Former NSW Premier Barry OโFarrell resigned as heโd โforgotโ to declare an expensive bottle of wine.
Federal Labor minister Mick Young waa forced to stand down in 1984 as he didnโt declare a Paddington bear in his luggage thru customs.
Hanson is gifted a new plane and $2M cash from a billionaire and the media thinks itโs a blow up over nothing?
@BenDempsey18@Ken947619328487@briantylercohen You would rather prevent 10 citizens from voting than allow one non-citizen to vote, even though there's no credible evidence of meaningful numbers of such votes. If that's not the intent, it's still the 100% predictable result. Want free and fair elections? Ban gerrymandering.
@BenDempsey18@Ken947619328487@briantylercohen And yet the right can only find evidence of truly trivial levels of fraud, almost invariably by right-wingers. Are those on the left just better at it?
@BenDempsey18@Ken947619328487@briantylercohen You don't think it's fraudulent to disenfranchise citizens you think might vote against you? Because that's what the SAVE Act is designed to do.
@BenDempsey18@Ken947619328487@briantylercohen So you accept that you have no idea whether there has ever been enough fraud to change the result of an election, and your solution is to disenfranchise a possibly small but certainly significant % of your citizens. The gymnastics are impressive!
@BenDempsey18@Ken947619328487@briantylercohen So what provisions of the SAVE Act make it easy/cheap to get those documents? If there aren't any, its goal is not election integrity, it's stopping the "wrong" citizens from voting.
@BenDempsey18@Ken947619328487@briantylercohen So, what percentage of eligible voters (disproportionately poor and/or female voters) are you happy to disenfranchise to achieve this? Do you really think it will make your election results more credible?
@BenDempsey18@Ken947619328487@briantylercohen You've never changed your name, never had to flee a natural disaster or a violent relationship, never been homeless? But you're quite happy to make voting harder for citizens, despite there being no evidence of non-citizens voting in numbers large enough to change a result.
@TroyMoseley8@OccupyDemocrats The world laughs...at Trump and his pathetic cult. Unfortunately the man who should be in a secure ward has access to nuclear codes.
@AWRHawkins Exactly how does carrying a handgun for "self defense" help when a rando with a high powered rifle starts shooting? Or any other time, really, unless you're planning to shoot anyone who makes you feel "unsafe"?
@Lead_Flinger @GeoRebekah You first.
Seriously, we define freedom very differently from those US citizens who rant about the need for guns to resist government tyranny, and when you elect a tyrant (wannabe, at least) sit on their hands.
@DonaldTrumpnq Demonstrating once again the contempt Trump and his cultists have for your constitution and the rule of law. Members of the armed forces are OBLIGED to disobey ILLEGAL orders, and the makers of that video reminded them.
@drdanchoi Where did you get the idea that medical professionals work under "compulsion" in countries with universal health care? And they don't have to waste time arguing with insurance clerks (or employ people to do that for them).
@AmyRemeikis If youโre under 45, you have no experience of how effective the nationwide, not-for-profit, client-focused, one stop shop Commonwealth Employment Service was. Set up after WW2, it functioned effectively until John Howard shut it down for private sector mates in 1996. #auspol
