The ScoMo Government

I still think Albo has to pick up the pace, to get a message across, he could find himself having people think, better the devil you know.

I think he's doing all he can, and I think he's going to do a Bradbury.

And, with a front bench of Keneally, Bowen, Plibersek, Wong, Burke, Shorten - God help us.

Has it dawned on you yet that you voted for this lot?
For franking credits that were basically wiped out due to covid lol

Has it dawned on you, that you should be asking older people what they have learnt through life.
Rather than trying to take the pizz out of them?
When I finally got into a position, that I had enough money to afford to start investing, I asked the old guys who obviously invested well what they would invest in, if they were in my position.
Well long story short, I retired at 55, hope you finally use your mouth and ears to your advantage, but I doubt it. ?
You obviously know way too much, to be bothered listening to old farts. ?
Why not just flck off to facebook or whatever, where you can be a legend amongst the other young legends.

I just don't know if this true.

But it is far too much fun to ignore so I'm giving it a whirl.

“I’m Not Tanking This Election” Says Scotty During George Pell Photo Op​

LOUIS BURKE | Culture | Contact


Although he advocated for the stolen generation to accept Kevin Rudd’s apology, made a baseless claim that a member of the opposition is a Chinese spy and absolutely butchered a piece of NZ/AUS music history, all within the same week, Scotty from Marketing insists he is not deliberately tanking this upcoming election.

And he’s got just the guy to stand by his side.

Showing up to the type of photo op that has made up 99% of his time in power, Scotty appeared alongside disgraced Vatican Cardinal George Pell, in an apparent attempt to show he’s for all Australians no matter what Christian denomination they are.

“You know these guys don’t even eat meat on Fridays!” stated Scotty, with his arm around Pell.

“Guess it’s a seafood curry tonight guys!”

This seems like a very good idea. Lets go ScoMo !!

Australia sends Tony Abbott to have man-to-man with Putin

Saying that someone needed to talk to the Russian President ‘man to man’, Tony Abbott has volunteered to travel to Moscow to see if they can’t sort out this Ukraine mess over a beer and a few onions.

At the airport this morning, Mr Abbott said he reckoned he understood the Russian leader better than most. “He’s a small man that likes to take his shirt off, get out into the outdoors and get the testosterone pumping, so I think we’ve got a lot in common,” Abbott said. “I’m into riding bikes, whereas he’s more into riding wild horses bareback, but it’s basically the same thing”.
Mr Abbott said he was confident the meeting would go well. “We’ll break the ice with an arm wrestle, flex our pectoral muscles for a few minutes, he’ll make a joke about shirtfronting, I’ll have a gentle prod at his human rights record and then we’ll get down to the business of sorting out geopolitical disputes. I’m sure after chatting he’ll see that invading Ukraine isn’t what it’s cracked up to be”.

Abbott insisted his 2014 threat to ‘shirtfront’ Putin was taken out of misunderstood. “What I meant was to get in front of the Russian President with our shirts off, which is what we’ll be doing on this trip” .

Yes there is one thing supporting your allies, it is a whole new level when you are cranking up the rhetoric with the mountain gorilla, China may say stuff Taiwan, well colonise Australia. ?

This is definitely a possibility. Their front bench is radioactive.

Just one woke statement could blow up any chances

It's a sad state in Australian politics at the moment. I don't think there is one single candidate on any side I would really want to choose.

Well, maybe Bob Katter. Rolled gold. Should be PM.

Jesus, here I have been thinking in terms of overall parties. I like a couple of the minors in this regard.

... But prime minister material? I can't think of a single person in any of the parties with the gravitas and without some sort of deal-breaker.

Sean, from your military perspective could that be a good thing? As in the US Marines concept of the red stripe?

Or are we a rudderless sh¹t show?

Katter is Sideshow Bob. We are rudderless.

I could be biased in saying that Hastie might be potential, in 15 or so years.

Being even more biased, any of our last military GGs could have been PM material.

If we could raise Monash, then he would probably do.

 

[SirRumpole]

Is Albo a Kremlin candidate ?

Would be a catchy phrase for our dear Prime Minister to use in an election.

I think you are a lot closer to the money than what people realise.
Russia and China ie Putin and Xi know that now the U.S has put in a head of state that really wont be able to rally a CWA meeting let alone a military response, there is no way that any intervention will happen.
The EU is a mess, let's be honest France is leading them, enough said.
The U.K is battening down the hatches.
Australia is in need of a Statesman and there really isn't one to be seen on both sides of politics, our only saving grace is we are a long way away from China, but we are also a long way away from anyone who could feasibly help us.
Interesting times IMO.
I think times were a lot more stable with the carrot haired nutjob next to the big red button, because Putin and Xi didn't want to call his bluff.
You never know, the furthest thing from our minds in 10 years, might be the dole, the pension, land rights, penalty rates, and long service leave, people smugglers might be backloading. ?

Well there is one good thing to come out of the latest tensions, Australia shouldn't have to loose any more soldiers on French soil, like they did in the last two world wars.

French strategy keeps Australia in freeze

France has downgraded its diplomatic relations with Australia in a new Indo-Pacific strategy.French President Emmanuel Macron reacted with fury last year when Prime Minister Scott Morrison revealed plans to scrap a $90 billion deal to buy submarines.

au.news.yahoo.com

From the article:
A document issued by Mr Macron and his foreign affairs minister, France's Indo-Pacific Strategy, takes a cool approach to Australia.

"Australia's decision in September 2021, without prior consultation or warning, to break off the partnership of trust with France that included the Future Submarine Program (FSP), has led to a re-evaluation of the past strategic partnership the two countries," the 67-page document reads.

"France will pursue bilateral cooperation with Australia on a case-by-case basis, according to its national interests and those of regional partners.

"France intends to maintain close relations with the United States, an ally and major player in the Indo-Pacific, and to strengthen coordination, including on issues raised by the announcement of the AUKUS agreement."

Wow, even for you that is below the navel and no doubt being familiar with buttholes you would be an expert. ?
I didn't see anything wrong with my comment, if Macron can disassociate himself from Australia over a cancelled contract, it just highlights how shallow the dude is, when you consider Australian troops went half the way around the World to drag their ar$e out of the $hit, TWICE.

Yeah but Macron has to run for elections so he has to appear tough to his electorate. So what does France mean to us anyway ? Just part of a Europe that puts tarrifs and quotas on our products so that they can protect their inefficient and molly coddled farmers.

Let them whinge, they were behind schedule and over budget on the subs and it was just a matter of time before we got Jack of them.
