One evening last year, walking back from the pub, I saw these on a wall
I don't get groceries delivered, so I wasn't aware of what these posters were actually about
For a glorious moment I thought it was some sort of political statement trolling the seppo vice president

There have always been "light blue" Tory parties.
In the 1960s Gordon Barton's Australian Reform Movement/Australia Party
In the 1970s Don Chipp's mob
SHaC has been so successful because the Teals
cornered the "affluent green" conservative vote
without having a party structure

The Libs have collapsed on Sydney's northern beaches, Scamps and Steggall would not join a sinking ferry. The others would simply not tolerate being told to toe the line by party bigwigs, which is why the press gallery image of SHaC pulling strings behind the scenes says more about them than him

When I first heard of the attack at Huntington (and early reports said two murderous thugs were involved) I thought that they might be Michael Barton and Paul Taylor

I've had my share of cramp over the years and learned to live with it
Then a few days ago I took some strong painkillers for my joint pain and got cramps that would kill a brown dog
A quick google of the side effects of the pills said cramp was to be expected
Everyone knew but me, it seems
Arghh

End all funding every single private employment services provider.
Salt the earth so those in change of them never get any public money ever again - run them out of the country.
Get rid of mutual obligations
Bring back the CES
Raise the fricken rate
Ain’t hard.

Churchill was a right wing genocidal war criminal
Just because he was the (unelected) prime minister of a country that fought against a fascist country it doesn't make him "antifa"

Poms were using "autumn" before the 1500s and there was plenty more migration to North America before Webster encouraged the seppos to talk as they do.
Webster is also to blame for "gotten" and some other ridiculous usages.

Some say Latika could never surpass her "Theresa May is too left wing" article, but she has been striving to do so ever since.
For example: her prediction of this year's election was a valiant attempt.

Charlie KLURK (thank you Mr Hastie) was a small time grifter born into money but rejected by the university he applied for.
He turned his failure into a lucrative spiel by claiming that white men are victims
He was practically unknown here
Liars who claim otherwise are skewered brilliantly by Ronni:

The performative mourning driven by social media, was from blueprints sitting there in large conservative think-tanks like the Heritage Foundation, waiting to be deployed

It's so funny how up until December 2013 "Ukranian" was universally accepted as Nazi-coded in Australia.
We even had a literary scandal that pivoted on everyone knowing Ukranian diaspora are all ex Nazis.
Then the world's most effective propaganda machine kicked in for the Maidan coup/revolution.

I'm getting predictably wound up by stupid attacks on the UK as failing. People who can't remember endless strikes, over 3 million unemployed, rampant football hooliganism, crime rates a multiple of current levels, desolate inner cities, pensioner poverty, actual race riots need some perspective 1/
