People seem to forget the electricity price rises (particularly the state govt ones unrelated to the carbon price) are meant to change behaviour. So whatever the circumstance if you don’t like the price rise stop whinging and blaming the goverment and get up and turn the ac off.

A complaint bas been lodged about an adver’t campaign that shows a carbon tax collector demanding money from a frail pensioner. An online copy of the advert was pulled, but it remains on you-tube.

Massively superior to the original battery.

My nephew’s partner Simon, just messaged from London that they happen to be on a street where Judi Dench is doing film of some sort.

Olympics, spose.

Troublesome enough in real life land. If crystal is.

Am sort of just recovering from the sheer experience of bidding on EBay.

I have waited 21 days for a pair of Waterford Crystal Millenium flutes. In huge apprehension and finally delight and huge tears.

I won them, for the merest amount. The seller must be a novice.

None of that is the point.

The same flutes were a present to me on my birthday. From a dear friend. Some three years ago.

I had only used them once, placed them then on my lovely old dresser, before Doug picked them up, along with my Kosta Boda and shattered them on the tiled floor.

I reiterate.

How happy I am to be here.

Don’t panic people, let’s see if it is an outlier.

It’s the government’s job to put out its message

Ho ho, that’s real easy to say from the perspective of a “party” that’s got media outlets in every capital city (and most of the regions) putting ITS message out. Bushfire Bill reported that NBNCo bought ads on a “talkback” station in Sydney, specifying live reads by the jock. The jock mocked and did the reads so disrespectfully that NBNCo were forced to pull the ads. As Bill said, you can’t even PAY these shills to put a different message out for thirty lousy seconds.

Thank God I’ve ended my Age subscription. I don’t have to read about this Neilsen shit anymore. or Grattan or Carney, or any of it.

Just wait until the malign influence of major shareholder, Rinehart, becomes more overt at that once-august publication. And if you think that’s bad, the resources billionaires are likely planning an Australian version of Fox News – just in case the current imbalance is not conducive enough to a one-party media (and, they must be hoping, eventual one-party state).

I expect that you will never understand it.......

The only thing I’ll never understand is patronising defeatist pissants like you.

And I’m SL not RW you Galactic idiot.

If you’re going to have a go, at least get your facts (and factions) right.

I expect that you will never understand it. That is the problem. You and your mates who kicked Kevvie just do not get it. You want everyone in the Labor movement to be in your own image (which based on this blog) is a RW bovver boy. Problem is that they are not and your Machiavellian tricks have turned the voters right off

Anytime you want to show me where I’ve kicked Kevin be my guest. I’m not in the Labor movement and never have been. Unlike like you I’m no factional hack.
