I'M CONCERNED ABOUT A NUMBER OF THINGS

Solemn Sloth posted:

I’d agree with you like a year ago but the NFF have flipped back to being culture warriors and weirdos based on their president.

What was the basis for the recent infighting in the NFF? The new prez too woke for them?

She believed in climate change and was a woman. Thankfully normal service has now been resumed with some old white dude back in the job.

Cop slaughtered a presenter from Totally Wild/Studio 10 and his boyfriend the other day and its gonna make the no cops at pride thing a bit of a big deal coming up

Do they back off or double down? I assume double down, because there's a huge subset of dumbass who only knows the first half of the phrase "a few bad apples"

He was an ex. Doesn't seem like a police hate crime since he was apparently quite a prominent guy in the gay community.

On the flip side, it is an effective reminder to have "never let a cop into your life if you can avoid it" as a policy.

Thats true from the bare facts we got delivered sound like a domestic violence thing, rather than a pointed hate crime. Wouldn't welcome a Police Parade to a women's rights march if a lady from TV got murdered by her cop ex boyfriend either though

Yeah even if he didn't abuse police powers to stalk his ex (unlikely) it's a bad look but there is absolutely no chance at all this moves the needle on the pride board wrt cops at pride

Cartoon posted:

This is a great opportunity for the Greens. The Nationals are increasingly on the nose to the NFF* who are their key constituency. Farms in Australia are largely unprofitable making farmers rely on off farm income to continue to live on the land. In NSW the rural land rating system is pretty much fixed. The council charges the general rate based on the valuer generals land value and there is no mechanism of relief. This (in a run away property market) ratchets up on of the many costs levied on the farmer. If the Greens could negotiate (with the NFF) a system whereby there was an agreed minimum wholesale price for all farm produce, farms might be more prepared (or even able) to engage in sustainable farming practices.

I mean, unless you want to read my manifesto on smashing the patriarchy and feeding the wealthy through a series of solar powered wood chippers, it is clearly the only way forward.

*National Farmer's Federation.

I'm all for a greener, cleaner future with less disgusting rich people all over the place. Even with them all over the fields. But a solar powered wood chipper sounds like it'll catch some cloud part way through and slow down. It's hard enough feeding wood into my electric wood chipper, I hope that thing's got batteries.

Cops should never be allowed at pride

Cops are why we have marches in the first place.

Final version went to the Transport Minister’s office on Friday. Well, her local office at least, will follow up next week. Thanks again for all the help. Sorry I didn't workshop the cover-letter, it leaned on the "Previous governments have failed to give cycle-planning the respect it deserves, instead relying on local councils to pitch individual segments, but this government has an opportunity to fix that, with a top-down approach to route design that delivers a transformative project you can call your own", which I think is a good angle.

When I don’t hear anything back I’ll encourage everyone to send it to their local councils and MPs and cycling groups and hope it makes its way up from there.


edit - I wish everyone is just nice to Dav in general
