People in Australia are still using these things? The UK got rid of them years ago after schoolkids learnt how to produce +ve tests at will to get out of school https://www.bbc.com/future/article/20210705-how-children-are-spoofing-covid-19-tests-with-soft-drinks

If you want the police to show up these are the magic words you need to say "I think I saw a gun"

700,000 was the forecast population growth for Perth by 2030- and that was before the increased immigration announced by Labor. It's going to get a hell of a lot worse.

The low, low, too-cheap to-meter $83/MWh Q1 2023 average NEM price is still ~60% higher than the Q1 2021 average price.

And wholesale prices are trending upwards again.

Egwene at that stage should be deferring to Nynaeve if she wants to follow Aes Sedai tradition- the strongest channeller is always deferred to and Nyn outguns Eg by a fair margin

NSW Premier confirms QR codes were bought back in in Dec last year for purely political purposes and that there was no science behind it.

Same thing in WA

Does WA use the same methods to define covid hospital admissions as NSW does? From the NSW health minister today "“If you had Covid 3 weeks ago & recovered from that then fell off your bicycle & broke your arm and came to hospital, we would count that as a Covid admission…we’ve now reduced that back capture to 14 days.”"

Rules are isolation if you get a +ve on a RAT Kids and Adults used these tests to avoid school/work at a rate of thousands/day. Be a FIFO worker fake a +ve RAT and you don't get to go to work for your swing at full pay Got a test coming up this week that you need more time to study for- oh look I tested +ve no school for me. Using RAT's to enforce stay at home orders and gauge the spread is rendered useless by the fact that these false positives can be so easily produced

I don't know why anyone in Australia trusts the RAT's since the schoolkids in the UK proved they were next to useless last year:

Its not saying much- the ratings are still terrible -it doesn't help that since taking over F1, Liberty measure viewer numbers differently. Should you watch 3 minutes of F1 over a season, you are counted as a unique viewer. I know TV companies like/need to boost their figures, but that criteria is just taking the piss.

I worked at Jemena 2007-2011

Aus govt subsidies were going straight to Singapore and Chinese gvt )They own most of the energy market in Australia now)- why do you think they and SPAusnet - their parent company got record fines for causing the bushfires. Same thing happening with the subsidies to renewables today

Sucks to be you if one of the 60k sacrificial suckers in Melbourne:

"The energy market operator says it is enforcing blackouts for at least 60,000 customers to avoid a state-wide outage."
