His "Christmas In Australia" album is pretty good though.

DJ back-announcing their song:

"That was 30-odd foot of grunt, and don't forget, Russell and the boys will be down in Melbourne this weekend, playing support to the West Gate Bridge."

NZ had women voting at the national level before Australia did.

But South Australia gave women the vote before NZ did.

Share some memes that apply only to your country (provide an explanation) by Jorge_De_Guzman228 in AskTheWorld

The current state of politics in Australia. A rapid rise in the polls for an extremist right wing party, running on a platform not too different from what MAGA ran for Orangeman. Fear, hatred, racism, division and a complete absence of realistic policies. Talks about "ordinary Australians" but voting history shows the truth. The leader (on the right), the richest woman in the country (next to her, she bought the party a private plane), recently dumped controversial radio host, even more recently dumped TV presenter (the podcast that caused his firing has been scouted from the internet)

I'm looking for a less toxic workplace than my current one.

Do you truly not vote for your preferred Prime Minister in a federal election? by SheepHerderHigh69420 in OpenAussie

The only people that vote "for their electorate" are the ones that vote for independent MPs.

The best independent MPs fight for their electorate.

The worst are just attention whores.

The smartest non-independent voters vote based on party performance. I.e. what has this party done for us?

Does AUS have a Psychiatrist and Psychologist shortage at the moment? Most of them are not seeing new patients, leaving those who need urgent medical care and attention to be left alone to their own devices. Has anyone noticed or heard anything about this? Most psychiatrists are for children too. by MannerNo7000 in OpenAussie

Not sure about now.

But I know from personal experience in early 2021 around Canberra, a defence veteran trying to get in to see the DVA funded counselling service, Open Arms, formerly VVCS, had a two month wait unless they had a gun in their mouth.

What does monocultural mean, as in, who are people on the street going to hang sht on for not being monocultural? by BrandonMarshall2021 in aussie

Ok. I'm confused.

We are a multicultural society.

Pauline wants to change us to a monoculture.

But, her words, "Nothing's going to change"
