olympic politician

Here I was, thinking that Kate Chaney was simply a typical "teal politician." with no platform, no policy, no loyalty except perhaps to her semi-anonymous backers.

Today's paper reports that she is a "serial back-flipper -- in a swing seat --  who could not be trusted".

With those flipping skills, she could be our next Olympics gymnastics champ. Go Kate!

I really should strengthen my legs with exercise

false housing crisis

we encourage first home buyers to "enter the housing market"

politicians throw money round to make the first house purchase cheaper.

all this does is to encourage investors.

we need to define housing as being property for living. and remove all government funded support.

yes. in particular, remove negative gearing from property for living.

the owner can still have a profitable investment, earning rent.

this will remove the artificial price rises of investors using property to offset profits from "real" investments.

over time,market forces will bring prices of living property down. to a level where it will be affordable for people who want a property -- or an investment -- for people to live in.

as property for living prices fall, rental prices will also fall.

basil blind to perth

zempilas, opinion Point 9 certainly has a strange view of perth's "unique origin story".

he has thrown out the kebab sculpture. the WA designed and built collection of WA rocks mined in WA.

To be replaced by the dancing spaceman. a sculpture designed and built by an American. a reminder that we should dance while we enjoy a stay at a articular Caribbean resort.

what will basil choose to represent all of WA? 

perhaps the rather large shark sculpture from the same resort?

insensitive, perhaps, but at least it is appropriate.

change the date keep the name

Celebrate Australia Day on the last Friday in September. 

... a day on which

... in 1984

every Australian gained equal say in our democracy. 

Read our -- Australia's -- combined history.

forget hatred of anything Whyt.

read about the 1984 Bill for indigenous voting. 

a win for Blak and a win for Whyt.

Celebrate democratic equality.

Or just shut up and accept 26th Jan.

...

If all else fails -- get a bigger hammer

Sister Kate

an indigenous group has identified a Sister Kate's Cottage as a centre of a stolen generation.

now, 40 or more years after the cottage closed. the group has gained ownership of the cottage.

from here the normal process would involve a demand for an apology and millions of dollars "compensation". Because cash is a great cure-all for any emotional, spiritual or cultural hurt.

but no!

this group want to sit and talk... and heal

the old people will tell what it was really like.

the 

young people will tell what it was all for.

the aim is to gain healing and n understanding.

good on them.

it sounds brilliant.

I hope it is beneficial.

friendshit?

the US under Trump is doing things with tariffs which may affect the profits of Aus businesses.

so aus politicians remind US politicians of the years of strong us/aus friendship, and ask for special allowances to be made.

and in the name of that mutual friendship, qhat will aus do for the us?

well... same as last time -- we will take advantage of the us concessions and misuse them -- to our own advantage. 

it seems that the supposed us/aus friendship is very much one way.
