Interesting that ABC 7:30 and Jacob Greber chose “4th leader in 5 years” rather than “3rd in 11 months” to comment on VIC Lib spill. Some good PR work there (or showing a bit of bias).

The National Socialist Network held an antisemitic rally outside New South Wales Parliament today - astoundingly, it's emerged this afternoon that they did this with approval from NSW Police. www.smh.com.au/politics/nsw...
Police allowed Nazi rally outside NSW parliament
More than 60 people attended Saturday morning’s rally after notifying police more than a week ago. The police commissioner said he had no idea it was going to happen.

I do love this piece of art by the satirical genius Wankers Of The World.

He actually slipped some of these on the shelves in the Buckingham Palace gift shop.
