🎻 From the Flying Pieman to QR-code crooners – Sydney’s buskers are part of our cultural DNA. So why is the City making it harder for them to play on? Tony Smith makes the case for letting them be. #Busking #SydneyLife #StreetPerformers #UrbanCulture #PearlsandIrritations
Pitch perfect: the case for backing busking
The City of Sydney is restricting busking on some streets, but in doing so it's losing the vibrancy that comes from a community of street entertainers.

Get ready for swastika and noose swag everywhere! Swastika and noose diamond jewelry! Sweatshirts! Hats! Comforter sets! What a shithole country we are.
U.S. Coast Guard will no longer classify swastikas, nooses as hate symbols
The military service, which falls under the Department of Homeland Security, has drafted a new policy that classifies such items “potentially divisive.”

“This was a cynical strategic manoeuvre to avoid losing voters to the far right, but it seems, based on polling, that all they have done is prime their own voters to join the far right rather than stay with the Social Democrats.”

Another potential Denmark example for Labour to follow!

So now Australia will be making F35 fighter jet parts for Saudi Arabia. A country that Amnesty says ignores people’s basic human rights, restricts their freedoms and inflicts severe punishment. The regime also kills dissenters. No one even asked us.

So many people defending Australian cricketers no matter what they do reminds me of why I never complained about David Hookes and Greg Ritchie when I had to interview them both and they both made me feel like a dirty hooker…even though I was a journalist doing my job.

Also why I still hate sport.
