedants. 🙂
Matt Canavan very good in that clip above. He may be a Senator but he could be drafted in for a run as Liberal leader if the going got tough. Hawke was drafted in, late, and won hugely. After two and a half more years of Labor and the Greens, who knows what might be in the minds of the voters and who will become heir to the political throne, the person they seek to change directions? I think it will need to be someone like Canavan, who has fire and says what everyone is thinking. Pauline does that, but she’s a muddling communicator. Matt speaks well, easily, and cuts through strongly.
I feel as do Calli and Cassie; a sense of rejection and hopelessness and a desire to retreat into my own world and my own concerns. I think I will do so for a while; feel less involved and be less involved. Each of us must find our own accommodation to these mad times. This small holiday is doing me good.
They are claiming he folded in order to get back on Twitter.
He kind of did.
Berenson is shooting from the hip at the moment.
Needs to get back to long form data analysis.
Berenson is going out of his way to dump on anyone who supported him over the past two years.

Small holiday fun tonite. We decided to use the little kitchen in this one-bedroom apartment and have a good home-cooked meal of steak and salad with sweet potato chips, and relax ‘at home’. The pub meal last nite had been disappointing. There is a fully equipped kitchen but the induction stove is one of those ones with obscure modes of operation, sliding your finger and tapping lightly and hopefully in the right place, for nothing was apparent. The stove got greasy, the tapping stopped working, the steak was on high and we couldn’t turn the damn hotplates down, the extractor fan was feeble and the fire alarm went off just after I had raced to open the doors to the balcony and started waving a tea-towel around to dispell the fug. This is a very large resort complex and I was feared we would call the place out, with everyone having to troop downstairs.
But the alarm stopped, I continued waving my teatowel getting a through draft via the entrance door to the open balcony door, and soon there appeared a security man and a housekeeper woman. They were very nice. Cooking? they enquired. Those stoves are so difficult to work, consoled the woman. No worries, said the security, you’ve got the extractor fan on and the doors open, the alarms off on the main console downstairs, and we’ve investigated, but next time, don’t open the door to the corridor as this can bring out the whole building.
He thought there would be a next time! I’m never coming back to this stove again.
Strong jobs number.
Seems too strong.
Pity about the participation rate.
In two research reports this week I’ve seen the following numbers quoted.
As at end of Dec 2019 debts to the ATO were 10bill.
As at end if June 2022 debts to the ATO were 60bill.
Can’t seem to find the data behind it but a few parties are now quoting each other.
If true, that’s a pretty penny.
FTB, that is very strange behavior. The current regime is merciless. It plays you off against family, friends, and allies because it wants you alone.
end of June.
Very DB.
Berenson is on the spectrum.
That’s why his long form data analysis is so good.

ATO went through an unannounced process to take debts off the record as “uncollectable” 3-4 years ago. Reduced the amount of unpaid tax to buggery for government reporting.
Of course, the debt was easily resurrected especially if a tax return was lodged with a refund result.

Yes, I know. I momentarily forgot but he could still be drafted. Nats might be the main game by then, or the Libs may have to give way and invite him in. I don’t have a crystal ball. He just seems a likely bright spark in a very dim picture right now.
Rosie, at 8.45 last nite, German warmie lady realising that coal is best.
Gives one hope, as does the set of Jewish twins turning one hundred.
Thanks Cats. Very upcheering. And thanks for the site, Dover.
Appreciate a man who stands up for the C19th social theorists (apart from Marx).
They did useful work in providing a focus on social stability and the changes of modernity.
ps The Cat is working well from Mooloolabah on my laptop.
Haven’t ever had any problems on it in Sydney either.
You’re posting on the old thread, Lizzie.
Glad you enjoyed the link, Rosie.
Sad she is a warmie, but there you are.
Economics and resource extraction are a little out of her wheelhouse but she still makes a robust case for nuclear on environmental grounds and the human cost, and she is alive to the fact that whatever the economics now she is still open minded, seeing that things evolve with time – a concept greenies and most warmies are determined to remain blind to.
Typically greenies will insist that nuclear is not economic and then sit smugly back as if they have delivered the last word (this is when talking to someone open to nuclear despite all the ooga-booga that greenies, hippies, and other luddites have been prattling on with since the 60s). But she acknowledges that nuclear would get cheaper, and then went on to discuss new forms of nuclear already heading that way.
One of the commenters is a lecturer at UNSW on a mining discipline who points out to her that the estimate of uranium available to us would be severely limited by the reluctance to search for and identify new reserves in these benighted ‘green’ times. But if, for example, the reserves of copper as known in 1980 happened to be all their was, we would have run out in the 2010’s (or thereabouts).
Clearly we haven’t.
And I love the way she pronounces Einstein – in German!
The blog needs updating and its own site?

Wow, just at clorox putting it all down.
Hey Doves, check your email, Squire.
Thought tonight’s radio show would involve a brief introduction and now I feel like I’ve just written a bloody essay.

Clorox thinks he’s doxed me.
Clorox if you think this intimidates me in any way, you have to wrong person, you sad fucker.
It could be the Thought Leadership again wanting to take over the blog.
Look at Clorox try and go for it. He actually thinks this scares me.
Tacked me down? How sad are you clorox – tracking people down.
Okay
That’s a threat and first thing Monday morning I’ll speak to my lawyer and get advice. I’m sure he’ll then take it to the federal police. I’m not stopping now until I find out who you are, Clorox.
Timothy Neilson:
We don’t trust these bastards.
And this is one reason why.
…and which states of Australia are still in a State of Emergency?
You made a threat Clorox and attempts at doxing people is illegal.
After an attempt at doxing you made this threat.
Let’s see how it works out for you, you lowlife.
Oh now, you’re sucking up Clorox? I don’t care how much it costs. You made a threat and that’s not going away.
Bigger man than you’ll ever be, you coward. Attempting to dox and threaten people over the internet because you don’t like what they’re saying and doing so under a covered name. I don’t care how much it costs. You don’t make a threat toward me and get away with it, you pathetic turd.
Another threat? You’re pathetic.

But did I ever pick you Glorox? Did I make you unhappy?
What other threats do you have in mind, Glorox? Shooting me in the back?
Patrick Kelly:
The increased cost of the immigrants lurks and perks mean our people are taxed harder and cannot afford as many kids.
It’s about replacement, essentially.
Yes, you are a low life, Clorox. I’m happy to say it.
But, what about the threats? Stop ignoring all those threats you want to make.
ZK2A:
Worthwhile doing for that purpose alone.
Anymore threats clorox? Yes I agree, about your parents too.
Sure, and I choose. You coward, get out of my face.
Detail the costs, Turtlehead. We’d like to see a breakdown of the costs you’re asserting.
Go!
Why would I respond to a piece of shit on the web about parents, who makes threats and tries to dox people you disgusting lowrent cunt, Clorox. You don’t count. You dox people and threaten them.
If you think you’ll get away with the threat you’re in turnip land.
Threats and now lies about parental abuse, Clorox.
You’re very basic.

“I have a vague memory of someone being able to create an EMP without nuclear weapons …”
IIRC, a linear array of single-loop coils and some conventional explosive at one end.
Coil spacing, current interruption and explosive shock wave velocity arranged such that all the “edges” of the magnetic field collapse in each coil align, creating the desired sharp-edged pulse in one direction (opposite end to explosive).
Obviously less intense than nuclear, but also can be a “focused” attack too – you can take out radar, comms etc at the military sites without wiping out all the civilian infrastructure too. And of course, no radioactivity issues either. And presumably can be assembled with minimal training and little “restricted” materials.
