He is. I saw him walking down Burke Rd one day and hawk the grandest, most disgusting loogie right on the street and it made me want to vomit. This was while he was in peak Save Camberwell mode.

Everyone attacking the ability to re-hold a vote is out of line. If the rule didn't exist you'd have all sorts of stupid loving hijinks as MPs try to get people blocked or trick people into not attending. You can't just have a vote and go that's that when it's not representative and the representatives that weren't there want to be heard on the issue.

loving sucks that it's refugees, but it could just as easily be the other side in 2 years getting hosed over by Liberal dirty pool on the same topic.

I've seen him do this too! Out the back of the arts centre, it was massive.
Another time I saw him out there talking to himself but I figured he was doing actor stuff that time.

Watching the cricket, did enjoy the channel nine news ad that had a clip celebrating them infiltrating a drug dealer network. Wonder if that is in the same way their current affairs team infiltrated the child porn networks.

Actually nah, if it takes all MPs of every party having to attend every single vote I'd happily make them do it (barring sickness, grief etc.)

Half of them are incredibly slick and half of them are just random people shouting or being hilariously bad at dialog and look like they cost about a buck.

i doubt labor would be as susceptible to parliamentary ratfucking as the libs, because if there’s one thing the gillard minority government showed it’s that the alp has their parliamentary business locked down.

I haven't owned an antenna cable for my TV in well over a decade. It's just a barely used movie screen on the rare days when I pop in a blu-ray or something.

Seriously doubt the commercial stations are being honest with their advertisement space buyers about their viewership numbers.
