I had similar, where I was getting repeated blood infections that needed surgery but because I wasn't going to *immediately* die from it, just be horribly sick most of the time, it was go private or go home. It was absolutely worth the 8k I paid but yeah, urgh.

Did you have issues with your butthole as well? Because this sounds very similar to what I'm dealing with.

Barilaro has ruled out federal politics.

He said the ongoing defamation case is a big part of his decision to resign. I suspect being unable to work with the extreme right faction of the NSW Liberal party is also a factor.

Yes I suspect this is the case. I never thought Barilaro was a rampaging leftie but his electorate includes Queanbeyan/Jerrabomberra which does skew more moderate, along with Canberra.

Comedy option is that the FriendlyJordies crusade has a ring of truth to it and ICAC is sharpening their briefs.

i don't think barilaro has a problem with the right of the libs, if anything he gets along with the moderates worse - all the koala drama last year, and he was calling on turnbull to resign back in 2017 lol

he'd been considering leaving state politics for quite a while, and said he'd planned to resign before too long anyway, just he brought it forward now that berejiklian's gone so perrottet doesn't have to do multiple cabinet reshuffles.

quote:

The outgoing New South Wales premier, Gladys Berejiklian, has been approached by senior Liberals in the state to run for the federal seat of Warringah.

Some federal MPs say Berejiklian is seriously considering the proposal to switch to federal politics, but believe she wants to wait until the investigation being undertaken by the Independent commission against corruption is complete.

Supporters of Berejiklian are confident that the Icac investigation will clear her of any wrongdoing, while Berejiklian has insisted she has always acted with “integrity”.

It is understood that the prime minister, Scott Morrison, is backing the plan to run Berejiklian in Warringah, which would give the Coalition a strong chance of taking back the blue-ribbon seat, currently held by independent Zali Steggall.
