Shame. I only know her from her interview with Richard Fidler and it was pretty good.

So when the Liberals haven't caused a scandal in the last ten minutes we resort to bickering about garbage food.

So the vote was on today for the commission of inquiry into the banks. It passed the Senate and went on to a lower house vote to debate the bill, which failed 70-70 after the speaker cast the tiebreaker in favour of the government. Hilariously Julie Bishop showed up too late and was locked out of the chamber for the vote. If only another Coalition member could have done the same.

I would blow Dane Cook posted:
As like pornographic content or something this would be okay. Outside of that, why would there ever be a reason for a fighting game (I think?) character to be dressed like this? Y'all gotta admit there is a serious problem with cheesecake in video games. Not talking about women exhibiting sexuality, which is fine if there are in-character reasons for it, but talking about women flashing boobs and butt all over the place for no reason other than a presumed-male audience. Anita Sarkeesian Was Right. Kafka Syrup posted:https://twitter.com/Studio10au/status/875149232159703040 I like how they don't bother finding out the name of the leader of the Greens. Also if Hildebrand loses his job then good.

This thread has gone to the dogs since the Mia Freedman chat started. Can we all just drop it?

Anidav posted:I am in Beijing and the air is killing me holy poo poo how do people live here every breath has the thickness of 20 cigarettes and everyone coughs like crazy. Was in Beijing earlier this year and will confirm. Xi'an was much worse, too. Nowhere I went was there clean air or drinkable water.

She probably thinks there just has to be a way to attack the left over this.

If he does then he's charging the taxpayer for things that have nothing to do with his job or being in government. The LNP appear to be so comfortable with ripping off the taxpaying that it happens at both high-level and low-.

Recoome posted:I'm so conflicted coming into the QLD state election. What's the issue with Greens 1 ALP 2? The only problem is if you want to favour Liberals above Labor and I don't think anyone wants to do that.

JBP posted:I think there was a degree of naivety when Keating introduced his changes (both under Hawke and as PM). Labor genuinely thought they were winning and would be in power for eternity. They thought class war was over because their base had built lives in which their children were attending universities, owned homes, whatever. Then the new set of policy levers got handed to the liberals and the levers were ones that they enjoyed pulling. A few pages back but historical politics and labour relations is something that is very interesting to me, who only got into politics ~2008. We voted yes on an enterprise agreement recently that was sheer dogshit, the employers refused to ever negotiate in good faith and just submitted the same terrible offer over and over again four times until employees just sort of gave in I guess. Doesn't help that union membership is probably <10% at my workplace. Always interested to hear about how things were in the 80's/90's because things seem so dire and people so uninterested in labour relations that I wonder how we ever got the conditions that are being stripped away today.

As in they are fascists or as in national party room is fascist? Because I don't see either of those being remotely the case.

Libs normalised racism and ran hard to the right to radicalise voters and now their party is full of empowered racist wing nuts. They created a monster and now the party of Fraser is on the leash of uncompromising crazies who will destroy their own party than give ground to even the slightly-less-bigoted.
