A good day for Turnbull. Good optics all round. Should keep the backbench off his hammer for a bit.

Urcher posted:Yep. I keep hitting random until I like the look of Tasmania. Sometimes I tweak the other options if nothing interesting is coming up. Yees, I thought it was a little too good to be true, every month Tassie being funny. Still, it keeps me amused in an age of misery, so keep up the good work.

I think you'll find that Sweden has one of the highest reported rape rates in the world because hordes of Muslims have invaded their shores. Great news about the cuts in hospitality wages. Can't wait to see small business owners' hearts grow three sizes larger and they hire loads more people. Might be the end of unemployment!

gay picnic defence posted:My great hope from all this is that a recession hits that finally breaks the spell of people thinking the libs are better economic managers That's never going to happen as long as Murdoch's in the tank for the Libs. Maybe if we could convince the Fed Libs to do something against the racing industry? It's a tricky one.

Turnbull kneels at the end of his bed, hands clasped in prayer: "Please Lord, just one boatload of reffoes. With a couple of suicide bombers and 'kill all whitey' in Arabic on the side. Is it too much to ask?"

Gorilla Salad posted:Isn't that actively illegal as well? Yeah, if there's one thing Centrelink didn't skimp on when I was there (this was over a decade ago now, who knows what it's like now) was privacy. You can't even look at your own record without raising flags and starting investigations. If you just looked at - say - Kylie Minogue's record just to see if she ever claimed parenting payment, you MIGHT get out with your job (but probably a demotion), but giving info to the media was a biiig no-no. So like I said, unless things changed, that's a sacking. It's also illegal but the only time I heard of someone going to jail was when someone was caught giving info to a private investigator for money - don't know if leaking to the media quite covers that territory.
