    Politics Super Thread - keep it all in here

    You two? lol. Put the dicks away. I've known dumb graduates, very smart dunces (my current boss who could buy and sell us all lol) and everything in-between. There's only one test - and it's not academic. I might sound like Bambi lol, but if you look after those you care about, and even care...

    I agree. But who is going to REALLY tell him?

    Yeah, sort of agree on the cliche thing. Xi Jinping is between a rock and a hard place at the moment but is playing it cool. He can't go all in with Putin - that would be stupid - but can't afford to piss him off entirely. China has become that communist country that "suddenly" realises that if...

    Australia (and many other western allies) tends to play the international power game with the 3 or 4 year election cycle as the end point. And btw we are a lightweight. China has always played the game with a much longer strategy - like 100 years? Who do you think wins in the end? Like Ukraine...

    Earl, I think you two are both sides of the same coin. From outside looking in it's like the old alpha male story (hint: the woman always wins!) I reckon if you two could be brought together for a couple of beers you'd hit it off - might not agree but would hit it off, walk away disagreeing and...

    I just walked the dogs and listened to RN on the way around the golf course. If ever you want to listen to an inspirational person, look up "Conversations" (which I thought was done by Richard Fidler but now has a new presenter). A woman some years ago set up a school in Tanzania - amazing...

    I would always prefer to play the ball than the man. You usually end up in front that way. Tigers are an exception to the rule!

    If you ever doubt the worth of the public broadcasters have a geek at these. I'm mostly on Radio National on the way to work and way home. Monday Norman Swan - I know, I know, but a clever man who has a great show (not a fan of the co-presenter style currently). Then on Tuesday listen to the...

    The ABC has always given more stick to the incumbents than the opposition. It's just the way things work. The fact that it's been 10 years since the coalition took office means they have received more attention. And we of course notice it more. And the way they've thrown money (and largesse ie...

    I try never to comment on anyone's appearance - it's cheap, nasty and does the commentator no credit. However.... Anyone noticed that since Costello left parliament and became head honcho of the Future Fund, that he's grown three chins? Nice lunches and dinners in Collins or Pitt Sts. Not a...

    When the biggest knife you can bring to a gunfight is a man who lost his own seat at an election when he was prime minister - you are really scraping the bottom of the barrell. https://www.smh.com.au/politics/federal/john-howard-says-the-teal-campaigns-contain-a-fundamental-lie-20220512-p5ako2.html
