The NSW premier is worried about there being so little success in prosecuting cases of 'racism'. Perhaps that is because there just hasn't been the racism that he seems to think is occurring around him?
Hasbeen has so accurately expressed my own feelings of offence taken by me vis a vis our PM. But, it is me TAKING offence, as opposed to her giving it, I am sure that she tries very hard not to be offensive. In the same way, you have described very accurately and succinctly my own feelings towards our Sarah. (Truly, I cringe)
A most interesting and well argued group of posts gentlemen and ladies.
By the way, having revealed my feelings regarding two female polices here, I wonder if I have met the criteria for the new and improved definition of misogynist?
Cheers.
