Art Deco covers of Brazilian art magazine "Para Todos" from the 1920s by J. Carlos (1884-1950), a Brazilian cartoonist, illustrator and graphic designer.

@nickschadegg @0bungler Strikers refers to Adelaide’s proud history of trade union militancy, Scorchers to Perth’s unique heat, Heat to Brisbane’s unique heat, Hurricanes to Tasmania’s tropical cyclones

@ZeusGrobbelaar @FrankCastleMilk @LDKRZ and I agree with you, reread the thread, my point (not addressed at you) was that to a lesser degree Welsh also played this role (hence people like Lloyd George, Picton or Billy Hughes)

[🌿🍃🍂 @Patrickarchy]

@ZeusGrobbelaar @FrankCastleMilk @LDKRZ but to actually prove the claim being made you would need to name Indian Prime Ministers of the UK during the Empire (obviously there were none)

[🌿🍃🍂 @Patrickarchy]

@FrankCastleMilk @ZeusGrobbelaar @LDKRZ I’m not sure what you are saying, the Scottish Parliament didn’t exist until the 1990s. But by being PM of the UK, Welsh DLG lead the British Empire. Welsh held an incomparably higher level of privilege in the British Empire compared to South Asians

@Jo5yan @jocrugby @LDKRZ ascend to lead the British Empire? (David Lloyd George, Billy Hughes)

[🌿🍃🍂 @Patrickarchy]

@MarxistPikaJew @ZeusGrobbelaar @LDKRZ collaboration with the colonising power and leading it (David Lloyd George, Billy Hughes) are not comparable

[🌿🍃🍂 @Patrickarchy]

@Azkalibugan @LDKRZ Welsh didn’t just participate in colonial administration and perform labour, they ascended to its absolute peak (e.g., David Lloyd George, or Billy Hughes)

comparing that to the Indian experience of the British Empire makes no sense

@AvidCommentator another fascinating outcome is that this would be the first seat with a 2PP featuring neither the Coalition or Labor since at least World War 2

@2012JV17 @SandySev @alt_ccc @nikicaga Clinton simply said both sides had accepted with "reservations", not that one side had them within or outside the parameters: https://t.co/9wLhiqoKZ0

@Funky_Capybara @nikicaga Both sides accepted the Clinton Parameters in late Dec/early Jan 2001 and proceeded to the Taba talks, then Barak lost the election and Israel under Sharon pulled out of talks

[🌿🍃🍂 @Patrickarchy]

@Funky_Capybara @nikicaga the one that could have been achieved if Israel didn't pull of talks in Feb 2001? Sure, okay

[🌿🍃🍂 @Patrickarchy]

@Fwedpeng @nikicaga the Taba Summit never produces a map and was ended by Israel, not Palestine

[🌿🍃🍂 @Patrickarchy]

@Ishhashalom @nikicaga what was the 2001 and 2007 offer? Israel pulled put of the 2001 Taba Talks

[🌿🍃🍂 @Patrickarchy]

@alt_ccc @nikicaga the one that couldn’t proceed because Israel pulled out of talks once Sharon won the Feb 2001 election?

[🌿🍃🍂 @Patrickarchy]

@SandySev @alt_ccc @nikicaga Palestine accepted the Clinton Parameters in Jan 2001 a week after Israel

[🌿🍃🍂 @Patrickarchy]

@aaron_benj87286 @nikicaga accept both Israel and Palestine still accepted the Clinton Parameters even after the Second Intifada had started.

The actual death was Sharon winning the election in Feb 2001 and pulling Israel out of the Taba Talks

@Funky_Capybara @nikicaga the proposal Olmert made in secret, after announcing his resignation, while under investigation for corruption?

[🌿🍃🍂 @Patrickarchy]

@tastybits @nikicaga Olmert made this proposal in secret after already announcing his resignation, while under investigation for corruption. It wasn’t a real offer since he no authority to implement it.
