As Muslim core beliefs are opposite to Green ones, it cannot be a permanent alliance IMHO.
The Greens think they will dump and discard their allies when no longer needed. The Muslim view would be the mirror image.
My suspicion is that the unnatural alliance will play out as it did in Iran.
Gaza unites them presently along with a broader commitment to socialism and the welfare state with Muslims a major beneficiary thereof as a permanent victim class.

In three sentences or less, what is the best reason for believing that Zelenskyyyy started the war?
I think the case could be made that the “colour revolution” was a US/EU orchestrated coup in effect.
https://insightintelligence.com.au/colour-revolutions-the-most-sophisticated-warfare-method/
Putin the shirtless definitely started the shooting war though.
Remember, in 2019 Zelensky was elected as a peace candidate. The Americans would have preferred a Poroshenko victory.
Their parliament had already amended their constitution in Feb 2019 to make NATO membership a national goal. I don’t know enough about Ukraine law to know if Z even had authority to change direction on that issue, at least not without parliament undoing the amendment. Hard to see how Z was going to be the peace candidate.
Z was pushing Biden for NATO membership in Sept 2021, so if Z had any authority to switch to a Russophile policy he certainly had not used it in the intervening 2 years.
The direction set by Poroshenko, public support, and Parliament and immediately adopted and sustained by Z, was provoking Putin and risked escalating war.
The war doesn’t start with the first shot.
Yes it does. Anything that happened before that is used as a justification by the side that starts the war by firing the first shot.
“War is the continuation of politics by other means.”
Clausewitz
Agreed but that doesn’t finger Zelenskyyy specifically.
During Z’s time the war didn’t officially begin until Russia invaded Ukraine. Any appeal to a prior provocation on the part of Ukraine has to go back to 2014 – a time before Z became president. So there’s no conceivable argument that Z started the war.
Perhaps I should have given more context. I was responding to something Cohenite said yesterday about Bolt:
Calling him a Nazi is pretty stupid, obviously.
The only thing left to check is, did Trump really blame Z for starting the war?

OK.
So possibly the most sophisticated and innovative security service in the world … who brought you the entertaining spectacle of mass simultaneous castration by pager, followed by remote controlled walkie-talkie decapitations, not to mention multiple targeted assassinations abroad … is running a psy-op via an obscure website which probably isn’t close to the top 100 views in the US.
Oh, and they forget to cover their tracks by using disguised IP addresses.
Sure.
From the Oz.
Hamas has accused the Israeli military of trying to kill the last Israeli-American hostage in Gaza, after the military group was forced to admit it had “lost contact” with his captors.
The inflammatory claim came as Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu vowed the group would continue to “suffer blow after blow” unless it agreed to a truce.
In a statement on Telegram, Abu Obeida, spokesman for Hamas’s military wing the Ezzedine Al-Qassam Brigades, said contact with the group holding Edan Alexander, whose release reportedly takes centre stage in Israel’s latest proposal for a renewed ceasefire.
“We announce that we have lost contact with the group holding soldier Edan Alexander following a direct strike on their location,” Abu Obeida wrote. “We are still trying to reach them at this moment,” he added.
However, he continued: “It seems that the (Israeli Defence Force) is deliberately trying to kill him and relieve themselves from the pressure caused by the dual-citizen prisoners in order to continue its genocide.”
Hamas’s military wing also released a video addressed to the families of the remaining hostages, warning them that their loved ones were likely to return in coffins if Israel kept up its bombardment of the territory.
Should be pretty straightforward response now:
“Hamas has said <ENTER LIE>>”

Greens’ Franklin candidate quits over dual citizenship in possible boost for George
Matthew Denholm
A Greens candidate hailed as the party’s “face of the future” has been forced to quit the election contest over dual citizenship concerns.
As forecast by The Australian, the Tasmanian Greens on Wednesday announced the withdrawal of their candidate for the southern Tasmanian seat of Franklin, Owen Fitzgerald, after legal advice he is a New Zealand citizen.
This makes him ineligible to stand for election to federal parliament under Section 44 of the constitution.
Greens senator Nick McKim said fault lied with the part’s “vetting process”. “This situation is not Owen’s fault,” he said.
Of course, he has no idea which sh!thole he was spurted out of
Face of the future?
Does he have a toothbrush moustache?
Doesn’t look like he could even grow a moustache.
Gosh, I must stand for parliament. Wait a minute, I’m not a citizen, duzznt madda.
While on the subject of s.44, may I suggest that our PM is an Italian citizen by virtue of his Italian father and Italy’s jus sanguinis citizenship law.
This is why he did not include his father’s name on his parliamentary citizenship declaration.
Why the LNP has not pursued this baffles me. It’s not just the question of Albanese’s dual citizenship but that his attempt to obfuscate on the issue goes to his character.
Oh please, we’re talking about the SFL’s.
Fatima Payman cough…
Wasn’t she supposed to be off to Afghanistan to sort her “dual” status out a coupla weeks ago ..?

That was an April Fool announcement.
The Greens kicked off the recent major punch-up on MPs being ineligible for election due to foreign citizenship – part of an internal brawl.
The Liars and SFLs joined in happily – then the issue went vewy vewy quiet-
the adults in the back rooms realised many Hon. Members were neither, not being constitutionally entitled to sit.

That looks like a woman to me.
That would be Luigi’s uncle, who was his mum’s chaperone on the trip.
Good get! Def NOT the waiter
Roger, some time ago, I think I read that Italian citizenship can only be claimed through the maternal line. In other words, the mother has to be an Italian citizen. For obvious reasons, I found this kind of funny.
Hmmm – then why has Daddy Mollusc been disappeared from Lil Abalones records?
It’s acquired by birth if one parent was an Italian citizen, JC.
Albanese acquired it by birth.
Hence the absent father on the declaration, else Albo would have been out of parliament.
Haven’t we already been down the Papa Luigi (MIA) road?
“This situation is not Owen’s fault,” he said.
Or alternatively:
“Owen was too stupid to read the rules and just thought he’d have a go at getting into the trough.”

The divorce rate and the abortion rate in Hungary have both halved since 2010 (or very nearly so for the abortion rate, from 16.9 per 1000 women to 9.6; by comparison our abortion rate is estimated to be 19.7).
Hungary seems to be run by sane, intelligent people. For another thing, they want to avoid getting into a war with Russia, unlike most of the EU leaders. And they won’t take in Muslims.
It’s not without its problems, chiefly the economy (not helped by the recent drought), but the government has excellent social policies.
I suppose it’s too late to send any of our ostensibly “conservative” Liberals there on a study tour to learn something.
So apart from terrible results on income, education, health and the environment, Orban made Hungary great again. Hmm.
They rank as pretty solid middle of the pack on most metrics you mong.
Indeed FM, notwithstanding they didn’t get their share of the EU “redistribution funds” that other EU nations get. The equivalent of Australia’s entire agricultural GDP for a year.
Yet they have only **slightly higher** inflation than us and if not for the suspension of EU funds, their GDP would be a full % above ours.
Their health system is in the top 15%.
So, not world class but hardly “terrible.”
What was that?
Sounded like a rake hitting an empty vessel.
Our lot only do “study” tours to places the “Hollywood type” folk frequent .. FFS!

The video from Lei’s Real Talk covers a leaked Chinese Communist Party (CCP) document detailing China’s comprehensive strategy to counteract former President Trump’s tariff war. The host reveals that this strategy is not just economic but spans diplomatic and military dimensions, indicating a “total war” as declared by Beijing. Key takeaways from this strategy include: 1. **International United Front Strategy**: China aims to form global alliances with countries frustrated by the U.S.’s trade policies, isolating the U.S. economically. Target countries include major economies like Germany, France, the UK, and others. 2. **Financial Strategies**: The document outlines financial war plans, asking officials to transfer foreign assets back to China and prepare for potential financial confrontation by selling off U.S. investments, hoping to destabilize U.S. financial markets. 3. **Domestic Economic Preparations**: The strategy includes enhancing self-reliance, possibly reviving rationing systems reminiscent of the 1970s post-Cultural Revolution China as a secret weapon against economic pressure from the U.S. 4. **Strengthening Political Alliances**: China plans to deepen ties with Russia, Iran, and North Korea, aiming to counter U.S. global influence and weaken NATO. 5. **Military Preparedness**: The document highlights military strategies, particularly focusing on a potential conflict in the Taiwan Strait, which would give China a geographical advantage over the U.S. The leaked document has reportedly caused significant anxiety among Chinese officials, primarily due to instructions that could substantially affect officials’ personal wealth and political stability. Xi Jinping’s aggressive stance stems from fears of being held accountable for issues like the COVID-19 pandemic. However, there is skepticism within Chinese technocrats about the feasibility and realism of Jinping’s strategies. The video suggests that while the CCP wants to project strength, internal confidence is shaken, and these moves might be politically self-destructive due to the potential for economic turmoil and social unrest. The host suggests that this situation exposes a fragile political reality in China, potentially marked by future internal and external conflicts.
(Reporter Li Jingru of Watch China) According to comprehensive reports from overseas media, recently, while announcing a 90-day postponement of reciprocal tariffs on countries other than China, US President Trump raised tariffs on Chinese goods to 125%. With the previous 20% surcharge on fentanyl, the final tariff is 145%. Beijing also announced a tit-for-tat increase in tariffs on US goods to 125%. The escalation of the US-China tariff war has attracted attention from the outside world. Watch China reporters interviewed Professor Yuan Hongbing, a famous legal scholar living in Australia who often discloses the inside story of the CCP’s top leaders.
The real purpose of Trump’s tariff war has become clear
Regarding Trump’s move to suspend reciprocal tariffs for 90 days but increase tariffs on China to 145%, some reports said that Trump’s decision was sudden and caught the world off guard. Yuan Hongbing said: “I think Trump’s overall strategic arrangement is an overall strategic layout. The fundamental reason for this strategic layout is very simple, that is, the strategy of the global expansion of the Chinese Communist totalitarianism and Trump’s ideal of making America great again are natural enemies in destiny. Generally speaking, this time it was Trump who first launched an economic war and tariff war against the Chinese Communist tyranny, and it was a decisive battle. The Chinese Communist Party obviously lacked sufficient preparation for Trump’s decisive economic war attack. Of course, they had some strategic thinking in advance, but they were not fully prepared. However, due to the pressure of the overall situation, it had to fight a comprehensive battle, which is what the media now said that Xi Jinping was resisting Trump’s economic war attack. As for this incident, we can get a deeper understanding from a document within the Chinese Communist Party that was just issued by a conscientious person within the Chinese Communist Party system.”
The CPC Central Committee issued a secret document to deal with the escalation of the US-China tariff war
Yuan Hongbing disclosed the main content of this secret document of the CCP in an interview. “Now let us introduce to the international community the general content of the document just issued by people of conscience within the CCP system. That is, the CCP’s provincial and ministerial officials, prefectural and county-level officials will enter the confidentiality rooms of their respective regions on April 7, April 8, and April 9, 2025, and read a document of the CPC Central Committee. They are not allowed to record, excerpt, or take photos. This document is the resolution of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee on responding to the tariff war of the Trump administration in the United States. The title of the resolution is ‘Through decisive great struggles, firmly grasp the initiative and dominance of the great changes that have not been seen in a century.’ The above title of the resolution is the general policy and principle proposed by the CCP to respond to Trump’s tariff war. This resolution claims that the US tariff war is not an isolated economic challenge, but an initiative initiated by Trump. The first battle of the total war of politics, economy, military and culture. This is also the content of this document. The resolution states that the entire party and the entire army of the CPC Central Committee must respond to the wise strategic call of General Secretary Xi and defeat the hegemony of the United States in the economy, military and international politics since the end of World War II through a decisive great struggle. This resolution has a total of more than 7,000 words, and makes a series of so-called strategic guidance deployments for the CPC to conduct a so-called decisive struggle with the Trump administration in the United States in various fields of economy, politics and military. Since this resolution is only allowed to be read in confidential rooms in various places, and it is not allowed to record, excerpt or take pictures, it is because of the fear that the content of this confidential document will be known to the US authorities. Therefore, people of conscience within the CPC system can only rely on their memory to make a report on the general content of the resolution.
The resolution first proposed guidelines for dealing with the tariff war, requiring the CCP’s United Front Work Department and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to cooperate with each other and take a two-pronged approach, and to regard international united front work as a top priority in the future. The key point of international united front work is to make full use of the widespread dissatisfaction of the international community that will inevitably be caused by Trump’s tariff war, and focus on forming a strong international economic united front against Trump with economically developed countries such as Germany, France, Britain, Canada, Japan, South Korea, Australia, and China ‘s neighboring countries, and resolutely safeguard the globalized economic order with the World Trade Organization as its core. If Trump insists on fighting the tariff war to the end, then the power of the international economic united front must be brought into play, and India, Vietnam and other wavering countries must also be united. Taking advantage of Trump’s self-isolation of the United States, the United States must be kicked out of the globalization process of the international economic united front, and the era of American economic hegemony must be ended in one fell swoop.
In order to implement the above-mentioned guidelines for economic warfare, this resolution specifically proposes two international financial action plans. The first one is that the state should be aware of the deposits of party and government officials and state-owned enterprise officials in foreign countries totaling more than 200,000 US dollars. Once it is necessary to implement a major decoupling from the US economy, the families of these officials will be immediately required to transfer their deposits in the United States back to the country or to other countries. Anyone who disobeys will be severely punished for treason. The second international financial action plan is to make so-called full preparations. Once the central government decides to decouple from the US economy, it will be able to complete the sale of 1 trillion US dollars of US Treasury bonds and 2 trillion US dollars of US corporate stocks and bonds in the shortest possible time.
In terms of economic warfare, this resolution emphasizes the need to further improve the mechanism for achieving self-circulation in China’s huge domestic economy. At the same time, in the face of Trump’s declaration of a state of emergency in the United States, the CCP’s resolution requires governments at all levels to be fully prepared to partially or fully restore the supply system to cope with possible difficult situations. Moreover, this resolution also calls the restoration of the supply system the trump card to defeat Trump’s economic warfare (Yuan Hongbing: You can see that the entire CCP is now completely returning to a policy in the desperate situation of history, but it regards it as a trump card.)
In the field of international politics, the resolution requires the CCP’s International Liaison Department and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to consolidate their strategic cooperative relations with Russia, Iran, and North Korea, respectively, as the cornerstone of international politics to cope with Trump’s challenge. On this basis, China should continue to deepen its relations with neighboring countries and southern countries, especially to strengthen its economic, cultural, political and military presence in Southeast Asian countries, especially Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar and even Thailand. At the same time, China should grasp the Marxist law that economy determines politics, promptly discover and use the anger and dissatisfaction of European countries and Canada with Trump’s tariff war, divide and disintegrate, at least weaken the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, and knock down the support point of NATO’s political and military strategy of the United States after World War II. And use this conflict of economic interests to weaken the international political relations between the United States and Japan, the United States and South Korea, and the United States and Australia and New Zealand, gradually making the United States not only autistic in the economic field, but also losing its status as an international policeman in international politics, and handing over the international political hegemony of the United States that has lasted for 80 years since the end of World War II.
In the so-called military struggle, the resolution requires the entire party and the entire army to deeply understand and resolutely implement President Xi Jinping’s strategic concept of a military decisive battle with the United States in the Taiwan Strait. The resolution believes that if the economic war with the United States eventually develops to a white-hot level, then a military decisive battle between China and the United States is inevitable. Taking the initiative in choosing the battlefield for the decisive battle into one’s own hands is the first step to victory. Therefore, the resolution believes that by launching a decisive battle in the Taiwan Strait, the CCP can rely on the strategic depth of the mainland and gain a geographical advantage over the United States.
The resolution also defines the war in the Taiwan Strait launched by Xi Jinping as a new type of conventional war with systematic informationized battlefield full-area control under modern high-tech conditions backed by a strong and reliable nuclear deterrent. The purpose of this war is to destroy the US military bases in Japan, South Korea, and Guam in the Philippines under the condition of US military intervention, and to use this war to withdraw the US military presence to the east of Hawaii, that is, to turn the United States into a regional country. The resolution finally declares that only by bravely accepting the challenges of the stormy waves can we win a great victory. After defeating the total war launched by Trump, which is led by the tariff war, the so-called ideal of a community with a shared future for mankind advocated by the CCP will become the direction of human development in the 21st century. The above content is roughly what the conscientious people in the CCP system expressed from memory. ”
Central secret documents cause widespread and extreme concern among CCP officials
Yuan Hongbing quoted the words of people of conscience within the CCP system and further disclosed: “People of conscience within the CCP system believe that the CCP obviously intends to use this resolution to stabilize the extremely chaotic state of people’s hearts within the CCP caused by Trump’s tariff war. But the result is contrary to expectations. After this secret resolution was transmitted to officials above the county and regiment level in accordance with the aforementioned confidentiality procedure, it not only failed to stabilize the hearts of officials, but on the contrary, it was like pouring a bucket of cold water into a hot oil pan, causing widespread extreme anxiety among officials.
According to people of conscience within the CCP system, a new theme immediately emerged in the whispers and heated discussions in Beijing’s official circles. This theme is that Xi Jinping’s so-called decisive great struggle against Trump is likely to become the last and biggest unfinished project of Xi Jinping’s rule. After this project is unfinished, it will be the time for the CCP to perish as a party and a country.
The official circles in Beijing have been talking about the fact that the main reason why Xi Jinping decided to react fiercely and take on Trump’s tariff war is that the think tank of the CPC Central Committee has convinced Xi Jinping that if he backs down on the tariff war, the United States will inevitably join other countries to re-raise the COVID-19 pandemic and hold the CCP accountable for its crimes against humanity and economic responsibilities. This is exactly what Xi Jinping fears the most. So some people call this worry about the international community holding the CCP accountable for crimes against humanity and economic crimes for the COVID-19 a political Achilles’ heel of Xi Jinping. Because it was Xi Jinping’s direct instructions that caused the Wuhan virus pandemic to lose its initial effective epidemic prevention time and spread to all of China and the world.
In private conversations among the CCP’s technical bureaucrats in the economic and diplomatic fields, Xi Jinping’s attempt to unite Europe, Japan, Australia and other countries to kick the United States out of the international political circle is generally ridiculed. They generally believe that Xi Jinping’s idea is a completely unrealistic dream. Its consequence is bound to repeat the Cultural Revolution when Mao Zedong once wanted to form a United Nations annex to exclude the United States. In the end, it can only leave a historical laughing stock and there is no possibility of realization.
At present, the Beijing officialdom is filled with an unprecedented atmosphere of despair. Officials generally judge that the shock wave of Trump’s tariff war may form a tsunami of unemployment in China this summer. Because last year, less than one-third of China’s college and technical school graduates actually achieved formal employment, and the rest were some temporary employment, some underemployment, etc. In 2025, more than 12 million college and technical school graduates will flood into society, so these officials judge that the mutual stimulation of unemployed college students and a large number of unemployed migrant workers after graduation will constitute the first wave of “storms” in Trump’s tariff war. This “storm” will impact and shake the CCP’s stability maintenance mechanism.
Beijing officials are whispering that the final strategy that Xi Jinping can come up with is to return to the state-monopolized economy and the supply system or semi-supply system under the wartime state during the Cultural Revolution, and then launch a war in the Taiwan Strait to solve the economic crisis he is facing. Officials believe that all the above strategies and tactics to deal with Trump’s current tariff war are actually seeking death. Because the implementation of a state-monopolized economy and supply system will inevitably lead to the extreme desolation and extreme hardship of people’s livelihood. And this consequence is very likely to ignite the long-accumulated anger in Chinese society against Xi Jinping’s retrogression. The most serious threat to Xi Jinping from launching a war in the Taiwan Strait does not come from outside, but from within the Chinese Communist Party’s military, especially among the current senior officers of the Chinese Communist Party, there are generally two-faced people who are absolutely not loyal to Xi Jinping. According to a second-generation red person familiar with the situation in the Chinese Communist Party’s military, many high- and middle-level officers are now eagerly waiting for Xi Jinping to launch a war in the Taiwan Strait. As long as China enters a state of war, these officers will find a historic opportunity to launch a mutiny and completely get rid of the tyrannical communist emperor Xi Jinping. This is the reaction we are seeing now from this document within the Chinese Communist Party system.”
The high-level political purge in the military is far from over. Has the CCP’s attempted armed invasion of Taiwan been postponed to 2027?
According to the overseas Chinese media “The Epoch Times”, recently, multiple departments of the Chinese Communist Party simultaneously issued new policies related to conscription and war preparation drug management, encouraging and guiding college students, especially fresh graduates, to join the army, which has caused concerns from the outside world that the CCP is preparing to invade Taiwan by force at an accelerated time. Yuan Hongbing analyzed this and pointed out: “Now the large-scale conscription of college students is to alleviate the inevitable dilemma of unemployment after graduation, and also to prepare for launching a war in the Taiwan Strait. Moreover, according to conscientious people in the Chinese Communist Party system, a symbolic phenomenon is that all the advertising videos in Beijing Airport have been replaced with the blood-red word “unification”, which looks extremely creepy and extremely murderous. Conscience people in the system believe that, in general, this historic decisive battle between the United States and the Chinese Communist Party’s tyranny is inevitable. The reason is simple, that is, there is an irreconcilable and fatal hostility between the two political wills of Xi Jinping’s communist totalitarianism global expansion and Trump’s “Make America Great Again”. This hostility is objective, and it cannot be eliminated by anyone’s will or through any political strategy.
In order to realize his ideal of making America great again, or to prevent America from further weakening, Trump took the initiative to launch this tariff war against the CCP tyranny. As you can see, the tariff war seemed to be aimed at all countries, but it was a surprise. Only the CCP and the United States were left on the battlefield to fight an economic duel. The final result of this economic duel is that the United States will win the final economic victory, and the CCP will suffer a heavy blow. The reason is simple. The size of the US economy and its potential for economic development are far greater than the CCP tyranny. So when the CCP is forced into a desperate situation economically, Xi Jinping has only one way to fight back, that is, to launch a military war. The most likely place to launch a military war, or a place that the CCP has long dreamed of, is the Taiwan Strait. So it may be inevitable that the century-long decisive battle between China and the United States will break out in the Taiwan Strait, or more accurately, a military decisive battle between the CCP tyranny and the liberal democratic front led by the United States. However, due to the current large-scale purge of the army within the CCP tyranny, the purge in the army caused by Miao Hua’s disloyalty case and Miao Hua’s accusation has not yet ended. Therefore, the conditions for Xi Jinping to launch a war across the Taiwan Strait are insufficient before 2025. However, launching a war across the Taiwan Strait before January 2027 will be a highly likely event. And now the two words “Beijing Airport” have created such a bloody and murderous atmosphere, which is to a certain extent a psychological warfare. “
Like all dictatorships, especially closed community communist dictatorships, the CCP has no understanding of incrementalism.
The idiot thugs have no understanding that “our way or the salt mines” has no value in a real world populated by players who are as strong, or stronger than you.
It is their weakness.

Bombshell hush money scandal: Parliament House researcher asked to sign NDA over rape and bullying claims
A Parliament House researcher was twice asked to sign a confidentiality agreement by the Albanese Government over allegations she was discriminated against and bullied when she disclosed how she was allegedly raped as a young woman in politics.
Anna Hough, 46, a mother of three, received legal letters from Attorney-General Mark Dreyfus’ department offering her a low-ball sum of money and asking her to sign a confidentiality agreement.
This is despite his public insistence that the Albanese Government would never demand a sexual assault victim sign non-disclosure clauses to keep their claim of assault or harassment secret.
And Finance Minister Katy Gallagher, who weaponised the treatment of women against the Morrison Government, allegedly declined to meet with the public servant and long-term Community and Public Sector Union (CPSU) member and delegate.
More at the Link
Usual Liars hypocrisy. Mean Girrrl Gallagher has no self awareness at all.
Plenty of self awareness – and a f’n strong sense of self preservation.
All the usual Brittany Blob crew.
The timing of historical sexual assault allegations makes you wonder …
We believe you, only if we can weaponise the allegations against the conservatives. Double standards me thinks, especially after the last effort by the Fab 3 from Labor during the Lehman imbroglio.

Bandit is so sure the ALP will have to do a deal with him to be able to form government, he is in effect, campaigning for the LNP by laying down his demands, and aligning himself with the Teals.
Then the Ali party is also aligning with the Greens, in preference deals. Now they have joined up of their own volition, it should be so easy to pick them off with messaging –
Vote ALP and get PM Bandit and deputy Faruqui. High tax, super tax, no capital gains, no dividends, they want your hard earned savings to waste on their pipe dreams.
Especially with the expose of the SEC supposed charity which is really a Chinese funded front against the LNP.
I wouldn’t be so sure. Most of the people I deal with have effectively checked out of the election, regardless of how they’d normally vote.
A general malaise of not caring, because nothing changes. Absolutely nothing gets better. The solution is always some big announcement, import more people, and ignore Australians.
Yep, that is pretty much my view.

I had a thought…
If the trumpenreich is planning to hit Chinaaaahs energy dependency would they fill the gap with coal?
If so would that put Australian coal mobs on the front foot for earnings?
Or would the probable downturn in production and therefore energy demand cancel it out?
Which is a convoluted way of asking should I buy whitehaven coal shares now
Well, I can not afford to buy any shares, BUT, if I had the ability, I would definitely buy any active coal producer as well as any gold producers…. but what would I know.

This has to be a first.
FMD. The Labor member for the suburban Darwin seat of Solomon is a climate zombie who’s pushing renewable energy to lower power bills – when they have increased by around 800% as a result of Labor’s devotion to the climate scam.
I’ve just watched the Sky News debate between the Labor hack, Luke Gosling, and his female CLP opponent, Lisa Bayliss, an ex-copper.
Being a climate zombie in the NT should mean Gosling has zero electoral credibility. In 2022, he needed Greenfilth preferences to get over the line against what seems to have been a weak CLP candidate.
A redistribution favours the CLP and, after the election of a new CLP government in the Territory, Lisa Bayliss has the wind at her back.
Look for Solomon to be one of the surprises on election night.

Over many years of being deeply involved in progressive politics, it has become increasingly apparent to me that this approach can only be sustained by people that live with a degree of privilege. For that reason, I am grateful that my parents struggled to make ends meet, and that their parents did before them. Because if we had been materially wealthy as well as being white, and in my generation’s case at least, English speaking, I might have been so sunk in privilege that I couldn’t tell my head from other parts of my anatomy.

Universities caused this.
It takes severe education to have to pretend this sort of distilled effluence is rational.

Trump now considering a farmer bailout.

Don’t get your udders in a twist.
Many other countries have extensive subsidies/ protections in place.
See if you can find three that don’t.
No. A commie would force farmers into a collective, force them to farm till they dropped then confiscate the food and let the farmers starve. Isn’t that what the commie heroes Mao, Stalin and Lenin did??
Uncle Ho, also.
Australia?
Nah.
All those non tariff barriers against fruit flies and insane cows or whatever.
“Socialist pinko commies” don’t typically bail out farmers to destroy or hurt China. They, like Biden, usually just send hard US currency directly to the CCP while destroying farmers and other US industries. The $50Bn in farmer payments for the climate scam (to buy windmills/photo voltaic cells) is one such example under Biden. So too the $30Bn for farmers (to buy sh!tty Chinese equipment) under the Inflation Reduction Act! What a joke.
I’d be more than happy to temporarily prop up farmers whilst resetting the global trade and putting a lot of pressure on your main adversary.
But I guess you’re the resident expert on handouts.

I see in the Official Guide to the election that, even though it is a half-Senate election, we must fill in 12 squares below the line, while only six must be filled in to vote above the line.
The ‘impartial” AEC trying to encourage above the line voting?
Not really.
If you vote above the line you will be, in effect, filling out 12 or more below the line boxes.
If there are two Family First candidates, two Libertarian candidates and you vote them 1 and 2 above the line, you have effectively cast four preferences.
If they had anything less than 10-12 below the line, votes for minors would exhaust pretty quickly and there would be hundreds of thousands of invalid Senate votes … resulting in an even more “unrepresentative swill” than we have now.
Fair enough, but my point was that extra effort is required to vote below the line, and not just in working out which individuals are worth a vote.
That’s why it was changed. Some win, some lose. I think they were getting too many invalid Senate votes – which does not fill you with confidence about what’s on the other end of the pencil.

Blind Spot – An Eye-Opening Film About Campus Antisemitism
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PXtRX14gaac&t=3794s
I would urge everyone to watch it, it’s about 1.5 hours. The documentary deals with the explosion of Jew hatred on American campuses after October 7 however without a doubt the seeds were sewn over the course of decades. One of the groups responsible, Students for Justice in Palestine, has been active on American college campuses for decades and there is talk that some leaders of this pernicious organisation had prior knowledge of the planned attacks on October 7. The documentary is a little depressing at times however it’s heartening to hear that private colleges such as Fordham University in NYC, Notre Dame, Hillsdale and others have stood firm against the Jew hatred. A student tried to set up a chapter of Students for Justice in Palestine at Fordham University, a private Catholic institution, and was refused permission. The student took legal action and the courts sided with Fordham. Good.
But this Jew hatred has now cascaded down into American schools, both government and private school.
Thanks Cassie; bookmarked for this evening’s viewing!!!
“Justice” is the very last thing you’ll get under Hamas.
Someone should ask the brain-dead moron how many Jews live in Gaza (precisely none) compared with Arabs living in Israel (2.1 million).
What a wretched scam decarbonisation/net zero is; apart from global boiling being bullshite, this hypocrisy:
The Illusion of Domestic Emission ReductionsLet’s start with what the data shows. According to the Global Carbon Project, since the year 2000:
At first glance, that might look like climate progress. But it’s anything but.
Those reductions in the West haven’t occurred because of cleaner innovation alone, they’ve come because we outsourced our manufacturing and heavy industries. The steel, cement, aluminum, and petrochemicals we once produced domestically are now made in countries burning more coal, emitting more carbon, and bypassing the same environmental standards we impose on ourselves. In “The Green Revolution’s Dirty Secret”, I explored how this offshoring affects not just emissions, but also human rights, resource depletion, and geopolitical stability.
This isn’t decarbonization. It’s creative accounting. We didn’t reduce emissions… we outsourced them, then patted ourselves on the back.

ALP: Dutton is fearmongering over Russians seeking a presence in Indo – its inconceivable 9again)
Meanwhile in 2017
https://www.theguardian.com/world/2017/dec/30/australian-military-alert-russia-bombers-indonesia-exercises
An Australian air force base was put on alert while Russian strategic bombers conducted exercises in neutral waters off Indonesia, a move experts said showed Moscow was looking to extend its influence in the Pacific.
The base in Darwin was briefly put on a state of “increased readiness” in early December during the Russian exercises, which, according to the Russian Ministry of Defence, involved two nuclear-capable Tu-95MS bombers and more than 100 personnel.
RT, the Kremlin-backed English-language news channel, reported the exercise was the first Russian air patrol in the Pacific launched from Indonesia.
One of Australia’s foremost national security experts, Peter Jennings of the Australian Strategic Policy Institute, said the exercises showed Russia was again extending its influence to the peripheries of the world. “It is a reminder Russia is here and wants to be a player in Pacific security and will use military force to demonstrate that,” he told the ABC.
The aircraft took off from Indonesia’s Biak airfield, on an island north of Papua, and stayed in the air for more than eight hours. The aircraft flew only above neutral waters, according to the Russian military.
The Russkis know SE Asia waters well. Remember the Camh Ranh base?

This Chink manufacturer is buying into the myth that Tangerine Man is stupid and can be easily fooled (or the Chinks can bribe their way through as usual).
The minute there is a whiff of this trans-shipment charade, Vietnam will levied with the Chunk equivalent tariff on ALL goods (not just trans-shipped).
There will be no long drawn out WTO lawyer fest running for years with no real result (except to continue to enable the fraud).
Wham, Bam, thank you Ma’am.
Now, who would like to play Trans-Shipment Roulette next?

WA voters have returned an expanded crossbench in the new Upper House, with the Electoral Commission finally calculating the results from the March 8 poll.
Under the new Statewide system, One Nation secured two seats, and the final spot went to the Animal Justice Party’s Amanda Dorn.
As predicted, the Greens won four positions and the Nationals picked up two.
After holding a majority for the last four years, Labor was reduced to 16 seats, meaning it will need the support of up to four crossbenchers to pass laws.
The Liberals won 10 seats.
The Liars lose control of the Upper House after Sneakers did away with the regional and pastoral divisions, ostensibly in the name of one vote one value.

And to be re-elected the political leader of the laziest country on earth, the Incredible Luigi may or may not have calculated his best chance is to schedule the election during a fortnight of public holidays when Australia celebrates Easter and, a few days later, the Anzac Day long weekend.

The Anna Hough story at 3:25 is now a non-starter on the Sky site….although the link somehow brings it up.
Well, I’m off on leave Kittehs so you see you on the other side of Easter. As they say in the classics:
Christos Anesti
We got washing of feet Thursday night, Friday morning prayer, adoration of cross Friday evening, Saturday morning prayer and then we go all night (real Passover style*) from 11pm to 5am Sunday morning with a huge feast afterwards.
I intend to return fat, well suckled and content.
*no offence Cassie as its not a real Passover but was the way all Christians celebrated Easter until Constantine turned up and decided to join the crew…
Er…other way ’round, Lys.
The Passover prefigured and anticipated Christ’s Paschal sacrifice.
And gentiles in the early church didn’t celebrate the seder.
I realise theee Roger. Just stating the point that it was originally an all nighter for Jews first, then Christians.
OK.
You had me worried there for a minute that the Christian observance of the seder practiced by some evangelicals had crept into the Catholic Church.
Totally.
And the evangelicals that do this don’t even recognise the true presence. Was watching Scott Hahn last night: A must watch for all evangelicals (just as sometimes you have to watch “the other side”)
Earlier:
I don’t know if Bayliss is a super-pollie in waiting or not, but she has the backing of the current NT CLP government which is riding high on locking up crooks left right and centre via changed bail laws (to the judiciary’s chagrin, I might add) and Jacinta Price as well.
Gosling has heavily relied on a few years in the military to gain and retain support in D-Town, which is a garrison town not unlike Townsville, but that’s it. Otherwise he’s another bog-standard Labor stooge.
Gosling is also known – in certain circles, and with what I am told is some level of justification – as ‘Nose Beers Luke’.

Things went downhill when Howard lost the election, and the Lying Slapper quickly introduced Fair Work.
The commodities boom essentially funneled a one-trillion-dollar jackpot through the economy. Any mistakes made by governments were masked by the boom, and no one seemed to care.
?State governments, such as Victoria’s, were also propped up by real estate revenue, which enabled massive infrastructure spending but was largely a payout to the CFMEU.
I don’t have the stats to hand JC but productivity really took a wrong turn around the time of Turnbull and it’s never recovered.
(no) Work from home?
And yes, the commodity boom was mishandled.
Oh Roger – you hit the jackpot! I have been saying this to people for ages & just get a blank stare!
Morrison misread the “pandemic” and destroyed the economy. Frydenberg, sadly, was a willing accomplice , borrowing and creating HUGE debt and ramping up immigration to “grow” the economy.
Labor is a nightmare, but the decline started under the Coalition.
We keep reading about how vital rare earths are to the modern world and how they’re used in everything from smartphones to missiles.
I checked the total global demand, and it’s astonishingly small considering how important they are, at least for rare earths.
But then you get to the broader category critical minerals and this is huge.
Pardon my ignorance. What is the diff between rare and critical minerals?
There’s an important distinction. Rare earths are minerals you’re never heard often with unpronounceable names. Critical minerals, you’ve heard of with easy sounding names.

“Trump now considering a farmer bailout.”
To be honest I do think it mightily unfair to apply sudden tariffs to agriculture. Using carrots as an example, how exactly can a grower stop them mid-growth, and then restart them ready for sale, at the drop of a hat? That can be done to a product assembly line, but not to asparagus, or milking cows.
Coles sells second grade carrots branded “I’m Perfect Quirky Carrots”. Cheaper than the usual carrots. Just fed half a large one to lady possum. She was very happy.
I like that the grower has found a market for the less than top grade carrots, which are perfectly yummy, and that Coles supports them by selling them, albeit at a lower price.
Me too, buy them all the time, no difference in carrot quality. One can also buy ready to cook with egg liquid, made from little baby and the occasional giant egg, great use of product which doesn’t fir in the standard carton. I appreciate there is cold storage of bulk agricultural product, but I still think farmers should be afforded a bit of lead time re massive changes in the financial status of buying and selling.
If Boris wants to operate out of Biak, encourage them.
Biak is the most unpleasant place on the planet. Unbelievably hot, with every bug known to man, disease ridden, plus, being uplifted coral throat infections from coral dust are constant.
They do do a good chili crab however.
And in some good news from the UK (I know, it’s rare to read good news from this once sceptred isle)…..
Transgender women should not be legally defined as women, the Supreme Court has ruled.
Handing down the court’s judgment on whether sex-based protections should only apply to people who were born female, Lord Hodge said the terms “woman” and “sex” in the 2010 Equality Act referred to biological sex, not acquired gender.
“The unanimous decision of this court is that the definition of the terms woman and sex in the Equality Act 2010 refer to a biological woman and biological sex,” he told the court.
Amen.
Stand by for Labour to attempt to amend the Equality Act.
Finally, truth and common-sense from a court. Unanimous! Take that men pretending they are women.
Now we need to get behind Kirralee Smith and Sall Grover here.
Not at all sure we will get the same result from our judicial system, thanks to the stupid Ranga In Charge (at the time) who could not define what an actual woman is.
I think the idea of ‘acquired gender’ is the way to solve this issue.
No ‘acquired genders’ in women’s sports. They can still call themselves ‘women’ but we all know it’s a con, there are ‘biological women’ and ‘acquired gender women’.
Keep ’em out of our toilets too.
If they’ve ‘acquired’ something they can use the disabled (now often labelled ‘unisex’), loos.
CCP’s master plan to counter Trump causes panic among Chinese officials
Lysander earlier …
Two of us sitting in a packed cafe at Charles de Gaulle aerodrome at 9:00 a.m.
A bloke with a skinhead haircut toting a pint of beer approaches.
No spare seats so Mrs P motions him to sit at our table.
FMD.
He sits down and immediately gives me a lesson in judging books by their covers.
“Thank you ma’am, sir. I must apologise. I don’t normally drink alcohol in the morning. I am in the US Marines and have been on deployment for six months so I thought I might make an exception. I hope you don’t mind”.
Charles De Gaulle airport was where some Mooslime started shouting the odds about why his wife was not removing her veil for a security check, and turned to find two airport cops, both carrying sub-machine guns, taking an interest in the proceedings…
My anecdote above was probably 15y ago now. I was in the small restaurant just through customs. 4am, waiting for connection, had jet lag and was like the marine, meh I’ll have a beer or two.
Small restaurant had a few Asian families in with small children. Like I do always I was quiet and had a few bottles of Tiger.
No filthy looks, no one actually cared and once the call to gate went I finished off. Contrast the same with a 7am beer in Sydney once that I had body being on a 7 hour time difference after clearing customs. I had multiple filthy looks. I ended up after boarding sleeping the whole 3 hours from SYD-TSV and the beers helped.
Suppose what I’m trying to say people in airports generally are having a good time heading holidays or have their circadian rhythm completely balls up. Alcohol is a relaxant.
Do concede the younger generation cant handle their grog more so than us of earlier generations. Add drugs to that mix which IMO is very under-reported in said incidents. Unfortunately again for those of us who never cause issues we will lose another privilege and I understand the risk management side of why that is so.
Lovely story, Sancho. I have an inferior tale to tell, but, for me, a strange experience. Was coming home from solo trip to Italy ( husband went on motorbike safari with mates) & young lass sitting next to me shared a drink or two. For some reason I brought out a bottle of Cognac I was taking home. We shared a glass or two. Husband was mightily annoyed by the reduced quantity that arrived home.
Been there. Done (most of) that!
I have never drank before or during flying. I enjoy the experience.
Only time I have was on a Jetstar sardine can to Darwin escaping Horrible Hunchback’s Covid tyranny (#neverforget). That was four cans of VB over a four hour flight; done so as it relieved me from wearing a mask.
Maybe if I did it frequently as part of employment etc like Rockdoctor then yeah, a different story.
Gawd hope I don’t sound like a groggo…
😀
Funny was going through the passports the other night to search for the current one. Photos certainly don’t get better…
Do have some interesting experiences where flight attendants have kept feeding me beer. Believe it on not Qantas 767 crew who knew me and China Airways.
All good. Enjoyed your whine at Brisbane Airport last weekend.
Never ever fly Jetstar.
Leaders Debate on Their ABC soon at 8pm.
He is a loathsome, offensive brute, yet I can’t look away.
From the Oz.
Peter Dutton says a Coalition government would spend more than the Albanese government proposes on defence and national security and would provide the money earlier.
The Opposition Leader said Labor’s target of defence spending of 2.3 per cent of GDP in 10 years was “totally inadequate” and in any case Labor would not even achieve the 2.3 per cent aim.
“It’s certainly inadequate, and it’s not going to reach 2.3 per cent, they won’t achieve that figure. Let’s be very clear about it,” Mr Dutton said in an exclusive interview with The Australian.
“We will increase defence spending significantly,” he said.
Mr Dutton is expected to reveal the Coalition’s defence policy next week, ahead of Anzac Day, with an eye to cutting costs and leveraging industrial involvement in defence industries, particularly in the AUKUS nuclear subs program.
“We didn’t come to that agreement like a mendicant, cap in hand with nothing to offer,” he said.
“If Australia is a reliable and trusted partner and a partner with capability and a partner willing to contribute to the overall industrial output or defence capability of our respective partners, then the whole idea, in my mind, of AUKUS was that we would be adding to the output so that the drum beat could increase because of our partnership,” he said.
Gold just popped through US $3300.
Hooray!
It just means the currency is continually depreciating.
It’s a frigging economic disaster hiding behind a ray of sunshine.
How sweet it would be if this ugly, fat arsed bitch gets her comeuppance:
Trump administration refers NY AG Tish James for prosecution
Phrenology rarely disappoints.
I read she had resigned?
Gold up 30% for the year.
BTC down 18%
What is BTC?
Bitcoin. Right. I don’t understand that.
Explains why I have not heard from my Bitcoin devotee friend
for a while.
You never hear about the losers.
I well remember when I gave my kids one each of a bitcoin and a gold coin. I remember it because the price of each was about 1600 AUD at the time.
Fast forward to now, the bitcoin is 132,000, and the gold coin 5000.
Zoom out and you can see which has been the better performer.
Latest from my son, who is savvy on these things, BTC is done, and Bitcoin Cash is next as the new international fiat currency.

The movie on SBS now: 6 Days. The religion is not really mentioned. But it was part of the Shia/Sunni conflict. Sunni Arabs wanted to separate from Iran.
Even when you ask A.I., it skates over the issue. No wonder no one in the West realises the hatred.
They hate each other far more that they hate the Jews. Jews and Christians can be a source of tax.
Apostates (kuffar), as they see each other, must be deaded. A simple fact you can find out from plenty of taxi drivers in Australia.
Therein lies the solution.
ken oath. There is always a solution.
Research the Iran/Iraq war in the ’80s. That was big. Didn’t rate as much of a mention as it deserved.
Shows you how much people know. Ask them what the second biggest war fatalities-wise following WWII, and none of them have heard of the Congo. Iran/Iaq either.
Funny how the UK Supreme Court couldn’t deliver this judgement re definition of women under a Tory government.
Leaders Debate on Their ABC.
Infuriating.
They both dodge questions about their own plans and just attack each other.
Both housing plans would drive up prices, Albo may have more stimulus for supply, Dutton may stop more immigration pressure.
Neither honcho ever answered the question “when will power bills come down?”
Albo saying cliiimate chaaange causing more extreme weather events, Dutton saying we don’t know, nope, they’re both wrong, we do know that extreme weather events are not getting more frequent (e.g. global cyclones, USA weather).
Both planning deficit budgets, both morons committed to Nutty Zero By 2050, grrr!
Annoying that we’re having to vote for either of these parties.
We don’t. We can write rude words or draw rude pictures on the ballot paper. It’s the only way of letting them know they all suck
As time goes on, the more the Uniparty unifies. It’s like a mathematical certainty or constant.
I fear we have outlasted the world where political leaders’ words fired our hearts as much as our minds.
Such as:
”We must go forward, not backward. Upward, not forward. And always twirling, twirling, twirling toward freedom.”
My daughter graduated today and we were given three seperate welcome to my world genuflections.
My wife commented on the very few men sitting on stage in the Uni academic assembly. Trite speeches about “disrupting” something or other. I had to laugh at these cookie cutter academics pretending to be innovators and leaders.
Congratulations to your daughter. I have already got a Peter Finch-Network rant organised for my daughters graduation.
The cookie cutter academics are what you get at the very tail end of a civilisation. The Chunks won’t have any use for them.

Bwah ha ha ha ha.
The truck-stop hooker who steals ciggies from the servo shop demands to be shown a little respeck!
Just cracked a bottle of Laphroaigh Lore.
Tastes like it was filtered through an Arab labourers unwashed – for a month – grundies, then hung over a bonfire for two weeks – just for the final finishing taste.
Chucked the rest down the sink.
At least the muncher will be clean.
LOL. Yeah nah stick to the XXXX
I think it’s just needles and syringes that attract this top rate.
There’s only an hour left in this thread so nobody will read this, but…
Today I saw a Trumpet Of Patriots election ad on Youtube promoting a policy that is NOT on the https://trumpetofpatriots.org/policies/ web site.
IIRC, it said HECS debts would be forgiven/cancelled and tuition would be free.
Finding that one a bit hard to believe, especially how it would be paid for.
If yer never elected, you can promise anything.

Probably about 15 years since hearing that …a guess.
Look I don’t use derogatory female insults often but I’m struggling not to about Sam “glug glug” Maiden. You got gifted a sentence for drink driving with a BS excuse any pleb would be jealous of. IMO it would be, as what Flyingduks magistrate referred to as interesting or words that effect. (My memory fades there on his exact words)
Eat some humble pie and carry on a little chastened, LOL yeah na. Sam honestly get off your high horse you convicted drink driver before try to smear others!
