Oh come on. Surely most people are disgusted by these allegations.

Most of the people who voted for Moore didn't believe the allegations.

It's hardly unprecedented, given white women voted for Trump even after the Access Hollywood tape, and vote for <generic Republican> despite the GOP's general view on women.

Also it's not like the concept of voting against your interests is unknown in Australia.

Vegemite paddle pop is a debasement of Australian culture. Any true Aussie would hate it and loudly so.

Unless the ice cream filling replaced all sugar with yet more salt. And it was dusted with slightly burned toast crumbs.

That is brilliant and I wish more states and federal bodies would get on with clamping down. The lobby must be incredibly powerful, and since they're gulping money out of so many pockets it's impossible for them not to be.

Gambling is at record Fukt levels at the moment, particularly the visibility and impunity with which they advertise. I am pretty sure every other even self regulated advertised code has something about the line between advertising and content/programming and there are shitloads of gambling ads playing on the "news desk" code during news broadcasts. And the rise of smart phone apps ... gently caress me ... Can't play Hotline Miami 2 with classification but you can sure as poo poo lose your life savings with any Play Store account.

I reckon betting against the house should be illegal at least. Let people play games of chance against each other, either in money games or tournaments, and let the house take its cut. Let people bet on sports outcomes and the like and let the house take its cut through odds. But if the house or the very nature of the game determines the outcomes it shouldn't be allowed. That's just straight up taking people's money.

So a “high profile local government political figure” has been given a good behaviour bond over domestic violence charges. He can’t be named, but there’s a maximum of 5 men you’d call “high profile local government political figures” in Victoria and that’s stretching the definition to include 3 who have retired.

quote:

In the letter, Mr Hawke said the code for citizenship ceremonies stated they could not be used as a forum for political, partisan or religious expression, and he argued Cr Sri had made comments that constituted "political expression", with some attendees offended.
He said the department was contacted by a "concerned attendee" who said Cr Sri's comments included identifying himself as a member of the Greens, rather than as a councillor for the Gabba Ward, and suggesting those present were meeting on "stolen land" and discussing genocide.
The complaint also included: "Your suggestions that the Department/Australian government has implemented costly and complicated processes, which make it difficult to obtain citizenship and for people to bring family members to Australia, and that this is motivated by racism and xenophobia," Mr Hawke wrote.
Mr Hawke said he was considering revoking Cr Sri's authority as a councillor to participate in citizenship ceremonies in the future.
