I’m a little miffed that it takes banks six eels to pass on a cut, and one to pass on a rise.
But eh.
I’m way more miffed that none of this makes any sense.
We’re giving more money to the consumers causing the problem. I mean…this isn’t kick a boomer, but that’s just a fact.
And the rate rise will do nothing to rein in the companies causing the problem.
In SEQ it’s not the ubiquitous thing it is in Victoria, to my disappointment, but you can get it. ‘Cod’ (whatever that means) seems to be more popular/common
As we prepare to welcome PM Herzog, we learn months after the fact that Anzac graves have been bulldozed in Gaza, our universities are being ‘graded’ by Segal according to how they ‘deal’ with protests on campus, and Trump’s Israel ambassador has, apropos of something or other, warned that Australia’s government has no legitimate reason not to join the Board of Peace. Additionally several Liberal mp’s invitations to the Islamic Community day have been rescinded citing Bondi speeches.
The efforts to counter anti semitism are being somewhat undermined by an uncoordinated yet expansive network of interests. Let’s hope the billions of dollars worth of RC in a few years time can take the heat out of it all.
So is anyone going to post an actual article with facts around this, because it’s only playing in Murdoch papers and their walled off Facebook pages. It’s really hard to find anyone running with it apart from that entertainment news stable. I gather they are going after Jacinta Allen. Did she authorise it or was it a judicial arrangement, or a prison arrangement? Are there any details or just screen shots and I told you so’s?
The fact that someone says “I’m going to kill blacks”, paints “kill da n-word” on walls, bashes a Sudanese refuge to death and then the crime is labelled “not racially motivated” is of significantly more concern to me.
“The bombshell development came after it was reported Corrections Victoria last month updated its policies for the placement of transgender prisoners to ‘allow them less say over where they are held in custody’.
It’s understood senior Labor figures pushed for a tougher crackdown, including a blanket ban on any male-born transgender killers or sex offenders being housed in female prisons.
Senior government sources said the blanket ban plan will be reignited amid revelations of Rintoull’s offending.
Premier Allan has previously refused to comment on the case of Harper (another trans in female prison) , better known by the court-ordered pseudonym ‘Hilary Maloney’, saying it would be ‘deeply inappropriate’ for the Premier or any minister ‘to be reaching into Corrections Victoria and directing the placement of any prisoner.’
Why does it matter if it is racially motivated or not? I assume when someone murders someone, they are motivated by something to do it. At the end of the day, someone was murdered and the murderer should be sentenced accordingly. Why they did it shouldn’t really come into it as far as I am concerned (Unless it is self defence).
