Australia - you're standing in it
Jaquie Lambie > Tanya Plibersek
To the power of 100
and you know when you are right...
because all you get is yet another lame meme from lamemo
if you are wrong...
you get some 'engagement' from fascisto
which is rare
very very rare
very very very rare...
so rare I cannot recall the last time, which is strange... you'd think the novelty and significance would embed it somewhat in one's memory banks...
strange world

Good post aFRIDAY, 26 FEB 2021 at 1:19AM
100% agree.
Although WTF are you doing up posting at that time of the morning?
#WokeInFright
Tanya Plibersek :
Never been employed outside of the sheltered workshop of party politics in her life.
Never lived more than 30kms from the Sydney GPO.
Worth $9Milllion.
Supposed to understand and represent the working class of broader Australia.
Lolololol
"How good is Lambie"??????? You're joking right? Dodges serious overseas service by pulling the old "yeah mate my back is fucked" routine, but can miraculously sit for 18 hours straight on a senators bench. Uses Clive Palmer to get into parliament, then stabs him in his rather huge sagging back, Wants to put all aboriginals on the Indue lnp ration card, voted with teh gov to keep sick refugees on manus, now holds polls on her fb page to guage the puplics sentiment on controversial issues instead of using her own mind. Not long ago, she asked her followers to vote on whether asylum seekers should be allowed to keep their mobile phones when in detention ( the coalition tried to pass a bill to take away the phones). She didn't want to state she was for taking away the phones. She wanted "back up", "reassurance". Didn't she get the shock of her life when a massive 90% voted for refugees to KEEP THEIR PHONES. She meekly had to go with what she had created, and voted with Labor. FUNNY AF..... They still have their phones :p
yeh, how good is lambie
and plibersek...
I find blowin's little rundown more damning than any former junkie husband, totally damning
that's the worst you've got from a 10 year political career?
shits all over the labor careerists!
each to their own...
how good is jackie lambie!
Micheal Coutts-Trotter fell deeply in love when the pair first met,he thought she said "Tanya Pill-beer-suck".
I’m not going to attack Plibersek’s husband for his drug history beyond stating that heroin has been an avoidable pitfall for all but the reckless, the stupid and stupidly reckless since the seventies. I believe Drug criminalisation is maybe the biggest blight on modern society for the past 50 years.
The fact that he’s still got a career after his “ misstep “ unfortunately says more about the flexibility of the law available to those with means and ends than it does to the enlightenment of our country in regard to the policing of recreational drugs.
But I will say that highlighting a staged confrontation between Tanya Plibersek and Craig Kelly as a contrast of political potency is about as realistically demonstrative as claiming that the aggressive pisshead at the local bowlo is a world class pugilist cause he knocked down a lippy geriatric who’d been at the bar since opening.

The future of the ALP in bold print right there.
Unabashedly honest...
Wait .....didn’t the ALP a support the laws ?

Simba i just tried to read the link about tanyas drug addiction hubby and ablue screen popped up wanting my email adress and something about joinjing some news alert for over 60's (me), it blocked me from reading about him and had no delete x so i could not return to page.
How can someone with crim conv hold public office?
We are a plutocracy, animal farm, nepotism and cronyism=corruption.
Footnote...the link connected and i had 2 or3 secs bfr email offer blocker kicked in
Ahhhhh backgrounding Plibersek’s husband, just like the coalition has been backgrounding Brittany Higgins partner. Charming. Personally I'd like to see more REAL PEOPLE in politics - those with partners that HAVE had struggles, instead of these plastic fake evangelical happy clappers that have no clue about the real world. It seems blowin and sypo wanna damn Tanya for being successful on one hand, but having an "unsuccessful" husband on the other. She cant win either way right? Bizarre tall poppy syndrome at its finest.
Blowin writes "Tanya Plibersek :Never been employed outside of the sheltered workshop of party politics in her life."
Writing stuff doesn't make it true Blowback.
Re Tanya Plibersek - "She has degrees from the University of Technology Sydney and Macquarie University, and before entering parliament worked in the NSW Government’s Domestic Violence Unit."
I personally wouldn't call the (non partisan gov dept) domestic violence uint "the sheltered workshop of party politics". But hey.
errr... I was actually saying I don't see a problem with her husband
but you interpret what you want from it...
I hate for you to agree with me... or you would... whatever...
the rest of plibersek's profile... yeh, I have a problem
...$9 mil ...never had a real job!
as blowin points out... who the fuck does she represent? ...sure don't sound like labor folk to me...
"...Personally I'd like to see more REAL PEOPLE in politics - those with partners that HAVE had struggles, instead of these plastic fake evangelical happy clappers that have no clue about the real world."
so jackie lambie then?
yeh, glad we can find common ground so we can agree on something...
sheepdog mate... maybe NZ needs to lend you guys Jacinda for a while. She's awesome and NZ Labour is very working class team of real people.
Im guessing with the name Sheep shagger that is sarcasm or taking the piss.
Memo, linking that screenshot to that article doesn't necessarily support what appears to be your usual cause.
“Since September 2014, there have been nine terrorist attacks in Australia. All were inspired by Islamic extremists. It is anticipated that any future attacks would involve weapons and tactics that are low-cost and relatively simple, including basic weapons,” the AFP said.
“The threats posed by Islamic extremists is enduring and diversifying and shows no sign of abating.”
trolling, or trawling... jackie lambie's facebook now?
the urge and urgency of the 'no platforners' knows no bounds...
moral, relevance, time, tedium...
carry on...
winning!
Sheepdog I'm still thinking about this one about Jackie Lambie -
"now holds polls on her fb page to guage the puplics sentiment on controversial issues instead of using her own mind"
That sounds like the sort of real democracy that would be a total game changer.
Sounds better than how we're being fucking railroaded by the LNP/Labor duopoly at the moment.
No?
Sypo writes of Tanya "...$9 mil ...never had a real job!"
So Sypo thinks working in the NSW domestic violence unit isn't a "real job". Dealing with battered women and children doesn't count as "real work" for sypo.
And as far as her net worth being "9 mill", NAAAAAHHH..... It's between 4 and 5 mill, which is not outrageous for someone with a house in sydney, where the median is 1.2 mill acording to domain.
Apparently your golden girl Lambie was paid a gazillion on "I'm a celeb get me outa here". Net worth SIX MILLION huh????? Fighting for them battlers she is

"That sounds like the sort of real democracy that would be a total game changer.

No?"
exactly what I thought...
sounds like the closest thing to a step in the right direction towards the excellent swiss model (or was it sweden?) vj described once
just goin on blowin's info...
but of course yours is much more... cough cough credible...
is she a lifelong career politician (with a token side gig...) or not?
4-5 mil worth or 9... sydney house prices or not... sounds like a negative gearer...
'you're a mug if ya don't...'
bahahaha

"Senate voted 34 to 27 to rewrite a Labor motion, deleting references to far right extremists and extremism. Hanson's One Nation, Centre Alliance Stirling Griff, with independents Rex Patrick and Jacqui Lambie all supporting the coalition."

whatever they're worth...
jaquie lambie has still contributed way more to oz politcs than tanya plibersek for their pay cheques...
way more than half of the dead wood in labor party all combined actually...
seriously, what has labor achieved of significance in the last ten years?
nothing springs to my mind at all
yeh yeh, opposition and all that... but a good opposition keeps a government on their toes and accountable, it's arguably just as important as governing...
and they have failed miserably
unbelievably miserably...
lamemo
bahahaha
more construed indentity politics...
it's all you (and labor) have got
Ha ha i started reading that article of memos from the second link, and im thinking what the fuck is this shit???
Is this real? is this serious, i mean the headline gives you a clue
"Raising anti-fascism awareness is the key to ending White supremacy"
And then i got to the end.
"Tom Tanuki is an online satirist, social justice commentator, writer and comedian. He has worked in anti-racist political comedy, most notably through his satirical group the Million Flag Patriots and anti-racist group Yelling At Racist Dogs (Y.A.R.D.). You can follow Tom on Twitter @tom_tanuki."
You might as well have posted some random guys facebook post, im sure it would be more reliable and sane.
Tom Tanuki is an absolute nobody and the biggest flog in Australia...even bigger than Facto to put things in perspective.
is he funny?
like, when he means to be...
(not just his misaligned labels are hilarious routine)
"what the fuck is this shit???"
"is he funny?"
He thinks he is.
Traditionally you think of bogans as right wing, but he is basically a far left wing bogan, biggest potty mouth on him, and just a complete hatter, im sure one day someone will sue him for defamation/slander, especially seeing his videos dissing on others are full of mistruths.
But at the moment he is such a small fish that it wouldn't even be worth thinking about (when i say small fish for perspective his YouTube channel has 1.9K Subscribers)
Syppo re: "real" democracy -
In Switzerland, to challenge a law, citizens must collect 50 000 signatures within 100 days of the official publication of a new law. If they manage to do it, a nationwide referendum is held. And if the majority of the voters reject the law, it is canceled.
How about that for people power.
And further -
The possibility for the citizens to challenge any law influences the whole political system.
It encourages parties to form coalition governments, to minimize the risk that an important party tries to block the action of the government by systematically launching referendums.
It gives legitimacy to political decisions.
It forces the authorities to listen to all sectors of the population, to minimize the risk that they reject new laws in referendums.
Before presenting a new bill to the parliament, the federal government usually makes a wide consultation to ensure that no significant group is frontally opposed to it, and willing to launch a referendum
Fuck me that sounds good.
Guess what fellas, we're living in a corrupt banana republic.
It's a shit-show.
"...but he is basically a far left wing bogan, biggest potty mouth on him, and just a complete hatter,..."
well I might like him
"... his YouTube channel has 1.9K Subscribers...
so basically the alcoholics from a coupla hipster bars in melbourne...
winning!
acab
"...just a complete hatter" ?!
I think you would like this guy better :D
geez, nail hits head there...
so many nails, so many hits
not least how 'the left' seem to be on a mission of isolating everyone!!
isolationists?!
the irony
again...
funny too
you got any 'funny' recomendations from 'comedian' tanaki lamemo?
like haha funny
not h... h... slow clap... how predictable funny...
it does sound good andym
very good
transparency, need good ideas, accountability good...
basically the opposite of what we are enduring now
Yeah I still think that a huge amount of people don't even realise the extent to which we're being had in this country.
Lambie's no saint but I really think she's in it for the people.
Here's a classic example.
Brisbane City Council has spent $132 million purchasing a bus depot in Sherwood, after selling the land in 2009 for $21 million and leasing a purpose-built depot from its private owners (for $6.3 million per year) ever since.
This is standard, this IS how our system, aka neoliberalism, works.
https://www.abc.net.au/news/2021-02-26/brisbane-council-spends-millions-...
people certainly don't realise, the public has been taken to the cleaners, by both sides...
the corruption and nepotism of scomo's governnent is out of this world, labor have difficulty calling them out because they were in on half of it
as I said, an opposition that can hold government to account is just as important as governing, and this sets up the opposition for power. Im not seeing any development there at all
it really is beyond belief the last decade or two in this 'lucky country'. even by lucky country standards, the incompetence, incoherence, and general lack of vision is just bloody shameful for all involved
including the media, especially the media...
even if jaquie lambie never does another single thing, this country is eternally indebted to her, just for her straight talking senate speech calling out liberal's and labor's patheticness and absolute blindness to developments regarding china
the silence of the chamber, and following, was deafening and damning
The "I can't believe it's not politics" thread.
