    Is a cashless society in Australia closer than we think?

    Then you are part of the problem of being led, like a sheep, to your own slaughter. Don't you get it? It is about control. Have a look at the Chinese social credit system. You say the wrong thing and the can freeze all your money just like that. Are you really that gulluble that you would fall...

    Australian airlines faced with new problems as plane seats ‘shrink’

    I'm sick and tired of fat people complaining!! If you want to be fat knock yourself out but don't expect me to cater to your food addiction by subsidising your seating.

    This tape hack is ‘life changing’, according to a pro

    It takes a spy site like TikTok to show me something I've been doing for at least 45 years. What's next? Are they going to show us how to make fire or maybe how to invent the wheel?

    Accusation of unsanitary meat display at Woolworths sparks heated debate - Which side are you on?

    Unfortunately we've all become "Truckatarians" and with transport companies collapsing this will only get worse in future. Look at Scotts transport as an example. I've been warning people about this situation arising for years and was laughed at and ridiculed for years. I wished I was wrong but...

    Accusation of unsanitary meat display at Woolworths sparks heated debate - Which side are you on?

    You are right up to a point. I certainly hope there is no huge personal information gathering and targeted advertising on this site. I also haven't seen any " influencers" here. Have you?

    Accusation of unsanitary meat display at Woolworths sparks heated debate - Which side are you on?

    I agree it's much better to cook at home. I have been in some restaurant kitchens as I have several friends that were chefs. "Were" is the operative word. One now runs a bakery and the other works as a gardener. I know that there are certain things with meat and chicken you just should not do...

    Accusation of unsanitary meat display at Woolworths sparks heated debate - Which side are you on?

    As a vegetarian have you looked into how, and how long some of your fruits and vegetables are stored and what they do to them to make them appear fresh? My father was an industrial chemist and food technologist and used to work for some of the largest food manufacturers in Australia. What he...

    Accusation of unsanitary meat display at Woolworths sparks heated debate - Which side are you on?

    Being a "celebrity chef" you've obviously haven't spent much time in restaurant kitchens or you never eat out. I agree in hygiene but being a "cotton wool" person stops your body from building up its natural resistance against all sorts of germs that live in our natural environment. The reason...

    Accusation of unsanitary meat display at Woolworths sparks heated debate - Which side are you on?

    Posting it on Farcebook says it all. How many likes did I get? The people on these platforms ought to go out and get a life. Don't realise that all this social media is depressing bullshit?

    What's wrong? Well how about a useless, leftist, woke poor excuse for a public broadcaster costing us over 1 BILLION dollars a year. Get rid of the ABC and put that wasted money to some good use!!

    Public outrage as ABC staff plan a strike after being offered a $1,500 bonus and 10.5% pay rise

    Firstly the ABC really stands for Always Broadcasting Crap. The leftists , woke "journalists wouldn't know what reality was if it bit them on the arse. They are over paid, over rated and a total waste of tax payers' money!! Look at Paul Barry. He get $200K and 10 staff members to produce and...

    Roald Dahl publisher’s crackdown on 'offensive' language receives backlash: ‘Absolutely insane’

    The political correctness agenda has gone mad. It is set to divide everyone just like the LBTGQ, alphabet people. Stop shoving the lunacy down our throats. It is all about controlling everything we see and hear. That's why main stream media is dead and no one really trusts what is printed in the...

    Great grandfather launches emotional lawsuit against nursing home after tragedy strikes

    My 96 year old mum died last Friday at a nursing home. Most of the staff were great but there were a few tyrants and the general manager is an absolute bastard. Just one example, Why would you give someone a morphine injection before meal time? The way I see it they shortened my mum's life. I am...

    Scientists warn that popular scented candles and diffusers may be damaging your health

    No I don't ignore things and move on. That's is exactly why Australia is in the sad state it is in. Apathetic people ignore things instead of calling it out. By not calling out and questioning "the science" you are part of the problem. I don't want to be railroaded by some ,so called "educated...

    Scientists warn that popular scented candles and diffusers may be damaging your health

    I think that the biggest problem is these, so called, scientists that keep coming up with this. Are they looking for more funding or just trying to stay relevant? One day something is good for your health and a few months later it is bad for you. After being told over the last few years that "...

    'The audacity!' Tenant's plea for help with flooding ignored by landlord

    I did the same with my property. The first lot of renters were great. We spoke directly if there were any problems and became friends. I didn't put up their rent as preferred good, long term tenants. I was devastated when they moved interstate for a really good job opportunity. The next tenants...

    'The audacity!' Tenant's plea for help with flooding ignored by landlord

    It's unfortunate that you have to hit them over the head with a cricket bat to get their attention when you've been knocking on their door for ages. What gets me is how "surprised" they are when you take action because you have to when it could be solved easily with a bit of empathy. A lot of...
