I’m waiting for any referendum campaign to get onto the subject of reparations. I’m standing by my claim that, given that Australia was claimed in the name of His Majesty, George 111, and there’s nothing in the Constitution on the subject, the British Crown should pay the bill for reparations.
Reading the comments by Graceless – obviously failed English Expression in primary school.
When I was arrested at the Canberra protests, they asked me if I identified as ‘aboriginal or torres strait islander’
I said ‘yes
They said ‘which’
I said ‘both’
They said ‘both’??
I said ‘yes, both’.
They looked doubtful, but did ask if I wanted a visit from the aboriginal liason officer.
I feel guilty – I added to the number of incarcerated Indigenes by one, but on the other hand, they did give me a private room for my stay!
If you are so inclined watch The China Show on youtube, the same chaps who created ADV China. Internally China appears to have some very serious problems with banks failing and no bail outs no reserve so the people lose their money. Food shortages are also occurring, protests are growing.
I don’t know how accurate the two chaps are and they probably are overstating the problems but I think the CCP is very much preoccupied with internal stability and these recent military displays are for the domestic base. The CCP warned of big trouble with the visit but all they did was burn a few hundred millions dollars on a fireworks display.
Unfortunately they have the Joe Rogan effect; Lots of blather between good content.

Ewww. Haggard skank.
Someone emulating that Victorian era author, H Rider Haggard?
Either she didnt know who he was, or she took him for a good faith actor.
In the latter case, it doesn’t reflect poorly on her but on him.
Yes he is a nasty piece of work. Shows being stupid doesn’t preclude you from being rich. I guess the North Shore private ejucashun helps.

Alas, no improvement in High School either
So the Victorian Liberals have decided to support an emissions target higher than the Federal Labor government. You have to wonder why such a suicidal decision was made, I suppose there a few reasons, one is that Groundhog Guy and his motley crew think such a decision will stave off Labor and any prospective “STeals” who challenge. One of the Victorian Liberal MPs (alas there aren’t many) who’s pushed this is the current member for “Brighton”, a man named “James Newbury” who, it was revealed last week, was spied having lunch with Svengali Simon himself, presumably a cosy chat over red wine and some stuffed zucchini flowers, so as to persuade Svengali Simon that the Liberals will happily sell their souls to him so long as he doesn’t field “Teal” candidates in any of the few remaining Liberal held blue ribbon state seats.
Sadly, selling your soul to Svengali Simon doesn’t persuade him to back off, in fact it probably does the opposite, it empowers him, as evidenced by the disastrous federal results in May, when the Liberals lost all their “net zero emissions” MPs, so the news is that Svengali Simon is now advertising for “STeal” candidates for the Victorian state election due in November, specifically to run in the electorates of Kew and wait for it……Brighton.
Memo to Mr Newbury, weren’t you told to never make a pact with the devil? Because the devil will win and you will lose.

There is definitely no hint of serving the best interests of the public. That would be silly.

How Baz Luhrmann Made Australia Look Like Memphis to Film “Elvis”
Ahead of the movie’s worldwide release on June 24, let’s explore where “Elvis” was filmed.
Was “Elvis” Filmed at Graceland Mansion?
Despite Graceland being the famous residence of Presley for several years, Luhrmann did not choose the property as a backdrop for scenes in the film. Instead, the principal photography and shooting of the film took place somewhere quite unexpected, one could argue.
Where Was “Elvis” Filmed?
“Elvis” was filmed in Queensland, Australia. Production of the film took place in the Gold Coast region of Queensland, which sits slightly south of Brisbane along the country’s eastern coast. Regarding the film’s location, Luhrmann, an Australian native, told Australian radio station ABC, “Putting it bluntly, we’ve really fallen in love with the Gold Coast as a place, the people of the Gold Coast, and also the creative energy of the Gold Coast.”
Despite the production of the film taking place across the globe from Presley’s home country, Luhrmann and the production team worked hard to replicate the singer’s past residences, including the notable Graceland estate. According to Vogue, “Luhrmann fully recreated the Colonial Revival mansion in a Queensland studio, along with the sets for Elvis’s Las Vegas performances in the late ’60s and early ’70s.”
While “Elvis” may have been filmed away from the late musician’s home country and state, it still captures the essence of his roots and the places he cherished so dearly. Watch the extraordinary life of Presley in “Elvis,” which hits theatres on June 23.
Let’s just say the “swipe right” finger is somewhat indiscriminate.

This happens to every Filipina I’ve sponsored/employed.
Some of them become quite stressed over it, all of them find it distressing.
I’m not sure I can put into words just how distasteful, how offensive it to them, for a well raised & strict Roman Catholic woman to be automatically assumed to be an eager & willing prostitute.
They consequently hold Australian Anglo-Saxon culture to be inferior for this conduct to be so prevalent & to rise to the surface so easily.
It is difficult to reach any conclusion other than in this, the women are correct.
Thank you so much for this.
All the people here have declared they no longer trust the medical profession – good luck with that. Ya nuts.
The main problem seems to be the outfit run by the vet.
Yup. Both sides roughly equal. That’s what I’m seeing. It ain’t pretty.
But Norks!
Rabz, I just finished watching an old repeat of ‘Death in Paradise’ and it brought to mind ‘The Specials’ made known to me through your last Radio Show via MatrixTransform.
Thanks.

There are very few fullbloods in Thorpe’s home patch of Northcote – or, as it’s known in certain circles, ‘Norfcut’ or ‘Norfct caant’.
Couldn’t any negotiated land rights agreement, be described as a “de facto” Treaty?
I have come across many Filipina wives and girlfriends dotted throughout the various mining towns and camps in NorWest WA.
Many of these are “ticket brides”, brought out from the Phillipines by marriage agents targeting lonely single blokes working the mines.
Without generalising too much, a big percentage of these women are decent types who put up with harsh and lonely conditions pursuing a better life, but there is also a significant number who are avaricious dishonest sluts who clean out some poor smitten fools bank account and are gone into the melting pot in the big cities as soon as the bank account has hit zero.
Very sad to see some big ugly miner heartbroken when finding his house cleaned out, his bank account raided and his “loving” bride in the wind.
They are not all saints.
Aaaaand that’s this week’s topic, and the next and the next.
Superb comment Pedro. Accurate AF, and also perfectly describes a type of tart ADF people ‘meet overseas’ and bring home to comparative largesse. Had more than one mate return home to the same scenario.
I’d be very, very surprised if they have even half of that, incl. DPR/LPR.

John Cleese Doubles Down on Slavery, Reparations Jokes Amid Backlash
John Cleese has hit back at his critics after facing a backlash over jokes he made about slavery while taking part in a talk at the South by Southwest (SXSW) film festival.
The Monty Python star, 82, fronted the “John Cleese in Conversation” event in Austin, Texas, on March 11, alongside fellow comedians Dulcé Sloan, Jim Gaffigan, and Ricky Velez, when the subject of colonization was raised.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, Cleese said to Sloan, who is Black, that the British gave her “free passage” to the U.S., in reference to slavery. He also said the British are owed reparations by Italy, a joking reference to the Roman conquest of Britain nearly 2,000 years ago.
The British-born star is quoted as adding: “History is a history of crime. It’s a history of people who were stronger beating up people who were weaker, and it’s always been that. It’s deeply, deeply distasteful. But to pretend that one lot were worse than another—you do know the British have been slaves twice, right?”
Later returning to the topic, Cleese said: “[People] get competitive about this business of being oppressed. We were oppressed, the English, by the Romans for 400 [years], from about 0 to 400.”
“I want reparations from Italy,” Cleese, star of A Fish Called Wanda, commented, adding: “And then the Normans came over in 1066… they were horrible people from France, and they came and colonized us for 30 years—we need reparations there too, I’m afraid.”
Had more than one mate, married to an Aussie sheila, return home to the same situation. Cleaned out the house and the bank account and “shot through” with the new boyfriend.
Poor Jacinta, to be harrassed by this bossy self-important man after he had the temerity to call her a racist, when she is a genuinely aboriginal woman who stands up for a better deal for her people than the deal they are being offered by the faux supporters of the so-called voice. This should give many more people cause to vote NO against this useless piece of meaningless symbolism. Stay strong, Jacinta.
Judith Durham – Breathe On Me Breath Of God
Eggsactly pedro. The human brain is an incredible pattern forming machine. If there’s some sort of pattern, it picks up on it and there is a pattern in terms of what you described and despite what the Driller says.
This saintly, virtuous religious bilge the lunatic (Driller) is posting is the eggsact opposite of what he’s said countless times about various ethnic groups – all of it anecdotal crap.
Maybe, just maybe I have it all wrong though and the Driller is in the throes of converting to Roman Catholicism with a view to eventually becoming a priest, bishop and finally pope in his later years. Who knows.
There was one certain unit, which shall remain nameless, which had a “Rogues Gallery”, of the more notorious camp followers, on the unit noticeboard…
A completely Captain Obvious statement:
Dover – I’m just saying what I’m seeing. I have no side in this fight. I know a few Russians as friends but no Ukrainians.
You’re probably getting towards accuracy if you more than halve the casualty figures the other side publishes for their enemy. Propaganda being what it is. Which gets you to near equal losses.
I think the Ukrainians have lost more since the Russians have been using massed artillery tactics, although that has slowed recently. There’s a limit on how much artillery ammunition they squirreled away, and the amount they’ve been using is phenomenal. On the other hand the Russians also have been forced in the last few days to move units down to the Kherson area, which suggests the Ukrainian counterattacks have hurt some.
If you take a step back though, and look at the maps, you’d be hard pressed to tell which side was doing better in the last two months. It’s damn near static. Which also implies equal losses.
In text messages to The Australian, an agitated FitzSimons declared her account of the conversation “was not a matter of interpretation”. “Complete and utter DEFAMATORY nonsense, as I told her … will hand recording to (Sydney Morning Herald) lawyers and pursue. You have been so advised,” he said. He said it was a “friendly interview” and that he did not raise his voice at all.
This bastard works for nein; and before the Judgment in BRS even comes down here we have nein threatening another disapproved person; no matter if she is a black woman. If the lnp don’t come out all limp dicks blazing in her support she should resign immediately and join PHON.
Having said that I hope she has learnt her lesson in dealing with the scum left media.

Then for sentimental reasons taped The Silencers which is unwatchable.
It’s the last two months that have been a nightmare for UKR casualty- and territory- wise. Lost Poposna, all of Luhansk, pushing now into Bahkmut and Soledar. The line above Donetsk is faltering. Interesting to see what happens around Kherson.
Come on, Bruce. People have memories, y’know.
Putin can claim to kill 1/8 of his enemy’s army, he has nukes and also claims “popular support” and he still can’t win against a country, nay a nation he says does not even exist?
Plenty of unusual domestic arrangements in mining towns. Goes with the territory unfortunately. Best avoided if you can.
If there is some kind of situation developing with Chinese banks I wonder if HK will be roped in. HSBC in HK might find itself in the mire. As I understand it the international banks like Citi run their own Chinese operation sequestered and therefore not insulated from what happens on the mainland.
Years ago ,knew a bloke who split up with his wife of 20 years and decided he was God’s gift to women.Whilst being quite trim I thought he had a head like a robbers dog.
Anyway he had a few romantic exploits and then met this very attractive woman about 10 to 15 years younger with a young child.
They moved into his house and started playing happy .
families.About two weeks later he chastised the young girl and mum was not happy.
When he got home from work a couple of days later they were gone as was everything in the house.His clothes food private possessions everything including his Jag.House was totally empty.
Apparently she went interstate.Not certain if he got anything back.
I saw it was on after Operation Petticoat which I taped ’cause Cary Grant but read the blurb on The Silencers and thought better of taping it
Oh God!
This comes up an awful lot.
I have found myself in that position more than once.
