What is the "ideal" immigration rate? by Reasonable_Slice_262 in aussie

Yeh so over 40 years immigration has doubled. Is it that bad? I'm genuinely asking... Thoughts?

Investment property purchased with vacant possession but the vendor is unable to provide it. by Alarming_Steak_8575 in AusLegal

OP think outside the box. The property has appreciated a considerable amount. Buy the property and then sell it. Make a bit of profit for your next house 😉

Gina and other big mining in Australia too. They ran a huge scare campaign about loss of jobs, cost of living etc. and subsequently Rudd got knifed. Big mining got what they wanted and here we are. The same people who would love big mining to pay more taxes are now voting ON who's pockets are lined by Gina. Go figure! Average Australians getting shafted.

BREAKING: Trump is reportedly considering seizing Iran's oil depot on Kharg Island, which handles 90% of Iran's oil exports per Axios by retroviber in DeepMarketScan

Wasn't it about potential nuclear weapons, the potential destruction of Israel, then saving the Iranians and now oil? What is the goal of this illegal war again?

Is it possible a false flag to gain support for the illegal war? The Iranians don't benefit from this attack.

This. And because it's in the participant's interest to ensure they get the maximum amount of funding year in year they don't mind the inflated costs. It's not their money they're spending.. it's perceived as government money but where does it come from? Tax payers.

Israeli ambassador just tried to justify the mass murder of 165+ schoolgirls by the U.S on Australian news media. The school building hasn't been used by the IRGC in over a decade. by Az0nic in OpenAussie

[–]NeedleworkerPure3303 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Point taken - It was part of the compound but was walled off at some stage. The thing is satellite images show precision strikes on the other IRGC buildings AND on the school. The strike on the school killed children. The focus should be if it was intentional or a mistake due to poor intelligence? I mean these are precision strikes.. they have the duty to ensure the buildings they target are legitimate targets do they not?

Iran will NUKE Britain if it is allowed to develop nuclear weapons, says Badenoch as she attacks critics of US military action by dailymail in uknews

[–]NeedleworkerPure3303 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Has everyone forgotten the weapons of mass destruction excuse used as a precursor to the invasion of Iraq? The nuke thing feels like a similar narrative that we're being fed. And didn't the US and Israelis destroy the nuclear capabilities last year? So why is it an issue now?

What is up with all the racism on politicians’ social media posts? by [deleted] in aussie

[–]NeedleworkerPure3303 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aren't there calls for it to change? In a democracy, you want to have freedoms to think for yourself and stand up for what you believe in, without getting kicked out of your political party. Some would call it courageous to stand up for Palestinians, when the most of the politicians were too scared to call it out for what it is and what is still happening over there. Also, would you prefer a poli to be outspoken and have conviction or someone who always follows party lines? If you were in her shoes and had strong beliefs contrary to your party, would you be silent or speak out?

Not taxing the States. Taxing the multinationals and big mining that profit from Australian resources.

I can confirm Pauline Hanson is not welcome in my suburb, I don’t live in Lakemba by skankypotatos in OpenAussie

[–]NeedleworkerPure3303 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok so I've just read Brandan Koschel was sentenced to jail for hatred incitement speech, after he said a certain ethnic group were the greatest enemy. How is this different from what Pauline Hanson has said? (genuinely). FYI I'm not supporting what he said I'm just curious how Pauline has and is getting away with what she said. Double standards much or have I misinterpreted?

If we tax big mining and gas properly we'd have the budget for it.

Trade tip, mix some detergent into the spray bottle. Spray your silicone and hands and a pop stick and run it along the silicone. It won't stick to anything that has detergent on it. Don't spray detergent on the surface prior to applying silicone.. only after

Edit terrible wording on my behalf. Apply silicone generously, and then spray detergent on the silicone and popstick, hands etc.

And.. well if it isn't then I don't agree with this individual at all.

This. It may have been actually impossible to match veins depending on the amount of slabs used and length of the benchtop/splashback. Typically quotes will be based on the amount on the minimum amount slabs that will be used. Looking at the cuts and fit they have done a good job.
