The whole Ben Roberts-Smith defo trial is the most hilarious self-own. Better even than the Christian Porter one! This one is truly unravelling like an episode of the Goon Show. Our very own Major Bloodnok.

Many real Australians (aborigines) dont speak english at home, its a 3rd or 4th language for them. They might well argue its more recently arrived australians who only speak english who have failed to integrate!
I met a newly arrived family in town last week, I was helping them sign up for NBN, got talking and found they had come from Iran. I talked about travel & food with them, they invited my family for a Persian dinner one night, I invited them over for coffee this morning....

Its really time that so called "journalists" like these be singled out and black banned from press conferences. They are a direct & real threat to democracy. Decent journalists, if there are any left, should be hammering the PMO about this.

Nearly, but Magellan was killed in the Philippines so he didnt make it all the way! Juan Sebastián Elcano replaced him and led the expedition home to Spain.

No one with any serious knowledge of telecommunications thinks mobile wireless is a solution for a national broadband network. It has a small part to play, thats it. Abbot was rightly ridiculed, for that and most everything else he ever said.

With the greatest of respect, you actually dont know what you are talking about. I work in the sector, I know the abilities and limitations of the various technologies and the infrastructure costs. Wireless wont replace fibre.
@dannolan
The stupidity of conflating vaccination with lockdown is astounding. The two are quite different and work together, along with border closures, masks, quarantine and personal spacing, to mitigate risk. Shows a total ignorance of the impacts of Long Covid on the vaxxed & at risk.
Hey

My happiness with arriving home is offset by the tragic news that my malu, (father), D. Gurruwiwi has passed. Arnhem Land & the world will mourn the loss of the Galpu clan leader, Yidaki master, husband to Dhopiya, father of many and an inspiration to all. Nharma yalala, malu.
So true,
@yaneerbaryam
was warning the world from the start that elimination was the only viable approach. Australia & most of the world ignored the area expert and made poor decisions that have cost countless lives, and tanked economies anyway.
@erfbeeass
There are almost no Baristas anyway, totally misused term. 99% are coffee machine operators who could learn the job in 10 minutes. No experience of operating a coffee machine should be irrelevant, if the applicant had used a TV, a toaster, or a microwave they can make a coffee.

One thing we can do to help is reframe the reactionary pejorative “political correctness” for what it really is, civility, respect, politeness.
@TrevorABranch
I think its such a dynamic field that its almost impossible to map, eg sensibly Israel has simply stopped all international arrivals as its clear it has spread from Southern Afirca to numerous countries already. Will change rapidly in the next few days until we know more about it
@TarragonKath
Yep, that and if we had a fit for purpose quarantine system. Those 2 simple & obvious failings, repeatedly pointed out to the Feds, led to every single case of Covid this year in Australia & is now responsible for the outbreak in NZ. We squandered successful elimination.
@swandane
I have found in life that when you make a really embarrassing and stupid mistake, you get most respect by owning it. You have a great opportunity here to do some self reflection, own your actions, apologise to anyone you have offended and be a real man. The choice is yours.
...It made me think about all those who decry multiculturalism, and what could possibly motivate them. Multiculturalism is one of the major things that makes Australia such a great place to live. ,,,,
@giteau_rugby
I am not sure that high income, sportsball celebrities whinging about the quarantine requirements of their home country in a global pandemic, is a great look. Just accept it as the price you pay for your lifestyle and be thankful your home country has eliminated Covid internally.
I will never cease to be amazed by how many people on

think its appropriate to monetise their research & analysis. Not a great look if you cant make enough from your supposed investing skills & you need to supplement with a substack etc.

I guess I dont know the names of the ships in the expidition that first circumnavigated the world! Typically Magellan gets the credit, although he didnt make it. Beside my pedantry the main point is that its centuries since the first "zero emissions" ship sailed around the world!
Unfortunately Sal has had a relapse of her Crohns, she is being medivacced to Darwin tomorrow for an MRI. She has been basically symptom & medicine free for 13 years since surgery that saved her life. (Osteomyelitis). A nervous few days until we find out the next steps.

My step Dad died last night, a wonderful man who met my mum when she was in her 50's & thought she would be single for the rest of her life. He was witty, urbane, clever and a loving partner. Vale Bob Matches. So happy we spent time with him in January.
@BroHilderchump
Yes, because it is an increased risk across vulnerable parts of society. Also they will still want to be treated in our public health service.
Those interest rate rises are starting to effect the primary economic indicator in Australia - Landcruiser prices.
This would have been wun fiddy a few months ago.
At the end of year 11 Kai won the Lynne Walker Literature Prize at school, this is the piece that won him the prize. The words in italics are from a poem that Djawa (Timmy) Burrrawanga's mother in law wrote when he was born, about him. My proudest moment as a father.

You dont have a great track record on this issue, or a number of others where you took the pieces of silver and sold us out. I will bet its either watered down so it achieves nothing, or you sell out again and drop it.
...So why is it there is a sub set of people so terrified of other cultures and multi culturalism? I dont think they are in the main, evil. I suspect most racists, bigots and xenophobes are simply insecure, fearful, ignorant. They are terrified of ghosts, ideas that are phantoms,
Congratulations to Sal, the woman who completes me, my love, my lover, my reason, my compass, my balance, my best friend and my partner - happy 18th wedding anniversary dear. 18 years of putting up with me deserves a special prize!
Rather than arguing with these poor people on twitter, which is pointless because reason wont overcome fear, just outwardly interact across culture, race and other social sub-sets and help appease their terror of diversity!
Just got Sal's DNA results back, Low risk, so no chemo, I will set off about 5am tomorrow and drive to Darwin, she will fly over Saturday, radiation therapy starts Monday, we are there for 4 weeks. Once again, best result possible in the circumstances!! Bubbly tonite!
2021 has been a good year for us, Sal is healthy, Kai is finished school, working full time as a carpentry apprentice, my company continues to allow me to have the perfect life balance, we are sitting on the last day of the year on our lovely new yacht...

How about just repealing the ridiculous and unnecessary harvesting of data required by previous LNP governments for political ends? This is the root cause of the issue, if the data had not been collected then it couldn't have been taken.

Every misstep with dealing with this pandemic in Australia is the direct outcome of Federal Government incompetency. There is a significant lesson to be learnt from this for much more than just pandemics.
Sal's Mum just passed, she went back into hospital yesterday, Sal spoke to her last night, she didn't wake up this morning and passed away in her sleep just now. So she got her wish to stay at home as long as possible. Rest in peace , Mahni Dugan.

Ask him about the genocidal holocaust Israel is waging on Palestinians. Ironic that the victims have become the perpetrators
The wrong and damaging decision was the original one by the Morrison government, and you know the Machiavellian political reasons for that.

Some of the people I most strongly disagree with on certain topics, are the ones that I learn most from about other topics. Echo chambers and confirmation bias are the result of shutting out contrarian views.
My beautiful, intelligent, caring, tolerant, wife celebrates her 55th b'day today. She has had a tough couple of years, losing both her parents & beating breast cancer - and took it all in her stride. My rock, my anchor, my love. Hope you have a wonderful year my dear.
I just don’t understand why an investor would sell a business they own part of on a day like today. What has changed to make you believe it’s not worth owning today?? Weird.
So boomer wife flew to D-Town for Bass on the Grass, zoomer son drove the track to get there. Boomer wife now has the plague, zoomer son got home 3am, announces he feels unwell too. I have fled the scene, went shopping, filled the tinny up & am on the yacht until plague clears.

No, 5G will not make fibre obsolete. There is no way a 5G network could economically replace the NBN. It has a small part to play in the national network, thats it.
