Yes but with the ground swell of interest, in becoming of indigenous heritage, there will be a lot of public backlash. So it wont be easy, I read there are 30% more people identifying as indigenous than were in the last census, I know my youngest son is but I don't know where he traces it back from.Well, basically the whole country is 'culturally sensitive' as our indigenous friends lay claim to all of it.
Sometime the government will have to put a stop to it and consider the national interest first.
It's not... Hope it's not the start of the ideological creep.
ABCC about to get scrapped so unions can continue to act like dckheads onsite. Hope it's not the start of the ideological creep.
Still seem to be brown nosing the Yanks but it's still early days.
It will be interesting to see what is actually actioned, on all fronts, with Albo in charge I'm hoping for a breath of fresh air.How about a commission on the big money / real corruption / dodgy building standards / bankruptcy avoiding repairs etc etc.
To ideological eh.

SFA probably. Its an aspirational thing not a contract and its too far away for most people to care. Not that we shouldn't try, but if we only get to 40% is anyone going to sue us ?The question I want asked is, if we legislate 43% reduction and can't meet it, what happens.
Do we have to pay a fine, do we have to buy credits off the EU, really what does it mean?

We'll be lucky to even get to that figure. The Govt of the day whoever they are will either BS their way through it by using offsets or just dump it outright.

It will mean that special interest groups will take the Government to court for not meeting the targets as legislated.The question I want asked is, if we legislate 43% reduction and can't meet it, what happens.

That would probably require a change of government, or even multiple changes of government.Not if the government un-legislates the target first.

That's right, I keep forgetting it is a third world developing country.Mate, we just close everything down at let China make the stuff
Didn't you know they are exempt from the virtue signalling rules
Yeah, I just don't understand why Australia doesn't just follow NZ and kowtow to everything China demands.Well it looks like patching up the friendship with China, is far more problematic than first thought.
Albanese pledges Australia’s return to golden age with China
Labor leader Anthony Albanese says Australia’s tricky relationship with China won’t be changed overnight, but if he is elected he hopes to oversee a return to business with the superpower.thewest.com.au
Well that was the intent, it doesn't seem to be panning out that way.
China delivers blow to Albanese after 'unacceptable' act
The fallout from Australia criticising China's Taiwan retaliation continues with yet another scathing message. Find out more.au.news.yahoo.com
Foreign ministry issues lengthy list of demands
As it did over and over again with the Morrison government, the foreign ministry warned Mr Albanese to change his government's ways, suggesting he is heading the way of his predecessor.
"We urge the Australian side to develop a clear understanding of the situation," he told reporters.
"Pursue the right course, respect China’s core interests and major concerns, abide by the one-China principle, observe basic norms governing international relations, stop interfering in China’s internal affairs, stop saying or doing the things that undermine regional peace and stability, refrain from echoing or assisting certain countries’ misguided strategy of using the Taiwan question to contain China, and avoid creating new obstacles for China-Australia ties."
I guess it's because we sell more than lamb and kiwi fruit to them.Yeah, I just don't understand why Australia doesn't just follow NZ and kowtow to everything China demands.
