Just watched 10 minutes of the ABC News; It's all lies.

Re the Trump thing
No-one brings up his now deleted tweets where he said he didn't want any violence or the newly released Twitter files where Democrats ordered Twitter executives to remove / suppress stories harmful to their campaign.

Experts investigating rare side effects of vaccine
The ABC presenter ask about side effects of Covid Vaccine - long Covid
- and the person interviewed Prof. Katherine MacKenzie says
"Oh I'm not worried about that..."
Then its all the standard crap about helping 20 million people blah-blah-blah
- Move on nothing to see here -

Then you have Albo saying he'll work with Nationals leader now that they've stated they won't support The Voice.
How about you support the Australian people by telling them what it IN THE LEGISLATION that you actually want them to vote for?
- Still ain't seen any fine print.

Meanwhile.. this would be fun - Trumps revenge...
Rep. Jamie Raskin said a GOP majority could install Trump as speaker of the House.

Might as well just sit back with my box of Cadbury favorites and watch the whole world go to hell in a bloody handbasket.

It's Christmas Eve - and a good time to reflect on
the year that's coming to an end. I wrote in my
discussion - "'tis the season," what a tumultuous
year it's been. What with the pandemic, the Queen's
Jubilee, and then her passing, King Charles III,
our federal and state elections, the war in Ukraine,
and the list goes on.

But hey, we survived.

Despite all our problems, we should count our blessings.
I've received cards from family and friends overseas
who are excited about the wintry weather there and
all the old Festive traditions.
It's hard to get excited about snow, reindeers, and
the old traditions, when you're celebrating Christmas
in the Southern Hemisphere trying to enjoy long hot
days by the beach or at home feasting on seafood,
pavlovas, and summer fruit. Spending time (if we're
lucky) with family and friends, and spoiling the grandkids.

So while some of us may be hurtling towards incontinence
and immobility - lets count our blessings and wish each
other a Merry Festive Season and a Joyful, Healthy, and Safe
New Year!

And as I tuck into my Christmas Lunch on Christmas Day
I shall raise a glass (or two) to all of you.

I wish you joy all through the holidays
I wish you good luck and success that forever stays
I wish you the love of family and friends
And finally I wish you happy, healthy days that never end!

Be kind to each other!

I see that the ABC was censured for lying in its show on Fox News.

So I guess Foxy can't use them as a reference.

shadowminister,

The Four Corners Fox News
documentary was found not to have violated
impartiality standards. Perhaps it would help
if you were to read from some other sources apart
from the Murdoch Press.

Dear Paul,

Before I go here's a link that may be of interest:

Take care.

Thanks Foxy,

I would say the critique by Hume and Loughnane was fairly succinct when it came to the abject failure of the Liberal Party at the last election.
One of the most important factors for a political party seeking government, is the perception by voters, of their trust they put in the party leader, and to a lesser degree his team of followers. Women didn't trust Morrison, young aspirational voters didn't trust Morrison, there's 80% of voters, your potential voter base put at risk. As for the Liberal team its value as a support group was zero. Policy was non existent, so they had noting to sell. Dutton is in the same position, not to be trusted by voters.

My good friend in Sydney, Taiwanese Australian aged in her 30's, conservative, anti communist, but has fears for her family back home. Although she sees the CCP as a threat to Taiwan, she also doesn't trust America to help her country, and therefore her family. Lib thinks the people of Taiwan are going to be treated like the people of Ukraine, not considered when it comes to the politics. Because of the
rhetoric from the Liberals pushing war, she normally votes Liberal, but this time she voted Labor.

p/s One thing my friend believes is the people on the mainland don't see Taiwanese as an enemy but as family, and they are opposed to their government using force against their family.

Foxy, Merry Xmas to You and All.
