You’re not female. You’re a man – sad rural man, but a man all the same.
I bet they don’t. I poisoned ten of them the other day with poorly-cooked smallgoods from my pop-up on the Waterfront.
FMD. I just chipped my tooth a biting into pistachio shell. Kez I’m sending you the bill.
Watters, Bongino, Tucker, Judge Janine etc have rightfully described bragg’s indictment as a disgrace with no legal substance and that they expect it to get short shrift. Unfortunately the Judge, Juan Merchan, from Columbia, is fanatically antithetical to Trump. If the case is not dismissed, it will be heard before a jury of ratbag NY citizens who are 87% partisan. It may be that justice will occur after conviction with appeal to the SC. But Watters raised another couple of issues. Firstly, biden has done this; secondly, appearing at the court, on regular, known in advance dates and times will make Trump a prime assassination target. In any event the court hearings will dovetail the 24 POTUS process. It’s win/win for the demorats.
HJM’s clearly got a bit of McWilliams’ Special Reserve on board this evening.
Stand by for a few Cairns Post Letters to the Editor that begin with ‘Why, oh why oh why’ or ‘As someone who’s been driving for 65 years’ or ‘Will someone rid me of this troublesome priest?’ or ‘The young people of today, and their rock and roll music…’
Peter Dutton Press Conference:

Albanese has changed the wording of the proposal 3 times, the last against the advice of the Solicitor General & the Attorney General.
I’m betting you discovered that the labels contained information like:-
– collection date;
– expiry date;
– blood type;
– quantity;
– collection label number.
I can’t remember the rest but what it does not contain is the vax status of the donor.
Which makes Tickler’s alleged demands nothing more than time wasting posturing.

Re. Lizzie – you lost on that pathetic little angle. You could not come up with the goods when confronted.

Karina Okotel, former Liberal Party Vice President, is advocating going left particularly in Victoria because that’s where the voters are. She also insists we should listen to women voters. I thought that’s what they did in the last three elections and lost them all. You just can’t cure stupid.
The Jewish community have been a blessing for Australia, particularly since WW2 when so many sought new lives here and made such great contributions. Unfortunately many of them in the USA have voted Democrat for a long time – perhaps habitually. Doesn’t look so smart now.
The above personage has just been interviewed by Chris Kenny and even he didn’t agree with her.
Kez
Sure it’s an angle. It’s angled right at your forehead but you’ve refused to address it.
Lol .How am I being hypocritical if I’ve never denied belittling stupid arguments and ridiculous people.

You’ve been obsessed with me for a while now, do you really think that you concern me?
Now bugger off and stop wasting our time.
Yes, yes. Being pushed thither and yon by weather lasers, only landing from time to time on Bible trees disguised as rocks.
Amiright?
Well, yeah.
There is no way the hospital can segregate blood donations into vaxxed and unvaxxed.
I have no doubt you badgered the shit out of hospital staff, but there is no way they complied with your half-arsed request.
They couldn’t.
And wouldn’t.
A couple of surgeons I know would have discharged you on the spot if you didn’t want to play the game.

The DA’s office has set that up nicely:
Whether or not it’s a real threat, avoiding the offence may be too hard to do for the Orange Man.
Lol: the book-keeping crime alleged by bragg and repeated 34 times in the indictment has no legal substance which is why bragg has tied it to a federal campaign offence; that is Trump paid off stormy so her blackmailing lie would not affect his election. The payment to Stormy however, according to the book-keeping entry which is the basis of the shit-show, was dated March 2017, AFTER Trump had become POTUS.
Well Trump continues to expose evil or make evil expose itself. Boy are they evil, more so than I ever thought possible. How diminished the US has become.
Liberals are too stupid to realise that the MAGA acronym works just as well for Australia but then again they are not there to make it great but woke.

But aren’t you always talking about me, yet you live in my head? Isn’t it the other way round though, Sweetheart?
Kez, the above sounds very male. Women don’t talk like that, but if you’re indeed female (at birth) I would check for high testosterone levels if I were you.
It’s always good when you can match the visuals to the sounds.

Then you get mugged by reality.
You discover that “unvaxxed transfusion source” isn’t a tick box on the hospital catering slip.
So you have to rationalise it all by pretending you “took a stand”, knowing full well the hospital couldn’t or wouldn’t comply.
I got one from Linkt, the road toll outfit. I didn’t follow the link but logged in the usual way and saw nothing there to confirm the email so I deleted it.
Soon after that I got one from Westpac which I trashed right away as I don’t bank with them.
A couple of weeks ago I even got one from My.gov so I rang them and they said it’s not them.
Rule of thumb, anything with a ‘click here’ link is a scam. If they were on the level you would be advised to log in the usual way.
I ran Angry Kez’s diatribes through Gender Guesser and the verdict is likely male.
I will say only this: HJM can do amazing things with a stubbie.
Got one of those MYGOV scam msgs .. “We’ve been auditing our records and we owe you $937.66 … ”
Didn’t bother with the rest before deleting/blocking but I’m guessing they wanted my bank details to deposit the “owed” sum ..
Neat idea tho .. not a massive or rounded amount amount just enuf may-be-legit sum to titilate the greedy into believing ..
As an OAP who’s only gummint money is my pension there’s no chance they’d owe me anything that I don’t already know about .. LOL!
My very best wishes there, calli.
Rather relieved today, after major cancer surgery in 2020 I had a CT scan last year that appeared to show more possible cancer. Another scan and surgeon appointment today show that it was a little anomaly.
Nothing to be concerned about and the surgeon doesn’t want to see me again. Not afraid of dying but our family is in a transitional time at present so thankful it appears everything is okay.

What’s this BS CBA is after confirming my details? I thought it was a phishing scam but websites seem to check out.
I’ve had emails from both CBA & NAB, not so long ago, stating they NEVER ask for, cold call, account/personal details via email or phone/text and to disregard/report any received ……
Good news Real Deal, but a stressful time.
I am free and clear now too, but I developed a habit of only going for the CT within 3-4 days of the specialist appointment.
For some weird reason I only became preoccupied with the results between the CT and the appointment so I used to keep that time as short as possible.
Completely illogical, but there it is.
Rather relieved today, after major cancer surgery in 2020 I had a CT scan last year that appeared to show more possible cancer. Another scan and surgeon appointment today show that it was a little anomaly.
That happened to me back in 2013 during a post cancer scan .. fortunately, they did exploratory surgery (quick one day in-out job) and turned out that they were secondary cancer cells but the original chemo had killed them off … never a problem since …….

On scams:
I’ve recently received a letter from a UK solicitor handling an ancient aunt’s will. For some unknown reason she left me £200.
I have to provide a solicitor-certified copy of two documents identifying me and my address and have the documents returned by the solicitor. The letter tells me that solicitors will usually do this simple task for £10.
This morning I rocked into a local solicitor’s office (for convenience) expecting the $20 special offer, only to be told that the minimum billing unit for this complex process was one (1) hour at $425.
If I don’t perform, probate will go on apparently indefinitely at £20/six minutes per follow-up (although there’s always a lucrative UK court process to rule me unresponsive) which will greatly annoy my cousins.
I ended up calling in a favour from a partner at one of the firms I do business with – which involved two taxi fares and lunch.
I deeply, deeply hate the law trade.
Real Deal, great to hear. Don’t ever give up.

That’s good Sancho. My CT was just over a week before. I showed the report to my wife, although clear it is amazing how many bits and pieces you seem to have inside as you get in your 50s and later. I suppose if you get moles and ageing bits on the outside you get them inside as well.
CT scans aren’t much fun if you’re a bit claustrophobic, though.

This stuff about the BRICS trying to make a go of it without using the Dollar and therefore the Dollar will lose its reserve status really makes me laugh.
They can likely transact in their respective currencies but challenging reserve status is another whole ball of wax. Reserve status means that people want to hold your currency.
BRIC stands for Brazil, Russia, India and China.
Which of those currencies would you want to hold in place of the greenback for safekeeping?
Let me answer for you . None.
How about about gold.
If gold was to challenge the buck you’d have to explain how trade in goods and services will be conducted in gold as easily as the dollar. Also, if gold was to challenge the dollar, why isn’t it trading at $5,000 an ounce or much more instead of basically languishing here (~US$2,000)?
I’ll answer for you. It’s not going to challenge the Dollar.
A crazy, noisy experience. They have to anaesthetise the claustrophobes.
DrF my Granddad’s maiden cousin died intestate in the UK 15 years ago. Then all that was required was my address. $10k thankyou.
Mme Zulu is very claustrophobic – she has never needed anesthetic.

Suppressed History of India’s Ancient Weapons. It is generally believed that Indians did not know about guns and gunpowder. Many experts claim this is the reason why foreigners overpowered Indians, however, that is not true. A series of evidences clearly point out that Ancient Indians used Guns, Bombs, and other advanced weapons. Watch before it gets DELETED.*
*sussietube has given him some grief over the subject matter in his clips….a story for another day.
0:00 – World’s First Rifle
1:00 – An Ancient Gun
2:09 – Solid proof in ancient texts
3:33 – Alexander Escaped? – WHY?
4:58 – Oldest Bombs in India

7:46 – A Weird Weapon
8:25 – Grenades in Jerusalem
9:30 – Making Gunpowder
10:13 – Ancient proof for Grenades
10:48 – Time Bombs are not new
12:16 – Conclusion
Hey guys, today I am going to show you some solid evidence of advanced weapons from ancient India.
Yes, what you are looking at is a carving of a gun, a rifle. If you look carefully, you can clearly see that he is loading a gun, this was the old-fashioned way of loading a gun, where you had to put gunpowder through the barrel and then stick a piper from the top. And you can see that he is doing exactly that in this carving in an ancient Indian temple. Of course, immediately your mind is filled with doubt, isn’t it? Is this ancient carving really showing a gun? Maybe it is something else, because ancient Indians could not have used guns, right? So perhaps it is just some other weapon like a spear, or even an iron rod or something.
But here is another carving in a different temple. There is a bearded man on a horse, and he is ready to pull out his sword. But look below him, what is this guy holding? He is clearly holding a gun and is pointing at the horse rider. There should be absolutely no doubt in your mind that this is a gun, because look at his eyes. He has closed his left eye and has opened his right eye, and aiming for the enemy’s heart. If he fires the bullet, this man is dead instantly, right? Yet, he is not shown wearing modern clothes or even medieval clothes, he is shown with just a loin cloth in his waist, and his hairdo resembles the ancient Indian hairstyle. But, if guns were invented by Europeans just 600 years ago, why do we see ancient Indian carvings showing guns? Are these carvings really ancient?
Look at this one, it is now in the archeology museum of Kakinada. There is no official plaque or signboard next to it, but it is said to be 1,000 years old. If guns did exist in India before 600 years, why were they not mentioned in ancient Indian texts, right?
Let me read from a text called Manusmriti, historians say this text is about 2000 years old. In chapter 7, it says:
“No one should use concealed weapons, barbed arrows, poisoned arrows, or projectiles kindled by fire. “Projectiles kindled by fire? That is a gun, right? I mean what else could it be? Why would something like this be written in a 2000-year-old text?
Another Indian text called Naisadha Charita also talks about guns. Experts confirm that it was written in 12th century. The author compares a woman’s elevated nostrils to a pair of guns. In fact, many Ancient Indian texts clearly mention Guns, it was called Naalika in Sanskrit language.

Easy. 100% gold backed crypto currency. The Woke USD is dead man walking. The world wants no part of the corrupt USA pedo, LGBT shit stain.
Got one of those MYGOV scam msgs .. “We’ve been auditing our records and we owe you $937.66
The ATO were actually sending these out and were wondering why no one was responding. After the 20th insistent message I asked my accountant to just check that I didn’t owe them anything. Yep, I did….
Terrible news, calli.
So sorry.
If it’s easy then go it. If you’re right you will become a trillionaire.
Here’s my question to you. Why the f would you need god to back crypto when gold doesn’t need to have crypto backing or fronting. Don’t pour hate on the dollar because there’s Hiden in the White House.
Paul Murray is really asinine when Annelise Nielsen is more sensible than him. He sinks the boot into Trump every chance he gets yet claims himself to be on the Trump train. What a blowhard?
Yes I know, I am contributing to his ratings by watching. Maybe I should do something else more productive like play Candy Crush.
Regarding banks and security I had a call from Westpac.
Guy wanted to talk to me about something .He wouldn’t give me any details till I identified myself to him.I wouldn’t identify myself until he told me what it was about.I then hung up.
It was a real call I found out I was overdue about ten bucks on a credit card.

Why the f would you need gold to back crypto when gold doesn’t need to…
Who wrote this? Bruce Pascoe?
I find PET scan far more alarming. You are hooked up to an intravenous needle that delivers radioactive contrast, you are strapped in, told not to move and then sealed in a room. After a while the intravenous needle retracts automatically and the scanning goes on for about forty minutes. You can’t move or do anything during the whole time.
Then to top it all off, I’m in a dressing room getting into my clothes when the Band-Aid pops and there is blood everywhere. However, the result was good – cancer free.
I have no interest in what anyone here does regarding their own personal health decisions.
Don’t worry, we won’t forget “suffer the consequences”.
Razey
One other thing. We’ve seen what happened in the crypto world with respect to outright fraud. Who are you going to trust that they would keep gold to back the crypto at all times?
Okay, China said they were coming out with gold backed e-money. You really want to trust then with your loot?
Ease of transmission. Otherwise there would be loads gold laden ships traversing the world. If that happens I’m getting into piracy on the high seas.

I suggest you do some digging. What will you say next, the architects and the builders of the Indian temples he focuses on are from amateurs? Some the temples he highlights would have a modern day building firm say straight out loud “you’ve got to be f*cking kidding me”.
Do not equate Pascoe with Praveen.
I’d trust it more than the fiat confetti being printed big time around the world. You’d have to be an idiot to hold any more fiat than a few months of living expenses.
aww, dunno JC

I don’t discount the possibility of ancient technology existing. Remember we forgot how to make cement between the end of Rome and relatively recently, and the Roman cement was better.

Really, a “weak” prediction for female sounds pretty decisive?. The implied bet is 54.5% to 45.5% which is not decisive, you ridiculous clown.
Weak female means, female prediction is weak, you drunken slob.
Why would I do that, you senseless drunken slob? Do you ever make any sense?
Big deal.
She has serious self control.
I’m not affected personally (I actually found myself dropping off to sleep), but talking with the radiographer/tech after a recent scan, they frequently get people discovering they are wildly claustrophobic, thrashing around and trying to extract themselves from the tunnel mid process.
These folk get heavy sedation.
Sure you did Tickler.
But you knew they would ignore your Grandpa Simpson rant anyway.
So really just a bit of vacuous posturing.
Yeah.
Maybe not in the way you think.
Did they have the wireless on 6PR at the nurses station?
Is that some sort of threat?
You are another one that continues to tendentiously
gaslight by deliberately take comments out of context in order to render a meaning completely different to that intended.
My comment way back then was about what principled people expect when they take a stand ‘on principle’.
I have nothing but admiration for the likes of St Thomas More who was prepared to ‘suffer the consequences’ of putting his faith first.
You can keep going, as far as I’m concerned it will only reflect on you.
I just checked the URL … yep, definitely the correct one
I think that is the MRI.
The CT is quite quick and relatively quiet. The most disconcerting thing is the sensation of having pissed yourself after the dye goes in.
If they didn’t warn you about it, you’d be calling for a mop.
Is that some sort of threat?
Are you f’cking serious?
There’s plenty here who won’t forget what you said, principally because it was so representative of a large number of shit people in Australia. There was no missing context.
No ones been “hurling abuse” at you either. Get a grip.
Anyway, “Sliante” to you hairy mob. I’m reading the closing pages of the final volume of Ian Toll’s Pacific War trilogy.
“The Americans demanded an unconditional surrender from the Japanese. The dropped two atomic bombs on Japan, and accepted a surrender on terms.”
CT scans aren’t much fun if you’re a bit claustrophobic, though.
A crazy, noisy experience. They have to anaesthetise the claustrophobes.
You’re thinking of an MRI. CT scans don’t make any noise and are quick. MRIs can last up to an hour and sound like a Dalek 21st party.

I find PET scan far more alarming.
I had the PET fairly early in my 2020 drama. I had to be there early in midwinter darkness. The click of some machine (what – Geiger counter?) checking radiation was unnerving. I had to lay in that machine for 40 minutes while disembodied semi-robotic voices barked out commands. Was a depressing setting that I don’t want to go through again.
I had an MRI last year for an unrelated foot injury. That was a five minute doddle. Cost 350 bucks though.

Indict One—And All?
Republicans lay the groundwork for 2025 indictments
Thanks Tom and it looks like most of the Cartoonists have been Trumped.
The Backlash against Indicting Trump Maybe Greater Than Anyone Thinks
COMMENT #1: Mr. Armstrong,
As I watched the media coverage of Trump’s arraignment, not guilty plea, and release of the indictment with the charges I’ve concluded as you have been arguing that we have crossed the rubicon. The 34 counts of the indictment to my legally untrained mind read as the criminalization of standard politics. What political campaign doesn’t include hiring people to look out for potentially negative press and seeking to limit the candidate’s exposure? By this indictment’s standard, pretty much every political campaign is a criminal enterprise. This is insane. I’ve generally been more libertarian-leaning in my politics and didn’t vote for Trump and even I can see this is a joke. I’ll be voting for him if we get an election in 2024. Unfortunately for the rest of us it isn’t funny and essentially seals the fate of the nation going into 2027-28 as you’ve indicated. Thanks for keeping us informed during these tumultuous times.
All the best from East Texas,
Greg
COMMENT #2: Good evening Mr. Martin,
As I’m watching this Trump shitshow on live french tv I’m wondering…
It seems that he got out to free, waiting for the trial that won’t take place before the next election.
Can he still run for presidency?
If yes, the fact that he is not in jail, does this mean that the deep state has no choice but to go to war as soon as possible ?
By the way, the French minister of defense announced today that the limit age to be on the reserve army is now 70 years old… that alone is telling a lot !
Despite all this news, the cac40 and Dax are almost at their ath. It is a mystery for I was expecting the capital to go to the US already…
I wish you and your team the best! Keep up the amazing work for this is the only light at the end of the tunnel, and it is not a fret train this time ?
Regards,
Adem
REPLY: I can’t even count all the emails coming one. Many are from those who never voted for Trump and all say that they would now vote for him in 2024. I myself must admit that I had thought Trump had gone past the “Best by Date” but instead of this hurting Trump, it seems to be boosting his support. When I look at the computer and even just the chart patterns, we can easily see that the Democrats are in a major decline and they have not even reached the Downtrend Line whereas the Republicans have broken through.
Even the Arrays showed an important Directional Change in 2023. This indictment of Trump is outrageous and it will backfire on the Democrats according to the computer – NOT my personal opinion.

Bwah ha ha ha.
“Fret train”.
Martin Armstrong (the Sage of Leavenworth) is now inserting Clouseau faux French accents into his sycophantic Dorothy Dixer questions.
Paddy and Mick were walking along a street in London. Paddy looked in one of the shop windows and saw a sign that caught his eye. The sign read “Suits £5.00 each, Shirts £2.00 each, Trousers £2.50 per pair”.
Paddy said to his pal “Mick look at the prices! We could buy a whole lot of those and when we get back to Ireland we could make a fortune. Now when we go in you stay quiet, okay? Let me do all da talking ’cause if they hear our accents, they might think we’re thicko’s from Ireland and try to screw us. I’ll put on me best English accent”.
“Roight y’are Paddy, I’ll keep me mouth shut, so I will. You do all da business!” said Mick.
They go in and Paddy said in a posh voice “Hello my good man. I’ll take 50 suits at £5.00 each, 100 shirts at £2.00 each, and 50 pairs of trousers at £2.50 each. I’ll back up me truck ready to load ’em on, so I will”.
The owner of the shop said quietly “You’re from Ireland, aren’t you?” “Well yes” said a surprised Paddy. “What gave it away?” The owner replied ,”This is a Dry-Cleaners”.
By all means, marry. If you get a good wife, you’ll become happy; if you get a bad one, you’ll become a philosopher.

VDH was on the end of yesterday’s Tucker Carlson Tonight and, as usual, nailed it.
The Democrats, he said, are no longer a political party. They’re now a radical revolutionary front.

I never remember about dividend season, I get a couple of modest ones as direct credits, always a nice little surprise.

There was comment overnight that the 9.47 p.m. linked piece on ancient Indians (from India) developed firearms and gunpowder, and artillery and the like was written in the style of Bruce Pascoe.
This is incorrect. The author of this piece makes Pascoe look like Windschuttle. Consider:
Goodness. I don’t know. Dun dun DUNNNN….
Read that last sentence again. It’s a gun because eyes.

The New Broom was fined recently for parking supposedly less than 10 metres from a corner. He was behind the building alignment. There was no way of defending the fine, it was the parking inspector’s word against his.
Also, beware of parking too close to double lines. You’ll be pinged, regardless of lack of signage.

They were speechless in the face of my fearless defence of my rights.

Ukrainian Refugees in Munich – A Real Crisis
COMMENT: Hi Martin,
I live in a commute in Munich in a nice neighborhood, I pay around 700 EUR rent for the smallest room, but we have a garden – and live with a few Ukrainians. They are very nice, seem like reasonable folks.
What I’m worried about though is the refugee system we have in place here in Bavaria. I wanted to move to another room, but I couldn’t: was kind of too expensive, 800 EUR/month. Guess who took it, another Ukrainian – of course, the state is paying it (“Arbeitsamt”). The crazy thing is that I’m having trouble with inflation and because I additionally have to pay taxes so that Ukrainians can live in the most luxurious room of the house for more than a year already. I would have no problem supporting them for a few months. But the thing is, a year has passed and they don’t even bother to search for work. They just go to German classes a few times a week. And spend most of the day talking and chilling in the kitchen. All of that while Munich is desperately searching for labour.
I also heard from sources, that they don’t really seem to be interested to work. A contact of mine offered them work, but they told him they can’t, as they are too busy learning German. Which I don’t understand, I see them all the time having fun in our kitchen. They don’t even really seem to learn German, one of them can’t say more than “Guten Tag” after one year of German classes…
Additionally, it seems like they are getting money from the state for leisure. As far as I have seen, they already went more often for traveling this past year through Europe than me. What I don’t understand, they also seem to be traveling back and forth to Ukraine to visit friends and family. I don’t get it, I thought that country was at war.
All in all, I think it’s good to help refugees. But when I have to suffer so that I can pay them to rent the best rooms in the house, while they have fun and are chilling in the kitchen, travel around Europe, even go visit their family in Ukraine while at war, and all that for more than a year, then the system doesn’t seem to be very fair to me, something doesn’t add up.
Best,
J
REPLY: I am getting emails from all over describing the same problem. First, it was the pretend Syrian Refugees. The government even paid for them to take vacations. It just seems that we have the MOST unqualified people in governments everywhere. In France, it is merely the extension of the Yellow Vests, not simply about pensions. We see turmoil in Canada, and even in Britain. These countries treat their own people like slaves. The Biden Administration only wants to raise taxes on Americans to pay for funding the entire Ukrainian government paying all salaries of government workers and their pensions! Why would Zelensky ever want to seek peace if the money stopped flowing as a consequence?
We seem to be building into what the computer has been forecasting – a major wave of Civil Unrest on a global scale in the West.”

I wish that you decided to contest it anyway. Take photos. Produce a record of infringements or a lack thereof. Argue about reasonableness. Take measurements. Challenge the judgment of the parking inspector and challenge them if they got out a tape measure. Argue it administratively before challenging it in court.
If everyone did, they couldn’t do it to us and they’d have to pull their head in regarding serious cases (like majority verdicts and retrying people multiple times) as the log jam would force priorities.
Yes Rosie, it’s quite a boon for passengers travelling around Victoria.
For a small fare, you can sit back and watch the wind turbines, solar farms and eighty metre high transmission towers whizz past as you enjoy the delights of regional Vic.
Thanks Dan.
Ha!
I just knew would have had something to say – ever since he heard about the indictment and he felt that urgent tugging in his pants.
Everywhere else (even CNN!) is saying that this stupid thing cannot fly. It is ludicrous. It could be known as Bragg’s folly.
But, when the thing is eventually thrown out Rowe will be depicting it as a miscarriage of justice.
Do the people who read the Fin Review believe the things Rowe does? It would be be a pretty poor reflection on Australian business if they did.
Re Martin Armstrong:
He was originally a coin dealer and collector, then he became interested in Ancient History because the Official History Timeline didn’t match up with the dates on coins.
Then he started having huge problems with the U.S. Justice Department.
Sound familiar?

A comment:
Just remember, the from the highest point of the Tiwi Islands, the furthest you would be able to see out to sea would be about 43 kilometers.
Being 140klms away from shore, I find it hard to believe this area played much role in their traditional practices but I’d be all for dropping these vexatious litigators off out there so they could show us.
Except for the economics.
Reduce the price, leave capacity unchanged.
You then get trainspotters with nothing better to do clogging up the network and people who have to travel to Melbourne for a transfusion or something can’t get a seat.
Rowe is right in this way:
Trump lied to his voters in 2016, said he was going to deport illegal migrants, instead he spent 4 years kissing their bottoms and he’ll do exactly the same thing again if he’s elected next year.
His views on world history and the economic history of Europe don’t match up with the evidence (coinage) and he insists that his supercomputer he coded by himself in the 1980s has ALL of the historical and current world economic & financial data (despite being quite impossible and laughable).
Good for you. My IAG dividend was smaller than the previous one. I can understand it with all the flood claims they had to pay out.
Inferiority complex from having the Yanks help them out in two world wars.
If I was allowed to take cash out of the bank I’d be lighting a cigar with a flaming $100 note for breakfast.
That trick doesn’t work so well with polymer banknotes anyway.
Sorry if it sounded like I was dividend blowharding.
Not intentional.

re seatbelts – children and smaller persons such as myself find that the seatbelt over the shoulders doesn’t turn out anything like the approved picture for small people in Rosie’s link. I end up with the seatbelt hovering around my neck and so do my teenage grandkids. Our Audi Q5 had a system which allowed you to bring the seat belt down from it’s housing on the side and that made it a lot better. The Sporty Beamer, in which we proceed to Bendigo via Albury (o/nite) today, has no such helpful thing.

Re MRI’s which put you into a tunnel with a noise like a concrete mixer going on around you. If you are only getting your legs or lower half done in them then they are bearable, as you can go in feet first and keep your head out in the open. What is horrible is head or upper body scans where you go in head first and if you are lucky your feet stick out (useful when in the UK I had a head MRI and the audio inside wasn’t working (thank you NHS) so they couldn’t talk to me; raise your foot if you need us, they said.

Yeah, they seem pretty much in the thrall of the progressive talking points and propaganda. But Britain seems to be a pretty much left-wing state now.
I don’t know how representative of actual popular opinion the cartoonists Tom posts are. They might just be the big publications and perhaps smaller (boutique, surely) ones are more circumspect. Or maybe the Brits are stuck with most of their cartoonists being like Rowe – simplistic and ill-informed despite the publication that pays them.
