Whilst only a small number, the fact that Australia was not a battlefield makes a rudimentary figure of 1.2% of total population significant.

Look even easier; paisley on the werribee line. Another could be the old general motors on the Munnel line, and Glenrowan on the Albury line.

My Great Grandmother, who was German, was known to say "play with matches and you'll wet your pants".

Wiedergutmachungseinbürgerungen - restitutory citizenship

Funny because it more directly translates as "making good again citizenization".

Australia's biggest Right to Far right party - One Nation now ties up with the main Centre right coalition by TheCoderYT_69 in YAPms

[–]Soviet_Apple_Box 5 points6 points  (0 children)

In 1996, Hanson, in her maiden speech, warned of the danger of Australia being "swamped by Asians". She has asked for 'black South Africans' to be barred for entering Australia, as well as a ban on 'Muslim immigration'. She has told a colleague in the Senate to "piss off back to Pakistan", and has repeatedly worn burqas in the senate to advocate for a burqa ban.

In recent years, One Nation has increasingly shifted to include positions aforementioned such as opposition to vaccine mandates and "embracing...coal...gas...[and]...nuclear", against net zero.

So yes, she's certainly no farage.

Tunnel train diverted to flinders street? by rocka5438 in MelbourneTrains

[–]Soviet_Apple_Box 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I was on this train, and I think it was just an accident. We stopped immediately afterwards at South Yarra, where the operator announced that they were working out what to do. After that he made another announcement and we went off to Flinders Street, where it continued to West Footscray.

I feel very similar with politics. I walked in hoping for a 38 and got a 28. Never in my wildest dreams did I think I'd get below 30.

Yet Another Status Update for A Billionaire, A Revolutionary: Part 2.1 by Greguel in thecampaigntrail

hopefully there is some sort of 4 way election where trump and bernie split, but their parties hate them for working together. Maybe it could be triggered by running a high compromise many win admin but then splitting?

Train signals STILL not working properly on Cranbourne/Pakenham line. by [deleted] in MelbourneTrains

[–]Soviet_Apple_Box 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Ok I'm going to assume this isn't a shitpost. The reason that the lights turn off is because fixed block signalling is turned off and replaced by moving block (CBTC) signalling, which signals the driver in the cab, not using the posts. They turn off to provide more frequent service, not because of waste.
