Remember when George Christiensen had a sexy photo shoot and there was a profile one of him pretending to shoot a gun, he posted the following with the photo: "Do you feel lucky, greenie punks?" ...

“A war on leakers.” My daughter asked me what that meant. I said, “Depends.” (I’ll show myself out.)

What is political leadership (“The nuclear debate that blew up political partnership”, May 21)? When you have access to the best climate and energy experts, you have an obligation to educate your electorate on the best way for Australia to respond to the climate crisis. Instead, we’ve seen Nationals leader David Littleproud’s cynical nuclear response and Barnaby Joyce joining the misinformation circus that wind farms kill whales. These are not serious people, they are followers posing as leaders. Sue Young, Bensville

letter to smh ed
My opinion of David Littleproud is shattered. He visited Sussan Ley in her electorate last week and then yesterday, with Ley’s mother probably not yet buried, he does the usual “male bullying a female” trick. Have they forgotten they are in opposition, and therefore irrelevant, and so the discussion could have waited another week? Is Littleproud maybe just a more presentable version of Barnaby Joyce? If these are the Coalition values they keep talking about, they obviously include misogynist dominance, so count me out. Peter Kamenyitzky, Castle Hill

NEVER IN MY WILDEST DREAMS DID I THINK THE LIBERALS WOULD LOSE BRADFIELD! NOW THEY HAVE ZERO SEATS ON THE NORTH SHORE! EVEN THOUGH IT IS DELIGHTFUL TO HAVE THE LIBERALS SMASHED TO THE POINT OF HUMILIATION, THE OVERALL RESULT IS NOT GOOD FOR US AT ALL BUT I WILL HAVE TO WAIT AND SEE HOW IT ALL PLAYS OUT WELL PLAYED YESTERDAY AUSTRALIA

Welcome (OR NOT YA SOFTIES) to the best day of the campaign ... Antony Green Day. In honour of Antony remember to VOTE EARLY, VOTE OFTEN AND VOTE HARD!!! And may all our dogs be with us while the chips land wherever they do ... hopefully not on my floor because it is covered in dog hair, and possibly some rat poo, which is a great analogy for Australian political discourse ... HAVE A WONDERFUL DAY EVERYONE 🙂 Photo is of Antony Green looking excited.

The Liberal Campaign Bus once again making itself a focus. I wonder if Big Boy travels on it in the same manner Captain Australia did: "I am on it, I just got off it!"
About eight men at the front of the Liberal campaign bus, which got stuck on a bike lane in Pitt Street Sydney. The men appear to be trying to push the bus backwards.

It was 'disrespectful'. Why on earth are we so scared to call it what it is - RACISM! It was racists being racist.

Up Yours Mark!
Mark Latham placed on 12-month good behaviour order A twitter post by Mark Latham saying: A very Happy New Year to all, in the best country on Earth, where we must never lose the great Australian spirit of having a go, having a laugh and saying 'up yours' to those who are up themselves.

While you read the third sentence you will note that it is accompanied by the Gilligan's Island theme song ...
I don't get the disdain. I watched the successful rocket launch, flight and landing. The capsule contained a civil rights activist, two journalists, a NASA scientist, an international entertainer, and a movie producer - it was incredible! I was full of anxiety the whole 7 odd minutes. The whole mission went off perfectly. Imagine being able to do that!!! And live! Sux it is only for the ultra-rich, and dominated by private industry, but I think it was a fucking awesome thing they did ... to boldly go where the majority of women and men never have ...

Remember when we looked through the windscreen and not the rear-view mirror? Remember when we had been on the bus because we just got off it? Remember when we were all having a go at someone to get a fair go? Ahhhhhhh those were the days!

I reckon this kind of tribal shite is a problem. This kind of shite feeds misinformation, division and conflict. But it is a perfect example of how poor and shallow political discourse in our country is ... not one mention of policy. This is just embarrassing.
