Barnaby has already whined about how hard it would be for "politicians to do their job" with the kind of scrutiny a federal ICAC would entail. Where "their job" is to shovel money from the taxpayer to their mates, donors, and fellow travellers. It's astounding that this is the thought process - being expected to comply with the rules (which they themselves have written and voted into legislation) is a bridge too far.

You know poo poo's bad when even convicted racist Andrew Bolt comes out and says, "No, don't feel sorry for her. This is of her own making and she is probably shady as hell." The rest of his column was about how it should have been Dan Andrews thrown out of office Yeast posted:They let you do this now on the phone, thankfully. I wish that had been the case with me. The whole loving thing was a Kafkaesque nightmare.

Geoffrey Robertson QC holds the NSW ICAC up as a model for anti-corruption activity worldwide, but it seems he was mistaken and it's actually not the sort of thing that should exist even at a federal level, let alone in other countries.

He's giving a speech at the Yushan Forum officially, unofficially he'll probably say some other things about Australian support etc etc quote:Entering into its fifth year, the 2021 Yushan Forum will explore the prospect of "Resetting Priorities of Progress with Resilience." As the resilience of the international community is constantly put to a test by greater challenges, the Yushan Forum will bring together the best and the brightest minds and dedicate themselves to the search for a people-centered development model to end disparity and achieve inclusive growth.

yoloer420 posted:So you think there be riots when people realise that is an easing of restrictions not "do whatever you want"? Under the original plan 70% and 80% would happen a week and a bit apart and then the final lifting of restrictions would happen at the beginning of December. As some restrictions will remain after that final lifting, that's the point where I think you'll see major pushback from people who've been pro-lockdown and previously happy to comply with the stay at home orders. Perrottet needs to let people know his intentions regarding lifting the stay at home orders ASAP. The Opposition should be in full on attack mode about people being left with uncertainty.

I haven't heard the government address it much beyond talking about ventilation. I think Pfizer is getting eua in America for young kids pretty soon, probably too late for kids here though.

It will almost certainly be approved for 5+ by the time term 1 of 2022 rolls around. Our government has told Pfizer to seek approval.

I have an uncle who's been anti-Dandrews, anti-China and anti-vax since mid-2020 has now had his first dose because his customers (he's a tradesman) are requesting all of their suppliers be vaccinated before coming on site. Vaccination will get normalised over the next few months as simply another requirement of doing business, going to venues, etc.

Only like 2 weeks to reach 80% of adults double vaxed but nah, that's too long apparently. 70% is only like 55% total population.
