Australia could end the disadvantage endured by its indigenous population by opening up traditional lands as dumping sites for nuclear waste from around the world, a former prime minister, Bob Hawke, has said.

Hawke said he was confident that the answer to long-standing indigenous socioeconomic problems was to allow radioactive waste to be stored on Aboriginal land, and use the revenue to improve living standards.

What the gently caress is this poo poo.

No concession opal cards, sirens that flash to let security know someone has the balls to use a concession ticket, half of the paper tickets cancelled (namely the ones that save you money).

Gee, you don't think there's some sort of pattern here, do you?

I'm going to be mad as hell if concession multis get cancelled, get hosed Libs.

I feel like Opal could be good if not for the fact that the most incompetent idiots possible were put in charge of it.

You'd need to keep the ticket system though. I'm surprised there's no senior card released yet, surely the boomers will be pissed.

Someone who is a mildly more intelligent racist than the standard racist is running that page with the intention to get the standard racist riled up into hating Muslims moreso with the basis that this will then ensure more people align with their own lovely beliefs.

I'm pretty sure I've said this before, but when I did history in year 6-10 we were taught that Gallipoli was a great victory for Australia and our soldiers were hard men who fought against ten times their number and managed to get away cleanly by being ingenious.

I didn't learn we lost at school.

A movie taught me that.

I didn't know he considered himself to be intelligent. Every time I hear him speak he sounds like nothing more than a moderately articulate lawyer suffering from late-stage vampirism. His brainless stammering in that Sky News interview was not the performance of a man of any real intelligence or insight.

Someone insulted his intelligence and then the very next day everyone wouldn't stop talking about his mighty intellect because he's a giant baby mentally and physically who threw a tantrum behind closed doors.

If our media was vaguely competent, every time someone says something that blatantly goes against current scientific thought and cites "the studies" they'd ask them which loving studies in particular.

While I'm not a medical expert in any way, I can't help but imagine that something only referred to as "the studies" from the 1950s isn't the most up to date information, particularly in relation to loving cancer.
