Great commentary Lizzie. We were mostly imprssed with the food on Viking recently on our Med cruise. The buffet was 3.5 to 4 stars, we thought, and their two speciality restaurants 4.5. The everyday sit-down restaurant though had a few failings – hot plates being one of them. Not hot enough that is.

They haven’t realized yet that the whole thing is a scam entirely, and that every component part is a scam – like renewables being cheapest (they aren’t), EV’s being green (they’re worse than ICE cars), or biofuels being carbon neutral (they’re as bad or worse than petrol).
Still I suppose some awareness is better than none. It’ll be interesting to see what the ESG companies do, since they can’t now ever achieve net-zero without committing corporate suicide. Hopefully they’ll give it away and go back to being actual businesses rather than woke cathedrals.

The world is on fire and the southern border is purposely wide open and the Biden regime’s answer is to disarm their citizens.
Worst administration is U.S. history. Traitors. All of them.
I thank thee for the excellent question. I don’t know.
Maybe it is part of training the electorate, to vote correctly.
I said on the day after the horrendous attack on Israel, that things do not add up.
At least 2,000 Hamas individuals crossed the border into Israel.
Hamas said they fired 5,000 missiles into Israel, the IDF said was only 2,000.
This was no small undertaking, yet it was totally missed by the intelligence networks of Israel and Uncle Sam.
Additionally, Egypt, said early on, that they warned Israel of “something big”.
Yet, no action was taken.
I make no accusations here, but Bibi, who was under some pressure three weeks ago, is no longer under as much pressure, is he?
On the day of the horror attack, the US said they would send a Carrier Battle Group to assist Israel. (On Sat).
This force arrived on the following Tues.
So, in three days, all maintenance on the ships was completed, all ammunition, fuel and food was loaded AND all the personnel were called from leave, THEN, they sailed to Israel, ALL IN THREE DAYS!
Are we all good with that?
The barking puppy that is the UK, has also stated that they will send ships and reconnaisance aircraft, to “assist Israel” in its fight against Hamas.
Does Israel really need the US and the UK, to defeat Hamas? Obviously not.
Should the aim however, be war with Iran, well, ……..
Anyone, with an IQ higher than a brick, can see that this action would be a complete disaster. (Forget Iran, Syria, Afghanistan and Ukraine, “this time it will work”).
Regrettably, that qualification is a higher standard than Sullivan, Blinken, Bolton, Kirby, Lloyd Austin III and Sunak, can achieve.

Europe “Shaken” By “Islamist Terrorist Attack” In Brussels; Shooter Still At Large
Update (1730ET): French President Emmanuel Macron said on Monday that Europe had been “shaken” by a “terrorist attack” in Brussels, after two Swedes were killed in a shooting.
“A few minutes ago, Brussels was hit again by an Islamist terrorist attack which apparently, as I speak to you, took the lives of at least two other Europeans, two Swedes,” Macron said during a visit to Tirana, according to AFP.
Perhaps most ironically,
given the comments from various world leaders about this “terrorist” attack by a muslim man, who recorded a video of himself explaining this was to “avenge the Muslims that have died for their religion”,
the Belgian prosecuor has issues a statement that there is ‘no immediate link to Israel-Hamas’.

Last night on Sky Paul Kelly offered a very good summation of Albo’s Voice disaster.
Kelly said that Albanese truly thought he was the progressive messiah and he truly thought Australians wanted him to implement a “progressive agenda”…..Voice, Republic and so on. It shows what a fool Albanese is, elected on 32%(?) of the vote, a vote that largely consisted of an electoral backlash to a tired Liberal government and an appalling Billy Bunter Scott Morrison. Then Albanese was gifted an extended honeymoon by a compliant partisan media (something never afforded Liberals). He has had a very easy run, now the wheels are falling off and he can’t cope, in fact I suspect he’s angry…which is good, because Australians don’t like nasty angry politicians.
You couldn’t make that up.
Not quite as good as Cardinal Sin, though.
I was pointing out that, prior to the vote, the polling questions did not offer a choice to retain the current system. So the question of the place of the Queen/monarchy was irrelevant regarding the model.
At the time I attended a council discussion in which people were grouped into 10-12 to discuss a model for a republic. Finally, a vote of each table was made. I made mine an abstention, which the table’s “leader” did not want to count. I said that even parliament counts abstentions.
And then it’s fortunes have turned. Popular monarchs do that. I see that occurring when William ascends the throne. And even now, while the King has some nutty ideas, I think overall he’s starting to endear himself to the people, just like that weird, old uncle that everyone has/had.
And on that repast reference…like bad referendum questions, the hoi polloi can sus out dodgy food establishments. ?
Is it fair to say he’s an executive then? Not just a drone.
That’s what the Australian calls him anyway.
Might have been better for the Bank’s PR if he’d kept his disgusting bias to himself?

National Suicide In Plain View: Open Border And Sanctuary Policies Continue Unabated
Make no mistake: Recent comments by Pres. Joe Biden and Gov. JB Pritzker seemingly calling for tighter border security are a ruse. No policy change has tightened the border.
Nobody should expect any change from Biden’s true policy, stated above, or that the State of Illinois or City of Chicago will cross him on that policy.
Illegal aliens just since 2021 total more than individual populations of 38 states.
Illegal border crossings set another record in September and now top 8 million since Biden took office.
Double talk is all we are getting from those in power. They care not that an overwhelming number of Americans – 66% – want border enforcement. That includes 61% of Democrats who say they want stronger law enforcement at the border, and two-thirds of Latino voters (65%).
There’s an “acute and immediate need” for a border wall in the Rio Grande Valley, said Biden’s Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas, Oct. 4. Yet Biden said “No” when asked the next day if a border wall was effective in halting illegal immigration, and the supposed construction turned out to be for just 20 miles of wall.
Pritzker claimed success from his request last month for federal help when the Department of Homeland Security said it will speed up the processing of work authorizations for asylum seekers. But the federal government, also with Pritzker’s support, will increase the maximum validity period for work permits to five years for certain noncitizens, including those admitted as refugees or granted asylum, those who have been granted withholding of removal, and applicants for asylum.
DHS will also extend Temporary Protected Status for 18 months to Venezuelan migrants who were living in the U.S. on or before July 31. Illinois and Chicago leaders “rejoiced at the news,” as the Chicago Tribune reported.
In other words, what is given with one hand is taken away with the other.
To Pritzker, border security is just a bargaining chip to get a comprehensive immigration reform, his version of which would no doubt mean normalization and voting rights for those here.
You disgusting shit. Are you still on the Commonwealth payroll? You glow harder than a radioactive float at the Gay Mardi Gras.

Local town of St.Arnaud Vic in the news because the results posted by the AEC completely transposed the result and made it appear there was an overwhelming Yes vote. Another country booth had exactly the same thing happen.

Jacinta nailed the AEC on poll night and now we see the reasons emerging.
LOL. No-one does rage like a Marxist homosexual.”
What? Why hasn’t Tommy Boy Ballard, unfunny comedian, flown to Gaza to help his Nazi Pallie friends yet? Tommy Boy is an outspoken critic of Israel.
I guess the problem is, if he does fly to Gaza, and then the Nazi Pallies discover Tommy Boy’s sexual preferences, they’ll be searching for a tall building to chuck him off, but the problem there is that Israel has been blowing up those buildings over the last few days, and so Tommy will be saved by those very Jews he doesn’t like.

When do they start counting the prepoll votes? Every seat I’ve looked at on the AEC website shows 0 for prepolls so far.
Well Rabz, as we know, quite a lot of commenters here have a piece, or more than one piece, of paper attesting to their ejumacashon. What’s more, the vast majority got those bits of paper before they were handed out as rewards for showing up and paying the fees. The recipients actually had to submit work and pass exams.
But, it is most enjoyable to watch those in this vast hole digging deeper. Their brilliant strategy of trying to win people over by insulting them (see: Clinton, Hillary) is the gift that keeps on giving.
In passing, since Aborigines in rural and remote areas have very low education levels …
Sshhh – don’t want to interrupt the enemy etc. 🙂
Re Crosby Textor.
Their emotive response to the criticism puts the nail in the coffin for me.
starting second deployment in new front to escalate third world war
Plenty of choice now. Just like the good old days.
They started processing them yesterday.
They way it worked when I did it, all they would be doing is matching the names & addresses on the envelopes with the the rolls and marking off that they have voted. This process includes all the absentee & declaration votes which are also in envelopes.
These need to be physically sent to the right office for processing that may take a few days (eg I am in Fisher, if I had voted in say, Bass, my envelope will go to the Bass DRO, added to any others for Fisher, and sent back to Fisher to be checked and counted. – makes the auditing a lot easier and more transparent).
Once all the valid prepolls and absentee envelopes are in and processed they are opened face down into a box, and when a box is full they will start counting it, so you will get numbers in a rush.
She’s f***ing boat cake!
It’s the implication Dot, the implication…
https://youtu.be/PtL0HjZF50A?si=HA1UPXMaZY7YzghW
Thanks for your detailed response, Diogenes. A good reason to vote on the day if you’re able as the prepoll votes will lean even more heavily No because of a lot of older people – that would have meant the result on the night would have looked even more catastrophic for the Yesers.
Oz says:
The US military has selected roughly 2,000 troops to prepare for a potential deployment to support Israel, US defence officials said.
The troops are tasked with missions like advising and medical support, the officials said, and they are from across the US armed services. They aren’t intended to serve in a combat role, the officials said. No infantry have been put on prepare-to-deploy order.

I’m glad you explained it so well as I was just about to embarrass myself by stating that AEC is dragging their feet so as not to add to Labor’s woes.
Pre-poll at 0? Well obviously it’s a lot harder to take out the pre-printed ballots than it is to put them in.
Counting all of them would give the game away.
Riddle me this, thrill seekers. Albo’s “Voice” has been overwhelmingly rejected – is he seriously considering “Truth telling” and a treaty?
Those troops are on ice, offshore?
This may have something to do with it:
Only 2% Of Americans Have Received New COVID Vaccine: CDC (17 Oct)
The lack of candor or openness, the repression of anyone not adhering to the government line, the nasty fascism around mandates, and the widespread concern over side effects may well have substantially reduce the market for all vaccines, not just Covid ones. When you lose trust it’s hard to get it back.
Not helped by how utterly politicized the medical industry is so clear to everyone, especially against righties.
The health outcomes of this fiasco are going to resonate for many, many years.
Under review in light of the result.
Albo is in damage control. Serious damage. So he will muster support from anywhere and everywhere in the leftist spectrum trying to ride this out.
It could be just posturing and pandering, keeping the parasites in his corner- for now.
What else is there, other than God?
Mother Nature, the Universe and Science. And “Cherryripes”.
Free abortions and transgender surgeries for Gazans? Now that Israel has bombed the only Planned Parenthood clinic in the territory there must be an urgent desperate need.
BTW – can those who have been predicting for months and even years in some cases, either a civil war or the splitting up of the US give us an update?
I must agree with JC about how people underestimate the ability of the US to come back from disaster. Also, as I keep saying, applying our standards and model of government to the US always leads to the wrong conclusions.
And, FFS, bleating about political and judicial corruption ignores that they have been baked in for at least a couple of centuries. It’s a feature, not a bug. As usual, alarmists never read history.
But, anyway – enthusiasts for civil war and division – what say you?
I think their angle is that the mentioned it during the election as a promise. In which case the prick was lying from the get go saying the referendum was only for the voice.
The Ford CBG had been operating off Italy when the balloon went up.
More than just Albo. The ALP faceless chaps will be looking at the industrial rusted-on seats and panicking. Like Hunter where I’m am. Over 71% no, yet the seat has been Labor for 113 years.
They got a fright when the PHON tradie went close to knocking off Joel in the election before last. This referendum makes it absolutely clear that the progressive-left is in charge of the Labor Party and many previous industrial Labor voters may be looking for another home.
Apparently Albanese won’t address the matter during the “week of mourning.”
If he walks away from his promise he’s lost the activists.
If he sticks to it he’s lost the next election.
Well played, bubble boy!

Its pretty clear the US, and the world, is becoming more polarised, and that the differences are irreconcilable. Its true that the west did have an enormous amount of ‘social capital’ banked, but this is being rapidly depleted – at some point, Adam Smith’s nation is ‘ruined’ … when not if is the question.
I was wondering if Hamas attacked now was because of this:
Finally, Some Jewish Space Lasers? (16 Oct)
Rafael, whose fricken space laser it is, hopes to speed up rollout of the weapon system, maybe as early as the first half of 2024. That would make Hamas’s rockets a lot less dangerous, although there are issues with weather and line of sight. But if it took pressure off Iron Dome it would be worth its weight in etrogs.
Setting aside this disgraceful racism from our PM…he must mean the Teal electorates.
Johanna, I don’t believe US will descend into a civil war, Americans are too pragmatic for that. What is happening though is a realignment between the population. Republicans and conservatives are leaving blue states like NY, California and Illinois and moving to red states like Texas, Florida and Tennessee. This means that blue states become more blue and the red states more red.
The realignment will result in weakened federalism with states asserting their rights at the cost of the federal laws. It’s also useful that each state controls its own National Guard to defend their interests. It’s quite a good system to calm things down.

Given the wording used in that claim the supposed 2000 US support troops could be sitting in Delaware loading boxes on airplanes. Or in Germany moving boxes from one airplane to another. Or in Cyprus preparing medical facilities.
Chances of them being on the ground in Israel are pretty much nil if for no other reason than because there is no need for them there.
The only US troops offshore of Israel at the moment are about 2/3rds of the 26th Marine Expeditionary Unit. That would likely be 2 companies of infantry, a SEAL platoon, Marine Recon, and an aviation squadron.

The last few paragraphs follow.
Sky should’ve put the word “Australians” in quotes.
At least 45 Australians remain stranded in Gaza (17 Oct)
Just who are these “Australians”? Why are they in Gaza? What is their view on the war crimes committed by Hamas, their governmental authority? Why are they not protesting?
Ok I know the answer to the last question. It would be fatal. But if they’re stupid enough to be in Gaza then it’s a legitimate question why we should be trying to get them out. They’re where they wanted to be, since if they didn’t want to be there they’d not’ve been there.
Her most famous moment on CGTN was ridiculing President Trump in 2018.
Last night’s Sky tease for tonight’s interview shows her going on and on.. and on about returning home and sating her appetite for all manner of delicious foods.
Somewhat weird as a promo.
Vanuatu is looking good.
A lesson straight out of the Ray Martin school of cajolery.
Secretary Blinken Tells Joe Biden He’s Going to Israel on Wednesday

I hope all realise that if *everyone* self identified as aboriginal today, all this BS would stop tomorrow?
Yes and yes.
While it’s always wise to remember that there is little new in man’s catalogue of lamentations, it could be argued you’re conflating war with the absolute atomisation of values.
The combatants of Bull Run and Verdun believed in the same things about God, country, family, civil society, sex, education and virtually everything else.
Yes and yes Johanna. A new religion has arisen which brooks no opposition. As I said this is like the 7thC all over again.
In 1860 there were two sides who were basically Christian. States rights and slavery were the issues, and the states rights & slavery side fired the first shot. They then lost.
In 1914 the web of treaties were such that when one treaty was called upon there was a cascade of requirements that led to a complete fracture of Europe. Which had ethnic as well as treaty causes, but the treaties also aligned with ethnicity to a certain extent.
Nations had a choice, to either abrogate the treaties negotiated so carefully, or to uphold them. The tragedy is that honour required the latter, and they all did. To prevent war they had to act dishonourably…
Now is different since the green-progressive religion is not honourable and is a visceral enemy of the the residual Judeo-Christian ethos forming the foundation of Western society. It is as potentially inflammable as Russia in 1917, for very similar and analogous reasons.
My Sister sister just rang for the sole purpose of telling me a joke:
Via Robin Williams:
I think their angle is that the mentioned it during the election as a promise. In which case the prick was lying from the get go saying the referendum was only for the voice.
The Real Australian VOICE has spoken and the answer is a Big Fat 60% NO.
Bring on the next Feral Election in 2025. It can’t come soon enough.
Do you mean that the US is more polarised now than it was in the Civil War? …. Is the world more polarised than it was in 1915? …. Less reading of blogs and more reading of history would raise the collective IQ considerably.
1) I think the world is more polarised now than it was in my lifetime (born in the 60s) which is a more relevant metric than over a century ago
2) Unlike the great majority of the population, I have been reading history for over 50 years, and my commentary reflects that.
3) IQ = your own personal CPU processing power, it can be destroyed, but not raised, you might not like my interpretations of history, but you cannot say they are un-informed. This blog is not a waste of time, it is a a priceless opportunity to test my ideas against those of others! Long may it be so!
I haven’t watched Insiders forever, but Sunday morning was a disgrace. Dusky reporterette – who I have since found is Aboriginal, but looked more sub-continental – delivered the sad face “week of mourning” stuff at the end, without any thought that she was mourning the democratic process.
A meat ball is worth 1 mile.
Unlocking the climate benefits of dietary substitutions: The impact of land use policy (16 Oct)
I went to Coles this morning and bought 1.8 kg of bird mince. That was a distance of about 7 meatballs round trip, and I now have 288 km worth of food for currawongs, magpies and butcherbirds.
No.
He is not.
This is just lip service while he moonwalks away from it.
The pardee won’t let him go near it even if he wants to.
This will only be mentioned if he is directly asked and it will remain “under review” for about, oh, say, eternity.
Someone should give Simon Benson a hankie.
His tearful diatribe in the Oz today is really very sad, but a nice summation of all the “Yes, But..” arguments.
My favourite bit (it was a near-run thing)… I can admire a good piece of projection when I see it :-
Oh, and I’m not sure there are many bonus points still on offer for the seemingly-mandatory Trump reference, but Simon, here, have an elephant stamp.
Pogria:
Next door has a couple of dogs – every time someone pulls up within earshot, they go nuts. I’ve put up with it for 8 years now but it gets wearing.
The dogs think they’re frightening away intruders because eventually the mailman, the delivery driver or the people walking past, leave. Then they lie in wait for the next intruder.
I thought Dubbo was an aboriginal name, it’s new proposed name sounds more Anglo than Dubbo does.
C.L., what do you expect from that vacuous blonde Annelise Nielsen?
Just who are these “Australians”? Why are they in Gaza?
I’m guessin’ life on the Oz ‘rorters” pension would put you at or close to the top of the Gaza income tree ……….
Oh, the schadenfreude…it hurts…
I’ve just seen the front page of Brisbane’s Courier-Mail:
‘Talk is Cheap, Give Us Money!’
QLD aboriginal groups are demanding that corporates who tipped millions of $ into the Voice campaign now fund their programs.
Chortle!
I love how they’re now twisting it saying it wasn’t much of a defeat, the vote was close, blah blah.
Only 6 of the previous 44 referenda got a lower yes vote.

“Yes” is now ahead in Franklin by only 58 votes. Postals are running at 59-41 for “No”.

I prefer this one with ‘Simple Simon’ being the paper tiger –

I am fed up with this stupid, stupid woman being referred to as Australian. She is nothing of the sort – she is a chinese communist with an Australian passport.
There is a difference, you insufferable meeja morons.
Taking a broader view, the government has no business telling the people what the truth is – in fact it the one to be watched, checked and, according to demerit, punished.
In this particular instance the idea that a government appointed panel of ‘experts’ on matters will tell us which interpretations of evidence are true and which are not. In fact I probably overstate the probative value of what they call evidence. Stories my nanna told me: because Aborigines kept no records to corroborate them they are assumed corroborated by default. The most fantastical nonsensical stuff too.
I believe Bolta’s longstanding challenge hast still not been met, but Stolen Generations is a ‘truth’.
Truth telling does not mean telling the truth, but you’re betters telling you what the truth is from now on and any contradiction is not only an aspersion against truth but an undermining of the organs that adjudicate truth – against governments and activists.
In the case where one person speaks against a commonly held truth it is free speech.
Government does not like to be contradicted and are not reluctant to using law to retain the illusion of majeste.
If anyone needs reminding about why councils will roll over for even the most tenuous native title bullshit.
https://www.ag.gov.au/legal-system/legal-assistance-services/commonwealth-legal-financial-assistance/native-title-respondent-funding-scheme
The Australian Government has committed to abolish funding for the Native Title Respondents Funding Scheme and the Native Title Officer Scheme from 2022-23. This is consistent with election commitment costings released on 19 May 2021.
Funding will no longer be available for applications made under the schemes.
Yikes!

Salvatore, Iron Publican
(Not addressed to Salvatore – my thinking is addressed to everyone who thinks we can keep bargaining with terrorists.)
If Israel had the policy of “A hostage taken is believed to be dead or existing in a state of brutalisation that death is a mercy.” then the decision is quite easy.
I would press the button, or if being a hostage, I would hope there is someone with the moral courage and clarity to do it for me.
I would refuse to have ten soldiers die in an effort to free me. That’s reality, and you cannot defy reality.
There. I said it.
Just read a very funny story about a pair of Aged j’ismists getting involved in a “workplace contretemps”, via Sophie Elsworth.
Osman Faruqi and a Fauxboriginal. Much screeching of obscenities, apparently.
By the aboriginal chap, who was subsequently put on leave during the Voice campaign, the coverage of which was to be his main assignment.
Mark from Melbourne.
a.The voice was not radical or risky.
It was both, it introduced a new chapter outside the Constitution proper and see b.
b. It did not challenge the supremacy of parliament.
It did, in that even though Parliament may have set the “rules”(s129iii), s129 I gave it a head of power which gives it authority to challenge 129iii in the High Court
c. It did not have any veto power, nor could it spend money or run programs.
In actual fact 129iii allows a Parliament , so inclined, to legislatively give it these powers, including using 51xxvi if necessary
d. It would not have led to endless litigation in the High Court.
See b above.
e. It would not insert racial powers into the Constitution; they are already there.
It deliberately refrained from insisting that only A&TSI should be on the Voice. Why was this?
f. And it would not create a new class of citizenship;
It was about giving someone (who?) a new class of citizenship
g. it was about recognising indigeneity.
Well, the words were “in recognition of”, it wasn’t “This Constitution recognises the A&TSI as … etc”
My opinion only, no High Court judge here.
Calli:
Exactly.
The pot must be huge for them to be throwing so much political capital at it. It’s just that the pot is invisible to us.
Please please please put them frickin’ on the heads of sharks!
Ayatollahs vs Dr Evil would stream for big money.
Amiright?

Good for you, Lizzie.
Multiple upticks.

“Something so stupid that only an intellectual would believe it.”
Libertarian Ladette (Ethelyn King) steps up for Mulgrave at upcoming by election – Dan Andrews’ old seat.

All youse no voters, I’ll bet none of you belong to the Intelligentsia (loyke me and the ABC starf).
Disgraceful. Good on you, Lizzie.
Hubris plays a part.
The desire to leave a legacy.
The indubitable belief that one will be found to be on the “right side of history”, and therefore the electorate doesn’t matter.
Watched Citizen X on YouTube. The dramatised true story of the worst serial killer in Soviet times. The acting is superb. Stephen Rea, Donald Sutherland, Max von Sydow and Joss Ackland. Do yourself a favour.
Australia is just about crazy/dumb? enough to actually ban cash.
If Australia was smart, they’d convert all post offices into banks that can deal with cash. Otherwise, the WEF will take full control.

And stray dogs in Sicily roaming around, obviously dumped by owners and left on the street. Some of them were beautiful dogs, craving for friendship. Turned me right off ever going again.
Being on the right side of history would be to audit the $39 billion and disolve every Aboriginal body who oversee the distribution of said $$$$ to family and mates. None of them have done a thing to help the plight of outback Aboriginals.
All modern Labor leaders – starting with Whitlam – crave that moment when, old and grey, they walk into the National Conference and receive the acclamation they so richly deserve.
Bob Hawke – Medicare!
Paul Keating – Superannuation!
Kevin Rudd – Sorry!
Julia Gillard – Get Pell RC!
Anthony Albanese – Shaq presser!
RS squalid alley is no intellectual.
It’s not so much politically tempting. It’s financially tempting. Securing future rorting opportunities when in power is only 2nd to buying votes with OPM. Building cred to land those plumb parasite jobs is a major focus of our poliscum.
Barcaldine <20% Yes.
Stick THAT up your arse sideways, Anal.
O’Niell is inadvertently funny.
It ends up – If Jews breathe, it’s a crime against humanity.
Ha. Not so much as a Leaving Certificate amongst the lot of them…
