Apparently so. And there is clearly a move on by the LNP to leverage this opportunity to save them from political irrelevancy. We know most Libs care of only one thing - power - children overboard told us that - so did "I don't hold a hose". So we shouldn't be surprised when they stoke this idiocy.

There's been a cultish movement that evolved after Port Arthur that mirrors the idiocy of the US gun argument that the gun laws were solely meant to stop us rising up against them. I've seen it emerge in fringe acquaintances for years. So they're now rabid about new laws and they're vocal.

I wonder if the Kennedy family will ask to have it's name removed?

The loss of public housing over the last 20 years has pushed the poorest into the wider rental market, pushing everyone up a notch to compete in a market outside their budgets. The market has had 20 yrs to solve this and failed. Time for govt to intervene.

Makes you wonder how many books are being sat on pending his departuee from office - rather than telling everyone now about what's actually going on behind closed doors.

For all the right's carry on about being out-bred, the perils of immigration, and wanting the plebs to have more babies, they do an amazing job of pushing policies that make it less and less attractive.

And a lot of weather data has commercial value used by primary industries and mining. Those services and models are increasingly monetised because ... govts insist our "services" make money.

Put him in a room of 13-15yos and watch him blow a piston.

Considering the french used to consume their domestic wine out of 10L plastic jugs, you'd think we'd be over the snobbery of bottles. I see they still sell their wine in casks in 3L, 5L and 10L varieties.

The US govt will have a seat on the board ... nope, nothing to see here is there?!!! Imagine Albo claiming a seat on the board of Atlassian - the LNP would be (rightfully) apoplectic. But watch them simp up to this contradiction like it's good medicine. Time to call for nationalisation of assets?

Australian indigeneous people call these tools a woomera - something they've used for thousands of years - their ability to boost the launch of a spear is why it became the name of our first missile test base in South Australia.

For someone who promised no more wars, he seems to be threatening a lot of war.

It's because this is their base and they need to cosplay their support or risk the thin margins they operate on. Same strategy RE his Croc outrage - spoke to a base who want to hunt crocs to validate their fragile manhoods.

Trump: She kept flaunting her productive wheat fields, reliable energy, vast tracts of land, all that access to the Black Sea, and voting in democratic governments - Ukraine was asking for it.

Odd how Trump's excuses all sound the same? Clearly Putin was just grabbing Ukraine by the pu$$y.

Like any illicit market, removal of a trafficer doesn't mean demand disappears - it merely creates space for a new player. So the question I'd be asking is, who is the new Epstein and why are they protecting them?

Interesting to see how this spin this. Many in the LNP won't even know who Tony is and while the rest might hold a grude, it's not like he's been out every year slagging them off, making him a small target - so to get up and say something, at this time, is quite the thing.

Considering he's already banned one of the countries who have qualified from entering - with 6 other potential qualifiers in the offing - I can't see how it could be staged in the US.

They are normalising this - I wonder who they'll come after next?

It must also be on selected goods because the US has a $18bn trade SURPLUS with Australia yet we're being hit with new tariff's because we don't need US beef but the US wants ours.
