Wankers and their shiny new toys
Unbelievable. 20 years ago it was amusing. Now it’s just pathetic. And, in the current international diplomatic climate, alarming. And I couldn’t give a shit about Indonesia, I’m talking about the increased possibility of this insane spawn of madmen coming into fruition. If a single cent of the federal treasury goes into this cockamamie stunt [...]

Greetings, non-white man! Welcome to British officialdom!
HMG have dreamed up another gravity-defying solution to the problem of immigrants to Britain not being assimilated into the native populace: A new consultation document suggests that would-be Britons would take a new pledge of loyalty to the UK and observe the national anthem.

Yeah, fuck this “Brights” shit
There’s something so disappointingly repugnant about representatives of a minority unanimously agreeing to stoop to the lowest common denominator by caving into the intellectual bankruptcy of our times and adopting a self-styled “politically-correct” nomenclature.

It’s getting close now
In 48 hours the election will be all over. Oh god, Howard’s gunna win, I just know it. I can’t stand it. He needs to go. He doesn’t deserve it. He’s a liar. He’s a fear-mongerer. He doesn’t care. It’s all about the history books. People are too fucking dumb to see through his bullshit. [...]

Not only flags flying in a lot of hot wind
by Alan Ramsey It has been a wonderful week for the absurd. The compulsory school flagpoles were bad enough. Yet nothing quite matched the pomposity or ridiculousness of Brendan Nelson (Federal Education Minister), the Sydney Liberal infamous for abandoning his earring to become a Howard minister, when he stood beside his patron and Prime Minister [...]
