And people say that Twitter is just an “echo chamber”

March 26, 2019

Here’s a chap who was suggesting that George Pell was about to expose financial corruption at the the Catholic Church and so the criminal charges were a “set up” and “payback” by the Church hierarchy…

    Senior One Nation figures James Ashby and Steve Dickson had been “on the sauce” drinking scotch for “three or four hours” when discussing seeking a $20m donation from the National Rifle Association.

    I’m so relieved … I thought they serious for a minute … lalalalalalalalala …

    https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2019/mar/26/one-nations-james-ashby-says-he-was-on-the-sauce-when-seeking-20m-from-nra

    I just read the story … it is hilarious …

    Quotes …

    Dickson said the party’s leader, Pauline Hanson, was “quite ill” and unable to appear publicly.

    “This … may be the last thing I ever say in politics, I don’t know yet. I don’t know if I want to keep doing this because I couldn’t believe that a person like me could be sucked in to the extent that I’ve been sucked in,” Dickson said.

    “This is the stuff you see in James Bond magazines. I would never expect you would see this for real in the real world.”

    “We didn’t get any money from any US lobby groups at all, not a cent,” Dickson said.

    Ashby called for al-Jazeera to release the full and unedited recordings of their conversations, and said One Nation would alter Australia’s gun laws.

    When challenged by an ABC reporter about the contradiction between his comments about wanting to maintain the status quo, and recorded comments that appear to support a watering down of Australian gun laws, Ashby snapped back.

    “You’re best buddies with al-Jazeera, ABC, why not get the full statement out on the record so people can make an informed decision. You are not putting forward the facts. Put forward the full facts. That’s what’s been required. You are a very rude man who won’t listen to the facts.”

    “quite ill” … I’ll bet she is … LOL!

    “may be the last thing I ever say in politics” … I do hope so! LOL!

    James Bond magazines?????? Mmmmm

    “We didn’t get any money” … “we didn’t get any money when we tried to rob the service station – so we are innocent!” LOL!

    Best buddies wit Al-jazeera … Ashby really should be behind bars … what astounds me is that these pricks get away with it … and dumbfucks vote for ’em!

    I’m not sure if they are crazy or having a lend.

    Although, the stalker is obviously crazy 😉

    As for wunnation, pretty sure this will actually gain them votes.

    love the way it appears that they were silent until they got the orders from the nra on how to handle the exposure. Typical nra, blame those who caught them.

    You wouldn’t be able to get away with that sort of shit in a novel, but this is #auspol

    It seems to me the echo chambers of legacy outlets are the first to bleat, and loudest to bleat about reddit, facebook, twitter etc as echo chambers at a level that lacks their own total self awareness. Give me fcuking break.

    AJ v pauline, l tend to agree with peter greste on aj`s ethics organizing the meeting/s. Particularly as team pauline is so minor. lt would have had more substance had their three year effort caught out the teabumpkins, hard right teabags or team dishwater. This really just proves the legacy outlets do things that help the duopoly.

    $357,000,000 seems like great value for advertising whatever it is they do!

    We just had a State election in NSW. Unemployment is at 3.9%, the lowest in the States history, the budget is in surplus, the State is debt free and the NSW economy is booming. There are cranes everywhere and stuff is being built. And the previous Labor govt was one of the most corrupt in NSW history

    But the Coalition only just won the election. It was a close result. Labor obviously has the hearts of the Australian people no matter how dishonest and useless

    Just demonstrates:

    1. The ignorance of the Federal Liberal/National politicians
    2. The hypocrisy of the Federal Liberal/National politicians
    3. The lack of understanding of the Australian “peasants” by Federal Liberal/National politicians or those they believe are peasants (some of us are actually educated)
    4. The total ignorance of how Australian society actually works
    5. The lousy management of what still IS one of the richest economies in the world

    Seems like more fracturing of voters to me and `listing` at the interwebs won`t change that. Maybe frontyard signage will save the day. Looks like the teabags won`t be getting the hammering they deserve in jonestown to me, team dishwater will probably save their bacon, mostly. That AJ hit on team pauline will probably harden and boost their voter base. On the upside, australia is the global champions of pissing away national wealth and opportunity.

    A comedian with no political experience has won the most votes in the first round of Ukraine`s presidential elections, early results indicate. With half the ballots counted, Volodymyr Zelenskiy ; who plays the president on TV ; got about 30%, with current leader Petro Poroshenko on 16%.

    The two ; who have expressed largely pro-EU opinions ; are set to take part in a run-off election next month. Former prime minister Yulia Tymoshenko appears to have been eliminated. (snip!!)

    A total of 39 candidates were on the ballot paper. With none receiving more than 50%, the top two will go forward to the run-off on 21 April. The Ukrainian president has significant powers over security, defence and foreign policy, in a system described as semi-presidential.

    Time to ridicule them catholics again, Tom! Wherever they are … https://www.theguardian.com/world/2019/apr/01/harry-potter-among-books-burned-by-priests-in-poland

    Catholic priests in Poland have burned books that they say promote sorcery, including one of JK Rowling’s Harry Potter novels, in a ceremony they photographed and posted on Facebook.

Go on say something, you'll feel better...
