I'd personally vote for an extra special camp for people who take trolleys through self service checkouts. They always scan their poo poo really slowly as well.

This is a legit awesome idea. The GoLounge is great and the perfect place for goons to feel safe and loved.

Or people who take trolleys through the basket only lane at Woolies. Or people who clearly have more than twelve items. In fact, how about an entire "supermarket faux pas" compound?

You know how there was rumour that the federal Liberal Party want to make businesses party members and to give them a vote? Well, it would seem they're trying it out in Sydney. You see, they hate Clover so much they want to give businesses the vote. No, that's incorrect. Two votes

And not just give them the vote, but make it compulsory for them to vote.

They already HAVE the vote, but that's apparently not good enough, because business owners, unlike poor people, can't be expected to pull their identification and enrollment every year.

ICAC has found that NSW Labor did a bunch of corrupt poo poo too, and there's still plenty of time for more to come out.

Labor is also starting from well behind (although not as far as they are in Queensland).

The answer is, mate, because I want to do you slowly. There has to be a bit of sport in this for all of us. In the psychological battle stakes, we are stripped down and ready to go. I want to see those ashen-faced performances; I want more of them. I want to be encouraged. I want to see you squirm.

The current NSW opposition leader (John Roberston) "forgot" to tell police he was offered a $3 million bribe from a property developer (Michael McGurk) who was later murdered by another property developer (Ron Medich).

The bribe was offered over the sale of a ~unions NSW~ property as well :laugh:

NSW Labor are rotten to the core as well. Remember, it was ICAC getting Eddie Obeid and Ian Macdonald that got the Liberals in in the first place.

The Libs will lose a fuckton of ground, but losing government isn't a guarantee. They're still ahead on polling.

Also as far as Queensland goes, a fun anecdote. My American brother-in-law decided to start reading up about Australian politics. He's fairly politically aware, but Yanks just don't get much information about us.

His first statement regarding Australian politics? His first conclusion after beginning his research?

"gently caress Queensland. Seriously."

I joined despite their reputation, but I've only been a member for a month or two and haven't been to a meeting yet so can't say first hand.

What I've heard in this thread is that they tend towards the the gaia-earth-loving-pot-smoking-crystals-and-hugs-but-certainly-no-vaccines end of the greens spectrum, instead of the inner-city-cappucino-sipping-lets-build-more-solar-panels version that us technophiles would prefer to see with the balance of power.
