The measure of a civilised society is governed by the way we treat the elderly , the young , the infirm and the weak ..the measure of mateship was once about others , not us .
Today's politics is about appealing to greed and self ..a short road with no long term ambition .#auspol

Georgina Downer, 2017: I believe penalty rates and the minimum wage should both be abolished, SA gets too much GST & renewable energy is a ‘fatwa on carbon’.
Georgina Downer, 2018: oh, I just said all that because I was working at the IPA.

Gilbert on SKY just said it again, "Calling for Bishop to be sacked going too far as she has been one of the Governments better performers"?

WHY? How has Bishop been 'good'? Why is there this narrative in media? I see no evidence her 'performance' has been anything but theatre?
