The only people I know who are White are Albinos. Being Caucasian, a person’s skin is white/pinky/pale. And the only Black skinned people I have ever seen have come up from an underground Coal Mine or have come down from a coal fire chimney. Otherwise, every one is the same colour on the inside.
And short skirts with frilly knickers.
Tennising ladies usually have very nice legs.
Short sighted.
Pub chain sacks 700 workers to avoid Australia Day penalty rates
Hospitality giant Mantle Group has fired all of its casual employees and rehired them under a new agreement that ensures it does not have to pay them penalty rates on Australia Day.
Just 10 days after winning full penalty rates for the first time in 22 years, Mantle’s workforce of up to 700 casuals across 15 venues were handed termination notices on Monday.
Mantle immediately rehired the workers through a different entity with an agreement struck in 2019 that does not pay any weekend penalty rates.
While the agreement pays public holiday rates at 225 per cent, Mantle’s job offer includes a blanket clause saying the employee agrees to work all public holidays, without penalty rates, and to swap them for other days decided by the company.

Lidia Thorpe, 15/16th non- indigenous….
Tennis Australia ticking off the next box of wokedom:
Indian tech giant Infosys is in its fifth year of a partnership with the Australian Open, and fresh from raising its global revenue and sales forecasts – and renewing its tennis partnership until 2026 – the company has a new focus: helping the Open achieve net-zero carbon emissions by 2030.
Infosys has collaborated with Tennis Australia on a new prototype digital platform dubbed Engage, which it says will help Tennis Australia achieve a 50 per cent reduction in carbon emissions by 2030 and net-zero by 2040, in accordance with the UN Sports for Climate Change Action Framework.
The platform will enable better transparency for each Australian Open event from 2023 onwards, across Scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions, he said.
“It’s a big priority for us. We’ve been carbon-neutral as an organisation ourselves for a number of years, it’s something we’re really proud of, especially we’re a big global organisation of about 300,000 people,” Mr Groth said.
“Having been through that journey ourselves it’s something that we’re then able to help our customers and our partners go through, and we’ve created this platform for the Australian Open that will be base lining this year, and fully functioning next year. It’s about measuring the Open’s emissions, the partners’ emissions, and then helping with what actions need to be taken to be carbon-neutral by 2040.
“It’s a really important piece of work we’ve got with them.”
Along with the new climate focus, Infosys is providing players at the Open with new AI-generated videos including game and competitor insights, along with ‘Get into the Zone’, a feature that plays video montages of the player’s previous exceptional performances to put them in the winning mindset before the match.
Fans have access to new insights and experiences too through Match Centre 2.0, a feature on the AO website and mobile app that includes features such as AI commentary and rally analysis, as well as real-time predictions of match outcomes.
The multinational company, which provides business consulting, IT and outsourcing services, this month raised its annual sales forecast, and said it was bullish on large clients’ need to cut costs and automate their systems.
“Working with Infosys over the past five years has enabled us to set new benchmarks in fan engagement using digital technologies,” Australian Open chief executive Craig Tiley said.
“This partnership has enabled us to deliver new innovative digital experiences year after year for everyone associated with the tournament. We are also going deeper and wider in our journey this year with truly meaningful use of technology for climate action.
“We remain committed to making the Australian Open a global standard for a digitally-enabled sport that is inspiring, engaging, inclusive and sustainable.”
Interesting thread on casualty estimates:
That doesn’t include the local militias which are likely to be twice that.

Frank wants to to do it but he is under contract. If that is what what you meant by c**t, only you didn’t leave enough spaces for the letters in the word contract. Are you a ‘preffessor’ of English in ‘Ocker’ per chance? Or just a T.W.A.T.?

By all accounts, the UKR have lost at least 100,000 plus dead. Then a lot more injured and maimed. They cannot sustain those losses. Russia can with a larger population. Game over soon.
Regarding casualties.
It’s amazing how for almost 12 months they’ve been able to keep a lid on any footage of wounded soldiers.
These guy go home at some stage & you’d imagine someone with a phone would video something for social media.
But there’s been nothing from anyone.
what are we talking about? plastic bags over the heads of players?
i wonder does it include emissions of those who drove in for the tennis?
how about those who flew across the globe?
what about all the televisions turned on watching it?
Tennis Australia has turned into little more than a wank-fest
how about those who flew across the globe?
There should be a video wall at the venue showing the carbon footprint of those involved.
Not so much now but there was plenty at the start.
Good. Very good.

a recent letter (shown to me this month) from a government body quotes a “CPI of 3.6% as determined by the ABS”
“We remain committed to making the Australian Open a global standard for a digitally-enabled sport that is inspiring, engaging, inclusive and sustainable.”
Meanwhile, all of the spectators and sportspeople and admin people and anyone else breathes out CO2. And to get to the Australian Open, the Overseas players and others have to fly in on Aeroplanes that belch out CO2 to get to Melbourne. Let alone the local players who live around Australia and need to get to Melbourne.
When confronted with this, Tennis Elbow Australia were unavailable for any comment. I wonder why?
My father trained at Pukka in the 2/4th Field Regiment (artillery) circa 1940. As they were leaving Pukka, my father told me, there was a somewhat dejected-looking solitary man waving to the Unit as it departed. My Dad asked his fellow gunners who was that man and why was he remaining behind. Dad was told “That’s Harold Holt – he’s a politician”.

Various reports, including (surprisingly) those via the MSM have commented that some 20% of the population have decamped to Europe and elsewhere. That equates to approximately 8m people. When this conflict is eventually over it remains to be seen whether that is true but the longer it goes on, I suggest that fewer and fewer will return. They will have made ‘new lives’ in their adopted country and unless they have significant (undamaged) UKR holdings, why would they return? Especially those who have relocated overseas – the effort and cost to move back will be substantial.
Someone was asking about fetal alcohol.

NT apparently doesnt have stats on possible prevalence, WA does.
https://alcoholpregnancy.telethonkids.org.au/siteassets/media-docs—alcohol-preg-fasd/environmental-scan_alice-springs_final.pdf
FASD prevalence has been ascertained at 194 per 1000 among school-aged Aboriginal children in the Kimberley (Fitzpatrick et al., 2017), and 360 per 1000 among juveniles in detention in Western Australia (Bower et al., 2018). These rates are among the highest in the world.
…
The prevalence of FASD in the NT (and nationally) is currently unknown, as no prevalence studies have been conducted. However, the NT Government reports that anecdotally, there is an understanding that many NT children are experiencing learning difficulties, have difficulty controlling their emotions and impulses
Basically a kid with FASD is destined to end up in jail unless they have a supportive network around them to protect them from bad influences and exploiters.

As I understand it “species” is a far fuzzier concept than used to be thought.
The f*cking idiots went with re-branding the Australian Open “The Grand Slam of the Asia Pacific”.
Opening up the possibility that it could be re-located to anywhere from Seoul to Mumbai. As if any other location could be granted “Grand Slam” status or, even if it was, it would be accepted by tennis fans.
Eventually all field sports end up looking like basketball. That is what makes golf so great – and why so many sportsmen take it up after they cease the need to make a living.
Following in the footsteps of the esteemed frollickingmole, I present you this, not sure Chad Caddington makes an appearance, Daily Telegraph:
Former high-profile escort Amanda Goff has told how “dating d—heads” and being ghosted by men prompted her to ditch her media career and become a full-time sex worker.
Ms Goff, formerly known as Samantha X, has opened up about her past in a candid interview with Detective Inspector (retd) Gary Jubelin for his I Catch Killers podcast series.
In part one of their interview, the 48-year-old mother of two revealed how her disillusionment with the “tiring” dating scene eventually led to her working at a Sydney brothel.
She also told how a brutal sexual assault by a client forced her to temporarily leave the industry and how being a sex worker made her feel like she had “power” over men.
Unable to cope with her “suffocating” life, Ms Goff split from her long-term partner in her late 30s.
She had long been intrigued by the sex industry and when a man she was dating told her “you’d make a very good sex worker”, she decided to take the plunge.
“I just thought ‘f— you, that’s what I’m going to do’.
“I remember thinking this is the right time to do it.
“I just thought, really, I’m too old to be messed around by men.”
Ms Goff said she wanted to “capitalise” on her power over men.
When asked by Mr Jubelin what it was about the sex industry that “intrigued” her, the London-born Ms Goff said her fascination stemmed from her teenage years.
The daughter of a wealthy businessman, she had a privileged childhood in the posh suburb of Wimbledon.
“As a family, we used to go to the South of France for summers and I used to see sex workers on the streets.
“In the eyes of a young girl, they used to seem so glamorous — that intrigued me.”
After moving to Sydney to work as a journalist, a visit to a Kings Cross strip club for an article she was working on flicked a switch inside her.
“I went backstage at Kings Cross and these women were just so powerful and smart and sassy and strong.
“And they were older — they weren’t 19-year-olds, they were mums, they were studying, they were lawyers.”
Ms Goff said the incident left her “like a moth to a light”.
In her two books, which she said she wrote to clear up “misconceptions” about the sex industry, Ms Goff told how she initially led a double life by working at a boutique brothel in North Sydney while maintaining her real job.
“I dipped my toe in – and from day one, I was hooked,” she told the podcast.
She refers to her first client as “Mr Bean” and said the experience was life-changing.
“Some nerdy, normal bloke — you know, 30-second sex and an hour-and-a half conversation. and I go home with $100 bills,” she told Mr Jubelin.
Another client was not interested in sex and just wanted to sit on the bed with her and watch sport on the TV.
There has, however, been dark times, including her alleged sexual assault by a married customer.
“I was sexually assaulted and sex workers can get sexually assaulted, as you know,” she told the podcast.
“It wasn’t so much the assault that upset me, it was the fact that I was sacked afterwards.
“It’s the only job I’ve been sacked from and it really upset me.”
Jubelin said the client was a “a pig of a human being”.
“You were injured and you were outraged by it and quite rightly so.”
Ms Goff praised the police for their efforts in locating the man.
The attack forced her to return to her “normal life” but she just “couldn’t do it.”
“I thought, you know what, I’m going to be more powerful and more successful and I created this woman called Samantha.
“I rented a really beautiful waterside unit in the city, I tripled my prices and that journey began.”

On the issue of Ukrainian population decline, I searched a few statistics and on average, the population of Ukraine has declined by approximately 470k people per year since 1994. In 1994, the population of Ukraine was ~51m but by 2021 had fallen to ~43m. Now, the population is around 36m being 7m less than the pre-conflict number.
Unsurprisingly, as a consequence of overall population decline the live birth rate was also in serious deficit being an average of ~250k fewer births than annual deaths. This suggests that those leaving UKR consisted of a significant percentage of ‘breeding age’ females.
It appears that UKR was in trouble with serious population decline well before the conflict began.

Mantaray – I read your posts on Jo Nova & am a fan of your perception and common sense.
However, in spite of your greater acquaintance with contemporary Aboriginal folk ( although I do claim more acquaintance than the average person), I must protest the inevitability suggested by your assessment of Aboriginal IQ…viz Jacinta Price and her mum (just as an example) and many many others.
The human brain is not limited by its seeming genetic pool. It is the training and education of that amazing pool of neural connections that produces greater than the sum, in my humble opinion.
And now I will be truly controversial and bring much criticism – I think Noel Pearson, in spite of his recent extreme statement, to possess one of the greater intellects in this land. He was the son of hard working parents and was educated by the Lutherans, I recall, and is a case in point.

Well ChatGPT and I are no longer on speaking terms after I tried to convince it that their ABC didn’t have a single conservative presenter on any of its shows.
It kept saying “it is a large organisation” and “it had a variety of views.” Also that bias is “in the eye of the beholder.” I managed to get it to concede that some reviews had found it had a small l liberal bias but it said “this was not representative of the broader organisation which has a robust complaints process” **rolls eyes**
Obviously gotta long way to go ChatGPT! But, delving into my conspiratorial mode -> This is what the future holds. You won’t be debating people in the future. You’ll be debating robots who are smarter than any human who has ever lived yet who refuse to concede. And there will be nothing you can do about it.

Why? Both are centres of the corruption that he believes is threatening him.

There are quite a few Ukrainians in Australia and they (like Russians) have been coming here for decades.
This past New Years Eve I was at a private party* and one of the other guests was a Ukrainian woman. We chatted briefly and she told me she was new to Australia. I asked what she thought and she said she loved it. Most tellingly, she also said “this is my home now”. This woman was about 35, single with no kids. (She left the party later to travel to the city for NYE celebrations at a nightclub – I presume to also scout for a potential partner).
Separately, at my youngest daughters gym club, there are two young Ukrainian families consisting of 2 adults and either one or two young (4-7 y/o) children. Both families recently arrived on humanitarian visas.
I acknowledge these are insignificant numbers (total 8 persons) but this is just in my small orbit and the adults are prime age breeding/working stock with young primary school age children. That is at least 8 persons who will never return to Ukraine to live and this is being replicate all over Australia and the world.
(no, I have no idea how the men got out of Ukraine – they may have left very early in the conflict or, otherwise ‘found a way out’ in the traditional Ukrainian manner.)

From the very Pro-Ukrainian APSI Institute:
Russia, and Russians, would become the most hated people on Earth. The effect upon Russia’s economy would be disastrous. The place would be regarded like North Korea only worse. Russian expatriates would be arrested and held. Russian oligarchs and businesses would be denuded of all assets. There would be no succour or favour given to anything Russian. They’d be pariahs for a century.
And the Ukrainians would fight with rifles, then knives, then teeth. There would be no peace, only a devastation, and it would spill over into Russia proper too. The experience of the West in Afghanistan shows what asymmetrical force can do, if it’s pissed off enough.
The ASPI article reads like horseshit modified by wishful thing and whistling past the graveyard.
Santo Albo of Grayndler, during the April/May 2022 election campaign, copied the Joe Biden template from 2020. Maybe not exactly, but he and Labor used it, quite effectively. If Santo Albo wasn’t hiding from the media, he was running away from the media when they had the audacity to ask a curly question during the election campaign. Since the election last May, he’s been lucky to have a grovelling MSM who’ve treated him with kid gloves.
However, that’s changed and there’s been a turning point over the last week, firstly with the Ben Forham train wreck interview on 2GB and then with the mayhem and all round havoc in Alice. Whilst Santo Albo tried his shtick of hiding/running, it hasn’t worked and he’s been forced to deal with the situation. Leading a pack of other blind mice, he made the pilgrimage to Alice yesterday to basically concede that the alcohol ban was a good thing and even he, the great progressive, is now conceding that there must be a total alcohol ban. In other words, after two decades, he’s been forced to concede that Howard’s intervention and the Coalition’s policies were right, not that you’d ever hear him say that.

what’s the pop of the annexed territories? Also, the majority of the pop outside of Kiev is in east and south. If more of them are occupied, it would be even worse.
Indeed. Some of the data is old and not entirely reliable. The numbers get even more difficult to pin down the closer to you go to the Dnieper river because this includes portions of neighbouring oblasts. But a fair, if conservative, assessment is probably about 10-11 million (inc Crimea).
The other issue for Ukraine is the natural wealth of the area. Good land, mineral rich……which means jobs and broader prosperity for the country. So, not just the loss of people, but the loss of national ‘assets’. Remember that all of Ukraine could easily fit inside NSW (Ukraine 603k sq/km vs NSW 801k sq/km).
Remember this one? 😀
All on your dollar…
I don’t think they’ve completed a census in more than 2 decades.
Unfortunately I don’t have as access to a First Nations library as there are no caves nearby. Perhaps somebody can check their First Nations history references.
Are there any known instances of a larger tribe entering land and settling there with a few occasional dust ups with the smaller mob who were there first? Or was it all fields of sunflowers and skies filled with rainbows and flying unicorns?
Hmmm, sounds like another Venn diagram is required. They’re pretty useful.
Meanwhile, Lidia Thorpe tackles the issues that really, really matter…….

Accurate published data is scarce. The other aspect I didn’t mention is whether to include the areas that take in Mykolav and further west to Odesa. Add them and we’re talking another 5-6 million people +/-.
Worst case would probably see the Ukrainian population down to, say, 20 million in a land area of 325-375k sq/km with vast tracts of arable land gone along with minerals, ports etc. along with a shattered economy. Try to stabilise your population and encourage reproduction in those circumstances. Good luck.

14 of the 16 beds in the towns intensive care unit were filled with Aboriginal women who had been bashed.
In Feraldton a conservative estimate would be 80% of police calls are to deal with Aboriginals.
CCTV of offenders appears to show the 15% or so of the population punching well above their weight in the crime/nuisance stakes.
And for any asshole lefty who will wail about “overpolicing” the hospital admissions for injuries and illness are similar.
And the biggest victims of the criminal element are fellow Aboriginals.
Thorpe doesn’t give a toss about bashed up Aboriginal women. Why would she? She’ll never be like them and she knows it.
She will use them when she’s good and ready and not a moment sooner. Until then they can rot away on settlements. The money earmarked for them will be whisked away as usual to other destinations like bank accounts.
Nothing changes.

Apparently pence was asked by the DOJ to search his home for secret docs to show Trump’s possession of secret docs was unique. But Pence had docs so that fell flat. The secret doc comparisons are remarkable:
Trump = POTUS: can declassify and have secret docs. His secret docs were momentos – signed napkins from rocket man and the like. Cooperated with DOJ. Raided before mid terms. No culpability
Pence: VP, no right to have secret docs but his docs in locked container but still guilty of felony under strict liability provisions.
Biden: senator and VP; no right to docs. Docs known but not revealed before mid terms. All docs unlocked and many in penn state uni in Chinese study centre financed by chunk money. Unsecured at home; accessible by druggie son with proven connections to Ukraine and chunks. Docs dealing with Ukraine, Russia and the chunks consistent with biden family business connections.

“For 120 years, decisions have been made … on behalf of Indigenous Australians. What we need to do is to make decisions with Indigenous Australians and listen to them.”

“The voice is the vehicle, by listening to people to get better practical outcomes, to close the gap, which is there in health, in education, in housing, in life expectancy, in justice outcomes,” Mr Albanese said.
“The truth is that in 2023, we still have extraordinarily large gaps in all of those key indicators.”

Actually, you’re kind of on the right track. The long-term problem for any future Ukrainian government is ‘how’ do they protect what’s left. A shattered economy, severe population decline, loss of industry, arable land etc.
How do you encourage what’s left of your population to stay – in particular the best and brightest and of course the young ‘breeding age’ men and women. Only with income – but how is that achieved with massive debt from the World Bank (+ USA/EU funds) and without annoying the neighbours and becoming a tax haven for investors.
Import people? Sure, but you’ll need millions of them and over time this will eventually dilute the ‘native’ Ukrainian DNA – and some of your existing people will find it very unsettling to discover their new neighbours are Sudanese…… which equals social unrest. (Ukraine is a very ‘white’ country – very few darker skinned.)
It’s all very well for someone to suggest that Ukraine could become the world’s next ‘melting pot’ of races but this would be deeply troubling to Ukrainians. It is not difficult to see why Zelensky sees the conflict with Russia as existential for Ukraine – and in some respects he’s correct. I wonder, with the benefit of hindsight, whether he quietly regrets not taking a different, but still independent, trajectory after 2014. Maybe the deal laid out by Russia prior to Russian troops crossing the border. Or allowing Boris to strong arm him to reject the peace deal offered in April.
In any case the dream of EU/USA supplied tanks and artillery rolling across Ukrainian fields driving Russia back to its borders and then reclaiming the Crimea in the greatest tank assault since WW2 supported by vast numbers of troops triumphantly marching into Sevastopol…… are just that. A dream.

“If you think you’re going to be served well by craven political ideologues who are primarily selected to be physicians on the basis of their political purity, you’ve got a-bloody-nother thing coming.”
It was the stir of the town when an 80-year-old man married a 20-year-old girl. After a year she went into the hospital to give birth. The nurse came out to congratulate the fellow. “This is amazing. How do you do it at your age?” He answered “You’ve got to keep that old motor running”. The following year she gave birth again. The same nurse said “You really are amazing. How do you do it?” He again said “You’ve got to keep the old motor running”. The same thing happened the next year. The nurse said “You must be quite a man”. He responded “You’ve got to keep that old motor running”. The nurse then said “Well, you had better change the oil, this one’s black”.

We’re all in the same boat. It’s called representative democracy.

I mentioned a while back a very senior WA public servant telling the dinner party that Aborigines were Flora and Fauna until 1967. I called bullshit and said where that lie came from.
About 40 minutes later she came and said she had immediately ducked out and googled it and I (and the Cats who made me so well informed) were RIGHT!
Apparently they were told this by a local indigenous consultant PAID BY THE WA GOVT TO INFORM THESE SENIOR PUBES about aboriginal issues.

On the first night of their honeymoon, the new bride tells her husband “I have a confession to make. I’m not a virgin. I’ve been with one other guy”.
“Oh yeah? Who was the guy?” “Tiger Woods, the golfer”.
“Well, he’s rich, famous and handsome. I can understand that”.
The couple then makes passionate love. When they finish, the husband gets up and walks to the telephone.
“What are you doing?” asks the wife. “I’m hungry. I’m calling room service”. “Tiger wouldn’t do that”. “Oh yeah? What would Tiger do?” “He’d come back to bed and do it a second time”.
The husband drops the phone and makes love to his wife a second time. When they finish, he goes back to the phone.
“What are you doing now?” she asks. “I’m still hungry, so I’m going to ring room service for some food”. “Tiger wouldn’t do that”. “Oh yeah? What would Tiger do?” “He’d come back to bed and do it one more time”.
The husband puts the phone down and heads back to bed.
Exhausted after the third lovemaking session, he shuffles back to the phone and starts to dial.
The wife asks “Are you calling room service?” “No! I’m calling Tiger Woods to find out what’s par for this hole!”…………………………

A snapshot of how this country should and should not be:
Yesterday, a family member on the far north coast opined that one of the differences he sees, after leaving Sydney, is no foreign faces. He was very pleased with that, knowing where he lived.

I don’t see foreign faces either.
If Canberra was moved to Alice Springs it might make a difference.

My first attempt at Gozleme tonight. Very popular market food in the eastern states, apparently. I’d never heard of it, nor had a ‘taste’ to guide me, other than the recipe.
“Yum, Granny!” was the popular verdict. Minimal leftovers disappeared with, “I’m taking this!”
I love cooking for these wonderful women of the future.

From The Speccie’s (Oz edition) evening mailout:
‘Albanese has been guilted into visiting Alice Springs following a wave of violence sparked, according to the police, by Labor’s bright idea to ignore the voices of Indigenous women and allow the purchase of alcohol. The effect was almost immediate. Aside from the nightmare Albanese has caused, his quick little private jet hop to Alice Springs has proved something rather interesting – it turns out you don’t need a racist clause added to the Constitution to listen to the voices of Indigenous Australians. All you need is a bit of jet fuel and some media pressure.’
