@brucemillington Good luck, and enjoy Bruce! It's one hell of a feeling to be in a European Final supporting the 'Non Elite' clubs that we do (Although it all went downhill after for us! ๐).. Here's to a CPFC trophy lift tonight! ๐ค๐๐
Too on point not to share. This is great, but too bad the Orange Felonโs enablers wonโt let him see it.
This Australian's reply to #Trump's rant about โNATO not being there for Americaโ is perfect.
"Mate. You run a country with 600,000 homeless people sleeping on the street tonight. A country where 40% of adults can't cover a $400 emergency without borrowing money. A country where insulin costs more than a car payment and people are rationing it to survive. A country where medical debt is the number 1 cause of bankruptcy. A country where women are dying in hospital car parks because doctors are too scared of abortion laws to treat a miscarriage.
You lock up more of your own citizens than any nation on earth. More than China. More than Russia. More than North Korea. The land of the free has 2 million people in cages, and a quarter of them haven't even been convicted of anything. They're just too poor to make bail.
Your life expectancy is going backwards. You're the only developed nation where that's happening. Your infant mortality rate is worse than Cuba's. Your kids do active shooter drills between maths and English while you sell the gunmaker's stock to your mates.
Your minimum wage hasn't moved in 15 years. You've got teachers working 2 jobs and veterans sleeping under bridges and you just spent a trillion dollars flattening a country that didn't attack you.
And youโve got a convicted felon, adjudicating raping, paedophile protecting, porn star shagging insurrectionist running the biggest dumpster fire war campaign since the Taliban thanked you very much for losing again.
And you're calling Greenland poorly run?
Greenland has universal healthcare. Free education. One of the lowest incarceration rates in the world. Nobody goes bankrupt there because they got sick. Nobody dies in a waiting room because their insurance said no.
'NATO wasn't there when we needed them." When exactly was that, champ? September 11? Because NATO invoked Article 5 for the first and only time in history FOR YOU. Soldiers from dozens of countries deployed, fought, bled, and died in Afghanistan FOR YOU. Australia wasn't even in NATO and we still showed up. For 20 years.
And you pulled out at 2am without telling anyone and left them to deal with the mess.
So maybe before you start calling other countries poorly run, have a look at your own backyard, you spray-tanned aluminium siding salesman. The only thing poorly run in this picture is your f----- mouth."

Happy New Year! A new series of @WILTY_TV starts this evening. Do please consider watching if you think it might be your sort of thing. Tonight's guests are photographed below.
Waiting for the next great read is a frustrating experience. Just the hope that @Beathhigh@MarkBillingham or @emmasauthor has something out soon keeps me going :)
Just finished 'Last Seen', the latest #Coupland book by @emmasauthor, another fantastic read. If you are a fan of crime fiction, this is a must read collection, 10 books with hopefully more to come! ๐๐๐
