I know I am a drug taking left leaning brain damaged idiot BUT surely this is a bad idea.

All the "perceived" deterrents have failed, all the policing has failed, the billions spent on the "war on drugs" has failed, the lives lost on the war on drugs have failed. These YOUNG adults have still chosen to attend an event and risk prosecution by smuggling drugs in to the event.

Is sending in the dogs the best idea after they have had a few drinks, and possibly some of their contraband??? To catch a few small time dealers and a few users???

Vision?

That was more like basilios art of the pitch. Not a word on the ugly reality of post modern Marxism they espouse.

How about an explanation of "the ugly reality... (your gobbledygook)...they espouse"

I just think they are going in the wrong direction.

Almost everyone can agree with environmental conservation, but by pushing fringe issues like refugees, drug legalisation, "social equality" they are losing a lot of people who may otherwise be conservative but want to protect the environment as well.

The grassroots members are being sold identity politics and class warfare, under the guise of environmental conservation.
The same bs Russia used, then locked up- or killed those not with the program.

Its diseased thinking. Their attacks on Molan were telling. They should be called out for being marxists zealots.

"Australia should follow NZ and make three-year uni degrees free, Greens say"

https://www.theguardian.com/austral...d-make-three-year-uni-degrees-free-greens-say


"Australia should follow New Zealand in making three-year university degrees free in response to increasing employer demand for bachelor-level qualifications and to help reduce inequality, the Greens say.

Following the New Zealand prime minister, Jacinda Ardern, pledged to introduce three years of free tertiary education by 2024 as part of her election campaign last year, the Greens’ education spokeswoman Sarah Hanson-Young commissioned modelling to measure the cost of introducing the policy here.

Compiled by the independent Parliamentary Budget Office, the modelling shows the policy would cost the budget $4.8bn across the forward estimates and $27bn over the next decade."

But nothing compared to the 50 billion to be wasted on what will be outdated submarines.

The Collins Class came in for some stick, but I'm told by those who should know, they are extremely formidable with the latest and greatest tech.
 
A retired General or something was saying they sunk some U.S. Subs or Ships in war games. He was singing their praises.

I recall the Sheehan took out the then pride of the US sub fleet Olympia in war games when the experts were all saying the Collins class should be junked.

It has long range travel ability too.

She is going about education the wrong way, its outdated policy that belongs in the 50s. Those from better off families still benefit more. Also the hecs debt has it about right.

Education needs a total revamp. Not to mention that jobs will be drying up over the next 50 years.
In saying that, its still better than nothing.
