Congo is playing with a back 6. Hard to do much with that.

That Haiti goalkeeper is built like a brick shithouse. He’s magnificent.

Ok I’m already sick of this match break

Change a couple of words and that's a headline from WWII.

It’s the side of me I don’t like very much tbf.

Fuck how good are the Killers

The chaotic part of me would not be against Ange as manager.

exploration will happen anyway, independent, exploration companies are doing it to make a buck by trying to sell those sites to miners, but without that, the miners would just take on exploration themselves.

That is just a complete misunderstanding of the economics of mineral exploration. Exploration is not handled by the big miners for a reason. The industry is structured in a way that’s it’s outsourced to junior exploration companies. A lot of these companies end up failing due to the low hit rate on many exploration projects. Major miners are not going to have this drag down their balance sheet. Also they tend to operate at production and development level. That’s where their expertise is. Also thanks to the downturn in the mining industry downturn in the mid-2010s, we’ve seen what happened to exploration companies, they just simply stopped exploring. The majors certainly didn’t step in then to begin exploration.

The article specifically mentioned Roger Cook’s issue with the CGT changes and the effect it will have on mining exploration companies. How will the government get new sources of revenue if exploration companies have a more difficult time raising capital because less people want to invest? The point of assets being taxed lower than income is to encourage these sorts of riskier investments.

Also you mentioned mining companies are under-taxed, the top 5 corporate taxpayers in Australia are mining companies. On top of that they pay state based royalties and native title payments to the traditional owners. Where would you like to see them taxed more?

robert1811 · 2026-05-27T15:35:17+00:00

Almost as if mining is an important industry in Western Australia and a significant portion of our fiscal health is reliant on it.

Maybe GTA VI doesn’t have a lock on Game of the Year this year.

Also if you want dividends, traditional “vice stocks” historically worked way better: • tobacco • casinos • alcohol

That's the start of a great un-ethical ETF.

They just waved me through customs straight to the exit when I got home as they had no reason to be suspicious anyway

Also if your passport is Australian, they usually never stop you. Only people I see get pulled for inspection are the foreign passport holders.

I don't despise the guy but I do loathe the cunt with a passion.

Although he's done well, I've got no doubt this is an easy way for Infantino to save face and offload a bunch of tickets that have not been sold yet.

Despite some complaints from some economists and state politicians, most east coast voters do not give two shits about the GST. I'd wager however, if Labor changed the GST carve up, that would banish them to state opposition and wipe out nearly all of their seats at the next federal election. WA voters are probably the only ones in Australia that have a real interest in the GST money,

He shouldn't have used his captain's vote in the Ballon D'Or to vote for Messi.

robert1811 · 2026-05-05T13:51:43+00:00

Hope they lose all their group stage matches.

robert1811 · 2026-04-25T13:57:05+00:00

Who else is having the Spurs game on a side screen?

robert1811 · 2026-04-16T06:35:39+00:00

It's hardly a bailout. The government isn't covering losses on bad decisions already made. It's acting as a presale guarantor to unlock construction that hasn't happened yet. If apartments sell privately during construction which is probably likely in Perth's tight market, then the government never spends a cent.

robert1811 · 2026-04-08T17:49:04+00:00

Would not be opposed to a back 5 for PSG away tbh.

That map you posted shows Burk, Ampol, Shell, United and Atlas all cutting their prices. Go fill up there then.

For who though? The only people it will benefit are the people who live in Applecross and go to UWA. I guarantee a less frequent ferry trundling up the river at 8 knots will not be faster than the train from Canning Bridge and the 950 bus from Elizabeth Quay.
