Because men mustn’t have their own spaces, whether at work or play.
I’m more and more in that camp now Roger.
I’m a female and I don’t know any women, young or old, who are even remotely interested in that line of work.
It’s tough enough on men’s bodies, Crossie…a female’s career length would be even shorter.
It’s the marxist-lesbian attack on men and boys. You can have girls in Scouts but they still have the girl guides. Just one example. You can’t have men’s gyms but they allow lezwood. Another example.
The hypocrisy was exposed when, after 50 years of campaigning against men’s only spaces, feminists got up in arms over trans men invading their spaces.
I trust they’ve learned a lesson.
I think many have, Roger.
Well that’s good to hear, Cassie.
Now I am sceptical but you cannot have an appointment of a bloke who is supposed to be in charge of our intelligence agency, then only enunciate the talking points of the Left.

No wonder even Labor Cabinet didn’t think he had much to contribute. Labor MPs may posture for the media but I’m certain in the privacy of the party room they still want to know the unvarnished truth.
Apparently the social media sites are fomenting this miltonf.

Huzzah!
Of course, that doesn’t count the multitude of people who go ‘missing’ here every year, and who are of course just having a sleep.
In a little elongated hole. With a dirt blanket.
Great times.
Slightly off topic but related to missing persons, anecdote of mine.
Relative of mine disappeared in Darwin in 1980’s. I won’t go into details but he may have been a naughty boy in western Sydney. From what was believed by the family was that he wanted to drop off the radar.
When I lived in Darwin for about 5 months due to work I decided to try and track him down if I could and with permission of my elders. It took nearly 4 months of when I was in D town on weekends etc but I got a hit with his birth date and place.
Then to BD&M who wanted proof & $50 for just the search (Even if unsuccessful), friendly lady at BD&M let on he was deceased and that I should approach the cemeteries in D Town if I wanted the info quicker. I had to get mums birth cert with his name on it certified copy. My BC with certified before BD&M would even look. We knew he would be in a paupers grave so I rang Thorak Regional Cemetery, bingo he was buried under his birth name and I had a plot number.
Sad story in the end but he wanted that way by the looks. Died about 7 years prior at Royal Darwin Hospital. Lung cancer (Yes he smoked like a chimney, I was old enough to remember him). No known family. Search by social worker found no known family (Too late all had moved from western Sydney further out to Campbelltown or died). Simple catholic burial priest only person attending.
I paid my respects by mentioning that he couldn’t hide and we’d found him even in death. I left flowers multiple times before I left by the grave. Years later my mum made the long journey from Melbourne to pay her respects.
Our family got closure, especially after believing he was as you say in an elongated hole with a dirt blanket. A lot of families don’t or unfortunately don’t care…
Sobering story, Rockdoc. Thanks for sharing that.

There will not be a repeat of 6/1/2021 in the first week of 2025. The insurrection ringleaders that day are all in gaol. You can tell that there is nobody waiting in the wings, because Trump is getting practically nil support at his trial. Two men and a dog, almost literally.
They were FEDS! you f-wit and roam free today.
Pi55 off.
Between the Feds, Antifa and other alphabet services on my count there were getting up to 300 glowies in that protest. It’s fortunate the Capitol Police didn’t shoot any of them, which would’ve been pure black comedy.
Monty doesn’t seem to be interested in the two pipe bombs, much like everyone else. Four years later, and the person/people who planted explosive devices (albeit simple and possibly non-operational) outside the HQs of the two major political parties in the U.S. capital, are still apparently at large and of little interest to the vast security state. I’m hesitant to put any store in what used to be called ‘conspiracy theories,’ but this apparent lack of interest in the pipe bombs smells like a Year Zero voter.

One of Makka’s comments from 11:08 a.m. this morning deserves repeating:

The real insurrection in the District of Corruption was when they burnt down the that church near the White House and Trump had to be moved to safety. Monty pox you are a despicable waste of space.
And then the resident priest took pains to inform the media that he did not want President Trump there. To me that was more appaling than the church being burnt.

The Australian Government Vs Free Speech
The title is redundant.
Australia, lacking a bill of rights, has never had blanket protection for free speech.
I agree with Rowan Dean, currently on Sky with Andrew Bolt. Dutton must change direction on internet, or more accurately, X being censored at Albo’s government’s demand. Liberals will lose the next election if Dutton does not change his stand. It is not a matter of censoring lies, it is the truth the government is stopping all Australians from seeing.
Spud certainly runs hot and cold. Better than Lord Waffleworth, the lowest of low bars.
The reality is that social media censorship is a long way down the list of concerns of the average Australian atm.
That’s precisely why Dutton feels safe running a joint ticket with Albanese on it and thereby neutralising it as a political issue.
I’d be quite happy with the Lieborals losing the next fed election, and hopefully getting smashed. In fact, I’d like the LNP Members of Parliament to fit into a Tarago. What difference does it make? They used to be the economically responsible party, but now?
Whichever angle you look at it from – it’s the same unflushable.

Lisa Wilkinson hits back at Ten over ‘impermissible’ costs bid
By stephen rice
Lisa Wilkinson has fired back at the Ten Network over its continuing refusal to pay all her legal bills in Bruce Lehrmann’s failed defamation action, accusing her employer of “impermissibly seeking to reagitate” the claim she won against the network earlier this year.
On Wednesday Wilkinson filed a fresh submission to the Federal Court after Ten told Justice Michael Lee earlier that The Project host should be liable for any “duplicative or wasteful” work by her legal team.
With the jobless Mr Lehrmann unlikely to be able to foot even a fraction of the estimated $10m cost of the case, Ten wants its former star presenter to pay for all aspects of the case where it wasn’t necessary for her to have separate representation.
After a successful cross-claim by Wilkinson, Ten earlier this year agreed to pay “reasonable” costs for her team, led by top defamation silk Sue Chrysanthou SC. In October, those legal costs had already exceeded $700,000 and have since ballooned to estimated $2m.
Wilkinson’s cross claim against the network allowed into evidence documents that showed Ten’s lawyers approved her controversial Logies speech.
Other documents described Wilkinson as “almost hysterical” that she might have to sell her harbourside mansion if the network didn’t cover her fees, according to Ten chief Bev McGarvey, who had called her.
“(I have subsequently confirmed … so far we have invoices for 20k from her lawyers and she is still getting paid by us on full salary and lives in a lavish multi-million dollar home with a pool and a tennis court and harbour views so I hope this is not a real risk),” Ms McGarvey said in her notes of the call.
Wilkinson is still on Ten’s payroll but has not been on air since the defamation case began.
In submissions released by the Federal Court this week, Ten’s barrister Matt Collins KC argued Wilkinson “was not entitled to incur costs in respect of her separate interests as she pleased on the assumption that Network Ten would ultimately pick up the bill”.
Dr Collins agreed Wilkinson had legitimate “separate interests” in relation to her Logies speech and questions around whether she had acted reasonably in preparing and broadcasting the story, but said other aspects of the case, such as the truth defence, involved “common interests” which were almost entirely handled by Ten’s legal team. But Wilkinson’s lawyers say Justice Lee has already ruled in the cross claim against an assessment of her costs based on a distinction between “common” or “non-common” issues, which “could not sensibly be maintained and was not”.
Ten’s new submissions “impermissibly seek to reagitate that issue”, her lawyers said.
Wilkinson agreed that the issue should be considered by a referee appointed by the court.
In his judgment handed down last Monday, Justice Lee found Ten and Wilkinson had made out their truth defence in the defamation battle, ruling that on the balance of probabilities Mr Lehrmann had raped Brittany Higgins.
”reagitate” – Lisa Wilkinson has spent her working life using words for a living.
Just appalling.
Arguing over court costs is even more demoralising than usual. Particularly as it is done after the case and the real substance has been decided. It is like cleaning up after a party.
LW to do book deal with BL
I loathe Lisa Wilkinson but still think that Channel 10 owe her and need to pay her legal fees for the simple reason that their lawyers did not stop her making the infamous Logies speech, she was even encouraged to go ahead.
I don’t trust the system, but I’m back online. Hopefully, it’ll last until cartoon time at 4am!

Yep. American foreign policy is laser focused under Senile Joe:
The Senate approved a $95 billion foreign aid package for both Ukraine and Israel, days after it was passed in the U.S. House of Representatives.Members of the U.S. Senate voted 79-18 to approve the foreign aid package, sending it to President Joe Biden’s desk.
The foreign aid package primarily consists of $61 billion in aid for Ukraine, roughly $26 billion in military aid for Israel, $9 billion for humanitarian efforts in Gaza, and roughly $8 billion in foreign aid for Taiwan and efforts to counter China’s threat in the Indo-Pacific.

They obviously did no such thing. They decided Britney was, initially, less of a liar than the bloke. As did Lee. That doesn’t make either ten or Lee right. It’s still he said- she said and there is no evidence to determine whether the alleged rape occurred.

Unfortunately they did. On the Civil standard the rape was proved. Lehrmann’s credibility was simply less than anyone else’s according to Lee. That cannot be appealed. The issue now is Reynold’s and perhaps Brown’s defamation claims. These will muddy the costs issue. Legal costs are incredibly complex. The toad is now disputing whether 10 covers all her costs. That dispute may be moot since Lehrmann is impecunious. And Reynolds and Brown may and indeed should join 10 and the toad with their claims against britterny, both of whom are not impecunious.
Correct.
Also correct.
No commenter, and I mean no commenter, is so invaluable to the very existence of any particular blog that it will wither and die without them.
Without wanting to get right into a pile-on, it is apparent that some are waiting – in vain, I would suggest – for a tsunami of ‘nooooo, please come back’ comments which may never eventuate. Instead, it’s:
‘Still here. Mainly commenting elsewhere now.’
‘Here I am.’ (followed by a quick snipe)

I think the call by Lee about him being a ‘rapist’ was wrong, but I also have to take cohenite’s words him being a lawyer and having a more intimate knowledge of how these things work.
Doesn’t make it right but.
What I can’t understand is, how had his lawyers let him get away telling porkies?
If the judge picked it up why didn’t they?
Thats all you have to do in a 2 horse race – not finish 2nd. Forget the notion that the court system is a search for the truth. That is a bridge too far. Bruce isn’t the first person to destroy their case by taking the stand. I may not have come to the same conclusion as Lee J but I can see how he did so. You need to remember that these people spend week after week assessing the credibility of witnesses appearing before them.

‘Soldier’s soldier’ Keith Payne backs accused war criminal and fellow Victoria Cross recipient Ben Roberts-Smith
By jamie walker
Keith Payne says the Victoria Cross he earned in Vietnam in 1969 was the signal honour of his long and decorated life.
At 90, he is the doyen of Australia’s living VC recipients, the soldier’s soldier who never doubted where his duty lay.
“What happens in war, stays in war,” Mr Payne insists, and on this day of days for our veterans and service personnel he has come out with guns blazing in defence of fellow VC holder Ben Roberts-Smith.
Until now, Mr Payne has kept his distance from the claims and counterclaims swirling around Mr Roberts-Smith’s conduct in Afghanistan that led to him launching an ill-fated Federal Court defamation case against the Nine newspapers last year and being branded a war criminal by the trial judge. Mr Roberts-Smith is appealing the decision.
While Mr Payne won’t be drawn on the detail of the devastating civil finding against Mr Roberts-Smith, he told The Australian he wouldn’t turn his back on a fellow soldier either, just as he refused to abandon the 40 wounded or cut-off comrades he was credited with saving all those years ago in Vietnam.
“In Ben’s case, I am very, very sorry and a little angry that that sort of thing happened to him,” he said ahead of a round of Anzac Day appearances in Melbourne.
“Because what happens in war, stays in war. There are many, many things that happened during the First World War, the Second World War and the campaigns since that have never been mentioned because it belongs to war and it should remain in the war.”
Asked if he counted Mr Roberts-Smith as a friend, Mr Payne said: “Of course. If I could, I would offer him a job … I wish Ben all the best of luck.” Contrary to some accounts, Mr Roberts-Smith, 45, is not Australia’s most decorated living soldier.
That honour belongs to Mr Payne, who holds four medals for gallantry, including the VC, and 27 other military decorations, against Mr Roberts-Smith’s still impressive tally of three bravery awards and 11 decorations.
Mr Payne also holds the distinction of being the last Australian to receive the VC as an imperial honour; the other three surviving VC holders, Mr Roberts-Smith and fellow Afghanistan veterans Mark Donaldson and Daniel Keighran, were awarded the Victoria Cross for Australia, instigated in 1991.

Sydney Sting: 7 Teens Arrested for ‘Extremist Ideology’Last updated 23 minutes ago
In a significant counter-terrorism operation, over 400 officers from the Australian police force conducted raids across Sydney and Goulburn, arresting seven teenagers suspected of holding an extremist ideology. The operation, a part of a Joint Counter Terrorism Team (JCTT) investigation, was a response to a church stabbing incident. Authorities have expressed concerns about an ‘unacceptably high risk’ posed by these individuals to public safety. The raids were a coordinated effort to dismantle a ‘youth terror cell’ believed to be operating in Sydney’s southwest. This comes in the wake of heightened security concerns following the stabbing incident involving a Christian Bishop.
I’m more concerned about those that decide what extremist ideology is.
Leave that to us.
What the frick-frack is this ‘involving’ business?
Why not the usual ‘of?’
The Bishop wasn’t an innocent victim then?

Wuhan Lab Could Disguise Coronavirus as ‘Natural’: Report | China In Focus

Re the US providing funds for the Wuhan research. I have known this for some time & have posted material here re the role of Peter Daznak’s EcoHealth Alliance in collaboration with the lab. It is slowly becoming better known. It still is beyond my comprehension. But the evidence is there. US Defence knew about it. Many of those across the world who opposed the vaccines tried vainly to publicise this connection but mainstream media banned it.
Similarly we know that the “bat lady” research scientist visited the CSIRO here. The purpose of the research in determining the possibilities of zoonotic viruses was understood. Astonishingly stupid.
Not sure if we will ever know the truth – though many of the amazing dissident doctors and researchers – like Dr. Robert Malone & others are still trying to get the truth out. Similarly US pollies like Rand Paul & others.

*sigh* Delta, dear, this is true.
Any Jewish historian will tell you that the meme of Jewish docility in the face of terror was used historically, and is still used historically, to shit on Jews.
Johanna. used. that. meme. It is not a tired old chestnut.
She was also brutally cruel and unkind to a Jewish woman while using it. That is the salt in the wound. Using the meme itself was ignorant and ill-judged. The brutality which surrounded it was appalling. Calling it ‘lacking tact’ is a cop out. I am not calling Johanna anti-Semitic, I am calling her a user of an anti-Semitic slur. There is a difference, to me anyway, though I am not Cassie and perhaps don’t have her sensitivities. She can speak to these.
You once said I slurred you re your wooden leg. I couldn’t for the life of me figure out what I had said, for apparently it was long ago, but I immediately apologised. It was the only decent thing to do. I wouldn’t knowingly slur anyone for a disability. Nor for their ethnicity.
Dover kept Johanna’s comment.
His view is not the only one possible. I respect his right in his blog but I also think in the name of free speech I can’t, and never will, pass by the anti-Semitism on display on that day, including by the uptickers. The comment came from nowhere and Cassie felt hated. How bad is that?
Delta, please look back thread at the sub-comment I made early this morning to Bourne. You are not an unkind person, so please let me manage my own comments as I see fit. I somehow think I am old enough for that.
Andrew Bolt:
That Burgess and Kershaw said this at the National Press Club long lunch for Chardonnay sipping Leftist journos giving each other wristies tells you all you need to know. They are not serious about their jobs.
Now for goodness sakes, I’ve said my piece often enough about what happened to Cassie here, and the lack of apologies not just from Johanna, and repeats have only been to respond to those extending the commentary on this issue.
Last night we attended a fund-raising dinner with Brendan O’Neill, from Spiked Online. For a fund-raiser it was a fairly intimate affair so there was no speechifying, just a good and wide-ranging discussion in a circular setting, which took in issues familiar to those here and at CL’s blog, which is pretty much kindred to this one. What struck me is that for some of the attendees there was less grasp on current events than regulars here have, so both of these blogs must be doing something right in raising public perceptions; which was something everyone agreed had to be done.
Brendan, in a later personal discussion I had with him, was very sceptical that our Liberal Party and its politicians, with some of whom he has shared platforms, can ever realistically mount the game-changing sort of opposition that this country needs; nor can Britain, of course, he admits.
So resistance has to be beyond the level of party politics, with pressure from various internet sources, which is not news to many who comment here. It is a challenging message, but keep up the good work, bloggers.

Now, now, Cohenite. That sounds like a call to violence.
Sigh!
Unnecessarily snide.
But par for your course. Grow up.
Chuckle!
Bungonia Bee, I have a very tasty recipe for pigeons.
