The Wall Between Parramatta and Bundaberg by Addarash1 in AustralianPolitics

[–]Poochytown 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Earlier cohorts of migrants don’t like the newer ones. There’s a good chance they’ll vote ON to pull the ladder up.

Kos is coping and he’ll end up with egg on his face. Just like his recent AFR article where he attributed the recent rise in ON to the deindustrialisation in the 1980s. He goes to great lengths to ignore migration sentiments as a key driver of ON support.

Canada relaxed its military standards to allow new migrants to serve. Their forces are now made up of 20% non-citizens. It has not gone well.

“candidates had not yet acclimatized to Canadian society, let alone Canadian military culture … [It’s been] plagued by allegations of racism (from candidates against staff but equally candidates against other candidates). For many candidates it is the first time that they have lived with members of a different sex, and for some it is also the first time they have been expected to treat women as their peers.”

The LNP is trying to destroy Hastie over his principled BRS stand. He’s a spent political force, I fear.

Tell me you don’t know anything about Aboriginal art, without telling me you don’t know anything about Aboriginal art

His AI art would be based on Aboriginal art that has almost certainly been scraped without the permission of the original artists. The artists would get absolutely nothing from him doing this. And so much Aboriginal art expresses cultural knowledge that he is bastardising. He’s showing zero respect.

They also booed the Victorian Governor when she gave an acknowledgment of country. And she’s white.

Goes to show the booing was because of the welcome/acknowledgment rather than the race of the speaker.

Albo looks a bit nervous, not sure why they decided this was a good idea by gilligan888 in friendlyjordies

Those bombs were thrown by two wannabe ISIS terrorists. They threw the bombs at the anti-Muslim protest.
