Detournement Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 So it looks like the Australian PM is being ousted to be replaced by an even bigger idiot. Oz always seems to get a positive press in the UK but it's up there with the USA for racist crazies. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are forcing the current right wing arsehole PM out basically because he doesn't think burning coal is the greatest thing ever.

Can anyone name two Australian authors, books, films, poets or composers respectively ?Films are easy. Muriel’s wedding, rabbit proof fence, Mad Max, Pricilla queen of the desert A.B. “Banjo” Paterson’s poetry gets me half marks on poetry Can I get a point for the choreographer Mathew Bourne? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enigma Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 Indeed, a nation of vulgar people and coarse attitudes. Can anyone name two Australian authors, books, films, poets or composers respectively ?I think Dame Edna got it right when she was asked why Australians were so successful at sport."Good food and diet; open air life; juicy steaks; sunshine — and the total absence of any kind of intellectual distraction". 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sooky Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 In what is likely to be his last day as PM, always worth remembering that this’ll be the fourth Prime Minister in a row that has been ousted by a member of their own party. Not one has lasted a full three year term. And we think our political system is fucked. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sooky Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 From the little I know of Australian politics, Scott Morrison, more of a moderate, defeats Peter Dutton, who is on the right of the party, in a coup against Turnbull that was led by the Dutton and the right. So that seems a little awkward. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He voted against marriage equality, ran the refugee concentration camps on Manus and Nauru, thinks the future of energy is coal and is some kind of evangelical christian. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
