Religions deserve to practise freely and deserve some protection to hire who they want etc.Religious freedom, really.
Giving the PM's mates and pedophilic organisations more rights than the rest of us, priortised over cleaning up their own act
Disgusting.
The joke went on through the years and then Groucho Marx went for the comedy gold.He brought in the Provincial Loan Bill, declaring that, if the House did not accept it, he was prepared to adhere to his original proposal. It was something like the American legislator — “Them’s my principles; but if you don’t like them — I kin change them!
Frydenberg would be no change at all, deck chairs on the Titanic and all that.When Bolt calls it a day on ScoMo, it definitely is time to move on.
Josh Frydenberg is my guess as next leader of the Libs, Dutton is as unelectable as Shorten.
Well, they may sort it all out in 3 years.Frydenberg would be no change at all, deck chairs on the Titanic and all that.
And apart from anything else, Dutton has more of an authoritarian Impulse than anyone else in the Liberal Party. that would be a welcome shift to the right, but in my opinion not the right sort of right.
The Liberal party needs a Tony Abbott without the gaffs... And it just doesn't have one of those right now.
Yes, Abbott was another one that couldn't think on his feet, the media ran rings around him.The Liberal party needs a Tony Abbott without the gaffs... And it just doesn't have one of those right now.
Yes ALP bot!Not a LNP government deserving of re-election, and Albo can start choosing rhe curtains ar the Lodge.
Doesn’t that trigger the lefties. If the UAP were to do that it would push the greens out and watch how desperate they get with there usual gutter trash tacticsFor sheer amusement, I'd love to see UAP horse trading with the majors to form a coalition.... That would be funny
Well if you're going to drag out fails, let's do a few Labor ones:Abbott = LOL
Work till 70, no dole for under 30's, zero penalty rates, higher taxes on super for low income earners.
Yep, bring him back... Albo would get 3 terms... too easy
Religions deserve to practise freely and deserve some protection to hire who they want etc.
You probably find that most religions can do all of the above, these days it's only the Christians that can be put to the sword, the others already are protected species in Australia IMO.Religions deserve to practise freely and deserve some protection to hire who they want etc.
More a removal of a tax break for people who don't pay income taxWell if you're going to drag out fails, let's do a few Labor ones:
Wages accord, drop in real wages.
Tariff removal, loss of Manufacturing.
Using the military and overseas scab labour, to strike break.
Raising the retirement age from 65-67, not just talking about it, actually doing it.
Increasing qualification requirement for disability.
Removing tax advantage from established homes, give it to new builds and a bonus payment for the rich.
Higher taxes on low income earners, by removal of franking credits, from low income earners. But billionaires can keep theirs.
That's actually spread across most of labor's recent terms in office, so not just one leader, hopefully Albo doesn't continue the track record. ?
Lots of people have tax breaks or welfare payments, or lower personal income tax than what other generations had. If it helped keep people off welfare, it is doing a service.More a removal of a tax break for people who don't pay income tax
Lots as all wars do, I was lucky conscription stopped a couple of years before I was going to have to put my name down for Vietnam.What do you reckon Iraq cost us and for what
Point of order: notwithstanding the fact that some of this abhorent stuff has happened, that is not actually the practice of the religion at all. That is *people being total @ssholes. (and the reason that even though I call myself a Christian, I stay well the fark away from churches... In fact I find myself in open conflict with all of my local churches... I am giving them sh¹t)By all means let them hire and protect homosexual pedophile priests while telling the rest of us that homosexuality is a mortal sin.
I'm an atheist, so don't really care one way or another, but as you say it boils down to weird people.Point of order: notwithstanding the fact that some of this abhorent stuff has happened, that is not actually the practice of the religion at all.

Yes sure, but we are talking organisations as employers who want to discriminate, not individuals.Point of order: notwithstanding the fact that some of this abhorent stuff has happened, that is not actually the practice of the religion at all.

It's abuse of position and power for self gratification... and that transcends, in a negative way, one's purported beliefs, one way or the other.I'm an atheist, so don't really care one way or another, but as you say it boils down to weird people.
The reason they got into religion, is the same reason they gravitate toward clubs like the boy scouts, there is a supply of what they want.
Joe biden seeks to discriminate by appointing the next supreme court judge as both female and black.Yes sure, but we are talking organisations as employers who want to discriminate, not individuals.
Should I hire a Wiccan priestess to teach my children Catholic values?Yes sure, but we are talking organisations as employers who want to discriminate, not individuals.
If a school hires a maths teacher it doesn't matter wbat relgion they are.Joe biden seeks to discriminate by appointing the next supreme court judge as both female and black.
Let's suppose that I have children, which I don't, and wish them to have a certain religious education (whatever that may be). Should I consider a radical Mudjahad Muslim
