As with all these stupid distractions, the response is "We're not talking about that. We're talking about marriage for same sex couples."

In a lot of cases it's insistent patients and GPs making the decision that "well, they'll just go somewhere else and they'll prescribe them and I'll lose a patient" No hard data on this, just observations from GP rotations at med school

IT might have been robbed of the top spot on the world’s most liveable list, but new research has confirmed life in Brisbane is actually far better than Melbourne. Brisbane has cemented itself as the nation’s lifestyle capital, with the city home to seven of the top 10 most liveable suburbs in Australia. Only St Kilda West was able to edge Brisbane suburbs out of the top five, with South Brisbane coming a close second, followed by Dutton Park, Spring Hill and Kangaroo Point. The suburbs were ranked based on ease of access to schools, parks, beaches and the CBD, by car or public transport. The findings were compiled by realestate.com.au using its own online trends and Australian Bureau of Statistics data. And the results speak for themselves. The Brisbane suburbs in the top five are all a 10 minute drive or less from the CBD, whereas it takes approximately 18 minutes by car to get to St Kilda. St Kilda West is 5km from Melbourne’s CBD, while South Brisbane is just 2km, and nearly 100 per cent of people living in both suburbs have easy access to schools. There’s no comparison when it comes to affordability either. The median house price in St Kilda West is $2.6 million, while it’s $1 million less in South Brisbane. REA Group chief economist Nerida Conisbee said it wasn’t surprising to see Brisbane dominating the most liveable list. “We’ve always known Brisbane does have so many amazing lifestyle elements to it, but this proves it,” she said. Ms Conisbee argued Melbourne was beginning to lose is livability appeal due to population growth and infrastructure bottlenecks. “The affordability element in Brisbane also really does come in to play,” she said. “You can buy a property for well under a million dollars and still get those lifestyle elements.” Last month, The Economist’s global livability report named Melbourne the world’s most liveable city for the seventh year in a row. Brisbane was 16th on the list. But demographer Mark McCrindle argues the report focuses too heavily on a city’s economy and not enough on natural amenities, climate and lifestyle. “Those aspects are where Brisbane really is ahead,” he said. “That’s why Melbourne did so well and Queensland didn’t.” Mr McCrindle said Queensland and Victoria were the only two states in the country experiencing positive net interstate migration. “That’s telling us affordability combined with lifestyle is a pretty powerful driver and Brisbane’s now starting to be recognised,” he said. Sarah Jones wouldn’t live anywhere else. The 29-year-old rents in Fortitude Valley and travels just five minutes by train to work in the city. “I really like the location,” she said. “There’s loads of stuff to do — restaurants and bars, the river walk, and I don’t have to drive very often.” She and her friend pay $470 a week to rent their brand new two-bedroom apartment. “It’s still pretty affordable to live this close to the city,” she said.

Are there actually parts of Fortitude Valley that don't smell like stale piss and meth, or are QLDers just so used to that they don't consider it when buying property?

So the discussion has started publically on how marriage equality will be brought in, in the worst possible way if it's under this government. Scott Morrison wants religious protections Also in the article, GetUp have made 300 000 phone calls, with only 19000 "meaningful conversations". Ouch.

Separate but equal has always been what they were aiming for, ever since it became clear to the functional ones that they weren't going to win any straight up and down votes in the long run.

"Meaningful conversation" is a term used in political volunteering and is quite rare because most people have generally made up their minds on most issues. It means you've had a conversation that lasted more than 30 seconds with a fence-sitter.

Thanks- that's comforting at least. It seemed really low but if it's actually good by phone bank standards that's better. I'm still worried this survey monkey debacle will be a lot closer than it should be, before the right wing try their best to detail the actual legislation.

When I lived in Brisbane for 18 months a decade ago I actually quite liked it. At the time rent was really reasonable and I had a room in a nice apartment in St Lucia with a city view and close access to quick ferries into the cbd.

Do you think that when the current government are finally laughed out of office, that their successors will bother going public about the comic book evil/ridiculous incompetence of the Minister for Immigration and Jackboots; or do you think they'll just let it all get buried while quietly rolling back some of the more insane elements of the present immigration policies so as not to get gangfucked by the right wing media?

starkebn posted:lol, you have more faith in LAB than me Historically speaking, they did it last time. Also, the offshore option is clearly economically, diplomatically, politically and logistically worse than the alternatives, and with mounting debt I would expect them to pursue a cheaper option. It's far more appealing to their base than raising taxes or cutting services. Which they can't anyway, because they're already trashed.
