The best part of the whole interview is the first time Di Natale is shown on camera with a "what the gently caress have I gotten myself into" look.

Happy Monday, I saw a few things in the news today thatstood out as amusing if they weren't so sad/stupid. To kick it off, guess who had a big mug of their own bathwater with their cereal this morning? quote:Treasurer Joe Hockey believes global growth would much slower today if it had not been for Australia's G20 leadership last year that saw world leaders agree to a two per cent growth target. quote:Don't waste any time worrying about it: Australia is heading into a recession. There are several indicators pointing in this direction, but what will guarantee the slide into the economic doldrums will be the fallout from the Abbott government's first policy "initiative". I guess it shouldn't come as a surprise that the LNP's numbers were dodgy in the last election quote:Two years on from the Coalition's 2013 election victory, one of the three experts who "independently verified" its campaign costings has been found guilty of breaching auditing standards. Cambodia, so poo poo that people are prepared to face persecution back home than live there in a luxury mansion. quote:One of four refugees sent to Cambodia in a $55 million deal with Australia only three months ago wants to quit the impoverished nation. gay picnic defence fucked around with this message at 21:54 on Sep 6, 2015 |

I think they claim that coal power has the ability to lower its normal emissions by half (by using technology that hasn't really been developed anywhere yet and won't be available in Australlia until the mid 2020s)

Laserface posted:So what the gently caress do you do if you are swabbed and they detect something you used days ago? just admit that you smoked a joint 2 days ago but not in the last 4-8 hours? Marijuana use is a fine of up to $750 and no jail time normally. Failing a roadside test is up to $450 and three month license suspension for the first offence, up to $1800 and minimum 6 months cancellation of your licence plus a possible conviction on your record for multiple offences. If you're deemed to be impaired by the drugs it's up to $1800 and minimum 12 month license cancellation for the first offence, or up to $27,000 or 18 months jail and minimum 2 year cancelled license for multiple offences.

Easy win for the greens. Di Natale was very impressive. He was especially impressive at the end of the interview where he saw off Bolts nonsense easily. So bolt if anything has won the greens some votes. Di Natale might just be the most impressive politician in Australia. It's a big claim but he is articulate and can speak across audiences. He handled Bolts union bashing better than an alp politician would.

"gently caress, this doctor bloke is alright yeah? And he used to play footy? Fuckin hell." Who knows, maybe he can win the 'I vote for him because he likes sport and fitness' crowd. That certainly seems to exist from my experience with people talking about Abbott.

The coverage of the refugees in Austria has been amazing. You can really see the differences between different channels and their agendas. They even slip up and call them refugees rather than asylum seekers sometimes!

Those plans were dashed as amazingly the government isn't quite so stupid as to give out bags of unmarked bills to refugees themselves - when border fart has cash to burn they prefer to more directly line the pockets of people smugglers.

Yes but don't you see, they are a burden. It costs so much to torture the ones we have already, imagine how much it would cost to torture another million of them

It implies that they are seeking asylum, whether they require it or not, where as refugee implies that we have already determined they should receive it.

See, if Abbott was smart (he isn't) then he would bring in 200K refugees. He would be able to break the back of the spoiled CFMEU Aussie brickie by flooding the market with 50K relatively unskilled people who would do anything to feed their families. Someone who crossed the ocean on a boat, even if it was "only" to improve his family's life, isn't going to sit around on welfare so his kids can be the same. I mean it's not like we haven't seen migrants move up the socioeconomic ladder before. Hell, he could even say that they're allowed to work, but can't get benefits for five years. As a lefty, I wouldn't agree with this, but I'm sure most refugees would and he'd be able to sell it to the bogan base no problem. Sure, we have an infrastructure problem supporting a rapid growth in population, but that can be overcome. The injection of energy, youth and drive into our economy is worth the refugees' weight in gold, but of course our politicians and citizenry are far too blind, racist and short term selfish to realise this.

This seems like a bizarre semantic twist. It's very hard to reinterpret asylum seekers into "they're just seeking asylum.. for fun?!" whereas refugee is not only easier to redefine but is already being turned derogatory in the form of the dimunitive "Fugee".

I've never heard that term outside of the late nineties band. The term refugee implies they're proper refugees, with protected status, and hence we should help them. "Asylum seekers" says these browns might not be proper refugees They stopped using "boat people" because they didn't want us to think of them as people either.
