Paul 1405 is the only poster here who openly admits that he is a member of the Grubby Greens, and he seems to be quite proud of it, saying a few posts back that “ …. Labor needs the Greens far more than the Greens need Labor.”

Well, it's true that our worst government ever wouldn't exist without the Greens but Albanese might have to take heed of Dutton’s suggestion to drop them if he wants to keep his job. Back-benchers and other Labor politicians are not as thrilled with the Greens as he is. ‘Scum’ is a description uttered privately - and publicly by one retired ex-Minister still loyal to Labor.

I've have a feeling that the appalling leadership and disgusting attitude on Israel and just about everything else might be about to bite them on the bum: starting with this article this afternoon:

(The Greens) are, “A successful political machine with a bottom-drawer agenda and a dark past most Australians would find alarming” …. with radical policies for every part of government aimed at undermining Australia’s freedom, security and prosperity”.

The Greens “ want to pull down our borders, defund our defence forces, increase taxes on working Australians, and side with terrorists like Hamas.”

The Greens have Albanese by the short and curlies; far from helping him, they look like dragging him down.

ttbn,

You fail to attribute your quote to a named source, so given your propensity to push the extremist far right agenda of the One Nation party, did it come from that quarter or something similar. Anyone can claim something without authentication like; "One Nation has an agenda to establish concentration camps for the re-education of political prisoners" end of quote.

Paul

No. I haven't attributed it to anyone. It's something that I agree with. That’s all. It supports my opinion of the Greens, and revealing the source would not help you or have any effect on you.

One thing though: it doesn't involve Pauline Hanson. You are more interested in her than I am. I don't like any politicians, and I get my information from writers and commentators who know what they are talking about - unlike the average dumbcluck, self-serving Australian politician.

ttbn,

You often advocate on this form for a vote for Hanson's One Nation party, it tops your list of alternatives to the big two. If its something you agree with then the quotation marks are not required. Aside from that at least you don't hide your political leanings, declaring yourself a "conservative" as you do.

Tip from Yahoo Finance this morning - if you are trying to save money, pay in cash.

“The cashless effect is the phenomenon of spending more money but also buying more products when paying by cashless methods - whatever they are, it could be credit cards or BNPL schemes - in comparison to cash”.

ttbn, actually there is another threat to cash.
Armorguard is in financial trouble because not enough money needs to
be moved around.
If they go broke the banks may not have cash anyway !
