Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
Good judges rate the 1985 Hagler v Hearns bout as the second greatest fight in boxing history, behind only the almost supernatural Ali v Frazier III, the Thrilla in Manila, and I agree with them. These two amazing middleweight’s went at each other toe to toe from moment that the bell rang, dazzling us with […]
One of the striking features of the new POC tax regime about to be introduced by the Queensland Government is that the 20% tax will be applied to winnings from bonus bets. A bonus bet has no real monetary value. It is a notional gift given to punters by a bookmaker as a reward for […]
If the Albo in this picture published in The Australian this morning isn’t your type of real true blue PM, then I strongly suggest that you are living in the wrong country. Bleary eyed like he’s hungover, pillow hair everywhere, ugg boots, baggy PJ pants and and an old Newtown bluebags jersey. I bet he […]
Have you ever seen an election like this one? No-one has any policies. The country doesn’t really have any big bang, headline problems. Interest rates remain at SFA, despite COVID-19. We have the lowest unemployment rates in living memory. Our minimum wages are the highest in the world, and we have super, annual leave and […]
Yesterday The Australian published a commentary piece written by a woman named Dr Muriel Newman. You can read it here. https://www.theaustralian.com.au/commentary/this-is-what-makes-the-ardern-government-so-dangerous/news-story/602acabba81dbfaba1adb83192123bd7 In the article, Newman inferred and all but stated that NZ Prime Minister Jacinda Arden was Josef Stalin, and her government were leaders of a repressive, totalitarian regime that ‘destroyed’ lives of unvaccinated people. […]
I saw this on Twitter today, and my immediate reaction was not to believe it. It has to be a hoax I thought, a photo-shopped piece of anti-Green propaganda. Surely no semi-mainstream party would be so ridiculous that one of their policies would be shut down all forms of racing. That’s just insane. I forgot […]
Bob Katter, made headlines in 1989 for famously promising to “walk to Bourke backwards if the poof population of North Queensland is any more than 0.001 per cent”. His half-brother, Carl, later came out as gay, but it didn’t make Bob anymore interested in marriage equality or human rights. The Mad Hatter had more important […]
Australia needs good government now more than ever. A country and a people as extraordinary as ours deserve a government to match. A government of competence and integrity. A government that doesn’t get out of the way but helps to create the way. A real government is the steering wheel of a nation, not just […]
Albanese Candy, manufacturers of the world’s best gummy bears. Fair dinkum. Google them. Well with five weeks to go until E-day it’s far too early to call the win yet, or to go the early crow, but if you took our tip before Xmas and mortgaged the house to load up on Scomo you’d be […]
Anthony Albanese – Albo – is the most popular bloke in the Labor Party. Everyone who carries a red card loves him, although few ever thought he’d ever be the $1.62 favourite in a two-horse race for PM. That’s just crazy that price. Albo is the lay of the century. Australians like leaders who know […]
