I just got a heads-up from the NSW state division: we actually have the numbers, but the AEC is making the Dems jump through all kinds of hoops to get reregistered.

Bloody Libs and their hatred of minor parties.

They're saying he's "abandoned" them because he didn't specifically mention support for them in his first address as Australian of the year. Like they really thought this would be his number one issue. The news 24 guy at least kind of gave the spokesman dude a hard time about it.

quote:

The Defence Force Welfare Association said it had been inundated with correspondence from members who were angry at General Morrison's approach.

"There seems to be a general view that perhaps he's gone too far in his quest for diversity and respect amongst ADF members who perhaps hold different views on lifestyles and religion and those sorts of issues," DFWA president David Jamison said.

"He's perhaps causing division rather than unity within the ADF and the veteran community."

........perhaps...........

Holy crap that kid is thick as poo poo, in the army he would be called nothing but a slug and many wouldn't even bother ever looking at his name... I wonder what he would think about that, if he isn't constantly stuck in a world of cognitive dissonance that is.

How these people have managed to survive without any obvious serious injuries is beyond me.

I thought it was a much higher quality instalment from FDotM, though that is probably due to the tone being rather cold.

That's almost a good flag. I actually quite like the design, just needs a little help with some scaling and coloration, lets get some black and red in there for starters.

So maybe a black top half, and a red bottom half, then lets make the circle a little smaller, well now it seems a bit busy, so we should probably fill in the circle entirely with gold and move the southern cross up and to the right a bit... better throw in the commonwealth star as well. Yeah I think that looks good.

Just a few small changes and there's a flag that I think reflects Australia well.

EDIT: Lol, Angela "the modern day communist" Merkel, known Trotsky-ist.

Maybe make the flag entirely red, change the symbol up a bit more to reflect the beliefs of Nationalists.

Wait.

I can see why that would be a problem. You need one person to hold the hoop and another to jump through it and the Dems just don't have that kind of numbers.
