The ScoMo Government

Looks like the media wants to bring it all to a head, these articles lead their website. ?
Well I hope Albo is up to the task, that the SMH is presenting, because it is very antagonistic and Albo will have to take sides.
IMO they are making it harder, not easier for Albo, just my opinion.

PM says social media being used by ‘evil one’, gives rare insight into Pentecostal faith

Prime Minister Scott Morrison has suggested social media could be used by “the evil one” to undermine Australian society, telling Christian leaders they are what the country needs right now.

Peter Dutton sues refugee advocate over ‘rape apologist’ tweet

The media is starting to ramp up the rhetoric, but like i said earlier, they may well cause another Labor loss..
The problem with the media is, they believe their own crap and expect middle Australia to swallow it.
Time will tell.

I'm still standing by my earlier prediction on here that Morrison will get three terms although I'd suggest winding down the religious rhetoric.

Not sure about that.

The stuff up over the shortage of vaccines, and his abrogation of responsibility for quarantine can be played by Labor.

The economy is a plus for him at the moment, I"m sure he's praying that it will stay that way.
 
Stop blaming the media!
If what is reported did not happen, then say so, rather than suggest it's dishonest.

A PM that actually thinks social media is manipulated by the Devil is somewhat worrisome. Maybe he is contemplating Priests' access to Medicare to perform exorcisms.

Then we have the heartless Dutton who is offended that his gutless remarks about women in detention should be attacked. The man is an insult to the human race.

And an ornament to the base of Liberal Party thinking... he is truely base.

But while he's rattling away like the Babadook, at night in Morrisons bedroom wardrobe playing to his primative superstitions, Duttons doing the country a small service.

What do you mean stop blaming the media, Rudd and Turnbull blame the Murdoch press for their ineptitude and failure, so why can't I blame the press?
I've heard you blame Murdoch for labor's failings. ?

Rudd and Turnbull point to media BIAS.
The media shape public opinion because a lot of people don't use their nous.
If WA had Murdoch media instead of Stokes' then McGowan's landslide may not have occurred. Measure that against Queensland's election where Labor had a tough time despite also being very successful against covid.

The point I am making, however, is that while their might be a "spin" on the story, most of the facts hold up.
Can you point to any previous PM that literally blamed the biblical Devil for some society ills?

As to Dutton, I definitely gave my opinion. What @orr said, above, pales compared to what I say about the creature.
 
This just plain creepy

Be careful boys, you may be done for religious vilification, as per the religious tolerance act of 2001. ?

The Racial and Religious Tolerance Act 2001 makes behavior that incites or encourages hatred, serious contempt, revulsion or severe ridicule against another person or group of people, because of their race or religion, unlawful in Victoria. The Act went into effect on 1 January 2002
 
There is no "incitement" here, so everyone is safe.
On the other hand, Morrison has made himself a laughing stock to a great many.
The PM is welcome to his religion but some of his views seem creepy, outlandish, and contrary to everyone who golds there is no such creature.
 
why contrary? All views are valid within an individual frame of reference.
Since when did you attain such high esteem among the great unwashed that you could count on my vote?

People can be as stupid as they wish.
If they believe in the Devil, and you or I do not then, logically, it is a contrary view.

All very true, but denigrating people because of their race or religious beliefs is poor form mate, as was proven in the Folau case.
I'm an atheist, but I respect the rights of those who feel they need the underlying belief, in a greater power.
Denigrating those that do, just shows a lack of empathy, understanding and inclusiveness, which seems to permeate through labor ranks unfortunately, the only god they seem to follow is their inner self righteousness.
The very same people, also seem to be lacking in any self appraisal ability, which causes them to trip up constantly. ?
 
Poor form is going around touching people where I come from
 
I don't know what to make of this, anyone?

Is it a warning to the Australian people or to the Federal Government? Pezzullo would know it would end up in the media.

Did the government put him up for it?

Whats it about?


Australian official warns drums of war are beating​


One of Australia's most senior security officials has said liberal democracies must brace for war while searching for peace amid elevated global tensions.
Home Affairs Department Secretary Mike Pezzullo said the possibility of war was increasing.
"Today, as free nations again hear the beating drums and watch worryingly the militarisation of issues that we had, until recent years, thought unlikely to be catalysts for war, let us continue to search unceasingly for the chance for peace while bracing again ... for the curse of war," Pezzullo said in a letter to staff on Anazac Day, which honours the country's war dead.
Pezzullo did not specify the catalyst for his warning but it follows a sharp deterioration in Australia's relationship with China and a rise in regional tensions over Taiwan."

I guess Australia is saying, it isnt going to roll over and pizz on itself, just because the big guy is asking them to do so.
Many other countries have a financial, family and social interest in Australia.
So I guess Australia has to decide what is most important, personal financial gain, or an affiliation with the Australian way of life, which many envy.
I did start a thread many years ago, should we sell Western Australia to the Chinese, the question is now starting to be asked at a national scale.
This will become a big political issue IMO,
 
Yet you said it was fair for someone (Folau) to not only be sacked, but also banned for life from ever plying his trade, because he made a slur that in your words (as stated above) is laughable.
Just shows how motivated you are by personal bias IMO.
 
Folau and Morrison seem to believe and say some really weird things.
However, Folau was sacked for a breach of contract, a fact which he admitted.
But your claims that I "said it was fair for someone (Folau) to not only be sacked, but also banned for life from ever plying his trade" are false.
I said if I were RA I would not have sacked him, and I said sport would be better off without him.
