@Peter_Fitz The United Australia Party ran out of puff early ‘40s and the Libs rose in its place. Ideally what should happen now is the Libs run out of puff and are replaced by whatever the teals and moderate Libs come up with so we have a viable centrist opposition (I speak as a Labor gal)
@lesstenny An extraordinarily unpleasant person. Building his wealth through residential property which is selfish and unproductive and then expecting - demanding that - the government maintains a tax system that best suits his wealth needs.
@gringo68@Trev__Says@senatorbabet So you think Babet isn’t thinking of men when he refers to head of the household? That’s a ha ha. (BTW, it’s ‘misogynistic’).
@Trev__Says@Ryan_Aus86@senatorbabet In effect it gives us two votes: one for the candidate we want and one against the candidate we really really don’t want. Suits me.
@PeteButtigieg@NancySinatra Civilised countries have independent electoral bodies that not only determine electorate boundaries, they count votes and declare result. Still, I guess if there was one in the US the trump government would “Supreme Court” it out of independence.
@OmegaFiveOG@SandyXiaotong@Ausbobsmit Apart from the *fact* (remember those?) that immigration is falling significantly, does each single migrant require a separate dwelling in your world?
@MSpringAuthor17@Peter_Fitz The so-called teals are what used to be moderate Liberals. Their image as independents is so important (or so they think) that they’d probably never do it but ideally they would form the core of a replacement party. They’d soon gain defectors- probably more than they imagine.
@AaronDodd You do realise boomers are up to 80 years old. Many are pensioners and of those that aren’t, only a small percentage are asset-rich enough to be affected by these laudable moves. So enough with the boomer shit.
@DailyPicTheme2 Kintsugi is the Japanese art of repairing broken pottery by highlighting the cracks with gold, silver or platinum powder. On the other hand, finding beauty in imperfection is wabi sabi.
@AU80_@MikeCarlton01@TysonBarker8 I looked closely. It was photographed/filmed and reported by a wide range of news outlets. It appears AI claims have become a convenient moral get out for people like you?
