Mmm,,,there was a big majority plebiscite win for SSM including a massive youth vote and, apart from lot of mug Cowboy and Bronco supporters (who ever heard of using American logos for NRL teams - must be yo-yos) with the arses out of their pants who bought that $80m bullshit from a fat charlatan who holds vast coal mining leases in the Galilee basin and who had already dudded his own workers out of their entitlements, the Libs got there by just one seat and that was with Murdoch behind them all the way. Hardly a shining example of the majority having spoken. There is no print media not owned by Murdoch antwhere in Queensland.

I think not understanding those lengthy political self-hating diatribes shows you have some intellect mate!Originally posted by Rooster1908 View Post
Didn't know how to respond , I didn't understand a word of it ,
As soon as they reference the mystical 'climate change' or play the worn out racist card, you know things are getting desperate.

There is a difference between toughness and stupidity.
I just hope that the Inflictor can control himself, and harness and channel that toughness and energy to maximum effect.MRR or Rabid
Some people believe supporting the Roosters
is a matter of life and death, I am very disappointed
with that attitude. I can assure you it is
much, much more important than that.

Morrison govt supports action on climate change, as ScoMo explained...and explained that Australia is meeting all the climate targets it has signed up for.Originally posted by zac View Postthis isn't a political forum but to be fair 61 said that a majority of Australians support same sex marriage and action on climate change. that's true.
Labor/ Greens 50% and 100% renewables targets were ridiculous, never achievable in the time frame.
xxxxxxxx
There's so much safety gear available now, there's really no excuse for not using it.
Now, about all the scaffolding collapses that are killing young people like Victor.

AJ gives us the info, as does Rupey, then we decide for ourselves.Originally posted by Paddo Colt 61 View PostIn whose opinion Jonesy's, Gina's, Fat Boy's, Murdoch's, Jax's? How come you "know" al this BB what with your smattering of French and your C- for the Nailed Club put together in Woodwork?
They tell us things the Left does not.

Ah yes, the SS.Originally posted by Paddo Colt 61 View PostOut of respect for the original poster of this thread I will desist from hereon responding to BB. That said, the Right Wing cheer squad on Sky have denied everything that Turnbull said about them except that the Lib Tea Party saw him as not being "one of them" meaning that his mildly progressive views (most of which the majority of Australians would agree with - SSM., the need to address Climate Change) did not accord in any way with their petty bourgeois anti intellectual, anti muslim/anti China/anti Union and pro religion articles of faith all in the service of the Murdochs. It was that same irrational petty bourgeois cohort that, in anther time, made up the bulk of the SS.
It's true BB, you did miss out on a lot at NBHS, the ability to think for yourself being most prominent.
What I kind of called my govt when it sent me a registration form for possible conscription into the army for forcible shipment to the Vietnam war
as cannon-fodder.
Basically "If you don't register we'll arrest you and toss you in prison for the duration".
Not even Victor's age, not yet able to vote, enter a pub, etc I wanted to know where my democratic rights were.
"What is this, Nazi Germany"?Last edited by bondi.boy; 04-22-2020, 08:37 PM.

Another racist war in which the only real heroes were the fellas who went to jail rather than take part in an attempted genocide forced on them by Menzies who sent several requests to Washington begging for us to be involved. By far the most Australian casualties caused by their own Officer class who ringed Vung Tau with anti personel mines only to have the locals dig them up overnight and re-use them with devastatingly tragic results.

I enjoy the political banter so dont mind the post being hijacked to a degree....... never understood people who vote right wing (Especially working class non skilled people).. not talking about nut jobs ...cant stand the left or right wing extreme nut jobs .... but when I look at the happiest countries in the world or countries with the best quality of life (and hottest chicks) Its always the more left leaning social democrat countries (Denmark/Norway/Finland/Sweden/Canada). Why we don't aspire to be like them has me beat!!! We are heading towards a more USA style economy... now out of the countries I mentioned above...which would you prefer to raise a family in and what tilt would you prefer our country lean towards (Norse economies or USA style). Especially if you are not lucky in life..in those countries you can still get a great education and looked after if sick..sure you pay more in tax, but you get the benefits of a great society to live in and a great qty of life from birth to death. We were like that and in some regards still are, but its slipping quickly! One thing we have that they don't.....Murdoch!!! This is a generalisation but that's where I draw my political compass from. Real life samples of different approaches. (Did I mention the chicks??) haaaaa
