    Ah yes, our old men...bondi.boy-ilk.
    Many moons ago, when were were young, we marched to end inequality. We fought for equal rights and equal pay for women.
    In 1964 when I left high school and started work, married women were not allowed to work at all...in banks, local govt etc jobs.
    Get married, it was "bye bye have a nice life raising children or watching tv, reading and sewing if you can't".

    In the 1967 referendum, along with White women, we voted 90% in favour, to give Indigenous Australians equal "rights and liberties"....once we found out what was really going on in rural Australia.

    Not in parks, on Hart Island which was used as a burial decades ago. Go and look up Mark Levine’s tweet and see him rephrase his original comment about the possibility of burials being considered in NY parks. It’s not happening. I listen to NY Governor Cuomo every day and this is not something even being considered.
    I'm happy to change my original statement to:

    "in America it's killing so many people they're now talking about burying the dead (in coffins) in mass graves in public land on Hart Island."

    Well maybe you may have read it in regards to that big orange twit in the USA who up his attacks on opponents if they are female.

    Speaking of, as part of my job i to had to watch live & report ( believe me i didn't want to) - all the Democratic debates for the position to oppose Trump in the November. By far the most outstanding candidate was Elizabeth Warren- it wasn't even close. Unfortunately the only thing that cost her was she didn't have a penis. Now we are going to see the battle of the demented geriatrics Trump vs Biden. Good luck to the USA....they are going to need it.

    This is one of the problems our 'old men' have with "bright intelligent young high profile women" Jacinda:

    https://www.smh.com.au/politics/fede...28-p545f3.html

    'Do not deport your people and your problems', Ardern tells PM

    New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern has attacked the Australian government's policy of deporting convicted criminals who were born overseas, declaring it "corrosive" to the relationship between the two nations.
    In an awkward appearance alongside Prime Minister Scott Morrison at Sydney's Kirribilli House, Ms Ardern delivered a rebuke of the Coalition's tough stance, which has sent more than 2000 Kiwis home in the past six years.


    #####

    Not our people, they're NZ citizen people convicted criminals.
    Guests in Australia, who abused the privilege, ...so home they go, back to their homeland...New Zealand.

    **************

    Another;

    https://www.theguardian.com/australi...climate-change

    Australia 'has to answer to the Pacific’ over climate change, Jacinda Ardern says.

No bullshit confusion straight off the bat on what was open and what was not open. People here still cant figure out why hairdressers are open- none of this bullshit that you're an essential worker if you still got a job. She also showed strong leadership in demoting the health minister for breaking lockdown rules.

    CNN just had the NZ deputy PM on explaining the reasons for their success they have had thus far. Wasnt rocket science- they shut everything -including borders- real fast and and efficient.

    I think you missed the issue with the cruise liners. How did almost 2,700 passengers - some coughing and spluttering - were allowed to leave the Ruby Princess at Sydney Harbour, catching trains, buses and even overseas flights to get home ??? A monumental fark up thats nearly too unbelievable to be true
    Good points RR. I think she is a fantastic human being and an excellent leader. The world could do with a few more Jacintas in it. It's not her fault that her country is not the same size as ours.....LOL.It wouldn't hurt to take note of the example she sets rather than sit behind a keyboard and mock her

    Indeed.
    Many people seemed to want him convicted to punish the "Catholic church".
    Seemed to want him to rot in prison to pay for the sins of others in the Catholic church.

    High Court ruling 7-0 in favour of the appeal is virtually unheard of in these circumstances.
    The most learned of all judges.

    As for cruise ships, dumb people still traveled on them against the advice of the government who advised them well in advance of departure or returning.

    So be it!

    She seems to like lecturing us on nearly everything.
    She doesn't have big cities like we do...her cities are like country towns.
