Nah Pauline will see him off, just as she has with every other wannabe who has attached their name to hers. Her ego is too big to allow others in for long.

Both Britain and Oz operate on the basis that the monarch acts on the advice of the govt of the day with some reserve powers that are rarely used. They are pretty much a rubber stamp. Kerr in 1975 was an anomaly.
PS I’m a republican but I would hate to see us adopt the USA model.

Would 100% agree with you on most occasions but I think the monarch without powers (through the GG) model is serving us quite well at the moment, compared to the clusterfuck that is the USA #Auspol

Such a beat up! Bookings are made by a parliamentary travel office as far as I know and not by
ministers (pretty sure JA used to do that job 😊).

Gawd. Sounds like I’m glad I’ve never seen it.

We noticed last year that we hadn’t seen any. Hope we do this year.

I went week before last, when Colin was unwell and was taken to hospital. Only saw first Act unfortunately.

My husband got to 98 and then they banned him because of medication he was put on. So disappointed!

The rest of the world is howling with laughter. Sorry #QuietPiggy

Not here in Ainslie. Quiet as a mouse.

Bloody brilliant. Might make us stop being so arrogant after the first test. Good viewing at the moment #Ashes

Money buying privacy that only the rich can afford.

Husband and I were just talking about The Divinyls yesterday during one of those long rambling conversations about Oz rock. Chrissy was a legend!

Remember the rift caused by the proposed Franklin dam. Families not talking to each other. I wonder how many would now admit that Tassie’s reputation as a wilderness tourist destination has far exceeded any expectations of what the dam might have delivered. People fall for such shite over and over.

Are they war crimes? There is no war. Trump, Hegseth and Co are just downright murderers.
