GotLag posted:Yeah, and that excuse not getting called out is infuriating because it would be such a loving slam dunk for any reporter worth a drat. But then they'd lost access. And that's vastly more important to reporters than something as meaningless as the truth. Don't get paid for the truth.

What's the odds on QLD LNP still being in power in the next *checks watch* month and 4 days time?

Pretty small, I'd say. Y'know, what with a current labor government and all. Afterwards? Not great, I'd say. Labor haven't exactly covered themselves in roses, but they've repelled all furriners from invading our pristine land (read those dodgies from NSW and Victoria). There's been no major outbreak here, and there haven't been too many ministers having to resign.

the QLD election seems like it will be very close and fairly unpredictable especially considering the complete lack of recent polling but at this point the most likely outcome seems to be labor just manage to hang onto their tiny majority, maintaining the status quo

A majority of studies surveyed found that either First para introduction. A paper in which two economist desperately flail around to try and defend the indefensible. The biggest problem is they are asking the wrong loving question. Maybe if we tried "What causes crime?" https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/guides/zqb2pv4/revision/2#:~:text=The%20causes%20of%20crime%20are,into%20which%20they%20are%20born. quote:The causes of crime are complex. Poverty, parental neglect, low self-esteem, alcohol and drug abuse can be connected to why people break the law. Some are at greater risk of becoming offenders because of the circumstances into which they are born. Seriously the evidence against the proposition more po po = less crime is so vastly overwhelming you'd have to be significantly ignorant of the whole field of criminology over the last 5 decades to even bring it up. The police do however manage to exterminate a bunch of first nations people who are criminals because not enough police? Mr Toby died after the Toyota Hilux he was driving rolled on an unsealed section of road about 27km north of Kununurra. He was being followed by police in another Hilux who had attempted to flag him down in town to perform a random breath test. The coroner said police had misinterpreted their own emergency driving policy, and three officers were reprimanded for allowing the pursuit. Toby was on bail for driving offences including drink driving and driving unlicensed and had never held a driving licence. His blood alcohol level was five times the legal limit. ISSUES RAISED Procedures not all followed, injured in custody, mental health / cognitive impairment.

I half suspect that because of the BLM/HK/Yellow Jackets and other popular unrest around the world the policing human resource increase is less about cars in Townsville and more about resourcing up for revolt putdowns. APS fully expect to have to manage unrest in Australia and it is the politicians of both sides jobs to provide the resources and to sell it to the Australian population. Similarly why the drive for normalisation of army use for civilian control (ostensibly for covid control but despite public messaging, diggers trained to shoot people are not any better than ex airline staff at quarantine, a soldier with guaranteed employment dragged down from his/her QLD base does not have any more fucks to give about being near diseased people than a local employed to protect their community). That's why QLD ALP is doing something that you think would have been anathema post Fitzgerald and re-enforcing the police empire which historically has marched towards the LNP.

Lol if you think that Reservists were called in because they're trained to shoot people. They were called in because it was cheaper and quicker to get bodies on the ground using reservists than doing anything commercially.
