There is beginning to be a bit od a ferment among some of the traditional “allies” of the trans freak brigade.

It’s incredibly easy to criticise Susie Green, the influential and, as of Friday, ex-CEO of Mermaids. But I’d like to say this in her defence: she never lied about who she was.
From her early interviews in 2012, when her trans daughter, Jackie, then 19, became a Miss England finalist, Green, then an IT-manager, was utterly open about how she first knew her child was trans: “As a toddler, Jackie always headed for the dolls in toy shops.” And if a four-year-old looking at dolls weren’t evidence enough that this child should be committed to a lifetime of medicalisation, Green added, “[Jackie] loathed having her hair cut.” Green put Jack — as he was then known — on puberty-blockers and flew him to Thailand for a sex change operation when he was 16, making him the youngest person in the world to undergo that surgery.
She merrily recalls in a YouTube interview that because Jack’s penis hadn’t developed due to the blockers, “there wasn’t much for the surgeon to work with” when constructing their vagina. “Sorry, Jackie!” she laughs.
….
Since 2017, I regularly asked editors at the newspaper where I worked if I could write about Mermaids in general and Green specifically, because it was so obvious that something was very wrong here. The answer, always, was no, but the reasons given were fuzzy: it wouldn’t be right in that section, they couldn’t see the news peg, it felt too niche. A more likely reason was one articulated to me with some passion on social media any time I tweeted anything sceptical about Green or Mermaids: to question either was to wish trans children would die. Doubt the charity, hate the cause, in other words. Weirdly, this attitude seems to hold true only for charities connected to trans issues: no one, as far as I know, screamed that The Times hates starving people when they investigated Oxfam in 2018 about allegations that some of its workers paid for sex.

I’m impressed by a guy who does an interview with a whole wall of live poisonous spiders behind him.
Here at the Cafe there are very few spiders since the noisies have eaten them. I no longer get coastal greys or orb spiders. Still are a few small green ones around as the noisy miners arrive with them in their beaks, on the way to feed their kids. Which lets me add a tiny bit of bread and a shred of mince to go with the green spider. Italian food today!

– Noel Pearson in a nutshell
They did indeed, and he is buried in Shechem, near Nabulus.
His earlier burial site in Egypt has been discovered in Goshen, the Nile delta area. It’s interesting that he was a red-head, the Hebrew slaves shown in the ancient Egyptian murals have a range of hair colours, from blondes to red heads to dark brown which came no doubt from the varied women the Hebrew men took for wives, even King David from Judah was a red-head.
Joseph’s tomb in Shechem was vandalised some years ago by some ‘Palestinian’ people who like destroying things. Two men, a Jewish Rabbi and a Druze soldier in the IDF, died trying to protect Joseph’s tomb. Joseph’s sons are scattered throughout the English speaking world, none of his descendants stood to protect their father’s tomb, most probably wouldn’t know and wouldn’t care.

Mermaids has found itself under scrutiny after deciding to bring a case against the LGB Alliance, the only UK-based organisation that focuses exclusively on same-sex attracted people. Mermaids claims it was not, in fact, established to support lesbians, gay men and bisexuals — but rather to discredit and disband trans charities like itself. The outrageous claims and questions by Mermaids witnesses and counsel during the tribunal, such as asking if lesbians can have penises, and suggesting that the term ‘same sex attraction’ is ‘exclusionary’, has led to many individuals asking hard questions about the organisation.
…
That children who feel uncomfortable in their own bodies are trans and should be put forward for puberty blockers and sex change surgery will surely will go down as the biggest medical scandal since Thalidomide.
Whatever is happening within Mermaids, I hope every single person and organisation that offered it unconditional support, and ignored the red flags and warnings, are lying awake at night in dread. Their role in this will not go unnoticed when the truth comes out.
Recently, the Charity Commission opened a regulatory compliance case into Mermaids after a number of complaints that it fails to safeguard young people. I would call for a police investigation into its practices, as well as a public inquiry. Susie Green’s departure is only the beginning. Mermaids must fall.

What is it with these new sorts of suitcases, all of them hard cased and difficult to push into a car boot?
Hairy and I went shopping yesterday for a new suitcase because the zip on our big old faithful blue Samsonite is looking like giving out on our next trip. It needed my careful ministrations to keep going in the US recently. We went to DJ’s – all of the suitcases were like plastic trunks. Then to Myer, the same. Then to a suitcase place, ditto. Very few suitcases with soft covers and zips, and only smaller ones.
All the main brands have moved to the hard stuff. I’ve never liked it when Samsonite were the first the make that move, and now there is nothing else.
Wot is going on? First world problem of course, and I did see quite a snazzy one for $785 but I’d prefer what used to be the ordinary soft but extendable zipper sort you could get about .. um … must be eight years ago now.
Oh, and they’ve all got four wheels now, not two.
I almost can’t count the number of people I’ve had to assist to tilt their four-wheelers to pull along two-wheels when their four wheels were becoming unmanageable.
I have always found it a most helpful reference and window on the zeitgeist. Also trusted bloggers.

WaPo Tells Americans To Eat Bugs As They Can No Longer Afford Traditional Seasonal Dinners (29 Nov)
“The Washington Post advised Americans Sunday that instead of a traditional season dinner, which now is unaffordable for a quarter of families, they should instead look to eating bugs. … In an article headlined “Salted ants. Ground crickets. Why you should try edible insects”, the Post stated “Consumers can already find foods like salted ants on Amazon and cricket powder protein bars in Swiss grocery stores.”
…
The piece quoted a six year old girl in Pennsylvania who was supposedly given a rousing ovation by onlookers for eating fried worms.
The piece states “It’s not that bad!” she exclaimed. “It kind of tastes like kettle corn!” “
Hopefully WaPo serves nothing but insects and vegetables to their staff in their canteen.
Democracy Dies in Darkness, after which you eat bugs and like it.
(The WaPo photo is surreal btw.)
Suitcases have also become more pricey, and it’s not just inflation. It’s the type they make.

In Adolf Gallands book on the fighter arm of the Luftwaffe, after the “Pilots Revolt” in 1944, they formed a squadron of experts flying the Me 262 and FW 190d.
There was a short strike by the Me 262 test pilots – probably the only strike that didn’t end in the sound of a firing squad in the Third Reich. One of their number got shot down by a Thunderbolt and as the test pilots were civilians the MK108 30 mm cannons weren’t allowed to be loaded. The strikers demanded that they were and so it was done.

“The time for complete and utter renewal of the Party has arrived. Make no mistake, the deadwood needs to go and if they don’t then will need to be removed,” one senior Liberal said.
“The Liberal Party (has) a clear choice. Either renew, rebuild and head towards the centre ground of politics or move further to the fringes of society.
“Elections are won in the middle by engaging with the mainstream and not pandering to the worst elements of our society …
Whoever uttered this is the problem. Firstly their statement may be true but they aren’t being generous, they want a purge that Guy tried especially with Limbrick.
Secondly a large section of the community won’t vote for Labor lite, they either fracture their vote among the right minor parties, vote informal or if inclined just vote for the real thing. Despite that inconvenient fact, where is the centre now? These goalposts have been shifted the full pitch now and very subjective to political view unlike when I was younger.
As for pandering to the worst elements of society, hate to say that river has well and truly been crossed.
I reckon I can write the review now, a bag full of woke recommendations and more of the failures that got them to where they are anyway.

I was sad to see them go…busted zips and all. The boat trip between islands in the Galapagos did them in. Their zips anyway – salt corrosion. After that there’s no return.
Now we have some smart new ones, and I’m going to buy trackers for them as well. Best to be mentally prepared for the bad news before the luggage carousel.

In October 2022, Dr Jacob Breslow resigned as a trustee of Mermaids after it was revealed that he spoke at a conference organised by B4U-ACT, a paedophile support group, as a PhD student in 2011. In a statement, Mermaids described the organisation as “completely at odds” with its values, and said that “Once notified we took swift and decisive action to investigate … Safeguarding is of the utmost importance to Mermaids and the safety of the young people we support is our highest priority.”[48] Belinda Bell, the chair of trustees, apologised for the distress caused by the news of Breslow’s links to the group, and said that he should never have been appointed to the board.
You know. The best way to defeat ‘China’s’ zero covid and illegal imprisonment of people is to organise raids on the concentration camps, free the people, and distribute them all over the city as quickly as possible. The numbers of QR codes going red would be impossible to control.
With the mention of girls and dolls, there is currently a new sort of doll – of course – being marketed. We found out when we asked about the Christmas wish lists of our grandchildren in Queensland, for whom we also went shopping on our suitcase expedition yesterday. Kidstuff were, after all, having a 30% off sale and I am a sucker for a bargain. The new doll craze is the Our Generation doll: a nice normal looking big doll about 1.5 feet tall, dressed to convey a specific character – e.g. I am Lucy the Vet, I am Miranda the Gardener (not their real names, lol). The Vet had some appealing equipment, stethescopre etc, but the gardener didn’t look like much of thrill, in her green woolen cardie. Also available were non-specific Our Gen dolls, who were attired in very pretty dresses and diamonds. They were clearly happy enough to head for the marriage market. No bride dolls though, as in my day. Oh how I had longed for one with every fibre of my girish being, but these frothy delights were way above my childhood pay grade.
Our girls already have two each of these Our Generation dolls. Our job was to provide some more secondary apparel at sixty bucks a pop, special carry cases and of course each grandie would also like to have a cute little going-out bag with an even cuter little puppy in it, similarly priced.

Defence Minister Richard Marles has indicated the generals who commanded special forces soldiers accused of war crimes in Afghanistan will not be stripped of distinguished service medals, with the penalty to be reserved for those who directly led the troops.
Defence Force Chief Angus Campbell has written to officers who held senior command positions in Afghanistan when the war crimes identified in the Brereton Report were alleged to have occurred.
But Mr Marles told parliament on Monday that, in line with the recommendations of Justice Paul Brereton, Defence was not seeking to strip medals from personnel who held positions above the level of task group commander when the alleged crimes occurred.
The decision indicates Defence is limiting its assessment of command accountability for the alleged murders of Afghan civilians and prisoners to officers who were ranked from captain to lieutenant colonel at the time.

yes I’d like to know who said that and what he meant- church goers? anti abortion people? Sorry I voted for them in the LA now- probably should have voted informal. They really don’t get it.
We will look out for of the soft shell sort in the post Christmas sales of old stock (for clearly they are the going the way of the dinosaurs) and take the old blue one up to Queensland. Hairy’s smaller business-travel Samsonite is too small for Christmas gear for us both and we’ve already tossed any others. If old trusty irredemably pops its zip we can just sling it in the car and access it from there and send it into a lonesome final orbit when we get home. Hope it lasts the distance though to Qld, much less bother.

Thanks for that. It’s really good news about Susie Green stepping down from “Mermaids”. This woman took her son to Thailand when he was 16 to be castrated. I suspect Green was…ahem…gently pushed. The wheels have been slowly falling off Green and Mermaids over the last few months, particularly since the NHS decided to shut down the Tavistock Clinic, but I suspect what really precipitated the departure of Green has been the disclosure that one of its board of directors is a pedophile advocate, oops I’ll just rephrase that in the new parlance….a “minor attracted” advocate and another was busted for child porn. How unsurprising! Mermaids was originally set up over twenty years ago as a support group for parents who had children, mainly boys (in fact almost always boys), who suffered from gender dysphoria, it was Green and her comrades who radicalised the organisation and made it a mouthpiece for radical gender theory.
But the demise of Green, the closure of Tavistock, the discrediting of Stonewall and so on owes a lot to some strong and feisty UK women. Trans rights activists (mainly autogynephiliac men or perverts as they should be properly called) love to smear the UK as “TERF island” because many UK women, Kathleen Stock, Helen Joyce, Helen Staniland, Julie Bindel, J K Rowling, Kellie Jay Keen, Caroline Farrow, Jo Bartosch, Allison Bailey, Maya Forstater, Bev Jackson, Kate Harris, Sarah Phillimore, and some men like Harry Miller, Graham Linehan, Andrew Doyle and others have been fighting this sinister ideology and for their activism they have been cancelled, endured job losses, and the women have been threatened with rape and death.
Kathleen Stock lost her job at Sussex University (she was hounded out), Graham Linehan has been cancelled, he can’t get any gigs, Germaine Greer silenced, yet most remained unflinching against the abuse and the silencing. It’s also interesting that many of the aforementioned names have nothing in common politically but what has brought them together and what motivates them is fighting this dangerous ideology. All credit to them.

What a bastard pearson is. The Voice, detailed or otherwise, will be more than a lawyer’s picnic, it will make aboriginal activism inviolate. ATSIC was able to be abolished because it was only established by parliament not by the constitution and Geoff Clark’s corruption could end. The Voice will be untouchable and the Clarks, Thorpes, Bineys and Pearsons of the world will be untouchable.
Anyway, fuck him; he’s not fit to wipe Jacinta’s feet.

If their children later reject this often encouraged or even enforced ‘transition’ I do wonder how the parents involved are going to cope with their regret and particularly their guilt. And how are the mangled children going to feel about the way in which their parents failed to protect them?
” The Voice will be untouchable and the Clarks, Thorpes, Bineys and Pearsons of the world will be untouchable.”
The Voice is about enshrining an Indigenous aristocracy who will milk us, smear us, dictate to us and lord it over us and if we object, we’re racists and rednecks. I think Noel Pearson today has actually done the NO vote a great service. He’s spoken truthfully about how he views ordinary non-indigenous Australians. He hates us. Thanks for speaking the truth Noel.
Linda Burney is already on record as saying that “Once the Voice is enshrined in the Constitution, they won’t be able to get rid of it, the way they did ATSIC.”

For decades the WA Liberals have long been a wayward, peculiar and separate entity to the federal Liberals.
Monty Python had a skit about a killer joke so lethal that when translating it in to German they assigned each translator only a single word. One translator accidentally saw two words and spent several weeks in hospital.
That is what Urban Dictionary is like. When you suspect there is is a legitimate definition buried in there to have to skim the definitions from the top so you may discount the garbage ones.
It always means grabbing a few words at a glance. A very sordid experience.
My point is that it is generally agreed upon by those who’ve had dealings with him that Pearson is as you say.
calli I need your assistance in identifying a flowering plant I saw — in fact at first glance it appeared to be a hedge of white butterflies, at a closer look what I thought were butterflies were in fact little tiny flowers that looked like butterflies resting on long slender reed-like stems.

The abc interview where the prick was given carte blanche to spew shit on the lovely Jacinta is just a taste of what is to come. I’m in 2 minds as to what its effect on the punters will be. If Jacinta and others lead a powerful fight against the fucking voice it may fail; but as the latest capitulation in victoristan showed the punters will run from a weak position which is all the lnp is capable of.
In other good news, Renee Heath, who was kicked out by the bug eyed little shit matthew guy, looks to be the goods as well.
By her own admission Burney did not meet her indigenous family until she was well into adulthood.
I’ll take Jacinta’s “lived experience” over that any day.

The 43-year-old has been charged with attempting to pervert the course of justice, destroying evidence, fabricating evidence, unlawful entry into a building, unlawful entry into a dwelling, making a false declaration, and interfering with witnesses in a criminal investigation.
Mr Wright was bailed and will appear in Darwin Local Court at 9:30am on Wednesday.

Burney’s father did the merry deed and went his way, ignorant of her very existence – she was born in 1957, and met her father in 1984. Her mother handed her over to relatives as soon as she was born – after meeting her father, Burney discovered she had ten siblings.
That’s no good, Dr Beau! I’ll be out of a jerb!
If anyone out there thinks that women on the right of politics are not the subject of vile smears and ridicule, I give you the example last week of Liberal candidate Renee Heath, trashed by the left because she’s a Christian and because her father is a conservative pastor, and this week we have the example of Jacinta Price, trashed by the left as a racist because she dares to oppose the racist “Voice”. This comes on the heels of the left’s trashing of Gina Rinehart, Nicolle Flint, Rita Panahi, Peta Credlin, Pauline Hanson and so on.

“I’ll take Jacinta’s “lived experience” over that any day.”
Ahh….yep. Price grew up in Alice. I’ve heard her talk about the dysfunction in her mother’s indigenous family and extended kin. That dysfunction comprises alcohol and other substance abuse, sexual and domestic violence, delinquency, truancy and so on. Price herself has experienced physical violence. Jacinta is proud of her heritage through her mother but she’s also fully aware of its negative side.
Jacinta’s a relative of Kumanjayi Walker. She’s knows about the toxic dysfunction endemic in remote communities like hers. Whereas Pearce, Burney, Thorpe and all the other leaches talk the talk, Jacinta Price walks the walk.
Jeez, it sounds like Albo’s Carnival cruise.
The ‘Voice’ will get up simply because they will cheat. The ‘votes’ have already been counted.
Cheers Lizzie – yes, brave lads.
I note the awfully famous Outback Wrangler turned up here with his missus and kiddies in tow.
I reckon he’ll be using them as human shields against the enormous brothers of his former secretary, who he somehow accidentally got pregnant before he packed his family up and moved them interstate about three days after the chopper prang.
It’s interesting to note that Elons Twitter post I linked to this morning regarding his bed side table contained a picture.

It’s interesting
The Voice will get up because of the “Vibe.”” Aboriginal Australia was invaded – 100,000 men, women and children were killed in the “Frontier Wars.” Their land was stolen from them. Their children were snatched from their mothers loving arms, and sold into slavery. Aborigines were not citizens, they didn’t have the vote, they were “Flora and Fauna” until 1967. Right all the past wrongs – Vote “Yes” to the Voice. Their souls will be crushed if a brutal, uncaring, racist Australia votes “No.”
so is the horoscope
No one wants to tell me what the firearm in the picture is. Not a ciggie lighter?

It’s been a while since we’ve heard anything regarding the process of generating prosecutions from the alleged incidents in Afghanistan. Is that because of usual bureaucratic pace of doing things or it is due to evidence (or lack of) issues? Does any Cat know?

So many questions. Who has the answers? Can I just turn the iPad upside down?
That is just pissweak.
Scapegoats, sorted by rank – and by ‘rank’, I mean the number of TED talks and corporate leadership focus groups they’ve been to.
Fucking awful.
Never seen that before, BB.
Hilarious.
As for those who think Teh Voice will prevail at the referendum, I will put the agates on the chopping block and with confidence, say no it won’t.
Most black fellas are apathetic about voting under any circumstance. And most are repulsed by the antics of Thorpe, mark my words.
And after being left high and dry at the hands of Geoff Clark, they see too many bigwigs in Aboriginal politics like Clark, Thorpe and associated families and just can’t stomach it. Nepotism is almost a core tenet of any Aboriginal organisation.
My opinion only of course but I don’t see it succeeding. If it does, it will be by the hand of white academics who of course know what’s best for blacks.

FMD.
The Nationals have split over their opposition to the Voice to parliament less than 24 hours after party leader David Littleproud announced they would formally oppose constitutionally enshrining the body.
As Nationals frontbencher Andrew Gee and the Western Australian state branch broke ranks and publicly backed the Voice, former federal leader Michael McCormack suggested the party could revise its position next year depending on the details of the proposal.
Gee and McCormack should be horse-whipped.

Absolutely agree.
If this all goes through, regardless of rank, if their citation mentions Afghanistan, the medal criteria stipulates warlike conditions and the timelines coincide, it’s a complete abrogation of their responsibility as an Officer to do anything but do likewise hand it back.
If they weren’t responsible for anything bad that happened, they certainly weren’t responsible for anything good, and have accepted it under false pretences.
Very poor form. All or none.
Highly unlikely Moley, Modi and Xi have become very kissy kissy lately. Chinese and Indian troops recently joined together for joint exercises in eastern Russia so things will cool on that front. Peace is breaking out everywhere, even Saudi Arabia and Iran are having joint talks, these nations are in the BRICS alliance or have applied to join.
Even Pakistan has asked Putin for a gas pipeline, will they also become kissy kissy with India?
Things are changing so fast these days.
The hour meter in Outback Wrangler star Matt Wright’s chopper was allegedly disconnected the day it crashed, killing cast member Chris “Willow” Wilson, during a crocodile egg collection mission in a remote part of the Northern Territory.
The Australian also understands pilot Jock Purcell, who was on the February 28 egg collection mission and landed at the crash site, lifted the destroyed helicopter’s dash to check if the Hobbs meter was connected before screwing the dash back down by hand.
This comes after Northern Territory police on Tuesday night charged Mr Wright with attempting to pervert the course of justice, destroying evidence, fabricating evidence, unlawfully entering a building, unlawfully entering a dwelling, making a false declaration and interfering with witnesses in a criminal investigation or court process by making threats/reprisals.
What a prick. In no just society are leaders exempt from accountability of their subordinates. Not knowing shit happened under their command is no excuse. In fact, it’s evidence of their culpability. It means they weren’t watching their subordinates or worse, were taking what they said at face value. An unsceptical leader is an incompetent leader.
And on top of all this, they’re just allegations, proving how much a farce the whole charade is.

Haha, once I asked my mum, would you like an iPad?
Yes, she says, I’d love one!
So I buys it for her, then I spends 6 hours setting it up with all the passwords, and apps and credit card details to the Apple app store, all the Kindle books and everything.
In all of this at some stage I decided I wanted it to convert from portrait view to landscape.
So, as you do, I looked at the manual, and found nothing useful. Then, as you also do, I went online for an answer. Nope nothing. I was completely lost. Flummoxed. Bemused. I knew it could be done, but I couldn’t find out how to do it.
After an hour of stuffing around with it I accidentally physically rotated the iPad from vertical to horizontal.
Amazing! It went into landscape mode!
Moral to this tale is this: never ever assume a geek can do the obvious.
It was the first time I’d ever used anything Apple.
My mum hated the iPad. So it sat in a drawer for ages until I mentioned to my step-brother that it existed, and I think he’s found a use for the thing.
No.
No, no, no. This can’t be right – this man is a doctor (the Tele):

Cohenite, add voter fatigue as to why Aboriginal people won’t vote for this dingleberry. Time taken to get the fucking thing organised, be 30 years.
The old joke about black fella time, about being an hour late for anything, is very much rooted in basic fact.
Taiwan increases in probability due to the one inevitable failure of zero covid. But Taiwan would be a massive failure. 200kms of open ocean would be Russia invading Ukraine x1000 difficulty.
Worse, Taiwanese would literally be fighting to the death. They would almost certainly end up in concentration camps with all their shit being given to the party faithful. They’d never see daylight again and they know it. Millions of Chinese casualties. Unfortunately the will to save face far outweighs the will to be logical and perpetuate the long term benefit of Chinese.
It would be incredibly stupid of Xi, and there’s no certainty he’s not that stupid.
Maybe a stretch … but the one in the back may be a “MUSKet”? He does like puns…

While it doesn’t impact the substantive matter in the article, I thought the hour meter was under the seat, beside the circuit breakers.
That’s my opinion – happy to be proved wrong.

Aboriginal people are not all marginalised, we already have plenty of seats at the table
Saying no to the Voice is standing against division and farcical idea that all Aboriginal people think the same based on our race.

This week the National Party stood for all Australians against racial division.
A core component of our free, liberal democracy is the fundamental principle that every Australian citizen is considered equal under the law.
It is deceitful to continue to peddle the racial stereotype that Aboriginal people are one homogenous group of Australians who all think the same, based on our race.
This farce denies us our right to be respected as individuals.
No other racial group of Australians is framed in this way and rightly so.
The mainstream media and the proponents of the Voice have been peddling this lie to the Australian people and it’s time to stand up to it, call it out and say no.
The basis for the Voice comes from the “Uluru Statement from the Heart” which has been sold to the Australian people on the abovementioned racial stereotype.
Further to this, the Statement – signed by 250 unelected individuals representing 0.03 per cent of Aboriginal Australia without consent of the other 99.97 per cent – does not represent ALL of Aboriginal Australia’s wishes.
The other lie the proponents of the Voice have peddled is the notion that all Australians who identify as Aboriginal or “First Nations” – as they’ve pigeonholed us – are somehow marginalised because of our heritage and currently have no voice or “seat at the table”.
We are not all marginalised as a race and we have plenty of seats at the table with many voices already.
In fact, within the Indigenous Advancement Strategy alone, we have 1100 Aboriginal organisations in this nation that are funded to advance us. We have more than 2000 programs and services nationwide through the Aboriginal Benefits Account that are funded to advance Aboriginal Australians.
We have 11 federally elected representatives with seats in parliament from across parties as the greatest representation of Aboriginal voices in our parliament in the history of our nation.
We have lived long enough under a woke divisive ideology that suggests that Australia is made up of two groups of people: “oppressors” and the “oppressed”. This ideology has also formed the basis for Labor’s Voice campaign and is the same ideology that supporters of the Voice subscribe to when they accuse those who disagree with it as racist.
Every voter in this nation has the right to vote or disagree on a proposal put by any government without being branded racist. Especially given the proposal has zero detail or is likely to be based on the former failed ATSIC model. And this time, Labor wants ATSIC 2.0 enshrined within our Constitution so that if it fails like the first ATSIC, it can never be dismantled. I don’t know about you but this is a recipe for absolute disaster and a slippery slope toward racial segregation. This is why the National Party has drawn a line in the sand and said “No” to the Voice.

The first thing Dan will do is set up the new SEC as a government body . Of course he will have to buy energy company back from Singapore company with super funds so he has announced . Will this end up like Hawke ‘s ventures with the unions trying to run businesses , Solo and the retail store in the corner of Market st ?
David Littleproud is a lightweight.
How can he oppose or support it when Albanese hasn’t released the detail?
Dutton has done the smart thing by waiting for the release and building a case for a Royal Commission into abuse of children in Aboriginal Communities.
Because even in concept, it’s wrong.
How silly would you hafta be to allow Jacinta Price to be a Spokesman for your position.
She looks like she’s never missed 6 square meals a day in her life and her support amongst Aborigines in the NT is so weak that she nearly lost the CLP Senate Seat.
For Sydney Cats Roseville Branch of the Liberal party is hosting a dinner with the speakers Mark Latham and Jacinta Price – details here would love to go but can’t go due to prior commitment.
Ah yes Solo and Bourke’s – the great failed enterprises of the Labor/Union movement – that showed ’em
Because even in concept, it’s wrong.
Andrew Gee and Mick and the WA Branch don’t seem to think so, and they’re unlikely to be the only ones
This enterprise will end up being a State funded retailer which uses general revenue to subsidise electricity bills for select clientele, in exchange for which they’ll pledge their everlasting loyalty (and vote).
It won’t reduce the cost of energy one iota, but it will disguise it for some, using OPM.
Fuck, I’m convinced. What was I thinking?
Calli asked How long were the stems? When you say “hedge”, was it dense or sparse and grass-like?
The stems were about a 750mm and very sparse not a long hedge but like a border _ thought a friend gave me something similar in pink but of course I killed it — you calli have a green thumb whilst I have the five fingers of death — I am trying though now that I have a little more time.
E.g. for dinner last night we had spinach I grew in the garden, well it’s not quite a garden more like a higgly-piggly Italian grotto not much land for anything substantial.
Did Andrew Gee and Mick and the WA Branch share this sentiment, too?
calli here it is —
Littleproud was unconvincing ion his interview with Chris Kenny.
He couldn’t articulate why he was opposing, something about his Traditional Owners saying they weren’t consulted.
So, okay, if Albanese goes to Dirranbandi and consults Littleproud’s Traditional Owners, The Voice is tickety boo, then?
Weak as piss, and it didn’t last a day.
Linda Burney is ‘convenient indigenous’ – when a member in the NSW parliament I recall seeing her regularly about the place – a tiny little lady and wearing heels high enough to cause a nose-bleed — well-dressed but didn’t appear oppressed though
Littleproud does’t argue that the concept is bad.
His argument is that the Traditional Owners he spoke to hadn’t been consulted.
So, all Albanese has to do is fly around the Country with the Press Pack in tow talking to Traditional Owners and one half of the Coalition doesn’t have a Policy on The Voice anymore.
By the way, that interview with Chris Kenny was a trainwreck.
He wasn’t prepared and wasn’t coherent in his opposition.
Talking about ATSIC doesn’t register with most people, it was so long ago.
“Because even in concept, it’s wrong.”
It’s iniquitous.

The Centre for Disease Control has issued a medical alert about a highly contagious, potentially dangerous virus that is transmitted orally, by hand, and even electronically. This virus is called Weekly Overload Recreational Killer (WORK). If you get WORK from your boss, any of your colleagues or anyone else via any means whatsoever – DO NOT TOUCH IT!!! This virus will wipe out your private life entirely. If you should come into contact with WORK you should immediately leave the premises.
Take two good friends to the nearest liquor store and purchase one or all of these three antidotes – Really Urgent Medicine (RUM), Work Isolating Neutralizer Extract (WINE) or Bothersome Employer Elimination Rebooter (BEER). Take the antidote repeatedly until WORK has been completely eliminated from your system.
You should immediately forward this medical alert to five friends. If you do not have five friends, you have already been infected and WORK is controlling your life.

The ONLY way Dan can reduce the energy prices is to buy up all the coal generators in the Latrobe Valley, reverse the discriminatory rules changes which favour renewables, and start shovelling in the brown coal (which is still as cheap as chips because it doesn’t have an international market).
The optics of this is unacceptable (although history indicates that Teflon Dan might be able to get away with it in the (one) eye of Victorian voters). So, subsidies is his next best option. He does have the power to cap prices, but his power wanes as it goes up the supply chain, and pricing realities start to kick in. Such a move would be a short term sugar hit, followed by a serious crash.
One way or another, people are going to pay full measure for their energy, and that measure is increasing because of government policies. You can’t paper over a shortage of gas molecules, or the fine balance of properties required to run an electricity network.
Marxism 101 at Monash doesn’t prepare you for such scientific realities, only how to distract from them.

It’s just not about the trannies. It’s radical leftwing ideology. All of it!”
Of course, all of it is related or, the better woke word is “intersected”. It all derives from the same shit filled sewer. Everything in this piece you’ve posted also applies here in Oz. But remember, we had a so called right of centre government for almost nine years, I don’t need to remind anyone here that the Liberal government did nothing to combat “radical leftwing ideology” in schools, universities and so on. In fact, when it came to the rather simple notion of free speech, a fundamental right in any free society, we once had a now jobless about to be censored former PM say, when asked about free speech laws, that “It doesn’t create one job“.
You can’t fight any left-wing ideology without free speech which is why those on the left are zealous in their commitment to silencing people, and by and large they’ve been successful.
Yesterday, here in Oz, we had a prime example of this left-wing ideology and its ideologues attempting to silence people. Noel Pearson’s very deliberate use of the word “redneck” was aimed at silencing anyone who speaks up against the Voice, because anyone who does speak up will be smeared as a waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaciiiiiiiiiiiist.
In my bleak moments I fear it is all too late, but then I’m inspired by women like Jacinta Price. She used truth to speak up against the progressive zeitgeist and for speaking truth she’s been smeared. She still stands resolute. We must all be like her.
And that goes likewise for Journalism, Monty!
A new Disney Christmas show features a group of children holding up signs that spell out “WE LOVE YOU SATAN,” prompting a backlash from many, particularly in the wake of the Balenciaga scandal.
Tinta, the plant you saw was most likely Dietes grandiflora. There is also D. iridoides which is a little shorter. D. bicolour has pale golden flowers, a bit rarer but also tough and lovely in flower.
But rarest of all is D. robinsoniana, a magnificent species that has enormous white flowers opening along a stem in succession. Just done a stack of divisions of mine and replanted across the back. It’s called the Lord Howe Wedding Flower.
