Do editors still pull the "Murdock has never told me what to write" rhetoric whilst every publication seems to reach the same independent editorial conclusion?

Very upset about those uppity gays feeling like they should have equal rights and what is clearly a nation wide campaign of corporate bullying attempting social engineering against the wishes of the majority. Also, he thinks this is the first time that corporate voices have been raised in this manner.

There is always crime. ----------------------- Budget needs 1M jobs in 5 years to make the numbers work. Budget predictions say that there will be 145K jobs less than that. Maybe that whole  LABAH BUGIT is trying to play the long game of 'their numbers never work'.edit: misread what was being said. It's only an Abbott promise that has 1M jobs needed 5 years out.

Cutting off the desperate from their means of survival is going to do only one thing - increase theft and other forms of crime. Check and update your home security accordingly folks

Lid posted:What was the decision made? I know this was a few pages ago but if you want NSW internal Greens drama here u go: NSW has a committee called the Parliamentary Liaison Committee. It basically exists to ensure the MPs remain accountable to the party. It meets once a month, or more often if a) the party room can't reach consensus on a position or b) there is an interpersonal issue between MPs or members of their staff. For literally fifteen years there's been a poo poo-fight about whether the MPs have a vote on the PLC, and whether the PLC has the power to direct their vote in Parliament. Two MPs in particular, Jeremy Buckingham and Justin Field, have been contemptuous of both the PLC and the idea that the party can and should be able to tell them what to do for years. Justin in particular openly mocks the concept that the party can direct him and that "his accountability to the party is preselection." Recall that in NSW upper house members are preselected every eight years. Any effort to resolve this deadlock has been stonewalled by right-wing shitbags - Cate Faehrmann before Jeremy and Justin, Ian Cohen before her. It has been referred to the State Council roughly a dozen times and they finally got around to it last weekend, where the State Council voted 80/20 that the MPs do have a vote, but their combined vote will never be worth more than twice the vote of the rank and file reps on the PLC. With six reps and eight MPs, that means each rep is now worth roughly 3 votes. Justin, Jeremy, Dawn Walker (the one who stole Richmond and Grayndler Federal campaign data for her preselection campaign) and Tamara Smith (MP for Ballina, lies about meeting stakeholders as part of her portfolio duties) have declared that they believe weighted votes are unconstitutional, that they reject the decision of the State Council (the highest decision-making body of the Greens NSW) and they will be withdrawing from participation in the PLC indefinitely. They've essentially declared themselves to be independents.

Also worth noting 74% of the State Council diagreed with MPs having a vote at all, but decisions need 75% supermajority in the Greens to happen

How do you make them accountable though? All I can see is threat of disendorsing them, and that's poo poo for the party.
