Jesmond. The police were giving talks to community groups at Newcastle City Council libraries and used the opportunity to point out you don't have to call the cops every time you see eight black people together.

So is Dutton calling for the deportation for the Vietnamese? I'm having difficulty following the xenophobia.

Congrats you thought critically about this statement instead of accepting that we finally have a government that is addressing the cause of our woes: forigners. This puts you outside the target audience.

Would Tampa have happened, would children overboard have happened, if Fraiser hadn't been so daft? You tell me. You tell me.

Doctor Spaceman: Jul 6, 2010; "Everyone's entitled to their point of view, but that's seriously a weird one."

Lyons died in office (in mid-1935), and Page (Country Party) took over while the UAP (think proto-Liberals) elected a new leader. When the UAP chose Ming he forced Page out and took over as PM.

Curtin died in office (in mid-1945) and Forde took over until the party chose Chifley a few weeks later.

MysticalMachineGun posted:

There was absolutely that too; Ming lost the confidence of his party and they appointed Hughes as leader, except Hughes was loving ancient (and also Billy "loving" Hughes) and so the Country Party got their guy (Fadden) in as PM.

Then Fadden lost control of the hung parliament a few months later and the GG let Curtin take over.

This was over the space of about 6 months in late 1941.

Cartoon: Jun 20, 2008; poop

Kicking Menzies to the curb was one of the last times the Australian Polity showed any sense what so ever.

Turdball was banging on about our pressing need to increase productivity and the way to do it is to slash company tax. The new paradigm Ladies and Gentlemen : To fix <anything> Slash Taxes. Peter Dutton a fiasco? SLASH TAXES! Erectile dysfunction? SLASH TAXES! Next door neighbour flunks the Dulux colour chart test? SLASH TAXES! Thanks for taking the lead here Mr Trump!

In the post Trump world it is remarkable Asian's have gone from being "one of the good ones" to people no longer pretending it matters, so right back to gently caress off you're fulling us. I expect a Bill Leak cartoon shortly that is not at all racist.

Ok cool, they have put my dipshit local Federal representative as the head of the committee to look into how young immigrants are getting into gangs.

Dutton, the lnp in general actually uses a lot of thought terminating cliches

quote:

“If there is a particular problem that people can point to within a certain community, and we’re talking about a significant number of people in that community who are doing the wrong thing, then clearly mistakes have been made in the past,” he said.

“The reality is that Malcolm Fraser did make mistakes in bringing some people in in the 1970s and we’re seeing that today. We need to be honest in having that discussion.”
