I for one, do indeed dislike all those 'halal certified' labels. Cool

So do the animals who have their throats slit and bleed out in agony. You ever wondered why there is that slight 'tang' to Halal meat? It's because the animals tense up during slaughter and the bile and other acids seep through the meat.

Guarantee all the useless Peta faggots are the same people protesting for more muslim immigration despite the fact that 'halal' meat is cruel, barbaric and devastating to the Australian farmer who humanely kills his animals.

Seven new has a report of a "right wing" group getting together to do something about the Melbourne African crime gangs. Without having watched it, the facebook comments are interesting.
There seems to mostly people saying it's about time or similar sentiments, then the others...

Wouldn't surprise me.

Didn't they have similar issues a while back in Dandenong and the local community started patrolling the streets at night to ward of the gangs?

Didn't see anyone accuse them of being "right wing", probably because they were mostly from the same ethnic groups.

Saw a clip on one of those pathetic morning shows detailing the intent to once again, change the flag.
Apparently the one design replaces the Union Jack with a seven pointed star (representing the states & territories).

Noting how the states are arbitrary lines on a map &/or notional.
Replacing one colonial / Commonwealth derived symbol with another colonial / Commonwealth derived symbol is important how...?

RE: The Australian politics thread
Was on the train today listening to a couple of aboriginals complaining about invasion day and no one wanting to sit near them because racist. Personally I think it had more to do with the feet on seats, spitting on the floor, swearing and general victim mentality complaining about white people, but I clearly don't know the struggle.

Don't forget it's race that meant the train stopped short and they had to change, not it's a hot day and there were slowdowns from the heat.


Fuck me, I'll never get that mentality.

Hope you all had a great Straya Day!

While in Melbourne, SJWs staged a huge protest bitching about changing the date, I took my wife deep into redneck QLD town to visit family friends and have that stereotypical Aussie Day celebration by the pool with lamb chops on the barbie and cold beers in stubbies. Couldn't have asked to have spent the day with a more genuine, easy going and generous bunch of people, completely opposite to their stereotypes in the media.

The Lord Mayor of Melbourne, Robert Doyle, has resigned and is in hospital, understandably, for stress after unsubstantiated "sexual" allegations, including "leg-touching":

Uh-huh. Tell me again why Bill Shorten, even if I believe he was/is innocent, didn't resign when the police were investigating him?

Disappointed to see Barnaby Joyce's affair getting so much air time. I don't believe that politicians personal lives should get dragged into the spotlight like this.
IMO it's not a matter of "public interest" just fodder for the gossip rags.

Take it as a sign of how boring & inconsequential most of Australian politics is.
When a thread about one man (Trump) can amass over 3000 pages.
Yet all of Australian politics amounts to a paltry 15 pages.

Damn we're a boring lot. Cool

Pro tip: spice up the thread with some news about people killed by sharks, brown snakes, Irukandji jellyfish, Funnel-web spiders and of course drop bears.

Bonus points if those people were registered members of a political party, which can lead to creative post titles such as "Nature rebels against Labor" and "For this conservative politician, the bite was worse than the media".

I would love to see a lengthy interview between ol' Barnaby & ol' Karl.
Then have neither even hint nor infer anything about their private lives. Would drive the latte set mad. Cool

Best I can do right now, is convey a bit from comedian Rick Ingraham's crowd work when he chat's to an Australian at the infamous LA Comedy Store :

I'm so sorry to hear about the death of your prime minister.

The PM is a dumbass for calling out his own deputy publically over this farce, and now there might be actual political repercussions in the form of either a resignation or a party split (or it fades like it should have 2 weeks ago).

This mole hill MAY yet become a mountain!

It's the state of Australian politics. We don't have enough real issues to argue about so this kind of bullshit gets blown up.

As CynicalContrarian said, Australian politics really is boring. We have it too good so we split hairs and make mountains out of mole hills.

At least at the start all sides of politics came out and said that Joyce's private life wasn't a matter for the public spotlight. Although that lasted about as long as a snowball in hell.

Just after the last federal election there was that ~2 week period of no sitting government & the country carried on just fine.
Perhaps we need another 2 week, if not 2 month, lower / upper house shutdown.
The rest of us can simply get on with the job.
