Any excuse for an adventure into central Australia on two wheels or four. Or anywhere else for that matter...

Hence increasing our defence integration with the US. And then there’s the impact of spending extraordinary amounts of our defence budget on a single capability that may never arrive as many others have pointed out.

He’s behind the engaged few on this site but he’s probably well out in front of the many who barely know of AUKUS.
I highly doubt most understand how tightly integrated our defence force is with the US. Unwinding that will be very difficult but that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t have an escape plan.

In the name of “social cohesion” Zionists will soon have their own exclusive armed special forces on Australian streets, in addition to special oversight of Australian media, arts, culture, and education by way of the Zionist envoy, Jillian Segal. Cool and normal.

This is from the court filing. We know for a fact that CSG told an Australian soldier to disobey direct orders and lie to his superiors - to put them and Israel above his oath to this country.
And Minns wants to give them permission to be their own official armed police force here. This is fucked.

Earlier this year, a Jewish Australian soldier in our army was stripped of his security clearance after he admitted he participated in these CSG training camps. He also said that CSG directed him to lie to ASIO about it to avoid further scrutiny of its activities. www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

I purchased one of these recently. It clearly worked but not as well as I expected. Now I know why!
The TGA needs to clean this mess up properly. Us Aussies need to be able to trust the sunscreens we use.

Ten more sunscreens removed from sale over SPF concerns
Ten further sunscreens have either been pulled from shelves or "paused" from supply to retailers over concerns about their sun protection claims, the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) announces.

Yes, we’re overdue a correction to the manosphere and the religious extremism that seems to be flourishing under these clowns.

"Bruce's life has been destroyed" by Bruce who seems to think he can live in a world where laws and norms don't apply to Bruce. And never mind the destruction he's caused along the way. A walking nightmare of self-entitlement that should have been removed from society years ago.

It is not enough that he steps away from all defence-related corruption referrals, he needs to step away from any referral of anyone who has previously been in Defence or associated with Defence.
Better yet, just do the country a favour and leave in disgrace.

Qantas comms on this were ‘this has happened, you’re on your own’. It was clear from the beginning that their approach was all about self protection.

Bookmarking this for later reference. However, I have no confidence in Netanyahu and the Israeli government allowing the ceasefire to hold for any significant period. Hope I’m wrong.

The dismissive responses from Albanese and Wong said it all for me. They REALLY dislike Pocock shining light on the lobbying that goes on in PH. Good to see some MSM have picked this up. Get the man a more powerful torch I say.

Starlink has about 7,000 satellites in their constellation. I'm guessing you saw one after another on similar orbits passing overhead .
Eutelsat has about 700 in LEO. The Amazon Kuiper LEO constellation is going up. Then Lightspeed, etc. etc.
Soon you won't be able to see the stars.
