Plibersek must shoulder some of the blame for Labor's catastrophic loss.
Shorten's departure will help Labor. Just a horrible man.
And Shorten is simply unlikeable.
Isn't Adam Bandt the (Green) MP for Melbourne?
Three years of stable government will have the Liberals re-elected next time around too.
Global warming is still an hypothesis, not a theorem. It is perfectly reasonable to be sceptical to some degree.
Shorten struck me as a particularly unpleasant individual, and I think this image adversely affected his party's vote. Albanese is far more appealing.
I don't have a gun licence and only have a Soviet-made slug rifle (powerful enough to kill a rabbit mind you). However there are (at least) two arguments that can be made against disarming the citizenry: 1. How do you suggest the people defend themselves ...
Interests... such as putting food in their children's individual stomchs
The Venezuelans ARE sorting things out. That nice Mt Maduro just tried to load 20 tons of gold onto a plane that his ever-helpful Russian friends provided. I wonder if he was going to give the people of Venezuela a dividend from all that wealth generated ...
Er, our PM hates the oil industry and has shut a lot of their activities down in Taranaki. So won't be producing any cheap local oil any time soon.
Hillary got in first while Secretary of State, by selling the Ruskies a fair chunk of the US stock of uranium. Apparently Bill did very well out of some speeches he made in Russia just after that.
I dare says that's the motivation for a move away from productivity based compensation to the ridiculous so-called living wage.
Shouldn't that excessive wealth be confiscated and redistributed according to need?
Talking of Venezuela, I read that a shipment of gold about to be loaded onto a Russian plane was stopped. That wouldn't be Nicky-boy trying but failing to loot the remnants of the stunningly successful socialist economy, which has made nearly all ...
Oxfam - weren't some of their luminaries involved in kiddy fiddling?
Why not just kill them?
Yes this trade union leader and bus driver has continued the destruction and looting of a once prosperous country that started under Chavez.
Er, it is a union, as per the following definition: "a society or association formed by people with a common interest or purpose." For instance a trade union or credit union.
* not a real union Was the USSR a real union? Is the Student Union (building) at Otago Uni a real union? Is the European Union a real union? etc.
"Infamity" or infamy?
From memory the BCG vaccine has been shown to prevent miliary TB in the lung, and also TB meningitis, and is more useful and effective in neonates and young children. Thus it is no longer given in 13-14 year olds routinely, as it is less effective by that ...
No, Trump won the 2016 election by 304 to 227. Popular vote don't mean jack shit.
Ha! I was waiting for that. Only concentration camp I know of where the inmates eat better than the local population. Are you suggesting that detainees should have no medical care? And way off topic - the thread is about children being used as bargaining ...
OAF, you have a nasty spiteful way with words - the initial comment did not warrant that sort of venom. The left have used kids as bargaining chips, e.g. Time magazine with its fake photo of Trump looking down at a 'separated' child, who was not in fact ...
"A good women’s soccer team will shut down a mediocre men’s team." Anyone remember the Newcastle under-15 boys beating the Australian national women's soccer team 7-0?
The Red Hen had every right to eject Sarah Sanders from their premises. They have the right to eject anyone, for any reason, because they own the property. Guests remain there with the permission of the owner(s), which can be revoked at any time. Whether ...
Biden may yet stage a run, but he'll be 78 in 2020. Elizabeth 'Pocahantas' Warren may also run, but will be relentlessly mocked by Trump over her claim to have American Indian ancestry and her refusal to undergo DNA testing to see whether she's lying. Then...

Yes the US is a rogue state... but hang on a minute, if it's such an awful country why do all these Mexicans want to live there? As for the UN Human Rights Council, what are Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, Venezuela, Qatar, South Africa, Egypt, Cuba and China ...
