We go to the pictures regularly. It's a 45 min drive. $10 for seniors unless an 'art' film. My partner loves the 'experience' and it is our most regular form of celebration and culture. There are still brilliant films being made around the world despite 90% of it screened here is US violent...

A sample of 100,000 to represent 8.2 billion? That's pretty poor odds.

‘Labor is seeking to reach everyone with our message that Australians value Medicare...' Labor yet again attempting to woo those further out on the right wing. Wake up, Labor! Look left and reclaim the centre.

Our only hope for real social justice is the centrist Greens who now sit where Labor once was before Hawke. Right-wing federal Labor has improved the destruction and corruption the Coalition wreaked on Australians for the last decade, particularly with health reforms, but has so far ignored...

If emergency services were alerted, and responded, to every bingle on Aussie roads, they'd need a massive injection of funds to match that requirement. Seems sensible to me that the govt has rejected that 'advance'. As to our cars monitoring our eyes and hands on wheel, enough of machines...

Gaol is just a training camp for organised crime.

In the last 75 years, apart from border skirmishes, China has been involved in 2 wars. USA has been involved in 37 wars, and that's ignoring all the countries they've seriously destabilised politically. Of the two, China is our largest trading partner, USA is our largest military partner. Both...

Remarkable story. Thanks, SDC.

Shock jocks. If no one listened, they'd be out of a job.

Macquarie, AU's most rapacious bank, followed by NAB. We're forced into their digital world and then they claim no responsibility when thieves copy their system.

Woolies are thugs who keep AU gambling any way they can. Only use them when no other course.

That is not any kind of analogy as electronic processing did not sack 3 workers where 4 were employed, nor was it more efficient re typing (except for editing and corrections). Garbos were laid off en masse as the hydraulics came in. Did offices become more streamlined and hire less workers...

I thought they were going to bring up the issues with electromagnetic radiation and blue light for deteriorating cognitive function, but no, they just claimed reading a book is more active than watching a film. Can't see their argument, and I'm a writer and editor. Activity is about the same, as...

'The shift to hydraulic lifters in rubbish collection aimed to alleviate the physical burden on workers and to streamline the collection process, particularly in urban areas.' The aim, as always with automation, was to employ less workers! Nothing to do with alleviating physical burdens.

Peppermint trees.

Altona? New York Minute? I initially thought this was in USA as I believe promoting on windscreens is illegal in AU and 'fines' are no longer placed on windscreens either. This company could find themselves the subject of a fine for this antic.

Yes, there are camping grounds but during the summer most are entirely booked out with holiday makers. At Margaret River the council opened up new camping areas for the season this year due to the overload and folks camping in the bush and around town facilities last year. It still is not enough...

Hale School, of course.

So you can't name any qualifications? The 'underqualified' Chalmers has 4 degrees, including a PhD, and an undergraduate in economics. If 'anyone would have done...this way back', why didn't the LNP? 1300 branches closed under their last stint, 2000 closed under current Labor (ABC) as digital...
