Kath Rowley “If I could just finish my answer?”🙄 #Estimates

Ahhh streetfood in Dotonbori! The memories. Bliss.

No surprises there!

Australia needs another gun amnesty.

What has the ECHR ever done for us?

Quite a lot actually, and we wrote it too.

The myth of 'social cohesion' - do as they say, not as they do - The Shot There’s an established principle in law: he who comes looking for equity must come with clean hands. The clean hands...

Ronnie Salt: “If there’s a phrase that deserves to be flushed into sewer pipes of political history. It’s an insufferable, hectoring, holier-than-thou pair of words that appear to have infiltrated the speeches of many of our major leaders.”

He’s setting himself up to take over when he gets the numbers.

It is indeed! L

It depends. I find dates/flights I’m interested in and then request Google updates to my email whenever the price changes. I buy when it seems they are at their lowest.

Oooohh I will look forward to that.

Unfortunately, the media will have been so corrupted by then, we will never know. But we can only hope that they will soon realise he has outlived his usefulness…

I was offered a free month on Apple today. Going to wait until it has landed and then binge big time. One of my top ten shows ever.

Pretty easy really. The orange fiend wants the world to turn fascist. Or am I being the one who is too simplistic?

My husband just said same thing.

Perfectly said,,,,

You’re being played – your part in the culture wars - The Shot When Zack de la Rocha told you to rage against the machine, he didn’t mean take it literally. Agitprop. Fury bait. Yes, you feed it too.

President Stubb on the UN:

No single state should have a veto power.If a member of the Security Council violates the UN Charter,its voting rights should be suspended.I believe that these changes at the top of the UN are necessary in order to maintain the UN's central role in international relations

Hastie's little playbook needs be called out by everyone

And rejected

Migrants are NOT here grabbing your jobs and houses

They're building your new house, starting new businesses, bringing in skilled work we don't have in Australia to cover shortages

Yep whooping cough is on top of the list. Already had shingrix so that one is covered. I'm also of the view of 'give me everything you can throw at me'.

With a grandchild coming in February, we have just been discussing what vaccines we should get. Developing quite a list for discussion with our GP. Will add this.

After 2 years and 100s of thousands (perhaps millions) dead, and a vastly different landscape involving a multitude of different players since the beginning of the war, did everyone in 1916 have to keep saying ‘but you killed Archduke Ferdinand’? #7.30Report #FreeGaza

A girlfriend and I were just saying that today as we left the cinema and wandered to a restaurant for lunch.

The opening scene was fabulous and, yes, so realistic. They must have had such fun making it.
