Yeah nah i already know from this very thread the nationals are dying because country people in their hearts want to vote for the greens

Pretty sure every time this has ever been brought up itt everyone's acknowledged the huge inertia of generational rusted-on-ness of Nationals voters, but hoped that university educated young farmers might start to switch over due to the policies of the Greens actually being in their best interest. Not really the most ridiculous position.

Same.

Also I just learned that Australia has federal trans-inclusive non-discrimination laws on the books, and also that non-binary folx have the option to have a non-specific gender on legal forms. That rules.

Though due to our marriage laws specifying marriage is between a man and a woman, it also means it causes forced divorces for some trans and non-binary folk if they want their gender legally recognised.

You're insane. You can get better turkish delight from most kebab shops.

Yeah, but we're comparing chocolate bars, not all confectionery. I'll agree with you on your reasoning for Twirl, but I prefer Flake.

As much as it might not seems like it, you still have a better chance of getting out of the working class now than you did then.

Not as quickly though.

I tend to think that kissing someone on the neck against their consent is in fact illegal.

Would probably depend on if he kept doing it when she told him to gently caress off.

If you could show me the bit in a law which says consent is implied until retracted that'd be great.

The perpetrator has to be aware that they're committing an assault, it's pretty poo poo and I don't know how far that reasonably gets taken, but it is the law in Hong Kong.

e: Essentially he'd have to show he reasonably believed she had given consent, so it would depend on the circumstances leading up to it.

It also takes into account how important their vote was in actually passing or stopping the bill.

e:Wait no, I think I misunderstood that bit. Here's the explanation anyway: https://theyvoteforyou.org.au/people/senate/nsw/sam_dastyari/policies/18
