"They do their cause more harm than good," he told the Nine Network on Friday.

quote:

Mr Dutton again raised the prospect of charging protesters acting without permits for the cost of the police response.

"When you are acting outside of the law, which these people are doing, you are diverting valuable police resources. I think there should be a price to pay for that," he said.

hey cartoon you should see if XR in your area has a Regen group (or if not, you should start one) as I think that would be right up your alley, and you definately have the expertise in that kind of stuff (sustainable living, permaculture, grid based toilets) that Regen is about
I probably have as much experience in the protest movement and agitprop theatre. That shot of street performers dragging the cops around like the pied piper is sheer magic. Unfortunately I live in a redneck neck of the woods and actively disrupting traffic, of all things, would immediately lead to me getting beaten to death. I'm sure many posters here would see this as a win-win but alas...

I was at the last climate strike with a honking big sign and will get involved in anything coming up if I can.

The Block’s Scott Cam has taken a job working for the Prime Minister but it’s not renovating parliament house.

Australia’s two highest-profile Scotts will be joining forces to build the number of tradies in the nation, with Scott Morrison enlisting Scott Cam to get more young people on the tools.

Great youth ambassador there scott.

iI's really cool to have a shithead boomer ad man for a PM. No one involved in this poo poo is under the illusion that it will result in more tradies. It's a lovely advert to make boomers feel better about stupid young people not being carpeters.

Caught between two worlds...
a tafe thing that's not getting media airtime, because tafe things don't, is that due to a lack of funding many regional tafes are having to cut their course hours and can only offer courses part-time. as austudy is only applicable for full-time study, this means no austudy for anybody unless they're studying one of like three scomo-approved courses. as is usually the case this has impacted me personally, because i was relying on having a semester's worth of austudy left in my diploma to finance my move interstate, only to find once i got here that my diploma is no longer offered full-time and so i have to make do with the dole. this would all have something to do with the job snob thing i guess, which means it's working as intended

Just ran past Olympic Pde where the bridge crosses the Yarra. Cops blocking the intersection and a convoy of about 8 motorbike cops and a few cars hooning down Olympic Pde towards the city.
I assumed it was the XR thing at Collins st. The cop was going mental at runners and cyclists sneaking through the stationary cars to cross the intersection.
