I for one am shocked - absolutely shocked - that cattle are alive before they're killed. We live in dark times.

And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye

And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.
In response to questioning from Nationals senator John Williams, director of editorial policies, Alan Sunderland, was forced to defend the long-running children's news program, Behind The News, against allegations the program was sympathetic to terrorists.

John Faine was actually getting a bit emotional about all this poo poo this morning. I've heard him incredulous before, but he was actually cracking into morons in this society that don't have the basic brain power to discern editorial content from reporting content. He went on to explain extreme Islam is terrible and evil but there are Muslims in Australia living normal lives that deserve to be respected and accepted as regular citizens, then he waited for the texts from idiots and was no disappointed by the texts coming in, but deeply disappointed by their content.

An extremely depressing level of discourse rn.

Government lags on Defence security as world 'goes to hell', US ties should be strengthened: report By political reporter Alexandra Beech Posted about 4 hours ago

Politicians are taking up time squabbling about which electorate gets the most Defence-related jobs while the world is "going to hell", a new report by the Australian Strategic Policy Institute warns.

Key points:

Rising tensions on world stage call for more attention on challenges Australia could soon face
Report recommends strengthening the US alliance
Department of Foreign Affairs needs a funding boost, report suggests

The institute's Defence budget brief, released this morning, said things were largely on track when it came to Defence spending since the release of the Defence White Paper last year.<snip>

"Everyone's entitled to their point of view, but that's seriously a weird one."
Grog on why Labor changing the rules for managing tax affairs is a really good thing.

quote:

When you look at the 48 millionaires who paid no tax, one aspect really sticks out – they claimed a combined $20.2m in deductions for managing tax affairs. What the ALP is proposing to do is limit the amount you are able to claim for such a purpose at $3,000.

The reasoning is clear. The average amount spent by people managing their tax affairs in 2014-15 was just $378 and yet the millionaires who reduced their tax to zero paid an average of $1.1m.

The importance of having an accountant to get your taxable income down as opposed to, for example, charitable donations is highlighted by the fact that while the millionaires who avoided paying any tax in 2014-15 accounted for just 0.4% of all millionaires, they claimed 3% of the total donations made by millionaires but a staggering 20% of all money spent on tax affairs
