In News Today, Andrew Forrest of FMG said that his love for China had nothing to do with his business interests , rather he was simply in ore of their commitment to diplomatic transparency and global citizenship

Disgusting, treasonous, parasite.

Do any of the reported 200,000 students from China every year ever return home to China permanently, or is the visa they are here on merely a pathway to permanent immigration, as was suggested on tv tonite?

And I would agree 100% , just added a rolling eyes emolji because I think he is being self serving even getting the medical supplies , apparently that is being repaid by the taxpayer

Yeah I know mate...Twiggy seems to be immune from criticism with his obvious resources and power.

But Australia deserves praise for having the guts to call for an inquiry into the source responsible for the pandemic.

Most would say a trifle disloyal too in setting up his own Health Minister, who incidentally has done a bloody good job through this.

Implying that China didn't necessarily own this virus and it's transmission....and also smuggling in a Chinese diplomat to a press conference without the Ministers knowledge was pretty low...sources have also suggested.

So self serving , manipulative , cunning wasn't what you were trying to say

In keeping with my policy of not being sued I will say that Andrew Forrest is the kindest, bravest, warmest, most wonderful human being I've ever known in my life.

Just in case you missed it:
“Australia is always there, making trouble. It is a bit like chewing gum stuck on the sole of China’s shoes. Sometimes you have to find a stone to rub it off,” Hu said.

Australia called 'gum stuck to China's shoe' by state media in coronavirus investigation stoush

Australia has been described as “gum stuck to the bottom of China’s shoe,” by a Chinese state media editor as Beijing criticised calls for an inquiry into the coronavirus origin as “political manoeuvring,” further straining ties.

“Australia is always there, making trouble. It is a bit like chewing gum stuck on the sole of China’s shoes. Sometimes you have to find a stone to rub it off,” Hu said.

I grew up at Clovelly and literally never went for a surf/swim or anything at Maroubra. It was a shit hole then according to my parents, I am guessing things have changed

Nup.

[redwhiteblue]

When we grew up in Paddington, we used to have a friend of my fathers who would take the whole family to Clovelly for a swim, they also had friends who lived in a unit on Clovelly Rd a few blocks back from the beach and they used to join us, we would go for a swim then get ice creams afterwards, they used to be a Streets neapolitan bar which you used to unwrap yourself and put into the squareish shaped cone. This was back in the late 60s and i have fond memories of that time.

I just looked up my old loft apartment and it brings back a lot of memories for me. I used to see Mario Fenech all the time as he lived around the corner and Gus used to live down the road and Freddy around the back in later years. Life was so much simpler then. There was no instagram, Facebook, camera phones, oh and now something called Tic Tok for goodness sake... now excuse me whilst I go fetch my abacuse so I can work out my budget for the week...

Coogee beach is a dump. Tiny beach no surf.

Thats why we used to call it Lake Coogee

[horrie hastings]

I lived at Clovelly for 4 years and it was one of the happiest times of my life and my family loved coming to visit. Mum was still fit and well back in those days and was able to come along with us to the beach. Had a few Happy Boxing days there. Mind you, that was back in the 90's when it was not as expensive as it is today. I don't ever remember setting foot on Maroubra Beach at all. Coogee or Dolls Point/Sans Souci were our go to beaches as children when I used to come to Sydney for school holidays.

Coogee beach is a dump. Tiny beach no surf. Overcrowded with twat English tourists. (Sorry JT).

When i first moved out from my parents back in 1982 the first place i rented was in Coogee, about 3 blocks back from the beach, quite exciting back then but now yes it is a dump over run with back packers.
