It may not have been a person - could have been an automatic security camera, they are very common these days.

Not the best of comparisons, I'm afraid- the PM is on incredibly generous remuneration. Better to ask how many employess 'on the ground' in his company it would take to equal his salary in wages.

The elderly, carers, and those on DSP are on payments which are already significantly higher than unemployment benefits. There are a growing number of people on unemployment benefits (particularly in the over-50 age group) who are too disabled to be employable but not disabled 'enough' to...

You persist in failing to acknowledge that you are twisting several different and unrelated figures together and coming up with an incorrect statement. You also persist in being rude and obnoxious. You are happy to judge people whose circumstances you don't know on the basis of what SOME other...

No, you are completely wrong. What happened in September was that the requirements to qualify for SPP changed, and SOME single parents who had previously not qualified then did. NO FOOL LIKE AN OLD FOOL!

Now you are just being rude! You are making assumptions about someone you don't know, as clearly is your habit given how judgemental you obviously are. NOT THAT YOU ARE ENTITLED TO THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION, I am giving it to you in an effort to educate you about assuming things! At the time...

Okay, so you have a problem with single parents, we get that. No need to be dishonest by misrepresenting what changed in September. Don't forget also, not all single parents become so by choice. I became a single parent myself after many years of marriage and 4 children because my husband...

I withdraw a fortnight's worth of cash when I get paid, and also keep an emergency stash of about a month's cash at home. After the big floods in 2022, there was no eftpos here for about 10 days due to no internet, and those who didn't have cash were in real strife.

A friend's daughter spent months prior to her wedding striking and nurturing cuttings from her mother's and some friends' gardens, planted them into cheap plastic picnic glasses then wrapped the 'pots' in foil, and attached the name tags for the tables to them. Two birds with one stone -...

Some of us train our dogs not to lick (especially faces), and our children not to allow them to. Dogs eat many things I wouldn't want near my face!

It goes both ways. Something I needed a while back was on the top shelf, and towards the back where I couldn't reach it. Most staff are pleasant and happy to assist, but on this particular day I was out of luck. There were 2 staff members a little way down the aisle from what I needed, one...

Very few people make it that far through the application process these days.

She's probably been consuming cochineal all her life, but suddenly it is an issue!
