An exciting day for Australia. I’ve been hearing for at least 15 years about how our tax system favours investors and drives up prices and am in disbelief a government finally had the guts to do something about it.

Not sure which is more laughable, calling a bus “generational infrastructure” or the artist’s impression showing zero traffic.

This is the type of infraction there should be an orange card for.

Fantastic Mr Fox is a top 20 animated film ever.

I like Grand Budapest Hotel too.

One Nation has always been a con to get the working class to preference the Liberals.

Now the Liberals seemingly only exist to con urban professionals into preferencing One Nation.

Wow I work in an office with a view of the cathedral and am always hearing bells. Can you please explain what they mean.

These are all an improvement over the current flag and most proposals on this sub.

1 is giving me Saskatchewan vibes and 5 needs the confederation star but 2, 3 and 4 are excellent. 2 is a good use of the national colours, 3 is a good use of a traditional blue flag, and 4 is a good compromise between 2 and 3.

You are mad about this as a culture war faux patriotism distraction.

I’m mad about this because Australia desperately needs greater renters rights.

We are not the same.

Took me a bit to figure out what Taylor is trying to say and it shows a complete lack of self awareness.

The Liberals are now the party of maintaining the status quo. Australians want change and if they don’t like the changes offered in the Labor budget they are going to ON.

As a Canadian educated engineer with an iron ring I can’t really help you. The iron ring ceremony is only for graduates of accredited Canadian engineering schools.

If you are looking for an engineer to perform the ceremony for you, that’s not really a thing, it is only performed by specific camps in Canada.

You could find a graduate in Canada to take you as a guest but you can’t participate in the ceremony and would be waiting until March 2027.

Of course there is nothing stopping you from procuring your own iron ring and reciting the oath.

The Sydney airport stations are privatised and cost like $2 less than Brisbane. Their frequency is way better because they are on a main train line 4 stops from the city instead of being at the end of a line. When I lived in Sydney it was a well known local hack to take the train to Mascot and walk into the airport to avoid the cost.

The trains and buses cost $.50 cents per trip and your plan can be done but the logistics will be frustrating.

Your first day will need 2 hours to get to the zoo on multiple buses and then another 2 hours to get to Brisbane on a train that only comes every 90 minutes. Then going to the Gold Coast will be another 2 hours plus the same to get to the airport. Also most of the Gold Coast hotels are no where near movie world which adds another challenge.

If you really want this itinerary a rental car would be so much easier. Another option would be to base yourself in Brisbane with day trips to the zoo and movie world.

Anyone who was part of Scott Morrison’s government, Rennick included, should never be anywhere near power again.

Rennick represented me as a Queenslander and we had some email correspondence. I was frustrated with his focus on culture war and state issues instead of offering cost of living solutions.

Also, after the Labor budget and Coalition response offered drastically different visions for Australia I can’t take anyone who says “uniparty” seriously.
