One country leader = OMG what a brilliant job she is doing, leading the world in how to manage the virus.

The other countries leader = pathetic, too slow to make a decision, just following others.

What the stats show us:




Hmmm, not much difference AT THIS STAGE.

Equal on deaths per 1 million population but we have done more testing per 1 million population.

But something something NRL, something something dragging the chain.

I think some peoples ideology has coloured their view (on both sides of politics), going on pure stats rather than the vibe - Aus v NZ have strikingly similar numbers.

Like I said, I don't think Queensland are purposefully legalizing squatting, it's a consequence of their poorly written law

Why are you splitting hairs with me? I know they aren't literally legalising squatting.

Again this is bullshit that ignores share housing realities

One of our housemates moved out, we replaced her with a new one

Subletting as far as I'm concerned is if you start turning the back shed into a room without telling anyone or something like that

Subletting is when a person on the lease rents out part of the property to someone not on the lease.

In this situation it's you that's taken on the risk of your... sub-tenant? not being able to pay, not the landlords. They have nothing to do with it

OK, but the thing is - and the reason the question was asked about whether she was on the lease - OK, you had a housemate who was sharing the rent. She was not on the lease. She has left and can't come back to collect her stuff because COVID. This is a problem. But it is not the landlord's / REA's problem, there's nothing they can or should do.

Citrus yes, the rest is the Hills

Grapes too - biggest wine region production on quantity.

 

[radiojake]

so basically you guys think as the new housemate hadn't replaced the old housemate on the lease, I've got no argument?

As it was the lease expired in December and the real estate agent only finally got the new lease sent out in late February

But yeah thay stuff is our fault

Supermarket Manager goes bang from outside 50m. Launches one.

Bogans need to learn a hard tough lesson, which is ironic because following the pandemic is going to be very very hard on some.

Supermarket boss’s blunt reply to toilet paper hoarder wanting refund

“I had my first customer yesterday who said he wanted to get a refund on 150 packets of 32-pack toilet paper and 150 units of one-litre sanitiser.” In 150 packs of 32-roll toilet paper there would be 4800 individual rolls.

‘He’s the problem’: Supermarket boss gives finger to customer who wanted refund on 5000 rolls of toilet paper

A supermarket boss has given one of his customers the bird after it’s claimed the man tried to return almost 5000 rolls of toilet paper and 150 bottles of hand sanitiser which he couldn’t sell online.

These types of bulk buy people should be handed massive fines & have their goods donated the needy.

 

[Mr_Moogle]

Are you suggesting getting the lease changed every time someone moves in and out?

Some places would do that multiple times a year

Are you really this dense? You would first need to ask permission to sublet, then yes you would need to sign a new lease. It doesn't take long to write up a new lease so who cares if you need to do it multiple times a year?

No surprise here. Trump stopping funding to WHO.

I believe the US funds the WHO to tune of approx $450M per year. By far their biggest donor.

table grapes too, an old business partner of mine up Renmark way has been making making a motser out of his red globe table grape vines so much so he's expanded buying a property over the border near Red Cliffs and so much that in recent times he's set his brother up with a property near Carnarvon in WA.

Since the I plan on attending the Rugby comment, Morrison has done a very competent job.

Prior, not so much... but all forgiven as he when got serious, he got moving.

The lease is designed to protect both the tenant and the landlord. The only people with an obligation to pay rent are those that are named on the lease. If you didn't ask permission to sublet and you didn't put your housemates name on the lease, it's your own damn fault. Boo ******* hoo.

These lefty dope smoking teachers think that anyone can move in with them, they don't seem to realise they are living in someone else house.

It's not about being left or right leaning. It's just common decency.

A business is also an investment. Do you have sympathy for all those people going out of business?

I'm a landlord but I'm also a working class person on an average wage. Laws that allow tenants to bail on their rent could bankrupt me and I don't even have the option to just move into the place myself.

This is the type of pressure that will force the government to think about reducing restrictions. It gets so complicated when trying to look at things from every angle. With any rule that gets brought in there is a complex domino effect plus people trying to exploit the situation for their own advantage. So the government can either solve all issues in a way that is fair for all parties and immune to manipulation... (impossible). Or open things up again.

 

[Vader]

Heard this on the radio an hour or so ago... first thing that I instantly thought about the hoarder’s predicament was;

hahahahaha... sucked in you grub.. EAFD you *******.

It is just so good to see karma catching up with some of these idiots.

I just wish the supermarket operator had offered to buy them back for 5c per pack.

Is it really that complicated though? Like how can Queensland justify tenants not having to prove financial hardship? If I lost my job today and had to go into Centrelink, they would probably ask me to prove that I lost my job with a letter from my employer. Why should it be any different for tenants? If they have legitimate financial hardship, they should be able to prove it. Allowing them to just bail on that, is like putting everybody on the honour system, it's a disaster waiting to happen.

You mean the lease? No, she is not on the lease

That is why I asked the question
