We’re doomed.

First reports are the 6 day visit by Albanese to China has been very successful, both from an economic and a diplomatic point of view. The Old Fart brigade must truly be perturbed that the Australian PM has been able to pull off such a coup. Those banging on about Albo not as yet having a meeting with the pervert in the White House should take note of how international relations are properly conducted.

Let's see !

Indy,

"THERE IS NONE SO BLIND AS HE WHO WILL NOT SEE."

The proverb means people like YOU who refuse to accept or acknowledge the truth are the most difficult to convince or enlighten, even when presented with clear evidence. It highlights the power of willful ignorance and the difficulty of changing someone's mind when they are determined not to see.

Always presenting a negative outlook on everything. WHY?

We don't have much in the way of innovation in Australia. We follow the woke of the US and the UK. What's the betting that 16 year old children will be voting at the next election to ensure that Australia remains the ultra-Socialist mess that it has become?

The Left demands that we all ‘follow the science’; but they don’t follow the science of the human brain not fully maturing until the age of 25. Twenty five should be the voting age: not 16, not 18, not 21 - but 25.

Starmer in Britain thinks 16 year old kids should have a say in how ‘their money is spent’. What money does a 16 year old have!

Already the Greens are pawing the ground and whinnying about Australian children voting. Given their poor performance at the recent election, they would be; they are the party of the immature and silly in this country. Even One Nation pipped them, and a current poll shows the Greens 6% behind One Nation. Labor needs new idiots to replace the Greens.

Labor, having removed children from their mothers to be brain-washed in child care centres, should have no trouble exploiting older children; and they can force them to vote here, unlike the UK.

Drafting children to vote is not extending democracy, it is ensuring endless Communist-style government in Australia. And, with the push by the evil Left to ban kids under 16 from social media, the kids will be even more ignorant than their parents, and more easily fooled into voting for Socialism. Our Dear Leader has demonstrated over the past six days where his interests lay.

Albanese's attitude to Communist China and the leader of world democracy, America, has been “described as “anaemic neutrality”. Left of neutral I would have thought. He “risks appeasing Beijing while undermining Australia’s alliance with the United States”. At best, he is not interested in foreign threats or Australia's defence. His brain is certainly in ‘neutral’.

"human brain not fully maturing until the age of 25"

For Old Farts their brain like a ripe orange hangs on the tree, and hangs on the tree. Eventually after all that hanging the bloody thing falls, dropping to the ground, then it rots to a pile of crap. The brain of many an Old Fart is like the orange, or should I say a pea, relative size. When they were 25 the brain the size of a pea, by the time they reach 80, it has well and truly fallen out of their head, and rots to a little biddy pile of crap.

No citizen should be allowed to vote & work in the Public Service until they have served 12 months National Service.
Non-citizens should not be allowed to vote full stop !
As the Demographic changes & inferior mentality becomes more prevalent due to indoctrination old ways need to be re-thought also.
Empathy has now reached dangerously low levels as has respect & responsibility & this is now becoming a tinder-dry powder box in anything society.
All that's needed for the situation to ignite is one more Labor Government.

The hypocrite speaks; "No citizen should be allowed to vote & work in the Public Service until they have served 12 months National Service."

Freely admits as a blow in ashamed of his heritage he became an Australian citizen, to get even more lurks and perks, when given the opportunity to enlist for national service, up to the age of 35, he didn't do any such thing. But now he's about 80, and living off the public purse he's all for young people being drafted into some half baked idea of a national service to protect his arse.

Rubbish; Non-citizens should not be allowed to vote full stop ! They can't, but maybe you did.

Paul1405,
Had I been told that there were more than one like you in this Nation I'd have changed my mind !
Have you ever pulled your weight for this Nation ? I don't get the feeling you would ! You simply don't sound like someone with the mentality required !
What's your greatest achievement, handing how to vote Labor pamphlets ?
