"Pre-emptive, retaliatory, de-escalation action...NOT a war people NOT a war "
..thousands of bombs and 100's of dead children DO NOT a war make ..

As they have just elected this bloke as the leader - we can relax about the parental leave extension

This is hilarious.

Also, completely enraging.

We're spending $1 billion per day on war as millions of working people struggle to get by.

Meanwhile, America's ultra-rich have never been richer.

Meanwhile, back in this reality

and that is 1 minute, we have been going for 4 days ...just sayin

Matt Canavan ...the bloke who described the Intergovernmental Report into Climate Change (IPCC) in 2021, as "fear porn"

They are not ablest in their persecution - yet. I expect if they need the room for more children they will have to do something else with the disabled..

0 or -1 ?

I am sure its why we end up working in a job where we STOP the "chat" . It must be genetic - my son wants to be an anaesthetist too.

Are you someone who dislikes chat and just wants to do their highly repetitive thing. Do you find people trying to talk to you when you do not want to deeply, deeply irritating ? Can you put in a cannula? Have you thought about anaesthesia ? The NHS needs you. Email Raj LB.

Must have just watched "Love Actually"

SA Liberals to preference One Nation over ALP as Bernardi comments condemned South Australia's Liberal opposition will preference One Nation over Labor at the upcoming state election as parties condemn "outrageous" comments by One Nation's Cory Bernardi.

SA Libs have announced they’re preferencing One Nation ahead of Labor at the state election. Any dignity the Liberal Party had left is gone. One Nation isn’t preferencing Liberals but Liberals are preferencing One Nation. SHAME!

The Gillard years were a mess of unacceptable misogyny. I know One Nation probably chose David Farley to run in Farrer BECAUSE he is a vile misogynist (& probably a racist bigot too - like Hanson). One Nation are a stain on Australia and should be condemned (and not preferenced - shame on Liberals).

Or not

Why would you ever trust a man with a cravat ?

No - just your usual "Old White American Christofascist"..you know the ones who don't "love their enemies". A charming "Good ol' boy blend" of Christianity and fascism, endorsing violence, authoritarianism and the regeneration of society on the basis of the Bible and its teachings. Killing for God.
