‘Robodebt’ Class Action Lawsuit could bring down the Coalition Government!

I haven’t been able to find the quote, but I heard the lawyer saying that the debts are being told to prove their income from over a decade ago with data their own website advised people they need only keep for 6 months.

Mind you, the libs wrote the laws, so…………… illegality doesn’t mean shit these days

Of course! Why would a conviction for being a harassing, sexist arsehole bother this prick?

Because the one he “harassed” didn’t want him charged perhaps?

#justsaying 😉

Has that ever happened before?

What, a domestic dispute? You’ve never had one?

Do you know any of the context of the dispute, or just the narrow leaked extracts?

Do you recall a guy called Peter Slipper?

#auspol never changes. Thugs wear blue ties, and racists stick together

Domestic violence can involve more than just physical abuse

No shit sherlock

So can arguments you fuckwit ( 😉 )

Also on the link…

-name calling
-yelling, insulting or swearing at them (also known as verbal abuse).

But that’s fine, you can continue to make excuses for this proven thug, woman abuser, criminal and misogynist

The type of abuse used by Setka isn’t typical of any domestic disagreement I’ve ever seen or experienced.

If I heard any neighbours using that type of language, I’d call the police. It is just as abusive when it it by text.

But you’re welcome to continue to defend the proven criminal domestic abuser.

You’re equating that kind of thing with Setka’s proven criminal domestic abuser?

Bizarre.

I’ve never heard of the wife of a criminal domestic abuser being reluctant to press charges against their abuser.

That must be the first time that’s ever happened.

Yeah. It’s also really unusual for a woman not to want to press charges against their abusive husband. That’s me we happened before and it never has anything to do with control and bullying.

This case is absolutely unique and Setka is a fine and non abusive family man. And admission of guilt is no proof of guilt. Particularly in domestic violence.

No one was complaining that criticising Sam Dastayri was anti Iranian. So why is this case anti Chinese?

“Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has apologised after a photo emerged of him wearing brownface during a school event in 2001.
“I shouldn’t have done it. I should have known better, but I didn’t,” he told reporters on a plane today.

“This is just getting excruciating”

The Defence should be entitled to know the nature of the psychological conditions that the alleged victim was treated for especially if it included delusional thoughts

“This is just getting excruciating”

FYI, as excruciating as it is to explain this slowly to defenders of convicted pedophiles

The Victim is not “alleged” He is a proven victim, that a major broadsheet toilet paper is casting assertions on on the national stage

“He is a proven victim”

Not at the time they were denied access

A fair trial means that anything relevant has to be considered.

That applies to everyone, even Pell. Or does he warrant a different set of rules?

The Kids WOKE up

I had a look at the gathering in Byron Bay. I think attendance of school children there was compulsory.

…and is there a child, if given the option of classroom or hanging around a protest on a Friday afternoon wouldn’t choose the protest?

The near miss china syndrome is only one of `some` in yankeeland, along with a couple in canadia. The fukashima was take-out by tsunami, Not earthquake, which is caused by continental plates shattering and grinding under extreme pressure. No coastline is immune from a tsunami blubbers. You are quite daft if you think `anything` in clowntown could provide the leadership, strength or oversight needed to run nukies properly, Look at wireCo and roboDebt. There is no `profit` from dead irradiated consumers, and wiping out `surrounding` investments like pyrpat and fukishima.

France has the world’s second-largest fleet of nuclear reactors

Not only is our medical reactor making nooze this goodnewsweek, so is the japs fukishima nukie, and FIVE of Le-Fr0gs nukies. Here`s a taste.

Wonderful. After destroying our car industry the ALP/Greens want to destroy our biggest export – coal

No. Like all lefties you mislead and deceive people. In 2006 we made 25% of cars. By 2013 that had crashed to only 10%. When Ford announced they were leaving when Gillard was PM the industry was dead. Industry died because people stopped buying aussie made cars. Blame the consumer for not buying locally made cars and the manufacturers for making cars nobody wanted to buy. and perhaps the govt for giving them money with no strings attached

BTW subsidies are still available And now Labor wants to destroy our coal industry

This is hilarious………..

From the Australian today…………….

The British Labour Party will go into the next general election with a firm plan – derided by critics as “an act of national self-harm’’ – to abolish all private schools and redistribute their properties and investments.

Labour’s dramatic education policy, agreed at its annual conference this morning, would see private schools integrated into the state sector if it won the election.

The education plan is just the latest in a raft of far-left Labour policies under leader Jeremy Corbyn and shadow chancellor John McDonnell, who want to nationalise key government services such as transport and housing.

While a general election has not yet been called, the ongoing Brexit uncertainty and parliamentary upheaval has increased the chances of one being held soon.

Labour members voted that if they were in government, all British private schools would have all public subsidies and tax privileges, including business rate exemptions and charitable status withdrawn. The education policy approved by the conference also says “endowments, investments and properties held by private schools to be redistributed democratically and fairly across the country’s educational institutions’’.

This is great news for Boris. Bring on the election

Hopefully Tanya will insist on something similar and consign the ALP to the dustbin of hisory

all British private schools would have all public subsidies and tax privileges, including business rate exemptions and charitable status withdrawn.

GOOD

Public money shouldn’t be spent in private gratification, until there is enough spare public money to do so.

Which really should go against these ‘small government’ types.

on performing arts centres etc in EVERY private school around.

They were

A), working within the environment they found themselves in
B) Distributing funds it evenly across all students (unlike now)
C) Was a Stimulus, not an education expense (although, it continues to add benefit to education, which aint a bad stimulus 😉

Yeah!! Lots of funding for private schools is fine, as long as the ALP does it!

got?

get 😉

Speaking of little kids, this is hilarious

I’d be embarrassed if I linked to crap like that.

As embarrassed as the (former) workers at Holden?

Finally! Trump’s well deserved impeachment has started. He’s a f***wit.

As for Greta Thunberg, she seems to be an articulate, unqualified young person. There’s actually no shortage of them. I think I heard about a dozen of them in Byron Bay say the same thing last week.

“How dare you – you have stolen my dreams and my childhood’ …”

Hilarious….!

The last time I took advice from a 16 year old I found out it was shit advice.

I was 16.

BTW David Attenborough was taken apart on Sky After Dark (Boo !) last night as he has been previously.

I expect the Australian to take him apart in the next few days. It can take them a while to do it because they actually go and research the FACTS.

“……….is repeating what the qualified people are saying?”

Oh you mean the 97% of scientists ?

Pity she didn’t mention this “qualified people”………………..

“This is probably the most difficult task we have ever given ourselves, which is to intentionally transform the economic development model, for the first time in human history”,
“This is the first time in the history of mankind that we are setting ourselves the task of intentionally, within a defined period of time to change the economic development model that has been reigning for at least 150 years, since the industrial revolution. That will not happen overnight and it will not happen at a single conference on climate change, be it COP 15, 21, 40 – you choose the number. It just does not occur like that. It is a process, because of the depth of the transformation.”

-Christina Figueres Executive Secretary of the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change

“Not me. My wife likes a drink!”

Of course she does.

“You need to be reminded ………….. again …………… of the scientific consensus?”

“scientific consensus” without which the taxpayer funds would immediately stop

“The recognition of sexual and reproductive rights in interventions on climate change is crucial to stop the perpetuation of existing gender norms and gender-based violence, among other things. The current brief seeks to elucidate the nuances of the interlinkages between climate change and sexual and reproductive rights through preliminary evidence available, as well as further advocacy on inclusion of sexual and reproductive rights in the development agenda.”

He’s lucky, Morrison now has a place in history

Scott Morrison is increasingly seen as running a “denialist government” that is not serious about finding a global climate solution and uses “greenwash” to meet its emissions commitments, analysts and former diplomats say.

I thought I’d heard her speech before……….

Peter 3:10 – But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.

I think your liver complains too much. If you worry about ailments, you’d have to do all sorts of unpleasant things, like stop drinking.

But at least 500 scientists agreeing is better than the 97%

Scientists???

Of the 400 signatories, only a handful have a background in climate science, with the majority being writers, engineers and geologists with no direct expertise in the field.

I thought her speech was hilarious. The sight of a 16 year old castigating the meek snowflakes in the UN Assembly was side splitting stuff

Take the advice of a 16 year old at your own risk

Although, I do take the advice of the scientific community, not a small collection of paid for scientists and their rag tag bunch of crazies pretending to be scientists

Terrestrial and Wetland Ecosystems

Risks of local species losses and, consequently, risks of extinction are much less in a 1.5°C versus a 2°C warmer world (high confidence). The number of species projected to lose over half of their climatically determined geographic range at 2°C global warming (18% of insects, 16% of plants, 8% of vertebrates) is projected to be reduced to 6% of insects, 8% of plants and 4% of vertebrates at 1.5°C warming (medium confidence). Risks associated with other biodiversity-related factors, such as forest fires, extreme weather events, and the spread of invasive species, pests and diseases, would also be lower at 1.5°C than at 2°C of warming (high confidence), supporting a greater persistence of ecosystem services.

Perhaps we should attribute the CO2 to the nations that buy the emission causing products that are manufactured in China, South Korea India et al. After all they create the Demand resulting in the emissions.

I agree ! The media has overstepped the mark on numerous occasions recently. And here the courts have awarded substantial damages against them. Good.

There’s too much sensationalism and insufficient factual reporting.

I think the ABC and Fairfax supported an appeal against the damages awarded to Rebel Wilson (or was it Geoffrey Rush?)

They’ve all lost the plot.

So do you think the local representative of the queen should dismiss the government?

And who said I prefer doing nothing? I previously thought the US system was sound but I’m not so sure now. I’d be quite happy for the parliament to approve the head of state.

Very little change required.

trumps solution

(I’m entirely happy to provide you with the details.

Would that happyness be in the form of:

a) an appropriately-overlooked Green Paper;

b) a mysteriously-abandoned/(p)retired White Paper;

c) a super-subtly stovepiped ‘review’ by a hand-picked panel of (in)vested) (h)experts with a priori ‘good ideas’/conflict(s) of (dis)interest(s);

d) an heavily-resisted Royal Commission into the manifest(ed) (mal)function(s) of the ‘(in)Human(e) Services’ artifice;

e) a(n) (self-)indulgent non-binding plebiscite on a legislative matter;

f) a long-overdue referendum on a constitutional matter, for which a recognisable draft question is yet to be published, despite nearly a decade of promises to produce one, and despite a rough-draft question originally having been produced, subject to perfectly-(un)natural concerns(-trolling, about tent-ative embassies and/or third-chambers), but a finalised question most-assuredly will emerge in good time for achieving (bi)partisan support, for being lent hefty political-capital momentum, and for co-incidental (cross-)mark(et)ing of a related successful-referendum’s quinquagenary; or

g) something else?)

yomm lies and refuses to answer questions

It’s the Truth

yomms song 😉

Why do you think the government should be dismissed?

What part of “hypothetical” are you struggling with yomm?

…just highly unethical/ immoral)?

That sounds pretty routine for a political party, and it was exactly the argument used to support the dismissal of the Whitlam Government.

So I don’t support the dismissal of a government by the governor general.

If a government maintains the confidence of the HoR, and has not been found to have acted illegality, it can face the consequences of its behaviour at the next election.

It’s the law

You’re the one seeking the dismissal of the government. It’s a law that isn’t required to be used.

But what exactly is your rationale for seeking the dismissal of the government by the local unelected representative of an unelected, extremely privileged monarchy?

Lol. What’s your rationale for not answering mine?

Link?

I think Tom R and TB want the Queen’s representative to be able to dismiss the government without any illegality,

Again, you’re just making shit up yomm.

We are just saying, this is the current way things work. You seem unable to grasp that concept.

I refuse to answer what?

I’ve already answered that or do you lack comprehension?

I said –
So I don’t support the dismissal of a government by the governor general.

If a government maintains the confidence of the HoR, and has not been found to have acted illegality, it can face the consequences of its behaviour at the next election.

thete are established precedents for formation of a new government or an election.

The arsehole

I certainly won’t be missing Jon Faine. He is an opinioniated loudmouth that doesn’t belong on a publicly funded radio station.

Rafael Epstein (on the other hand) is balanced and well informed. He probes but doesn’t talk over people. The ABC should have more like him.

I don’t think Virginia Tripoli can match Faine for self importance, arrogance and talking over guests.

She doesn’t even seem to be particularly obnoxious. I can’t see her lasting at our ABC

Retirement means having the time to listen to people like Faine wasting my taxes

Of course, you have a better explanation why a woman married to a racist, who is best mates with QAnon, would be “accidentally” making these signs with that particular person.

As for the 👌 sign, surely you can’t be serious.

You did note your sign is facing the wrong way, and is upside down.

Going on some posters here, it’s difficult to disagree

About 35 cyclists took off from Carlton Gardens about 7.30am and blocked intersections on Hoddle Street, in Collingwood.
