Don`t forget the most important problem, that of our sustainable population growth.
Ignore that and all other problems remain unsolved.

Population ? The supply of labour for the car, electronics and pharmaceutical industries? Sheep shearers and cane-cutters? Sandstone masons for government works in Parramatta?

Hear, hear, and well said Everald.
Rhrosty.

Oh dear what a bubble Everald lives in. He wants the definition of marriage perverted, believes man can control the climate and bangs on about a republic. He must be looking for a job with the abc. No mention of islamist terrorism. Just shows you wisdom does not come with age. Oh that's right the terrorism is stopped because the language is softened. No wonder Everald has swallowed the gw hoax.

Btw why wasn,t the referendum on gay marriage in Slovenia reported on by the ABC?

Runner you say a referendum on gay marriage in Slovenia? Really? Never saw that on the ABC. Obviously it was a landslide in favour, how could it be anything but?
I am personally looking forward to our plebiscite, referendum whatever?
I have so many questions but precious few answers.

Runner, you had better go back and re-read the article.

"Terrorism and the Islamic State bear heavily upon our view of the future,"

You also need to rinse your brain out about global warming too, but I will leave that discussion for another day.

Have a Happy Christmas.
