The Albanese government

[Sean K]

My youngest grandson was born at 24 weeks, looked like a drowned rat.
His skin was almost translucent, weighed in at just under a kg, lived in a humidicrib and spent his first 12 weeks at the neonatal icu unit at Monash.
I was looking at things realistically, and I did not think he would survive, or if he did , would have physical and cognitive issues.
He has just had his first birthday, is crawling, is in the top decile for height and weight for his age, and eats like there is no tomorrow.
The paediatricians say there is nothing wrong with his hearing, his eyesight or whatever else they test for.
We know there is nothing wrong with his lungs, as he is quite vocal.
Miracle as far as I am concerned.

Wow! Humans are born too early as it is to cope with getting through the birth canal. Maybe early birth is to cope even further with that, but not good for the baby, of course. When you think about it, our evolution and birth process is quite incredible. We're all lucky to have made it through. Is there another animal that required years of care after it pops out before it can look after itself? Even a giraffe falls out and stands up straight away. They can't knit though, I suppose.

Yes, many humans need varying degrees of care, from birth to death.
No other species does that, other than the ones that canabalise.

Primates do it, plenty of photos of monkeys and apes carrying babies around while still nursing.

I read somewhere that it is to do with our big fat heads, the ladies would split in half during birth if we waited any longer

Not when the baby is three quarters of the way through their lives and twice the size of the parent. Lol

With consideration as to the industry policy push by albernese to get this country in some way competative with the US IRA initiative

what about this as a thought bubble 'Commo Albo Climate Policy Disaster make'n Aust Rich'a'

Another good one would be 'Albo starts backfilling the hole, Uncle Paul dug in the the 1980's' .
Or maybe 'Albo to rebuild the solar panel manufacturing plant, that went out of business last time Labor were in' Lol.

There you go @orr Something for you to work with, that should get your creative juices flowing. Lol

There's one thing for sure, neither side of politics can take the moral high ground, when it comes to the sad state that Australian manufacturing finds itself in, Albo is at least acknowledging the issue.

 

[wayneL]

The most thin skinned and authoritarian prime minister in our history. Third World attitude here.

One of Anthony "Smash Her" Albanese's finest misogynistic moments. He really is a revolting man when he lets his mask slip.

What specifically are you objecting to ?

 

[wayneL]

What specifically are you objecting to ?

You mean apart from the lying, gaslighting and grandstanding?

 

[SirRumpole]

"Smash her" is an accusation that needs to be justified.

I don't think he is a mysoginist , just a politician and I think that government gets blamed for a lot they have little control over.

By the standards applied to the right, he is absolutely a misogynist.

Most of yhe left are obviously speechless, they have never had crap laid on them since 2013, you will probably find the elites of Melbourne and Sydney are in for trauma counselling this week.

 

[UMike]

Absolutely the worst government I have even seen.

But nothing ever sticks. They are never held accountable.

Rumours circulating on X that Albo is about to challenged.

By whom ?

Maybe Elon started the rumour.

Lmao!

Government prints $300 per household to sling to the plebeans
