Solemn Sloth posted:The idea that councils are run by developers is frankly dumb. In Victorian cases where councils call in planning applications for a decision rather than leaving the decision delegated to the planning officers, the vast majority are to refuse a permit due to community opposition. Councils approving a development when officers recommended it be refused are vanishingly rare. https://www.crikey.com.au/2008/03/04/australias-dodgiest-local-councils-a-crikey-list/ http://www.smh.com.au/nsw/icac-finds-councils-at-high-risk-of-corruption-20100511-uuur.html Anidav posted:Newspoll: 52(-1)-48(+1) to Labor http://www.abc.net.au/news/2017-04-23/dutton-sticks-by-manus-shooting-account/8464994 "He was begging for it" The last minister who did this was Peter Reith and it ultimately led to his resignation and departure from parliament. Has Dutton been set up for this to end his miserable leadership run? I want to see if he actually gets canned for it. My money is on no. Bogan King posted:Australian and New Zealand Army Cucks Coles are trying to co-opt the ANZAC brand by running a charitable donation scheme this year. Donating for the benefit of veteran's and their families always makes me wonder what the gently caress our government and the Department of Veteran's affairs are doing for them. Support our troops yourselves you insufferable muppets.

I remember going to the Canberra memorial as a year 10 and the guide or whatever was a former sniper that had seen some poo poo. He showed us a map of Gallipoli and gave us a strategic talk on what happened. It was not celebratory or crowd pleasing. From memory he said the words "kill box" ten times at least and was a loving grim dude.

Cartoon posted:Sweet summer child. Who gives the planning officer's their guidlines? I don't know about other states, but councils in Victoria overwhelmingly lean NIMBY when departing from planning advice. I'm not trying to say they're good, but when they are bad it's more often due to pandering for votes or the most petty spiteful bullshit you can imagine than for bribes. Case in point: metropolitan council in Victoria, a greens and socialist majority get elected with housing affordability as their central campaign item. One of the first decisions they overrule planning officers on after being elected? Refusing a permit for a social housing program because poor people nearby may drop house prices.

Hobson's Bay has had massive issues with threats and intimidation of candidates for local council recently. The thought is that it's developers battling for council spots around Williamstown since there is a massive NIMBY movement out there and the amount of money in play is pretty staggering.

If that's a Simpson quote then I have a much stronger positive feelings towards him than I ever harbored with the primary school indoctrination I got about it.

So what's all this Simpson talk about?

That sounds dark as hell. And an excellent way to actually educate people about the horrors of war.

Dude McAwesome posted:That sounds dark as hell. And an excellent way to actually educate people about the horrors of war. It wasn't fun, but the guy was really informative and matter of fact. His whole thing was that we should remember this in an effort to avoid future gently caress ups and that there was nothing to celebrate in brutal death. Some smartarse in my class asked him whether he ever killed anyone and the guy looked at him for about five seconds and said "you don't want to have to kill anyone". Anyway now we can all get pissed and play two up while jerking our dicks about the birth of a nation.

I live in Williamstown; can confirm. For a while there was a sign out the front of the old Port Phillip Woollen Mills site (now being turned into apartments) proudly boasting that the prices were starting from $1.1 mil. They're building around 500 of them. Out of curiosity JBP, are you around Williamstown? I figured I was the only goon in the suburb.
