Howard was awful but one of the greatest missed opportunities was in late 80s when UWS made a major breakthrough and while our governments dithered, a foreign phd student broke confidentiality agreements and with help from his government is now a billionaire running one of the largest solar...
Greens seem pretty decent on avoiding that sort of rort. Worst one of them did was refuse to leave public housing while being paid a fortune but that was more about a principle and the party made them do the right thing (back in 2005).
Yet public servants only get actual costs to a much lower limit paid and if they choose to stay at a house owned by a family member or friend they get zero. Easy solution, make pollies travel entitlements the same as public servants.
No they are cutting waste on an ongoing basis. As an example, there are 1000 extra senior executive public servants since 2019. Just getting rid of half of them won't impact services at all - in fact will probably improve them l and will save at least 20.million per year, probably more but I...
Hamas wanted Israel to react like this and cheers every deal Palestinian as it adds to their support and money for arms and their leaders luxury lifestyles. The only people actually suffering are the Palestinians living under the Hamas dictatorship

Our local CFA just ran an information night after the recent fires nearby. They said at the start, no discussion about the government will be allowed. Apart from the usual safety information, and how close it actually was to us. They asked for volunteers as they were working a lot of hours...
Good points but we don't need more taxes. Lots of money that is being wasted or spent on lower priority work by the government than critical safety functions. Easy to save money on cutting senior management, consultants, marketing (which is mostly political not government ), pointless...
If he is actually walked out then Collingwood shouldn't pay a cent from that day and in reality should be able to sue to recover some money paid.
Has it actually been confirmed he has left and won't be back?
No appeals if they are a non citizen. Should be some courtesy such as providing notice unless they are considered a risk of going into hiding. Entry into another country is a privilege not a right.
The government should be able to deport non citizens at any time however that was simple murder. they need jail time and they need to review training, procedures, weapons everything...
trying to work out some logic to justify keeping Green and adding Webster to the XI. Only thing I can think of is they have no faith in our batting and are playing for a draw.
