Just think, if we had an effective NACC it would be cranking up an investigation into Anus Taylor's role in the selling of water rights at a knock down price to a Cayman Island company he founded right about now.

Barbecues Galore going into administration highlights again that buying gift vouchers is one of the riskiest of purchases. Legislation is required to make stores selling such vouchers hold the funds in a separate trust account until vouchers are redeemed rather than mingled with general revenue.

Oh dear, news today that Sizzler restaurants are to be re-launched in Australia. There is a reason, a very good reason, why they went out of business the first time around. They were crap.

Touting that Taylor was a Rhodes Scholar means SFA. Abbott was one and he's just a political thug so reviled and incompetent his own party and electorate dumped him.

Australian media indulges in another circle jerk as the Liberals cut the throat of their leader (again). Whoever gets the job will only be a seat warmer. The serious contenders know they will not get back into power for at least two more election cycles and so are keeping their powder dry.

When the dust finally settles, Trump quietly decomposes and the dots are joined, we might indeed find out that pedophilia was one of the lesser crimes he committed.

Tonight at Albion Park (NSW) an operator of a mobile radar unit set up on the on-ramp of the M1 motorway. The area where motorists increase speed to merge with fast moving motorway traffic. Chaos as they kept slow then tried to merge into 100kph at 60 kph. I guess he had his quota to fill.

What a choice the Liberal Party faces! (For non-Aussies, the Liberal Party is a mob of Tories) Two proven duds standing for the leadership and only more duds standing on the sidelines and watching. True Liberals must be hoping a Steven Bradbury skates through the wreckage.

Every major player in Trump's regime has their counterpart in Hitler's Nazis. In Bondi's case it's Irma Grese.

Mediocre Minns claims that videos of police beating the shit out of already restrained protestors of Herzog's visit are 'out of context'. Sounds similar to fascist claims about the video of the murder of Alex Pretti.

If Anus Taylor becomes LOTO perhaps there will be a closer examination of his role in the Watergate Affair, selling Australian water rights cheaply to a Cayman Islands company he founded, and also an investigation into just how much government money has gone to businesses associated with his family.

China pays US$11 billion and gets an architectural and engineering masterpiece of an airport (Daixing) with 5 runways and rail, that may become the world's largest airport.
Australia pays AUD$11 billion and we get a 1970s style concrete shed in a paddock with a single runway.

The knackered NACC is spending its time and resources investigating its own integrity issues, especially those of its Albanese-picked Commissioner than it spends on the job it is supposed to be doing. Albanese's Machiavellian politics bite him on the arse again.

The Liberal/National Party Coalition is like just any dysfunctional marriage - presenting a united public face that all is rosy in the garden whilst hating each other's guts in private.

When the WH says the racist video was the work of a junior staffer they mean it was created by a junior staffer, shown to The Demented One who went 'yuk-yuk-yuk' and uploaded it as part of his deranged social media blitz. He didn't make it. He published it.

Renaming city dumps The 'Trump Dump' is one use of the term.
'Trump Dump' can also apply to a violent bowel evacuation following consuming a large fiery dish (UK readers - think 'phaal') and too much beer. The sort that splatters the porcelain and surrounds and needs two hours work to clean up.

After Bullshit Barbie trying to defend the racist video posted by The Demented One, it has been taken down and the WH is blaming it all on a junior staffer. Every time Bullshit Barbie stands in front of a camera with her crucifix around her neck she is mocking Christians.

Trump's attempts to have airports and railway stations named after him should be resisted at all costs. However, I fully support any Authority that names their city dump after him. The Trump Dump has a nice ring to it.

It's 3.45am and I have just baked the week's sourdough bread because as those in the know understand, sometimes with the ambient weather and temperature it is ready to be baked at inconvenient times depite the best planning. 😁

We are seeing signs that the US Congress is planning on taking the approach many Australians predicted. We will get SFA for the hundrends of billions of dollars we hand over for AUKUS but will be forced to hand over parts of the country for them to establish bases for their imperialism.

Hanging around Parliament like a bad smell while taking advantage of every single grant possible excepted, just what has Anus Taylor ever achieved for the people of Australia that would justify the LIberals making him Leader of the Opposition?
