    Should employees be fired for refusing service over politics? THIS Subway flag row divides Australia

    Does this moron not realise that she has the freedom to behave like this because of the thousands of Aussie men and women who died under this flag fighting for her freedom?

    From single mum to political powerhouse: Pauline Hanson's remarkable revelation

    You can look at things in that light if you wish, but I prefer to take the view that her story proves that anyone can make a success of their life without a tertiary education. That's providing you regard financial gain as success. I personally don't. There are many thousands of Australians...

    From single mum to political powerhouse: Pauline Hanson's remarkable revelation

    I applaud your view of the ideal world, and wish it could be so. Unfortunately, there are too many groups, powerful groups, actively working to ensure that this can't happen. The first time I was called a cynic I was eight years old. I prefer the term 'clear eyed realist'. While ever the human...

    From single mum to political powerhouse: Pauline Hanson's remarkable revelation

    Now, I wonder if you've read her maiden speech in its entirety. I have and I agree that the 'swamped by Asians' was a very poor choice of words. It displayed a fear of the unknown, because I do believe she'd led a very insular life, in a stratum of society with little desire to learn about other...

    From single mum to political powerhouse: Pauline Hanson's remarkable revelation

    Please give examples of her 'racism, xenophobia, victimising and manipulation of the disenfranchised, warmongering, privatisation pushing, union bashing, anti-environmental stance and general divisiveness, and slavish support for corporates and the billionaire sector.' Just one example of each...

    Aussie seniors lose millions after Marketplace bed scam goes unchecked

    Several months ago, hubby answered an ad for a mobility scooter. Now, it's dollars to donuts that anyone interested in a mobility scooter is a senior. She begged hubby for a deposit because she and her partner were setting themselves up in their first home and she needed $100 to pay a deposit on...

    Mother’s 2 am research turns medical nightmare into survival story

    I had one of these on the base of my spinal cord. It wasn't discovered until I was 40 and displaying some weird neurological symptoms which didn't add up. As a child, I'd had episodes lasting six or so weeks with blinding headaches, nausea and dizziness. No reason could be found and in the end...
