I'm not interested in what races you think are scum, Gough Suppressant. You're always filling this thread with your moronically offensive caveman thoughts. You drop them all over the place like Cartoon turds in a haphazardly arranged grid.

Piss off.

And yet he is still a better poster and person than you.

That is either the most brain-damaged DNS redirect made by a political entity I have ever seen, or the very model of a Good Domain Snype.

First answer is correct. The LNP registered it.

I think NationBuilder was used by Adam Bandt's 2013 campaign as something of a pilot program, to see whether it was worth it. I'm pretty sure it's now getting some use in the Victorian Greens campaign- for the state election this November.

I know WA Greens took a look at that and went "Yes Please" and got Scott re-elected basing the campaign off the same principles. From what I heard it was pretty targeted, in that door knockers were given a set list of houses to go to in each street.

Isn't Rupes doing the same exactly front pages for some (all?) his UK rags as well?

Oh no, Rupert would never tell his editors what to write. Ever. That would be unethical.

It's wonderful. He cries and moans that special interest groups should shut up and bend over so his special interest group can have even more money shovelled towards them, and bemoans the budget situation while advocating for less tax revenue for the government.

These people all went to university, how is it possible to know what you're doing is wrong and then do it anyway like that? How can someone so educated be so monumentally selfish? :negative:

Money.

The depressing bit is that it's not stupid huge amounts of money and that our future is being sold out for middling amounts of pocket change.

What a terrible question.

And yet you don't want a government comprised of the vestigial remnants of the alp left and the greens. What other conclusion should I draw?

I think this is what people mean when they say that perfect is the enemy of good.

There used to be some kickass bakerys when I lived there as well. Germans love their pastries apparently.

The news is reporting this as if it's a thing that is already happening and will continue to happen but is there anything stopping the high court from saying "no" a third time? How does ferrying the money to the states first make this any more viable?

Because to my knowledge, high court rulings are fairly specific. If they ruled that the funding method was unconstitutional, then changing the funding method gets around that ruling. Someone would need to bring a new challenge on a new basis to get it struck down again.
