If weed isn't legalised then testing to see if you've had it in your system at any point is valid, I guess

If it were legalised they'd have to change to measuring impairment level in some way

In Vic it's two warnings before you're in trouble, so why isn't it a warning if I'm not impaired but get done. It's a stupid rule and a stupid test.

Watching politicians take awkward sips of pots of beer, (it's almost always a pot), in a country pub as they awkwardly try to gladhand and appear relatable is one of my favourite things.

Completely unrelated: Given how the LNP is going full force head on into religious fundamentalism, are they going to try and court the new African migrants, a lot opf whom, like Lucy Gichuhi, are crazy weirdo Christian fundies. If I remember rightly, this had an effect in the same sex marriage vote, where a bunch of newly arrived migrant areas had higher than average No votes.

"Queensland Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk has dismissed climate scientists’ calls for the worldwide elimination of coal-fired power within 32 years, ­reaffirming support for Adani’s proposed 60-year coalmine if it stacks up financially. This week, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change predicted with “very high confidence” that coral reefs would decline by 70-90 per cent if global warming exceeded 1.5C above pre-industrial levels.

Global emissions would need to halve by about 2030 and reach “net zero” by 2050 to prevent warming of that magnitude, the IPCC said. Ms Palaszczuk, when asked about the IPCC warning yesterday, defended her government’s willingness to export coal around the world."

The right by the Minister to approve for nuclear power or fuel processing is literally banned by the act.

section 140a posted:

140A No approval for certain nuclear installations
The Minister must not approve an action consisting of or involving
the construction or operation of any of the following nuclear
installations:
(a) a nuclear fuel fabrication plant;
(b) a nuclear power plant;
(c) an enrichment plant;
(d) a reprocessing facility.
