Pollster Mark Textor (on LinkedIn) explains some common political teams (see Alt Text for transcript) #auspol (h/t @crikey.com.au)
Mark Textor on LinkedIn — Political media terms explained: “Senior source” - Junior staffer I drink with. “Powerbroker” - Someone I met at a local branch. Generally under 21. “Strategist / source familiar with polling” - Never seen a real poll study in his or her life but watched The West Wing once. And … “Multiple sources” - another journo claims to have heard the same thing. “Well-placed source” - one junior staffer who would answer my call. “Close to the Prime Minister” - anyone who lives or works in Canberra. “Party divisions” - the same people who always hated each other still hate each other and will always hate each other.

I have a friend living in that seat, not really likely. The locals don’t believe in climate change and overwhelming voted no in the referendum

As a former RASigs officer (Reserve), I’m so happy to see this! I look forward to getting one.
ID: a gold coin at the centre of the image which has the words ‘Royal Australian Corps of Signals’ (RASigs) on the inside of the top of the coin. In the middle is the messenger god Hermes/Mercury with his caduceus staff (which comes from the corps badge). His foot is on a map of Australia and there’s a binary coded message as well. The corps field colours of light blue, darker blue, and green are in a horizontal stripe pattern.

During my 1.5 days of invigorated learning with Governance Foundations for NFP Directors by Australian Institute of Company Directors (I’m not being sarcastic, I mean it!), I’d been alerted to the ‘hidden architectural detail at 333 Collins St Melbourne.

Text reads: I don’t know who needs to hear Todd, but switched from buying coffee every day to making it at home 2 years ago and I’m still not a millionaire. The response reads: I have studied the habits of millionaires. While it is a good step to save money by making coffee at home, have you considered supplementing your income by committing massive fraud?
