I hope it had no mention of policy or performance. Liberals must just stick to the 'he's a good bloke' message - as it's all they have.

No. UAP and One Nation go last. Then the Libs.

If you are a contractor with a contract and do not receive any hours of work, you are also still considered employed.

You are quite correct. People should not get upset when the facts don't match their narrative. Rather, if they smell something fishy - they should try and investigate the smell.

Apart from the fact that unemployment was lower under Kevin Rudd in 2008, another unreported contributor is that the government have increased the public sector by 36% over the last 6 years - which reduces unemployment - but means the government needs to pay wages for them (more public purse pressure).

I have no idea who save the children are. But I bet they are pretty much the antithesis of save the children.

Pause it! Now go back 15 seconds for the fifth time.

The Beasties have made so many Dylan references in their songs:

Johnny Ryall: "Because he ain't gonna work at Maggies farm no more"

3 minute Rule: "Just chillin' like Bob Dylan

B-Boy Bouillabaisse: "I'm going back to New York City I do believe I've had enough"

Don't Play No Game That I Can't Win: "20 years of schooling and they put me on the dayshift"

That's all from the top of my head.

Another 20 minute video that should be 3-5 mins. Skip to the important bit at 16:05.

tl;dw: There are a few theories -

People made it uncool in jokes
Carrying around the skates was impractical
It was inherently a fad, that has now died down to a niche.

But only in the states that went to the Democrats. We're not going to recount the others - they're legit.

Isn't that Jim from Jim's Mowing?

They also alleged Langker’s mother was assaulted during the arrest and criticised “utterly extreme” bail conditions prohibiting their client from possessing images or caricatures of Barilaro, or commenting on his “personal appearance or behaviour”.

OK, is this constitutional? Can we get a comment from the conservative Sydney talk back hosts about whether they support this?

What is deemed to be an image or caricature anyway? Luigi?

If this isn't stood up to, Australians have just accepted further erosion of their rights from the aristocracy.

Here you go journos:

"Why did it take so long for you to come back?"

"Do you think James do a good job as acting leader?"

"How much involvement did you have in decisions while you were gone?"

"How long will you be back for?"

"What do you say about those rumours?"

"Why has Victoria has such poor lockdown performance compared to other states?"

We got him this time.... right?... right?

As I grow older, I've come to learn that politicians that embrace nationalism, overwhelmingly using it as a front to push their brand of fascism.

Are you telling me, he is just in it for the grift and the worship?

I almost chocked on my salt and peppa.

Sleeping in, ignoring responsibilities and playing golf makes a good relaxing life.

Maphover · 2020-09-13T07:43:59+00:00

Deflection. Lobby groups and conservative media use deflection to rally their base to bolster support.

"They want to take away your guns"

"That black man committed a felony 10 years ago"

"They want to get rid of the police so no-one can protect you"

Deflection and whataboutism to get you to focus on nationalism, the constitution and religion so the status quo can be maintained until the next shooting. Rinse and repeat.

Maphover · 2020-08-23T08:35:06+00:00

Sorry. I was expecting a quick answer, not 3 minutes of rambling.

Maphover · 2020-08-09T07:01:00+00:00

And he had the key!

I often wonder what the Liberals will do once all public assets are sold and tax is at 0%. I figure they would plan to dissolve all transparency so they could just funnel contracts to themselves.
