Talking Politics

Apparently Koch says to Morrison today:

Koch: For the record, I'm Rye bread at $5 a loaf, Burgen. What about you? Are you a sourdough, or a multigrain?

Morrison: Is that to me?

Koch: Yeah.

Morrison: I'm just normal white bread, white bread toast. That's me.

FMD..... little scotty got that right !

This morning PK asked some Bozo fast talking Lib minister - Roberts i think?

'How much is a loaf of bread minister?'

And he read off his notes, quick as,

' $1.69 when i filled up this morning'

:rotfl1

No *smile*.

Shaun micallef should sue The LNP for restriction of trade

Stuart Robert? He is a bozo. It is incredible someone with that level of talent can become a cabinet minister.

Robert would sit alongside George Christensen as one of the worst members of our current government.

the question of how much is a litre of milk to the PM is a stupid one though.

if you were cynical you could think he gets getting promoted after each demotion because he is a church mate of the PM.
fortunately neither of us are cynics.

I think given Morrison wants to position himself as the everyday man,

Its a perfectly reasonable question.

paul keating could have told you how much a gilded chamber pot from Versaille was.

The bread/milk question was a bit silly. The RAT question should have been the only one seeing he's telling everyone how affordable they are.

Anyway, this morning he spoke with clarity and precision. He's toast.
 
When Morrison is kicked to the kerb at the election, I think as a means of letting bygones be bygones, Albo should offer him the gig as Australia's Ambassador to China.
He should establish an ICAC with real teeth and retrospective powers, give it all the resources it needs and encourage it to be forensically thorough. He should find out and tell us all why Morrison was sacked from Tourism Australia and if his actions were illegal, prosecute him for that too. He should investigate whether Scotty has any unpaid parking fines. Same for Taylor, Joyce, et al.

If you tell the most vulnerable members of society that they can live on $44 a day you should have an understanding of basic living costs.

If you were running an economy.

If you considered yourself a good economic manager.

Anyway, Gladys and whoever calling Morrison a horrible, horrible psycho via text is pretty good, but it's no Kennett and Peacock calling Howard a c*nt on the old car phone.

Flattered by the attention but as per my previous message, I no longer wish to receive this newsletter. Please unsubscribe me.
Yes typical of the left.

You guys have all the 'facts' until a debate ensures, and then you head for the hills.

At first it was shutting down debate with all the ism's racism, sexism, homophobe tags.

Now the left has "the science says so" as if science isn't about peer review and alternative viewpoints.

Now the latest is "mis-information"! Interesting how much mis-information has been proven to be on the money in the last 2 years in relation to Covid.

You forgot jism,

Former attorney general Christian Porter's alleged preferred technique for shutting down debate.

Im glad that looney leftys gone

If gender is a construct, then mistaking that schoolgirls debaters bottom for something else is perfectly understandable

These leftys cant have it both ways, just when it suits.

Not wanting to talk for Ansty, but he may not be interested in a debate because everything has been said over and over.

"Most covid deaths are actually because of Covid"- refuted again and again.
"Vaccines dont work"- refuted again and again.
"Covid is like the flu if you re healthy"-refuted again and again.

on and on it goes.

And science is about evidence. alternate viewpoints are not valid if there is not evidence to support them.

it is amazing how many people claim those who believe the science are arrogant and self-righteous while they express views in opposition to people who actually know what they are talking about.

you can't argue with conspiracy theorists. As I posted here or somewhere, you beat em on fact and they are completely oblivious. Its a pointless exercise. Facts, logic, evidence, its all out the window. You wouldn't know a debate if you fell over one.

You're cherry picking here, look at debt levels under the current LNP government. As for Howard, the economic performance under him was underpinned by the reforms of the Hawke/Keating years. Worldwide interest rates at that time were extremely high coming at the end of an economic boom not just Australia.
Do you realise IanG that you're the only poster that's bothered to mount anything of an argument!

I agree with you re the debt levels of the current LNP. A lot of that is from the Rudd / Gillard years, but they haven't helped much. I go back to my statement about the Philosophical view point though, as i see the current Liberal party as being not much different to the Labor party of 20 years ago. High wage growth under Keating / Hawke contributed to the inflation and high interest rates at that time. It also started he end of manufacturing.

The globe does seem to go through a cyclic run of mostly conservative leaders, then mostly 'progressive'. At the moment we're in the later, with even Boris Johnson who started as a conservative, but seems to have cahnged mid stream when he married a young lefty!

I will concede to you that neither side of politics has helped the situation we face right now. Our inflation growth seems to be running a few months behind that of the USA, but we are heading in the wrong direction with inflation as we write now.

But again, i really prefer to step away from Libs v Labor as in my mind it is really elites v's the middle class, and i've said that a few times over the last few months.

Just this morning i was going over some data re gold prices, and there is a lot looking very odd with that. We have much higher demand for jewellery across the glode, demand for gold bars and coin is massively up. In fact all the data points to prices being at record levels but they ain't. Interestingly, all the largest global banks are buying the stuff up as quick as they can, so it looks like their is price manipulation going on yet again through futures and paper.


JP Morgan copped a 900 million dollar fine for manipulating the price, but thats a slap on the wrist relative to what they make out of doing what they are doing.
 
National Press Club Q&A is worth watching .

Morrison being absolutely smashed by the journalists.

Dead. Man. Walking.
Had it on for a while, it was excruciating listening to Scroto, a bit like listening to Vogon poetry. Most of the journalists looked like their entrails were going to strangle them to put them out of their misery.
