Hahaha, what the gently caress, Bishop is gonna spill now due to the Murdoch cycle pressure?

I'm still calling it, and it will be portrayed as her reluctantly taking on the leadership.

edit: Reckon there's a 50% chance that Bishop becomes PM in this term of government, and if she does the Coalition will romp in the next election because the Australian public look at the name of the PM over their policies.

My Little Tony: Leadership is Magic
Peter Dutton has a real penchant for just saying things that aren't true and being surprised when people point out they aren't true - apparently this ban on boat arrivals ever coming to Australia won't break our international treaty obligations, presumably because we broke them years ago.

Along with the welfare cards being pushed as a success, there's been some clamouring in some Kimberley groups for stricter rules around the sale of takeaway alcohol. There have been restrictions in place for years that haven't done much to reduce violence or public drunkenness, they've served to create a growing black market for alcohol while addressing none of the root causes of alcoholism in the community. Without addressing any of the social dysfunction and mental illness that underlies the alcoholism, more restrictions on what people can spend money on or how much alcohol can be bought haven't worked and I doubt they'll start working now.

Honestly I have no idea what the solution could be beyond a root and branch restructuring of pretty much every service to the community. A cohesive mental health service would be a start, as it is there's a mix of fractured and underfunded programs that struggle to help anyone with anything.

Uspol have had a rough day today with racism callouts etc, and after about 30 odd pages of meltdown, here's one post I thought useful to us too:

Lead out in cuffs posted:

OK, so I'll have a go at an effortpost.

1. Do your own homework on -isms. Don't expect people who are one the receiving end of racism, sexism, etc to have to bear the burden of educating the people on the giving end.

2. Understand that you benefit from a system of privilege founded on prejudice, that your voice is already amplified, and your perspectives given greater weight than people further down the privilege scale than you. http://www.ucalgary.ca/cared/whiteness

3. From 2, do your best to shut up and listen to what people further down the privilege scale from you have to say, without getting defensive. White fragility is real; work against it. http://www.alternet.org/culture/why-white-people-freak-out-when-theyre-called-out-about-race

4. Tone policing is also real, and is another way that privilege and prejudice are reinforced. Don't do that either. http://everydayfeminism.com/2015/12/tone-policing-and-privilege/

All very good reads even if you think you know this stuff. It's very helpful in understanding the angle of media too.

It does make sense for the LNP to work with Hanson on issues like immigration. The LNP need One Nation on board to pass their big business agenda through the senate and Hanson needs the LNP to get her entire agenda through parliament because she doesn't have enough elected in to legislate.

I would have thought that the LNP would have figured out by now that selling out to the left does not work and makes them even more unpopular amongst they silent majority then they would be otherwise. This is why Menzies and Howard had the longest serving governments in Australian history. Neither of them were "survivalists" both were born natural leaders.

If you want an example of a survivalist, then choose Labor and Rudd. He bought his second term by giving away all of the Howard / Costello Surplus.

WRONG

Pauline Hanson is only going to grow and surge. The people are fed up with far left communist turds controlling them with their PC slander. Pauline is going to make Australia great again and she's off to a great start. She's already pulled the LNP back on over to the conservative right where they belong and rightfully dealt with illegals entering Australia. Next she'll steer Australia out of the UN before we start beheading people for not being muslim.

Lets hope she's not to late.
