My immediate reaction to any poll showing the Libs closing is wtf Australia what is wrong with you. My second reaction is relief. No way that Abbott can win re-election, but if he sits higher in the polls then the Libs will find it harder to replace him, and Bishop or Turnbull would be much harder to beat at the federal election.

They're using liberals 2014 midyear lol.Chris Bowen posted:The previous policy that this document refers to is not the policy of the previous Labor government. The previous policy in this document is from the mid year economic forecast (Myefo) which the treasurer himself brought down, including $14bn of extra spending, including $9bn to the Reserve Bank, the doubling of the deficit.

So uh anyone else watched the new friendlyjordies? It's talking about a method of farming that offers a really simple answer to land turning to desert, proven techniques to reverse it which would also make a massive impact on climate change -- to the point where it could bring atmospheric CO2 levels back to pre-industrial levels while increasing food production. Jordies for ref https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=durydz6Fh9M Here's the ted talk he's referencing https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vpTHi7O66pI Having watched both I'm just kinda marinating at the moment and trying to find out more info.

This is pretty astounding stuff. And it's got evidence 40 years old! Holy poo poo. I wonder what it'd mean for so much of Australia.

It's junk, the guy is the agricultural equivalent of an activated almond. If running sheep could green the desert we'd have green deserts by now. [EDIT: After reading a bit more about this it doesn't seem entirely settled and a lot more research is required before it will be. I remain skeptical though, as if it genuinely worked there is so much money to be made it seems unthinkable that it wouldn't have been adopted on a massive scale by now.] open24hours fucked around with this message at 04:22 on Mar 5, 2015 |

http://www.abc.net.au/news/2015-03-05/bali-nine-executions-not-this-week-indonesian-president/6281690 Ms Bishop had proposed to repatriate three convicted Indonesian drug criminals in return for the lives of the two men. It is understood Indonesia did not accept the offer during a tense phone call on Tuesday between Ms Bishop and her Indonesian counterpart.

I thought his point was that just running herds over them didn't work but you actually had to run herds over them in a specific way? Note: I know nothing about agriculture and have no ability to judge the worth/worthlessness of this. So maybe I totally misunderstood.

That's unfair, Lion Helm didn't get in just because people mistook the LDP for the Liberals. He was also first on the ballot and has spent years doing preference deals with other microparties.

hooman posted:I thought his point was that just running herds over them didn't work but you actually had to run herds over them in a specific way? Yep. The thing I don't get is how you actually start to reestablish the grasslands in the first place.  I think I might buy his 2013 book, it seems really loving weird but kind of cool. Not sure why he's keen on cattle tho tbh, since modern breeds are still terrible in terms of carbon output biologically. Though that's probably bc of diet also. I'd be more likely to run sheep, alpaca and goats bc of their meat, dairy and fibre and lower carbon footprint, but I think we already knew that  Permaculture is also p great for drought prone areas, hugelkultur in particular. Chuck a hugelkultur bed in every backyard, encourage cereal farmers to rotate crops instead of forcing them to destroy their land by producing unfeasible yields of the same poo poo in the same fields year on year, etc Fruity Gordo fucked around with this message at 05:27 on Mar 5, 2015 |

This is for possession of more than 12 grams. Let's keep this bandwagon rollin' Police Officer assaults driver, rams vehicle, accuses the person he assaulted of being the person who rammed the car in a false report, resulting in false imprisonment. Also pressures a junior officer into backing his false report. So what sentence does the flagrant abuse of granted power carry? A strict jail sentence to "set an example" that corrupt behavior in our police force won't be tolerated? Don't be silly. Fined $7000. Suspended sentence. http://www.theage.com.au/victoria/former-senior-police-officer-who-attacked-driver-has-shamed-the-force-20150305-13vym4.html
