Literally the only good thing about Zed Seselja is that he's in the Senate and thus is even further from the leadership than he would be in the House.

He got elected the first time instead of the Greens candidate (Simon Sheikh) because Animal Justice Party preferenced the Liberals ahead of the Greens lol

Which they did because the Greens support kangaroo culling.

Which the Liberals and Labor also support as kangaroos thrive through farming land and thus are killing off native flora and fauna through expansion.

Nothing puts a certain subsection sideways than explaining New Zealand's eco policy is to murder all the non native non human mammals on the islands. Which is literally all of them but three species of bat. They are invasive and introduced.

Her ignorant fuckhole quote in the preview for this season of Go Back To Where You Came From would be enough to disqualify her from ever holding office again in a just world.

I watched that friendlyjordies video on the ABC and he basically says the ABC is a secret LNP organisation that only pretends to throw hard questions at the LNP in order to make the commercial stations that publicly suck LNP dick seem more normal. He then says the only solution is to donate to his patron because his channel is the sole reason for an increase in voter registration and union membership.

I really don't get the way that all Sydney residents seem to have this massive blindspot in that they honestly believe that promoting racial stereotypes of Lebanese-Australians isn't racist.

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

https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2018/oct/10/greens-push-to-phase-out-poker-machines-in-victoria-within-a-decade

quote:

Poker machines would be phased out of pubs and clubs in Victoria within a decade under a Greens policy that would tear up a new 20-year licensing deal legislated by the state Labor government last year.

I couldn't be happier with that legislation unless they advocated cutting throats and taking cues from Guy Fawkes' playbook as well.

I'm not going to trawl YouTube to check and this claim might have been about another criticism levelled at him, but I think he said it's okay because he's Croatian heritage (possibly another ethnic group from same region, I suck at Geography and History, the gist was I Am Persecuted)

ETA not a defence, not condoning, just adding to the why he thinks it's okay discussion

The surprise announcement by the prime minister, Scott Morrison, on Tuesday that Australia may relocate its embassy to Jerusalem appears to have divided Wentworth’s Jewish community, a forum on Tuesday night suggested.

The forum featured four candidates running in Saturday’s byelection and was hosted by the Jewish Board of Deputies. There was applause for the Liberal candidate, Dave Sharma, as he explained the government’s new position, though others appeared to back the assessment by the independent Kerryn Phelps that the policy was nothing more than “a politically motivated move”.

Australia’s policies on Israel and the Middle East, climate change and refugees dominated the forum.

New internal Liberal polling, published in the Australian on Wednesday, suggested Phelps is in a winning position ahead of Saturday’s vote.

Oh no own goal?

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.

Max Recruitment did me in over the six months I had to deal with them. Put them up against the same wall as Sarina Russo. It was only after I got a job myself that the say me down for an assessment. It was later that I realised they were trying to put me on a higher level of need so that they could get better government kickbacks for claiming they finally got me a job.
