That is getting harder to gauge with so many people working from home.Like paying their staff a fair wage for a fair day's work, etc.
A classic example that if you don't know why you're doing it then you shouldn't be doing it.How's that working out for Brexit???
Dumb as a bag of hammers...
Adams is an ideological idiot. He panders to the toxic fan club he has recruited in his echo chamber for years. Just glad twitter became more balanced to shine a light on these tossers.Yep.
From that link, quoting Hildebrand:
"..Imagine if it was said by Piers Morgan or Jeremy Clarkson about Meghan Markle. Imagine if it was said by Alan Jones or Andrew Bolt about anybody. And then imagine the white-hot nuclear outrage that would engulf the globe.
The silence you hear now is the sound of hypocrisy."
Adams made it up, and should come clean. And at least get some points for honesty.
The welcome to country bit is getting wearing, nothing wrong with encouraging people to be polite, but that's not enough for some Lefties who want STEM eliminated and replaced with basket weaving.Your children are being programmed
It wasn't many years ago that Australian trained tradesmen, engineers etc, were chased the world over, due to their broad based knowledge base and skills set.
The German training is extremely high, as was Australia's back in the 70's, 80's etc, I met a lot of great tradesmen and most moved on to greater things.Said it before worked with some young German electricians in the 80's they were light years above any other that I have come across hard to understand how the lost the war ?

The recent products of our competency based system, which was introduced in the 90's, IMO leave a lot to be desired.
I'm assuming this is a Lefty thing, but whatever it is, it's just nuts.
Maybe it's 'cancel culture' or 'go woke go broke' material as opposed to lunatic left.
Oompa-Loompas, once described as “small men” are now “small people” ?? WTF?

Or is it just a ploy to sell books? (answer = yes)I am with Rushdie. Roald Dahl is meant to be difficult, he would be furious with the changes.
They did a poll on the ABC and it came out 87% against it. To me it is defacing art.
Salman Rushdie calls revisions to Roald Dahl books ‘absurd censorship’
Recent changes in Dahl’s children’s books were a joint effort by the publisher and the Roald Dahl Story Company, which manages the works’ copyright and trademarks.www.theage.com.au
Or is it just a ploy to sell books? (answer = yes)
How many people are now going to rush out and buy the old Roald Dahl books before they get censored? Probably a lot.
How many people are now going to rush out and buy the new Roald Dahl books now that they are 'safe' for children, or because they are curious about the changes? Probably a lot.
All I know is that someone is going to make a whole lot of money from this. That's what it's all about. Making money. Need a lunatic capitalist thread.
