I'm an Australian, as a 16 ur old I'd slong my gun over mu shoulder and rodee my trail bike up the range to hunt for pet food. Drape a gutted dead roo over the back of my motobike and bring it jwome, meat for the dogs and skin it. No one batted an eyelid or said anything.

Now I'd be labeled a terrorist, have police helicopters chase me down and be in jail for decades.

And people complain that climate protestors hold up ambulances, even though they always let emergency vehicles through.

The US prenteded to be Australia's ally and friend, China is just another country who happens to be a great customer and that should be recognised but that's about it.

I'd pivot away from the US and try and forge better and closer alliances (more like we have with NZ) with places, The EU, Canada, Japan for tradr and defence but theres no warm embrace with China.

As an Australian I've long been a Green voter and their policy has been arms length from the US (and China)

That the US treats us with disdain has been obvious for decades.

You can make money betting the market will go down.

Sure but becase it's not productivity related its just swapping money. There ia no "winner", for every win there's a loss on the other side of that sort of trading.

And in Australia, we don't have any tarrifs on Cars. BYD keeps rocketing up the sales charts, along with Geely under all its combined labels.

No Seagulls here though.

Almost like they've always been afraid of war crimes laws actually applying to them...

Well, they did aet up the Nuremberg Trails and lots of what the prosecutors wanted to go after the Nazis for was taken off the table as the US Generals reminded them that was also the tactics of allies.

 

Get your kit off Melbournians and join in for the 20th anniversary this weekend.

 

WTF? Hers a better jdea, ban on steeet parking. Prove you have somewhere to park the car or not be allowed to buy it.

 

Ismail Mohammad pushes a buggy down the centre of a narrow road in east Bristol. His two sons stay close as vehicles could come from either direction at any moment. “There are cars [parked] on the pavement. We have to go on the road,” says Mohammad as he hurries to the boys’ primary school in Easton. “It’s dangerous because cars sometimes come fast through here.”

What in tarnation ? What a sorry state of affairs. Good luck to the council !

Bryher has little sympathy for drivers who claim they must park on pavements on narrow roads. “You need to park somewhere else instead … there are enough [spaces] for every­one to park in the city,” he says. “It’s just that you might have to park further away and you might have to consider whether you need a car.
