You could write a novel on the corruption a well set up ICAC could uncover. I lean to the centre right but I was rapt that Obeid went down. The only people resiling from a good ICAC are ? who? those arguing against it lol. And who do you think they are?

Yes, every now and then they get ahead of themselves. But the end result? Please! If this is Morrisson's hill to die on he is toast.

Bring on an ICAC with teeth. It will hurt both sides but I don't care. Give me Helen Haines any day of the week.

I generally but not always have voted ALP, I support any corruption getting rooted out. Was just happy to see Obeid and co get done like Macguire and Berejiklian.
 
On the night of the "last bash" my mate said to Abbo? "Isn't politics like a game of snakes and ladders?"

Next morning some young journo grabs Abbott in the Manly surf after he'd been given the arse (and after his last hurrah at Kirribilli) and he said to the journo = "Aaahhhh, life is like a game of snakes and ladders".

My mate still hasn't forgiven him for stealing his punchline lpl

People in Sri Lanka arent happy atm,the Pakistanis arent happy that Imran got the boot...
And I heard Bong Bong was elected because people had a gutful of the Rothchild puppet DETUERT or whatever his name is screwing them over and is as corrupt as the worst in the world...
I dont know but politicians seem to do well out of their term in power while the people they represent keep on SUFFERING...

TT? You know that the vice president to Bong Bong (still makes me laugh to type that) is Sara Duterte?

I was in Mindanoa in the early 80's and it was bad. I think it will get worse.

50 politicians' houses were burnt down yesterday in Sri Lanka, and one politician killed. One way to send a message I guess.
 
Just hope we have enough sense not to vote in group of socialists whose only concerns are gender equality, climate change and pronouns when I am worried by Australia's economic recovery and jobs

In the Philippines they are only elected for one term which is 6 years so no chance of the incumbent president staying on. All politicians in the Phils are corrupt and Marcos is the worst of all time. This family will do everything they can to milk more money out of the country and he plans to have closer ties with China so you can guess where the money comes from.

I would not put it past this corrupt family to either try and change the constitution to extend the 6 year term or instigate marshall law like his father did to retain power.

TT. if I am lucky enough to have a share in a racehorse again I'll campaign to have he or her called Bong Bong. And if we can win the Bong Bong Cup all the better lol
 
A wonderful theory. Which party has any plans or stated policy to improve the quality or efficiency of our labour force? Jason Clare's comment is no great insight, it's simply common sense. How do you propose those productivity increases will be achieved?
Labor. It's not theory. If you read my post it details how efficiencies can be achieved.
 
Bennelong looking a bit shaky the Libs . John Alexander had some good ideas but was always side lined by the troglodytes. His replacement not making much headway.
Good. Howard's policy choices in August 2001 made the decision for me that his developing iteration of Liberals could no longer receive my vote. So getting the opportunity to cast mine as one of his constituency in a Denistone East church to directly remove him in 2007 was a sweet experience.

Stuff like him later taking our nation to war based on known lies was bad enough, but as the current guy has ruined our parliament and completely wiped transparency, I would love it even more if I lived in Cook and could be part of removing Morrison, along with his government come Saturday week.

I would love to have a runner there but I havent been involved with the race horses for a few years now but my mate who is a trainer in Wagga Wagga is over in America atm because his brother has a runner in the Kentucky Derby...
Gai Waterhouse and other trainers quite often have runners in the Bong Bong Cup as it is a prestigious Cup to win apparently...
I rode many a horse in pre training back in the day at Wagga for trainers like Dave Heywood,Gary Colvin,Greg McDermott Andrew Stiener( who was an amateur rider and rode at Bong Bong on may occasions)...
Its great to reminiss but the Rodeo,Endurance riding and race horse riding are behind me now...getting a bit to old,but Iam willing to help the youth work with their horses if need be...
