My average for this month is fantastic given I started the month with 4 x 8s. I missed three days travelling but somehow managed to miss yesterday (too hot???). #WQuers

When I saw the link that read "'Dirty, disgusting money': The heiress giving away her entire fortune" I somehow knew it wasn't about Gina Rinehart ... 😂

'Dirty, disgusting money': The heiress giving away her entire fortune
When Marlene Engelhorn inherited tens of millions of dollars from her grandma, she felt she had two choices: do something about it, or confirm she was "full of sh*t".

I have to say there's a striking similarity between the Liberal Party and the English cricket team.

- Both go into a competition with a firm policy.
- Both get annihilated.
- Both deny it is their fault.
- Both go into the next contest against the same opponent with the same policy.

2 things stand out to me. The Libs spent years cutting funding to TAFE requiring more skilled immigrants and now want to cut that back as well. The second thing is Universities have become commercial businesses now. Reducing international students will mean sourcing funds from elsewhere.

Michael Voss said about Charlie Curnow "... he'll be at Carlton next year ... he's got 4 years to run on a contract."

The same club has delisted 2 contracted players. Much hypocrisy I would think. #afl #Carlton

It's good to see the Queensland Government is following the time-honoured LNP tradition of openness and transparency by appointing a Party powerbroker to a plum job, replacing a former Police Commissioner only 1/3 the way through her tenure. Corruption? #auspol #polqld

Editorial: A decade ago, it would have been unthinkable for a man who led the country to go and shill for a foreign military. Decency and clearance would have restrained it. AUKUS is less a security partnership and more a one-man superannuation scheme. satpa.pe/2kRfq9r
The one-man super scheme
Of all the things Scott Morrison does not understand, and the list is long and often embarrassing, somewhat in the shape of his prime ministership, China would rate very close to the top.

Dan Tehan is an arrogant twat. The Liberals never put out proper costings for the nuclear plants, refused to give a realistic timeline nor outline the costs to continue with the out-of-date coal fired plants. Also suggesting that we get our thoughts on nuclear plants from The Simpsons is outlandish.

This would rank as one of the worst decisions the AFL have made, which is saying something. Australia's richest club has created their problems with poor list decisions and are now being rewarded for their incompetence. #AFL

I have often said the AFL Player Ratings are a bit of a farce as it is worked out on the players' stats and does not take into account the overall effect the player has on the game. The Grand FInal is a case in point. There is no way Harris Andrews was the 22nd best player on the field. #AFL
