An odd mix of views and ideas. They are all my own.

Just completed Red Side Story (follow up to Shades of Grey) by @jasperfforde . Not normally one to “hope” for any sort of ending. After Shades of Grey ended with such a shock it was very good to turn the last page with a smile on my face. Bring on book 3.

So @CricketAus is a 3 hour one day game really what you think people want to see? There was enough time for a T20 game in CBR after that frankly disappointing game. Many people arrived to see 2 overs of “world class cricket” after work. #whatajoke #AUSvWI

@timminchin thank you for tonight at Llewellyn Hall. I hope there was someone behind that curtain to give you a hug. We all felt it and there was not a dry eye in house.

Great to see my union elections having a real choice.

“Private rentals do not ‘trickle down’ and become more affordable, but social housing has benefits that trickle up to all Australians.”

My remarks on the housing crisis today at the @PressClubAust

[Simon Butt @351SJB]

@BaconSupanova Agreed

@NRL But it finals, can’t he serve it at the start of next year

@AdamBandt Clear difference between leadership styles.

So the @actgovernment supports @seechangecbr with a ebike loan service. Got this for two weeks. If a 196cm mid 50’s bloke whose is closer to 140kgs than he should be can try something new. Anyone can. 1st ride from Downer to Gungahlin went well.

@Sonja_Hood As @HawthornFC member, I love this

[Simon Butt @351SJB]

@newscomauHQ Was it a lockdown? Did she lie about it? Seriously, who cares if a leader relaxed. Probably simply enjoying a night out. Id rather that than someone who bottles everything up.

[Simon Butt @351SJB]

Did James Tamou just say what most @nrl fans have been thinking all year about the standard of referring? Me thinks he will be having a spell for a few weeks.

[Simon Butt @351SJB]

@MiraSorvino It does however provide you with an unquestionable desire to be better. To never let them down.

This is just fantastic.

Hugh Grant tweeted a request at activists protesting outside Westminster to play the Benny Hill theme on their loudspeakers; when they did it became the soundtrack for street interviews with leading Tories trying explain the situation to the British people

[Simon Butt @351SJB]

@BaconSupanova No, just NO. Blasphemy my friend. It also includes the best ever soundtrack. Next you will say Starship Troupers is a bad film.

@ElizabethKamel Blinker fluid is very expensive. Only to be used on special occasions. #kenbehrens

Someone at @AusElectoralCom had a double espresso yesterday morning.

@ljd216 Due to the Westminster System we now have a Prime Minister who was appointed based on his ability to command support in the House.

This system is around 600 years old, a little odd you haven’t heard of it.
