news, ocean, landscape, stuff.... usually somewhere within the zone of Sydney, Canberra and Eden.....
LOL imagine Albo saying this soon:
Keir Starmer says immigration system is “almost designed to permit abuse” and that it risks “pulling the country apart”.

PM says UK needs tougher rules to reduce immigration significantly or it risks becoming “an island of strangers”.

Is there a Teal from a government school, yet?
Is there a non white Teal, yet?
I find the Teals quite fake- private school white kids....
Is there any diversity, in any way, yet?
Nobody else discusses this.

The Independent in safe Labor Blaxland is coming 2nd, very good effort- see:

Just remember that the Zionists want to get rid of The Greens, and remember that most Teals are pro Israel.
Did Israel win today?

I can't relate to the majority of Australian politics now.
Labor, the LNP and most Teals are pro genocide.
The Teals/Pocock are private school elites, funded by Climate 200 elites.
Not much to celebrate.
The majority are pro genocide or eco wealthy elites.....

David Pocock's BCC email this afternoon.
Sorry David, I voted for 2 x Indies for the Senate last time, as I usually like Indies, but you both voted for, or supported Israel in some way or another.
I think The Greens have been the best on #Gaza.

Apparently the ACT Greens voted against having street / highway election signs.
OMG, all the other groups/Pocock have signs. Sometimes Greens are so insular....
Now The Greens are invisible.... #Canberra

I think political donations per candidate should be limited to $10, 000.
It's insane that Pocock got $1.7 million.

On ABC Afternoon Briefing, people said young men are pro Trump, & young women are pro Greens. I haven't heard this, as a Mum of males in their 20s. Is it the anti-woke, anti-trans, anti-climate angle, that young men like re Trump? Or the pro industry angle?
What's going on?

Meanwhile, people have little spare cash & local cafes (Sweet Bones city)/shoe shops (FSW Jamison)/cafe chains (19 cafes) going bust, incl one cafe chain today!!
Commbank profit debate interesting. Even AFFR saying $10B a year profit (not revenue, profit machine) is a political problem

What they don't mention is CLF 'bail-out' scheme means the govt stands behind them. They can't go bust

Recent Canberra shop closures I have seen:
-FSW shoes Jamison
-I read about Braddon Sweet Bones closing
Any more?

RONALD REAGAN (1988): We should be aware of the demagogues who are ready to declare a trade war against our friends, weakening our economy, our national security, and the entire free world—all while cynically waving the American flag.

Why is everyone so sweet about Canada?

4 Corners tonight is about the rise of Independents/minor parties, and the lack of support for the 2 major parties, due to people being so ignored, esp in Western Sydney.

Time to turn off the taps.
Not a single bottle of American wine, beer or bourbon should be sold anywhere in Canada.
From here on in I will only drink "freedom" wines from Canada, France or Spain.
As for the beer? It's shit anyways.

Canadians booing the U.S. national anthem isn’t something I ever thought I’d see, but this is what happens when you let a psychopath criminal with isolationist and protectionist policies back into the White House.

I was wondering why Eden's Fig Cafe $10 iced choc/coffee/milkshake prices & $6 tea were a shock a few days ago, & I googled other cafes.
Here at Belconnen Stella's, the drinks are less. Even Candelo Cafe & Toast cafe are less than Eden's Fig Cafe. Stella's is the best deal.

Have you been to Eden lately?
I saw a cafe with a $10 milkshake & a $10 iced coffee, my first sighting of that price, ever, only in Eden!
I did op shopping instead of a cafe....cute old plates!
