I mean I sort of understood what Daley was trying to say, he just said it in the laziest way possible. Also the video looked like it was taken at some young Labor politics in the pub event so you just know the video was taken by some smug gently caress Young Lib thinking he was deep in enemy territory. If he just said high housing and cost of living expenses are forcing young people to move out of Sydney this election may have been slightly different. I mean of course that means only rich people can afford to live there but adding more to it is just slightly out of touch.

So with the video it was filmed like 6 months ago but basically shelved until right before the election so the ALP was pretty much unable to change leaders in time? He shouldn't have said that poo poo, but it's one of the dirtiest political moves if indeed was kept on ice until right before the election itself. Which you know could be construed as actual news but seems to have just faded away without a second look from the press. E: Also a new take that seems to be doing the rounds in the guardian comments I haven't noticed before. Are the posts claiming because Gladys is female and came from a migrant family meaning you cannot question any policies because if they(right wing trolls) did the same they would be called out for being sexist or rascist.

The fact that nobody is reporting on the video anymore shows that it isn't actually news, but that rather the effect that broadcasting the video would have on the election is news. This seems kinda hosed to me.

Of course it's a problem that the Labor leader did a racism, but if that was the angle they cared about they would have reported it at the time. The fact that they held onto it this long shows that they don't actually give a gently caress about racism, but just about scoring points. If the Libs weren't getting big Chinese money I 100% guarantee they would be spouting the same racist poo poo. They're just good at virtue signalling to people who don't pay that much attention.

Also Liberal candidates getting spots on Chinese state television is very odd and suspect. That poo poo has never happened before.

There were a bunch of National seats on a margin of around 2-4% (Lismore, Monaro, Upper Hunter, Tweed), plus the Lib-held Coogee and East Hills (which was 0.4%), and a collection of other seats around 6-10% (mostly outer Sydney and the South Coast). Labor got Coogee, will probably get Lismore. They couldn't even swing East Hills. Of the seats that saw a sizeable swing but didn't change hands Penrith was the only one in the 6-10% band, and Monaro became much safer for the Nats.

Coalition warns meat prices will soar under Labor’s plan to cut carbon pollution FAMILIES are being warned to prepare for a meat tax that will make “spaghetti bolognese as expensive as a steak” and turn the “Aussie meat pie into an endangered species” under Labor’s ambitious plan to cut carbon pollution. The cost of thin barbecue sausages are projected to increase by 90 per cent alone, and a beef family roast by almost 40 per cent, costing almost $20 a kilogram if agriculture is captured under Bill Shorten’s policy. Managing director of Super Butcher and the LNP’s Senate candidate at the next election, Susan McDonald, has demanded Bill Shorten tell voters how much his plan will cost businesses and family budgets. Many butchers have very high electricity bills because of their cold rooms. It comes as Energy Minister Angus Taylor tells The Courier-Mail that Labor’s plan to cut carbon emissions by 45 per cent in 10 years cannot be done by just reducing pollution from the electricity sector. Almost every day Mr Shorten has been asked but refused to answer how he will meet his three-year-old plan to cut carbon emissions by 45 per cent on 2005 levels by 2030. It is separate to Labor’s 50 per cent renewable energy target. Labor’s agricultural spokesman Joel Fitzgibbon said agriculture would be exempt from any carbon pollution mechanism, but Mr Shorten and his climate change spokesman Mark Butler have repeatedly refused to reveal their plans. Mr Shorten said he would reveal details soon. Mr Butler last week directly refused to answer if farmers would be forced to reduce the methane production of their livestock or forced to reduce livestock numbers. Mr Taylor said that the electricity sector only made up about 30 per cent of Australia’s emissions so it would be “impossible” for Labor to meet its 45 per cent target by just targeting the electricity sector. “Independent modelling shows Labor’s 45 per cent emissions reduction target will drive up wholesale electricity prices by 58 per cent,” Mr Taylor said. “This will have flow on effects to high-energy use industries and businesses, like butchers who rely on refrigeration to keep meat cool.’’ “As a butcher tackles high energy costs thanks to Labor’s reckless targets, those costs will be passed on to the price of meat to keep the business viable.” Northern Australia Minister Matt Canavan, whose local office is in Rockhampton, said that Labor’s plan to tax red meat would be “bad news for Rocky’’, well known as the beef capital. “Beef from Central Queensland will be taxed while beef from overseas will be tax free. “Labor can’t meet its emissions reductions targets without including agriculture and that’s why Bill Shorten refused to rule it out this week.” Independent economist Brian Fisher, who has worked for Labor and the Coalition, released six scenarios on how Mr Shorten could reach his targets. Each had a significant cost to the economy. Using a scenario where Kyoto credits would be carried over, meaning the cost wouldn’t be as high, there would be a high cost to meat prices if agriculture is included in any reduction plan. Senator Canavan said Labor had not released modelling to show what its policy would mean for the economy and jobs. Ms McDonald said Mr Shorten needed to be honest with Queenslanders about the cost of living implications under his plan. “If the price of the family meal is going to go up, then it’s only fair that mums and dads are told,” she said. “That’s important to know at the ballot box when people make a choice about what price they will pay for Labor’s agenda. “A methane tax makes the family spag bol on Tuesday night as much as steak night now. Mr Fitzgibbon accused the LNP of a scare campaign. “The Labor Party policy for some time has been to exempt agriculture in Australia from any carbon pollution reduction mechanism,” Mr Fitzgibbon said. “Labor is not considering changing this approach and we will continue to ignore the shrill scare campaign from the LNP. “Labor has already announced a detailed energy plan that explains how we will achieve emission reductions in the crucial electricity sector. “The balance of our policies will be announced before the election.”

Can’t wait for another term of Liberal government because Australians will absolutely lose their poo poo over any increase to an unsustainable standard of living, ironically electing a government that makes living more expensive and keeps wages flat.

My suspicion is that most white boomers having so little exposure to scarcity of food meant they never had to be creative and learn how to make cheap or unusual ingredients tasty. Why learn how to make vegetables taste good when you've got all of the steak. You can go to just about any non white country and the poo poo they do with vegetables and fruits is crazy good. I used to loathe cauliflower because I grew up thinking the only way to eat it was boiled. Then my gf cooked like a Mediterranean roast spicy cauliflower thing and it blew my mind.

I experienced an interesting inverse of this recently. A work friend of mine has an Indian/European background and can make up a rocking curry. Just a couple of weeks ago she was excitedly telling us about how she had learned how to make boiled and scrambled eggs for the first time that weekend. edit: I'll join in the CAULIFLOWER GOOD chat as well, so many years thinking it wasn't due to my English family just boiling it into mush.
