Do they still tell viewers to fact check and then let the guests say whatever they want anyway?

How could any leader find it tenable if, say, 60% of members want them gone, which isn’t technically enough but a de facto gutting of their legitimacy? It’s a bandaid on a gunshot wound.

It doesn't have to apply to him (although I wouldn't be surprised if the exact wording was to the effect of "cannot spill a Prime Minister unless 2/3rds of the party room back the motion"), the only people who would be keen on rolling ScoMo before the election are people the majority of the LNP party room are not keen on seeing as leader (see: Abbott, Tony and Dutton, Peter). ScoMo will get to the next election, and if they're humiliated as the polls say they will be then he'll be the one wearing it. snoremac posted:How could any leader find it tenable if, say, 60% of members want them gone, which isn’t technically enough but a de facto gutting of their legitimacy?

I think the idea is to discourage the outside narrative of Spillsville since there would have to be an overwhelming majority calling for blood in order to force a spill.

I’d be curious to know if 50% of the party can vote to change the threshold back to 50%? An emergency evening party meeting doesn’t sound like they’re enshrining it in their constitution.

The lawyer who was sick of her clients getting off and having an incompetent police force do nothing until she told them everything, is refusing to use the incompetent police force witness protection program on the quite reasonable belief it will be leaked.

Of course, their take on it was that hundreds of evil criminals would now be out on the street because of scandalous errors on the part of the police and they shouldn't go free no matter how hosed up what the cops did was. I'd post a link, but you know, gently caress 'em.

monkeu posted:Hahahah of course Big Tones supported the changes. In his mind he’s going to be leader again soon and he wants to make it harder to roll him a second time I can see it happening. After Scomo loses the far right will convince the party that they would have been better off going hard conservative, and Tony will easily come put on top of that sorry lot. It would be terrible. He might be a hard sell to ever actually lead the party to a win, but when let loose in opposition he is a true unrivaled talent for sewing aimless destruction, undermining government and generally dragging the national discourse even lower than its norm. He won't get the LNP back in power, but he could be corrosive enough to create holes big enough for a bunch of conservative splinter parties to worm their way in. I pray he loses his seat since I can see him loving off to the UK to try being a real tory after that.

Oh my god, please tell me there are reporters banging on the door of whatever rundown hotel Abbott's currently staying in, trying to get his statement on this. I bet he's not loving amused.

The latest Guardian Essential poll shows Labor’s two-party-preferred lead over the government has blown out again to 54% to 46%. A fortnight ago Labor was ahead 52% to 48%, which suggested a tightening in the contest. Deathhhhhhhhhhh

Informer 3838 is also accused of providing information about the location of a drug laboratory belonging to her client [name suppressed], who was part of Mokbel’s criminal empire. It led to his arrest and she acted as his lawyer that same day. He eventually pleaded guilty.

The lawyer began meeting informally with police in mid-2003, but from 2005 to 2009 she was registered as an informer. A court concluded she had a mix of motivations for becoming an informer including ill health and feeling trapped in the criminal world of her clients. She has previously sued the force and received a $2.88 million settlement, but she is now threatening to sue the state again over their failure to protect her identity. “I feel the impact of this nightmare almost every single day,” she wrote in a letter to then Assistant Commissioner Stephen Fontana in 2015. She has refused repeated offers to enter the witness protection program, saying she was not prepared to entrust her safety to the organisation that “so appallingly” breached her confidentiality. Police paid for overseas travel, accommodation, body corporate fees, hire cars, fuel, mobile phone bills and a weekly stipend, The Age understands.

Hollandia posted:Re Attenborough - took him long enough. He has been saying that we need collective action by humans to combat climate change since the mid-2000s. Like evey time he's been asked. His films are entertainment meant to spark a love for the beauty of nature and learn about it. His shows have mentioned climate change in passing, but they are not climate change documentaries. It's like criticising a documentary about pharmaceutical medicines for not screaming YEAH BUT SOME PEOPLE ARE ADDICTED TO FENTANYL every twenty seconds.

So yeah, absolutely. anything from 52-56 on the ALP side would have been within MoE. Polls aren't very helpful when taken out of context, you really need to look at the trends across about 6 or 7 polls to determine any real shifts. If it had shifted to 52/48 for a couple weeks in a row, I'd say it represented real change* *That said, if it hits 56-58, I'm still gonna gloat hard
