who used to be on Sky News. does that make him a lefty or a righty?
probably like most proper political reporters it doesnt matter because he does his job properly.
Right-wing media gleeful at firefighter's support of Pauline Hanson
After his angry rant at Scott Morrison went viral, firefighter Paul Parker is now facing criticism for declaring his support for Pauline Hanson.independentaustralia.net
I'm gleeful. It's fkn hilarious.
Problem is with all this though one bloke was actually responsible and holds the can and one wasnt and didnt hold the can. But its ok you can still blame anyone you want and support anyone you want, its in your head.
Agree he is a journalist who acts like a journalist, not a spokesperson for their prefered side as all others seem to be at the moment.
I will slow it down for you.
Scott was not responsible for the State fires.
Daniel was responsible for the State fires along with the other Premiers.
Scott has been used as a scapegoat for the States failings. The states are happy as they are not being held accountable. You sound like you still blame Scott.
I have a different take altogether.
I dont necessarily agree that the failings are actually as bad as the hysterical ranting that occured this summer in regards to the bushfires, they were actually pretty well handled even when compared to fires in the past decade. This year was actually well managed when compared to previous situations.
People died so there are no winners but it was a vast improvement on our history so far.
To keep improving in this area , the States need to have a focus on it and stop with complacency and pandering to the lowest denominators.
Disagree as you feel the need to Antman.
Speers is alright. Working for Sky and being a new ABC hire suggest he leans to the right, as did his softball interview allowing Morrison to monologue, compared to his constant interrupting of Marles. So I guess he's similar to Leigh Sales.
What's hilarious? The right attempting to paint the left as turning on Parker, or the left not actually giving a *smile* who he votes for?
Well, yes, according to HR, but he only names one of the premiers, because you wouldn't want to name those from his favorite party.

These were the longest running and most devastating fires we've had - certainly the biggest impact on land, forests, native fauna, livestock, properties and the economy that has ever been experienced. Tourism, wine, agriculture and the surrounding rural industries have all taken a massive hit. The level of damage is unprecedented.
That's not my opinion. That's fact.
The fires were "well-managed" in the sense that fewer people died than in other major fires - some on here reckoned that mass evacuations were symptoms of "the nanny state" but its clear that hundreds of lives were saved through these precautionary and acute evacuations . The fire services are much more professional now than they were and modern technology helps with notifying people of threat level and when to evacuate. In that sense management was "better". Even though the scale of the fires was unprecedented, it could have been even worse had the fire services not behaved professionally.
That's fact.
I think Morrison is a disgrace when he lied, then tried to treat this emergency as a marketing exercise, then shifted blame to states, let alone his obfuscation on climate change policy.
Now this last bit is my opinion, you can take it or leave it.
It’s fkn hilarious, the ones who’ve dropped him like a hot spud and the rest who’ve done a double-take before pretending it doesn’t matter that he’s a Hanson acolyte. It’s killed the romance. Apparently the term is “Milkshake Duck”.
Wait, so according to you, people on the left have either dropped Parker or are pretending they don't care? You're telling us how we feel? Am I getting that right? I don't actually not care, I'm just pretending not to care, is that right?
"What is the cost of climate action?" wail the neocons, oblivious in failing to recognise an economy does not exist in a vacuum. Well, those hippies at Melbourne Uni have crunched the numbers and projected that meeting our Paris target would cost $122 billion, or just over four year's worth of current subsidies for fossil fuel industries. Failing to act, however, will result in losses of $2.7 trillion, or a quarter of our current wealth. Inaction will cost us more than 20 times as much as action.
And that is not even accounting for the loss of coal income regardless of what we do, and the massive chance we have to set ourselves up as the renewables superpower of the world.
