I got a picture of Kens Doppelganger.
Bad angle as he was about to get off. I can try to get a better picture tomorrow.

Please don't take sneaky photos of people innocently going about their business and put them on the Internet. Whoever he is he deserves more respect than that

I've deleted the post- tomorrow I'll ask him if he's related

Nah Labor wont be courting the Greens. Look at the where the Greens are throwing the overwhelming majority of their resources for the house of reps, at a few inner city seats in Sydney, Melbourne and Hobart, that are traditionally safe Labor seats. They aren't going hard at traditional or marginal Liberal seats. Labor aren't happy about losing long term members, who are ex ministers and potential ministers in any new Labor government.

Well yeah, exactly, thats what I was saying. Why wouldn't a Lib loving newspaper be keen on pointing out disorganisation/conflict on the left?

I've got a 980 STRIX, the best card i've ever hard. It runs completely silently 90% of the time, the fans only turn on when it gets warm. I played the entirety of FO4 without the fans turning on once, and that was during some fairly warm weather too. Nothing has pushed it yet.

Mine is a STRIX too. We should be friends.

News media don't even try to hide their bias anymore

The only good thing about this election is it doesn't fall during AFL finals

Trickle down economics started off as a joke during the Depression Era, attributed to Will Rogers

"money was all appropriated for the top in hopes that it would trickle down to the needy."​

The phrase was meant to criticise the stupidity of the idea. In the past, a similar idea was also highly criticised by real economists. In the late 1800s the idea money to the rich would assist the poor was referred to as the "horse and sparrow theory".

"... the trickle-down approach to economic policy—what an older and less elegant generation called the horse-and-sparrow theory: 'If you feed the horse enough oats, some will pass through to the road for the sparrows.'"

Chris Pyne is a rabid Crows supporter.
Chris Pyne is a rabid Liberal
Chris Pyne is the Member for Sturt

Just so, so wrong on every goddamn level.

When is the election anyway? I only just twigged there would be one by reading this thread.

And people think there isn't a class war/divide attempting to gain momentum in this country!

Is there a single headline on that page that isn't oozing right wing?

Hidden treasure?

 

[Portia]

Hidden treasure?

I think the crossover between Liberal voters and people with access to high-price artworks just laying about somewhere is probably high enough for it to count

 

[I Dont Care]

Cheese. I want cheese with my toast. Cheese for everyone

 

[Dylan8]

Hidden treasure?

Another term for secret offshore accounts. Right wing.

I hated when Paul Keating was Prime Minister, but now I miss him. He could use words...my god he could use words. Words are important...no-one knows how to use them in politics nowadays
