Presumably the one where after they spend a number of years setting in, making a life, getting a job AND becoming citizens they are then free to come to Australia no questions asked.

To be done with all this measuring of proof.

And I'm not afraid to die.

quote:

Young men who feel pressured to be self-sufficient, tough, heterosexual, homophobic and controlling are more likely to consider suicide and more likely to experience and perform acts of violence and bullying, researchers say.
The Australian research involved 1,000 men aged 18 to 30 and was conducted by the Jesuit Social Services’ The Men’s Project with the help of Queensland University of Technology associate professor Michael Flood.
The central analytical tool used for the study is called the “Man Box”, defined as the set of beliefs within and across society that place pressure on men to act in a certain way. These seven beliefs are centred around: self-sufficiency, acting tough, physical attractiveness, rigid gender roles, heterosexuality and homophobia, hypersexuality, and aggression and control.

gently caress Sarina Russo is right, if any of you ever end up on the dole and get assigned to them, do whatever it takes to get reassigned or get your gp to give you medical exemptions. They're god awful and don't do poo poo to help you find actual work.

TAFE training facilities and Service NSW kiosks could be located inside registered clubs across the state, under a deal struck between the NSW government and the powerful clubs lobby that also maintains the special tax treatment for the pokies industry for another four years.

The agreement between the Coalition and Clubs NSW, signed at the conclusion of Responsible Gambling Awareness Week at the weekend, has reignited criticism from anti-gambling advocates over the government's relationship with the clubs lobby.

It also opened the pathway for clubs to become an access point for licences renewal, and birth, deaths and marriage services, with the government agreeing to "consider options for Service NSW kiosks in clubs in isolated communities."

Australia’s coziness with the gambling industry is like America’s coziness with the gun lobby. Sure, make gambling legal, but shouldn’t there be restrictions on advertising? Shouldn’t pokies be banned? The entire industry exists to take money from vulnerable people.

Absolutely. Agreed. It seems like the laws have been relaxed over the last decade or so because I'm seeing so much more gambling related advertising each year. It's hosed. My dad is a gambling addict (restricted to horse bets on good days) and I just thank his failing eyesight and general boomerness that he hasn't discovered all of those gambling/betting apps. His pokies period was a nightmare
