Just a bloke. Possibly a muppet. Occasionally tweets about tonic water.

Observation - many more football tourists than Mofo tourists at Salamanca this morning.

@IanHanke Indeed - but that doesn’t make the current response wrong any more than it makes previous responses right. It’s straight up misogyny no matter how you look at it. Political expedience has created One Nation - it sure as hell won’t send it back where it belongs.

@shannon_wells “Ex-embattled”?

[Andrew Gregson @agregson4]

@frogfarmer1 @ABCmediawatch @ABCaustralia Nah, I’ll pull you up on the one. Media for politicians must be a two-way street in a functioning democracy. ON would squeal loudly if the ABC denied them any coverage.

@shannon_wells Oh, come on - the three-meals-a-day toasted sandwich has ne’er passed your lips?

[Andrew Gregson @agregson4]

@shannon_wells But, Sharon, how will you receive 2 day old recycled “breaking” stories now?

[Andrew Gregson @agregson4]

@AskPayPal it seems you’ve just about made it impossible to talk to you about being locked out of my account. How do I find a person?

@FC_Tasmania Cheering from 700 miles off Kenya in the Indian Ocean. Go Devils!

Two announcements this week (opening up of blood donors and international contractor bidding to build Tasmanian stadium) have proven two things;

There are still lots of racist bigots getting about.

@babiak I think he’d like it.

@AdamShurey @CalibreFn @minnamyself @AlboMP @AustralianLabor Not sure why you’d want to promulgate this, Adam - but that is simply not the case. Banks can - and will - continue to charge fees. The changes from the RBA is that businesses will no longer be able to separately surcharge. They will have to include it in pricing - so all go up.

[Andrew Gregson @agregson4]

@polley_helen “Will no longer pay.”

Why? Did you ban the surcharges - or simply shift them on to small businesses owners who will have to recoup by raising prices across the board

Sounds like you’ve done the banks work for them.

[Andrew Gregson @agregson4]

@CalibreFn @minnamyself @AlboMP @AustralianLabor Because, with respect, the merchant was recovering a fee (from the card user) charged by the bank. With this change, the merchant will have to pay the fee without being able to recover it from the user.

If Australia held 30 days of fuel supply, then every single litre sold in the last month was bought by the supplier at pre-Iran price. Yet it’s a cut in government revenue that we’re all fussed about, not the super profits of the oil companies?

[Andrew Gregson @agregson4]

@senbmckenzie With excise being a fixed component, there’s been no “extra” from a price rise (other than GST). What are your referring to as “extra”?

[Andrew Gregson @agregson4]

@AdamCleave Staying out of the politics, but entirely here for “wankpuffin”!

[Andrew Gregson @agregson4]

Searoad, the primary freight provider to/from Tasmania, just announced a fuel surcharge of 37.94%.

Sometimes it’s nice to at the other end of the world, but Tasmanian business is going to need your support, Australia. Perhaps swap imported products for Tasmanian made for a bit?

@babiak Todd? Is this you? Or is this AI Todd?
