The head of the AMA has come out in support for coal fired power stations over the health of people who live near them.

What the gently caress.

Oh, he's a Liberal stooge, that's why.

I can't completely discount this. I used to organise in the LaTrobe and people there are poor as gently caress and will struggle without big employers like this. I'm not saying they can't do something different with power of course, it's just the few years of pain for that region is gonna be rough.

He probably has a legit personality disorder that needs therapy and drugs. He crosses that line of loathsome idiot to outright mad dog.

More likely he is a massive loving arsehole who is also old and white.

There are lots of old white arseholes, how many of them make you think of Mark Latham other than Mark?

Imagine putting just about anyone's 60+ dad on TV with any kind of consistency. They're bound to say poofter or something eventually.

What if the burglars kill or harm someone innocently living their life? Also they crashed the car, they weren't murdered.

What about the ham head that drove through Bourke St mall?

Australia needs to adopt post-war Britain policies of forcing public housing into every suburb. Could probably do without the 20 story slums though.

What is the alternative when you jam a load of jobless people into public housing in an established area?

Just to clarify, if what you are saying is factually correct you are protected by 18d right?

No. If what you are saying can be justified as being a belief you hold it is protected. It's really broad and basically says do whatever you like as long as you aren't just trying to gently caress with people. Like if you are a Christian and you truly hold that Muslims are evil baby rapers that is ok.

e: I work with journalists union from time to time and they don't feel like editorial content is threatened by 18c, but they acknowledge that doing blatant rabble rousing might land you in poo poo.
