@alreadyfurious @KobieThatcher I had my old S9 on out of curiosity, with no sim, and got nothing.

@call_me_tomasso Damn. They should've changed the name AND their odious brand of news. Then again, they've always favoures half measures.

@onenationparty0 Bollocks. If you're going to lie to your supporters in an attempt to stoke their "righteous fury", choose better. Australia does NOT have the highest tax rates in the world. Anyone with half a brain can fact check and verify it for themselves ... oh, wait, I forgot. My bad.

@Gex99 @Theblackfemini3 Ha! I was wondering if that might happen

[Jane Abbott @JaneKAbbott]

@AlboMP So, just amused myself by reading half the comments. That's some vitriol you have there, people and I sure hope you're feeling better now. Yet, for all the crude mud-slinging, not one of you seems to have spotted the oddity on the AusAlert website. 😆😆 Anyone? I'll wait.

@AULaw24 @Parodyjeffx If the islands highlighted in red on the map in the original post are actually the ones targeted for "purchase" (and assuming the post is factual) then your reply is bullshit. All the islands are inhabited. No more than 5000 each, but they are occupied.

@RandaAFattah A cowardly and horrific decision. When a writers festival chooses not to support writers or their audiences, and instead bow to "the communities we seek to serve and engage", it spells dark times.
Solidarity!

[Jane Abbott @JaneKAbbott]

@Holly_Da 🤣🤣🤣🤣
*wipes eyes* I'm sorry, I'm still trying to get past your later reply on this post: "Yes, appalling language and rhetoric that has gone unchecked for 2 years."
Seriously, read the room.

@noplaceforsheep Following the disastrous collapse of the Bendigo WF last year, you'd think Adelaide might've learned a thing or two. But no. At least they were honest though, making clear the decision was made solely on behalf of "the communities we seek to serve and engage."
Pathetic & divisive

[Jane Abbott @JaneKAbbott]

@adelaidefest Nothing to do with public perception or grief at large. Rather, this clause in your statement pretty much sums up the reason behind your cowardly decision: "... the communities we seek to serve and engage". Pathetic.

@caitoz Love it! 😂

@AJEnglish Will that make America A Crimea?

@call_me_tomasso 🤣🤣

@NormalIslandNws Love it! 🤣 Keep 'em coming.

[Jane Abbott @JaneKAbbott]

@PawlowskiMario Also overly sweet and tastes like shit

[Jane Abbott @JaneKAbbott]

@MRobertsQLD It was leased for 99 years, not sold. Or the LNP lied at the time.

@IngrahamAngle @calleymeans Why choose Italy as a comparison? Population of <60m. If the US wants comparable health outcomes for its 350+m people it should be spending 6x what Italy spends. Just more propaganda to push Rep agenda. FFS.

@gardengirl125 What you have is an Ass dressed up and trotted out as America's saviour while being fed his lines by Shift(y) thugs who are on a power grab and don't give a shit about their deluded followers. I'd say you couldn't write it, except someone already has. CS Lewis. 'The Last Battle'.
