Tucker Carlson (on his new Twitter channel) has called the persecution of Donald Trump as one of the most serious attacks on the electoral process yet seen. And he identifies Republicans as well as Democrats in the process.
Worth listening to.

Trump can be from NY or anywhere he can afford to own a palace.

Andrew Bragg is just trying to get the Liberal Party to focus on the real issue.
Why the hell is Dutton trying to nail Katy Gallagher to a tree for her part in supporting Ms Higgins?
It just confirms Higgins assertion that the Liberal Party supported Lehrmann and left her for dead.
No, idiot. The “real issue” is the destruction of the rule of law and presumption of innocence to provide support for a Labor political campaign slogan, about a supposed “woman problem” in the Liberal Party.
Actions which you have avidly supported in your shilling for Labor.
Don’t forget to send Labor your latest invoice for another thirty pieces of silver.
In my area, I am just as likely to round a bend and come up against Gez or Bush in their big blue Jim Deer tractor towing some unfathomable piece of agricultural kit at 25 kmh.
I don’t regard them as a nuisance.
Sancho – we, too, have our neighbours drive tractors, ATVs along the roads adjacent to agricultural land.
Our immediate neighbour, who has acreage spread at different locations, also regularly has his guys drive sizeable Angus herds along the road. His station manager always has temporary signs placed to warn motorists. The dangerous mileage in our vicinity is through the mountain roads leading down into our valley.

Those Iran war plans are shocking, really.
There’s no upper age limit in theory to ADF recruiting and if there needs to be conscription, the selectiveness on minor ailments will invariably go down.
Some idiot in the White House might execute an Iran war plan and some idiot here in the Lodge might dutifully get involved in a significant, single-theatre war.
It is a very remote possibility but a swathe of society here could get caught up in this end-of-history crap.
“3 years and 3 months ‘into’ a ‘pandemic’” and the relative for whom I have PoA, and am carer/advocate, visit every 2nd day which entails a 230k round trip is still not allowed to have me visit her in the Vic Gov Residential Aged Care Home! My relative is permitted to be taken out into the clear air and sunshine, to walk under the trees, listen to the birds and chat with normal people walking their dogs and watch children playing ONLY as long as I wear a mask and show a negative RAT.
And the local state member says that the ‘facility’ can set in place any restrictions they deem necassary.
What has a bottom at the top?
Answer: Your legs
That is because I “cannot show a valid vaccination certificate”. My relative will be permitted to have those w/o a vax cert visit her in the home when her days here on earth are coming to a close. Bit too late to make any difference to improving the quality of her life by then.

Yep. Got ’em this morning.
You must be psychic. Corn chips out there were from three weeks ago.
ps I don’t do vacuuming, that’s Hairy’s department, although now we leave it mostly to the cleaners. I do have a very easy to use dustpan and brush set both on a 3ft handle which does most pick up jobs now.
In the US they call these gadgets ‘hall monitors’.
Behind that sofa on the terrace room is one the cleaners must have missed.
Completely ridiculous. I feel very sorry for you to be treated like a criminal.
So what is Photios’s game sending out the ‘Moderate’ whores like Bragg to try to scotch the Brittany pursuit.
Why do I ask. His motivation is always the same. Prevent any threats to the associates renewable ‘investments’.
Putrid.
Our sun room has a breakfast table and chairs, plus a fridge and BBQ, but no sofa, so your psychic vibes were close but not quite there. The terrace room where the wicker sofa and chairs are located wasn’t actually used last Sunday, people stayed on the open verandah to watch the sunset over the harbour and then retreated into the living room for the warmth.
But you have hidden talents there, Sancho. Have you also tried water divining? 🙂
Mask madnes still ongoing. At the doctors today me and an elderly chap the only ones without.
Dot, Maman and Bespoke,
I had to visit my doctor this morning. The office is in a small country town. The door is locked. A receptionist comes to the door with a mask which you have to wear. The doctor wears a mask, I have to wear a mask. WTF? At least this time I wasn’t asked if my stab was up to date. They do ask if you have the sniffles or if you have been near anybody who has been crook.
It has been THREE YEARS!!! It’s over.
I understand paranoid city dwellers, but this is the country for f#cks sake.
And sorry for your poor relative too, who has to be surrounded by masked people. Removing faces from social life is like removing a part of people’s souls, imho.
The male carer/driver for the schizo mother of one of my grandsons always has to wear a mask too. She doesn’t as she lives in her own public housing flat and she doesn’t wear one in his car either.
It’s an ongoing madness.
Linda Burney would have slotted straight into the Whitlam Cabinet. They wouldn’t have missed a beat.
I would be interested to hear from cats about differing leadership ‘styles’. From what I see, Leadership/management in aged care seems to be more and more dominated by female registered nurses. In particular, those in public aged care seem more risk averse than those non-medical male managers from 20 years ago. Some of the female registered nurses even appear to be in ‘thrall’ to the Vic Premier. It has been an eye-opening 3 years. How do people come back from the crushing, utterly devastating loss of a relative, one of the 800+, who died in those early pandemic days? How do relatives reconcile such callous and abhorrent human behaviour?
Behind the Lens at Walk with Christ 2023
The Catholic Weekly’s photographer Giovanni Portelli breaks down some of his favourite shots and moments from the 2023 Walk with Christ
Walk with Christ is one of Australia’s largest annual gathering of Catholics. What’s it like to shoot such a gigantic event? Well for starters, it’s a big mission to photograph. Just like in an action film I have to prepare myself and the equipment before embarking. I can’t bring my rolling camera bag and so I have to pack lightly and prepare for a lot of running, climbing and darting around.

I never got jabbed and I waited for the World to wake up before travelling again. I have just spent 9 days in lovely Queenstown on the NZ South Island. No need for any ‘Jab Certificate. No need for any Virus Test. No need for any mask. The people that you are dealing with are barking Mad and Control Freaks. IMHO.
The whole Brittany saga feels like an ALPBC remake of A Bonfire of the Vanities set in Canberra and written by Wile E Coyote.
Good. Ramp up the NO campaign hard and fast, let it fail, and let this be the end of all Constitutional change for aboriginal recognition talk. End the special pleading by aboriginal elite members who have done well out of failing to suitably address the existing misery. Provide proper assistance where it is needed most and start to educate the children out of tribal worldviews and into employment. Stop all the romantic nonsense in schools throughout the nation about aboriginal traditions and ‘fake’ welcomes to country.
Encourage instead the writing of traditional aboriginal fables into stories that children can read just as they read the folk stories of all traditional cultures. That’s enough cultural heritage needed for a hunter-gatherer people with a necessarily unpleasant and isolated culture, and it would be something authentic to have some pride in. Reprinting Mary Durack’s wonderful children’s tale of two aboriginal children, so dramatically illustrated by Elizabeth Durack’s paintings. Retelling the story of their adventures in ‘The Way of the Whirlwind’ would do good justice to aboriginal traditions. No Bruce Pascoe-isms needed there.
Please ignore previous comments re aged care. Best to look for the sunshine which has appeared at last.
Yep. Masking after all this time is a mental illness like leftism. My local health centre and the major regional hospital near me — both of which I have had to visit in the past month — are enemy zones, policed by mask Karens.
I feel like one of the Jap soldiers who hid in the jungles of the Philippines for years after World War II. The enemy are still everywhere.
Check out Elizabeth Durack’s beautiful artworks that accompany ‘The Way of the Whirlwind’.
Totally imaginative and entirely appropriate for traditional aboriginal culture. A woman I know held this book as her favourite throughout her childhood, and there are many like her. As noted at the end of the text in this link, ‘the gatekeepers’ however have now moved in on this great work. Set it free again.
Word of Warning – They Can’t Put Trump in Prison But They Can You for Protesting
“This will be a day remembered in the history of the entire world. It is the day that the United States indicted and arrested a former president to prevent him from running in the 2024 election. Even Richard Nixon was pardoned because they fear that the civil unrest that might unfold would tear the fabric of the nation apart. Today, the Department of Justice is praying for anything to start to arrest anyone protesting for Trump and call them a domestic terrorist to set an example by striking fear into the heart of people to vote for Biden and shut the hell up. This was the day that the United States begins its decline and fall.
The Arrest of Donald Trump on charges related to the alleged mishandling of classified documents has demonstrated to the world that the United States is no longer the beacon of liberty and justice for all. Besides Biden having classified documents, taking actual bribes, and Hillary setting up a private server on which there were also classified documents so nothing she had on that would be accessible under the Freedom of Information Act because it was private – not government. This has clearly shown that the Biden Administration has weaponized the Department of Justice just like every other corrupt government including Ukraine – Zelensky criminally charge his opponent as well.
Today marks the very first time a former president has ever been arrested by the U.S. government. Trump pleaded not guilty to all charges. MSNBC Chief Legal Correspondent Ari Melber reports was so excited, it probably pissed his pants. No doubt the jubilation is static at CNN, NY Times, Washington Post, etc, etc. As they said when Rome fell, they too were still laughing.
ANY Republican politician that abandons Trump you now know their true colors. The reason why, the rumor running around is that the DOJ is cheering for they intend to indict Trump supporters on whatever scheme they can make up before the 2024 election. So you will see, Republican throwing Trump under the bus. This is a warning to anyone who thinks they really can drain the swamp. DeSantis – please stay here in Florida. You will NEVER make a difference in that town. The time for declaring the Democracy of Florida is rapidly approaching.
And to those who hate Trump, this has nothing to do with Trump. If the Republican gain power, they will retaliate with the same vengeance and lack of rule of law. We have crossed the Rubicon. As for the RINOS who will not defend the country, the constitution, or even speak up about the weaponizing of the DOJ against political opponents, we now know who you really are and you do not stand by the Constitution. We live in a full-blow authoritarian dictatorship. As even the cartoons use to sign off – That’s All folks! We now have less than 8 years left. Protesting will do nothing at this point, The Die has been Cast, as Caesar said when crossing the Rubicon. There is absolutely nothing we can do to reverse the trend.”
Perhaps the line from Bohemian Rhapsody – Nothing Really Matters Any More – Is becoming the New National Anthem

Speaking of “completely ridiculous” COVID stuff, try this on for size… this has happened twice in the past two weeks whilst I have been touring aged care facilities run by different organisations. So it must be the actual policy of some public serpent moron somewhere.
Me : Hello, I’m here to see…
Reception : Have you done a negative RAT?
Me : No, why?
Reception : We have a COVID outbreak on Ward X, which is in quarantine. No admission to the facility without a negative RAT.

Unsurprisingly, Googlery doesn’t understand women, only having Mummy as a reference point.
This is why prosecutors traditonally are very careful about selecting women on rape juries.
If they get the slightest sniff that the complainant might be playing a bit fast and loose with the truth, they turn very quickly and don’t come back.
And that is where we are.
So running the “women problem” line isn’t going to cut it this time around.
Thanks Bespoke. Will have to wait until it is available on dvd. I refuse to have any form of pay tv.

Tony Thomas pulls no punches over at Quadrant:
Voicing Non-Solutions to Aboriginal Violence
Domestic violence and dysfunction in outback communities contribute to the off-the-scale removals of Aboriginal kids from their mothers, as detailed yesterday in the first installment of this three-part series. In 2021, 6.5 per cent of Aborigines in the Northern Territory — that’s one in 15 — and 4 per cent in SA were victims of domestic assaults. In NSW and Queensland, domestic sexual assaults were reported at the rate of about one a day.
Two examples below are from some years back, but judging by intermittent news reports, communities like Nhulunbuy and Alice Springs in today’s Australia might be equivalent. (Assaults, domestic assaults and grog-fuelled violence at Nhulunbuy all roughly doubled in the past year.)
? In 2013, the Sydney Morning Herald‘s Rachel Olding and Nick Ralston checked the figures and reeported that Bourke, in north-west NSW, was more dangerous on crime rates than any country tabulated by the United Nations. Bourke’s population of 3000 was a third Aboriginal, and the assaults, break-ins and theft were on-going despite the town’s huge squad of 40 police.
? Roebourne, in north-west WA, earned the 2017 headline “Town of the damned”. Of its population of 1400, more than half were Aboriginal. WA Police Commissioner Karl O’Callaghan revealed Roebourne’s ‘staggering’ rate of sex-abuse of children, in a town likewise riddled with alcohol, drugs and violence. In a nine-month drive, police charged 36 men with more than 300 offences against 184 children. Another 100 men were suspected but not charged. Many were using their lavish welfare payments to buy drugs to lure kids for sex. The Commissioner called it a “war zone” with little kids as the victims. The scale of abuse was beyond anything his force had ever seen. Kids were more likely to be raped in Roebourne than almost anywhere else on earth.[1]
That can all be contrasted with the soft words in 2022’s Family Matters Report by a large consortium of Aboriginal groups working with Monash and UTS universities…

Twas thinking about the recent leftie journos who reference terms such as ‘partially racist’. Like being ‘partially pregnant’. Which led me to think about how the term Nazi is banded around. Is it also possible therefore to be ‘partially Nazi’. If so then surely there is a Nazi spectrum.
So where do people sit on the Nazi spectrum?
At one end, full on headbanging, goosestepping, socialist supremism with a penchant for invading their neighbours

There is a Goon Show episode called “SCRADJE” (First broadcast on March 13, 1956). which appears to be a blueprint for the Great Global Warming Hoax
“Moriarty. Gentlemen, these boot explosions are caused by a weakening in Britain’s deposits of Scradje.
Hairy Scot: Scradje? Did you say ‘Scradje’, the noo?
Moriarty: Scradje is a substance found beneath the earth’s surface. This Scradje radiates upwards, keeping level with the Gulf Stream, and keeps the pressure on the earth’s surface at an even level, thus preventing boots from exploding. Unfortunately, Britain’s Scradje deposits are rapidly losing their potency, with the results that have now become apparent. “
This is as plausible as cow’s farts in Australia are causing the Arctic ice to melt

Bateman is a poor bastard that tries too hard to fit in and he is NOT a role model. NOR DOES ANYONE WANT TO BE THE JOKER YOU CRIMINALLY DUMB IDIOTS. People understand why people snap. People sympathise with the character. You ought to do your best to avoid the same fate. If there is civil unrest, the conclusion is, well, what did you expect? Not making pointless motherhood statements of outrage.
So basically men that are not too feminine for feminist women to date and actually be attracted to. The notion that Marvel needed “diversification” vis a vis blackwashing is extremely bigoted against black and latino people. It is the epitome of stupid identity politics and apartheid.
Patrick Bateman is ultimately, quite delusional. No one is trying to become schizophrenic, paranoid and unable to free themselves of the expectations of other people.
They are rejecting that en masse, bucket-jawed, ratchet-mouthed far-left “journalists” can’t help shitting on real men who can think for themselves.
Is there any discussion about the mythical Paul Allen or Evelyn Williams and what she represents? No. Or why Bateman didn’t kill Jean? Or how the PI and him actually prolong the investigation because they both have found a friend?
No, just more shallow river horse-inspired colonic relief towards the reading audience.

Many years ago I had a persistent cough after recovering from a minor cold. But as I was travelling to Italy I sought some sort of cough suppressant to avoid the discomfort of other passengers on my flight. My regular GP was on leave & was temporarily replaced by one of these harridans. She decided I had Pertussis (Whooping Cough) – which was nonsense. But not only did she refuse to prescribe any sort of relief, but informed me that she would report my condition to the relevant authorities! She was outraged when I (also outraged!) informed her that “those in white coats were no longer regarded as infallible “and promptly departed the surgery.
Nothing official came of the interaction, & I consumed a lot of cough lollies on the plane! The cough was gone in a few days. Apparently, so was she.

Broaden your perspective beyond its narrow leftard limits Grandpa Cletus.
It helps by demonstrating conclusively that the Liars were willing to exploit a young woman for political purposes. Also that the Liars women not only supported that unscrupulous action, but joined it enthusiastically, as also did the leftards of the media, led by Their ABC, Fauxfacts, Channel X, and the Cane Toad and her vacuous husband.
Those that followed the actual case might have noticed that the only women to offer actual support, by encouraging Mizz Knickerless to report the matter to the AFP, were Liberals. However, she was content to allow herself to be exploited for employment advantage. Pity about that being a failure, but she got her big payout.

Pogria and Dot, it seems bizarre and quite arbitrary.
But, there is good news 🙂 and bad news :(. This Resident was categorised for ‘end of life care’ late last week after a rather catastrophic event. That meant the Resident was entitled to visits from unvaxxed relatives.
Well, this Resident is going out on her own terms and not as decided by medical professionals.
So 6 days later the Resident is actually ‘back on deck’ with a huge amount of support from wonderful carers and family.
We wait to see whether the Resident will still be permitted visits from the unvaxxed or whether they will be returned to persona non grata status.
We must keep the Victorian families of the 800+ Aged Care people who died, in our hearts.

We are a nation of laws, after all, apparently.
I’d put the sporty Beemer through the legs of that.
I am pretty sure the local farmers get the word when I am off somewhere in a hurry and co-ordinate the timing of putting their large Jim Deers on the road with the largest scarinator or raker-baler or gregiore-g9-330-grape-harvester or whatever in tow out on the road to piss me off.
Look, they might not be doing it deliberately, but it just seems that way.

There is a Goon Show episode called “SCRADJE” (First broadcast on March 13, 1956). which appears to be a blueprint for the Great Global Warming Hoax
I always remember these –
1. My name is Dr Bannister.
Ahhhhhhh. Didn’t I see you on the stairs?
2. Min, Min, Min. The sun’s hot.
Well, don’t touch it then.
Classic.
Further to the BRS bullshit with all the evidence about the alleged 3 murders he committed now being tainted because the evidence was obtained coercively which is called use immunity: the person giving the incriminating evidence is absolved from blame and prosecution for the evidence he gives against the charged person, in this case BRS. Obviously this immunity was given to the SAS witnesses against BRS: they were coerced by the use immunity deal. This would have corrupted any criminal prosecution; but, and this is the kicker, because that evidence was admitted to the defamation hearing, and accepted by the Judge and was fundamental to his finding against BRS, it can now be used in a consequential criminal proceeding.
Isn’t that fu.king neat. 2 things: did the bastards gunning for BRS know this before the defamation hearing but delayed release of it until afterwards so the criminal proceedings could continue with once inadmissible evidence whitewashed by the defamation proceedings? Secondly why didn’t BRS’s counsel advise him of this possibility and raise it during the defamation proceedings.
Still waiting on a new OS. He keeps taking the “Out of Service” tape off. What else can you do?

This is the Linda Burney who alleges, firstly that she was “Flora and Fauna” until the 1967 referendum, then secondly, she wasn’t counted in the census until the 1967 referendum? Not a great deal of credibility in my book!
Since The Goons have come up here is: What Time is it Eccles: a 3 minute masterpiece.
Lizzie, The Way of the Whirlwind was one of my favourite books when I was a child. So much so that when the family copy disintegrated, I bought another on Ebay, shipped from the US of all places. It is sitting on my shelf right now and I intend to read it to my granddaughters when they are old enough to appreciate it. The illustrations are magical.
Have recently listened to Kings in Grass Castles by Mary Durack, Elizabeth’s sister. A tale of dogged determination and endurance and of overcoming adversity by getting back out there and working to achieve results. Pity the school curriculum doesn’t include it. It would be a welcome antidote to the incessant moaning about dispossession and difficulty by certain elements of society today.
Fixing smiles for nothing brought me closer to God
Dr Robert Aslan, 61, has done more than $250,000 worth of volunteer dental work for some of Sydney’s most disadvantaged people since launching his St Anthony Dental practice on the saint’s feast day in June last year.
“I used to go to Mass occasionally, sometimes confession. I’d be happy to go to Mass every day now because it’s brought me closer to God and my faith has increased a million times since I started doing this.”
Dr Aslan takes referrals from the Australian Dental Health Foundation, the Rebuilding Smiles program for domestic violence survivors, the St Vincent de Paul Foundation and the Australian Dental Association’s Filling the Gap program.
Went to Canberra Hospital last week for a checkup (happy to report excellent healing) and they have re-introduced compulsory mask wearing in ‘clinical areas’ sometime in the last fortnight. The control freaks are not gone, merely in temporary retreat in some places.
Oh, and there were big posters everywhere inviting people to check ACT Health’s website for information about their wonderful new facility, formerly known as Calvary Hospital. Disgusting triumphalism on display. 🙁
Evening in Melbourne CBD IPA event to hear Mundines Voice against the Voice talk. Should be good. Only complaint so far is the plethora of vegan food. Awaits the real food with an ti ci pation.

Delivering a new northside hospital
01 June 2023
The ACT Government is committed to delivering a new hospital on the northside to meet the growing needs of our community.
With the passing of the Health Infrastructure Enabling Act 2023, public hospitals in the ACT will be managed by Canberra Health Services from 3 July 2023.
Our vision is for a person-centred health system that is accessible, accountable and sustainable. There are many benefits for public hospitals in the ACT to be managed under one operator such as easier transition and management of patients between sites and greater opportunities to strengthen and build our health workforce.
We will now move towards formally transitioning Calvary Public Hospital team members and assets to Canberra Health Services.
She needs the limelight. FMD. Hun:

Lidia’s on the phone. She wants you to give her the Parliamentary CCTV footage.
And Ed:
Dry-clean Lidia’s dress, won’t you?
There’s a good chap.
Dry-clean Lidia’s dress, won’t you?
Chortle
Lidia Thorpe was experiencing relevance deprivation with all the rape allegations so she had to make her own accusation. The whole parliament is now a joke.
The whole parliament is now a joke.
yep- a sick joke and a very expensive one
Ah, Lidia is now shielded by parliamentary privilege. No consequences for lying. How lucky can you get (sarc)?
They have learned nothing.
This doesn’t belong with Senate Presidents, PH security, party whips or any other of the assorted dickheads in That Place.
If you believe a crime has been committed go to the AFP.
Lidia Thorpe is an ugly race baiter and all round piece of human garbage. But the real concern here isn’t that this ugly race baiter and piece of human garbage is in parliament…NO, NO, NO, it’s the fact that some Australians, almost always well heeled Australians, vote for this ugly race baiter and piece of human garbage.
Time to fight back using the same weapon.
“Time to fight back using the same weapon.”
Correct, I think it’s time a Liberal, National or PHON Senator stood up and called Thorpe a cheap, ugly racist and piece of human garbage…but don’t worry, nobody will.
So much for Labor’s demands for more integrity and better standards.
Aye Cassie. And this falls squarely on that arsehole Adam Bandt.
And just remember, that only a few weeks ago Insiders on their ABC provided a platform for the ugly race baiter and piece of human garbage.
It’s called living vicariously through others’ bad behaviour.
Why would Pauline lift a finger for any of them when both sides have abused her on numerous occasions?
Swine I work with mentioned the Fish and Chip shop by Balmoral beach.
So I had to Ubereats it.
As Sartre said: Hell is other people.

Port Hedland traditional owners accuse council, Water Corp of disturbing heritage site
KAC also raised concerns about excavation works undertaken on the site by the Water Corporation, which was replacing a section of the local water main.
KAC chief executive Nicholas Green said this work, as well as the council’s actions, went ahead without consultation or permission from traditional owners, which is required under Aboriginal heritage laws.
“If you’re going to go inside and do land use, or do any disturbance to the ground, come and have a look, come and talk to us,” he said.
“Our desire is obviously to work with … land users in the town to make sure that they follow a due process to ensure that Aboriginal heritage is acknowledged and protected.”
I had a thought.
With the new WA Abo heritage laws apparently having a cutoff of roughly a 1/4 acre block size, could this be something a “voice” would have the ability to look into and make recommendations to be scrapped?
After all its a fairly arbitrary size they have picked.
It affects Aboriginal rights.
And the west mongstralian government has effectively given a hecklers veto to a specific racial group to use as they wish.
Also another detail I found out today.
The cost of a protection order depends on the turnover of the company making it.
Apparently a BHP application will run into the hundreds of thousands to lodge.
More western mongstalian brilliance in action…
https://www.abc.net.au/news/2023-06-14/wa-fishing-charter-operators-banned-from-catching-demersal-fish/102469190
A fishing charter operator says it’s “all over” for his business, after learning he and the vast majority of business like his — from Augusta to Kalbarri in Western Australia — have been forbidden from catching demersal species.
Key points:
Large majority of WA fishing charter businesses face threat of collapse after quota changes.
Only 21 operators out of 97 received permission to catch popular demersal species.
State government says cuts are needed as the sector was ‘well above’ its catch limit in previous years.
Under state government changes aimed at protecting the “at risk” species in the West Coast Bioregion, 76 out of 97 charter operators have been told they have been allocated zero “tags” to catch demersal fish, such as dhufish and snapper.
It leaves many operators just weeks to consider the future of their businesses, before the changes come into full effect in July.
The decision does not impact commercial fishing companies, who are have been invited into a voluntary licence buy-back scheme.
Apparently a BHP application will run into the hundreds of thousands to lodge.
Don’t worry, they’ve got the dosh.
Here’s my take, Senator Van did NOT sexually assault the race baiter.
Former SAS captain and Liberal MP Andrew Hastie has expressed his relief at Ben Roberts-Smith losing his defamation trial, saying the courage of former colleagues in giving evidence against the Victoria Cross winner had “rescued” the elite regiment.
It’s in the turdball times so I won’t link to it but it begs the question: who would you rather have your back: pretty boy hastie or BRS?
P.S.
I do know that “Hell is other people” has a very different meaning.
They’ve also got the ability to set up new mines anywhere on the planet.
Go tan Mummy’s skin, dickhead.
Tony Burke, doing the bidding of his union masters, is poised to smother the gig economy with the dead hand of the government’s new “workplace reforms.”
On the upside, it might make more than a few youngsters question the oft heralded (to them) virtues of socialism.

just despicable
We seem to have become ungovernable. Parliament, with a few member as exceptions is a cesspit of self-interest and narcissists. There are a few among them that I would say are actually evil.
Either stupid and evil or cunning and evil. I don’t know a solution to this. The parties are full of sociopaths exemplified in a couple of former PMs from both sides. Independents who aren’t really independents, financed by shadowy figures who do not have the good of the average person or family. The party system vomits up individuals like Gallagher or Bragg, who are the sort of people you would stick 2B pencils in your eyes to avoid. I despair of the legacy my children and potential grandchildren will inherit.
Hell is full of pervert lefties like Sartre.
If that’s not an encouragement to faith, I don’t know what is.

Very good comment RD.
Pretty difficult to find something tolerable regardless of violence levels these days.
Thanks, Cassie. The praise of the praiseworthy. ?
That was supposed to be a smiley, not a question mark. I can’t even negotiate emojis!

I’ve become less willing to tolerate gratuitous violence in movies or series the older I’ve gotten.
Same with me. I have an unopened “Hacksaw Ridge” DVD as well as “Downfall” that I just cannot watch due to the visceral scenes. A few years ago I watched Von Ryan’s Express starring Frank Sinatra. Great war movie and even when people were machine-gunned there were no bloody special effects. Ditto with the Great Escape. Perhaps there’s enough real-life violence around without seeing it at the movies.
Words fail me, they honestly do. A warrior culture in the Special Air Service Regiment? Where the fvcking Hell do you expect to find such a culture?
Thanks TE.
She’s a very stupid, vicious person. Elevated to a position of power and income unimaginable by ordinary Aussies.
She won’t crash and burn of course. She’s magic.
Yes!
Trying to excise images of the origin of the uber eats doesn’t sound like much fun either.
As an appendix to my previou comment about parliament I am reminded of that great quote by Yeats in The Second Coming
The best lack all conviction, while the worst / Are full of passionate intensity
Colon & capital D does it, I think.
Thanks, Rog
David Van had to ‘apologise unreservedly’ to Jacquie Lambie and he’s also a big supporter of the Ukraine War.
I’m not into ultra-violent movies either.
Watching the innards fly when the orcs set on each other in LOTR was enough for me. I can’t watch the first half hour of Saving Private Ryan either. For different reasons.
😀

Well its only a movie. I find the forning over every military action in Ukraine morbid. Like looky loos at a car accident.

Oh, the horror!

Nope.

Nice work, Lidia fanboi.

Go phuck yourself. Just what are you inferring? He must be guilty because of what you pithily remarked earlier? A long history of bullshit has crossed your chapped lips.
Not just gig economy operatives.
The biggest users of these services, particularly food delivery, are the 18-35’s.
Standby for the howls when the Burka surcharge goes on Uber Eats and the Uber ride home goes from $20 to $35.
All the poor women (some of them quite young) who have actually given birth to babies lined up for surgery for horrible prolapses making way for vanity projects for mentally ill men.
You couldn’t make this sh*t up.
Teh Patriarchy strikes again calli!
In all seriousness, perhaps the professor quoted toward the end of that piece can volunteer himself.
I’m reading Robin Neillands’ excellent account of the Battle of Normandy, 1944.
Paris fell, the divisions of Second Army were heading North, through flag bedecked French villages, through cheering crowds…
“The only injury I got in the war ” said Ted Smith of the Guards Armoured Division “was when an apple thrown by a French girl hit me full in the eye, somewhere outside Amiens.” (Page 402.)
I wonder what that did for HIS “warrior culture?”
Linda Birney: no vote importing Trump tactics. What a stupid, malignant bitch.
It’s internal cosmetic surgery. There is no clinical reason why a woman’s uterus should be transplanted into a man.
It won’t work. It won’t do its job. It can’t. It’s the equivalent of a little girl’s arm skin being fashioned into a “penis”. It performs no function at all.
Linda Burney: the No campaign against Da Voice is using Trump-style politics of division, and their principal method is disinformation.
I reckon when the Voice is defeated, there’ll be violence.
I dropped a rello at North Shore Private yesterday, for day surgery.
I waited in the coffee shop.
Hospital corridors, reception areas, wards, all of the inside of the hospital – masks compulsory.
Coffee shop, INSIDE the hospital – no need for masks.
Madness indeed.
We really do have the stupidest government since Whitlam’s here.
If Dutton can’t make hay out of this he’s not worth his salt.
Linda Burney: the No campaign against Da Voice is using Trump-style politics of division, and their principal method is disinformation.
Mmmyes so I bring you the incredible racisty of racist men, Warren Mundine:
Yes, Cassie. It’s a given.
Linda Burney is the product of a dysfunctional family. Her father impregnated her mother, and went his way, rejoicing, unaware of her existence – until she turned up, on his doorstep thirty years later. Her mother took one look at her, when she was born, and handed her over to her great aunt and uncle to be raised. Linda wasn’t aware that she had ten brothers and sisters, until she made contact with her mother, over twenty years later…
Given that nobody outside certain urban postcodes knows what the Voice is about it’ll have to be organised.
I trust ASIO is alert to the potential threat.
“Royal Hospital Randwick going full Mengele.

It is full Mengele, there’s no difference. When will this shit stop?

Good luck with the “ti ci pation”. ( anticipation, antipasto ?). Would have been there but Dan’s obliteration of my local level crossing and extras (all un needed) means have to walk long way in dark. Look forward to your report back?
SFLs trying to get the band back together?
If they only wanted a space big enough for their supporters they could have rented a smaller room.
Very apt.
I think a lot of Liberals are “career politicians”. That is, they are time servers looking at their pension and don’t care much whether they are in Government or opposition. In fact, apart from the better perks of the Treasury benches, they almost prefer opposition because it is an easier ride. They would rather preserve the bonhomie and good humour of the Parliamentary dining room than serve their constituents.
See, Joyce, B; Pyne, C; Guy, M; Pessutto, J.
The latter “passionate intensity” types are more likely to be found on the Liars/Greens side. Trouble is, the passion is often just directed at personal attacks (Hi, Lydia!) and, if it is related to a policy issue, they usually can’t support their passionate rhetoric with logic or reason (eg Adam Bandit).
By definition, the Yes side cannot scream “disinformation” from the No side, when the Yes side has released no “information”.
Have a squiz. It’ll gobble up 15 minutes.

Four soldiers from Australia are holed up in a room in Afghanistan, doing reconnaissance in a village. They are very different personalities with different worldviews, but they have to work together as soldiers, though the close quarters of their position make it harder to get along.
But their relative harmony is disrupted when a young Afghan boy enters the room. Startled and suspicious, the soldiers take the boy prisoner. He speaks no English, and the soldiers debate whether or not he’s a spy scouting out the position of the soldiers for the Taliban. But in the unpredictability of war, the debate takes on heightened stakes as the world falls apart around them.
4 soldiers capture a young Afghan boy. But their position is compromised… | Entrenched
No thanks.
Lidia, the human encyclopedia, has “withdrawn” her words, but only to comply with Standing Orders.
“Lidia, the human encyclopedia, has “withdrawn” her words, but only to comply with Standing Orders.”
Of course she has, she really is a piece of garbage.
At this stage does the referendum have to go ahead? Or can it be cancelled or postponed? I can’t see it succeeding, and if it gets knocked back, Albo is finished. I wonder whether he can blame the opposition for all the division and say they aren’t going ahead. Just wondering, someone can set me right.
Barnaby Joyce, urging her to go to the police, may have had something to do with the matter.
