After all, he said, being bored is better than being dead. Well, thought I, this chap has some information that I don’t have. This warrants some research. Of course, weren’t no use in questioning the fella further … I mean, who can truly read the wisdom in a set of raised eyes? Perhaps its the wave of the hand? He was very sure of himself. He repeated it twice, and both times to a different question. Is this electioneering on…
“But he who looks to the perfect law – the law of liberty – and perseveres, not just hearers who forget, but doers who act, shall be blessed in their doing” – (James 1:23,25) Well, they finally got it right. This election is about the future. Do we have one or not. The NeoLiberal Kings version – myopic, self centred and short. A future for him and his kids he says, a future of smog and smug and tailings, a…
I suppose that by now you’d have to think he believes the rubbish he spews forth. Its that old British Empire mentality that if you shout louder at the idiots .. then they will understand what it is you are lying to them about. My grandfather had it, if you were black, brown or yellow you just had to be shouted at, louder. The real problem with this King, is with his god. Everything the King says about his god…
“G’day .. thats King speak,” he says. “Looks like you’re a long way from home, you lost?”. No, no says I but I’d also rather not be found. What’s with the Green Shirts and the leaflets? Selling God? “Ha Ha”, he says, “God is all around”. “Where you from?”, he says again, more in a way of intimidation than as a friendly greeting. Its obvious, even to these young country boys & girls, that I’m not from about here. I…
You know, if our economy depends on coal mining .. and we are told it does, if our future depends on cotton farming, as example, I know it sounds like I’m pickin’ on cotton but I’m not, if our economy depends on sucking water out of our only major river system to grow crops not suited to our land and that no one needs – yes, no one needs – at our shared environments expense. (I’m sure there is enough…
I suppose you can’t really blame Billy Boy for not wanting to coalesce with the City Greens*, apart from the fact that if our election was held on strictly democratic lines i.e. no vote trading, his Party would always have the numbers, coalitions with untrustworthy political friends always seem to degenerate into governments of untrustworthy self-interested representatives; into a clash of lies and one upmanship .. or woman-ship, as the case may be. We only have to look at the…
To the Prospective Representative of the People of Australia who reside in the Federal Electorate of ……………………………… for the House of Representatives of the Parliament of the Commonwealth of Australia, for the election of ………. 2019. We, the people of the above electorate, would wish to have an assurance that our Elected Democratic Representative will abide by the following Basic Principles of Accountability and Transparency – The Fitzgerald Principles To act honourably and fairly and solely in the public interest….
The Kings been praying for us again – lord I do wish he wouldn’t do that, its disgracefully demeaning. This is where the King’s got this all wrong, he believes in Hell. Hell on earth .. which is where its always been. Fascists need Hell, don’t matter that the Pope prayed it out of existence, the neoLibNats prey it right back in for our benefit. Both heaven and hell are earth bound concepts. “I believe in a fair go for…
There are some interesting concepts of democracy being advocated by Australian youth at the moment. These concepts, advocated by youth who say that they don’t believe in Democracy .. are mightily democratic! Did somebody turn the lights off in the classroom since I left? Of course I’m back in the back blocks with only Suicide Radio for information, that and old blokes who, as they say ‘couldnt give a shit what happens to the country anymore’. Such is life. Last…
Well, Billy Boys railing on about the Kings contempt for Democracy .. and so should he. Lets face it, its not exactly a surprise. The King and his Cretins don’t believe in democracy. The ‘party’, the boys group they belong to, doesn’t believe in democracy nor anything like transparent process. So now our noble King believes he can draw out the inevitable. I’m not one by the way who believes in the King’s usurped divine rights .. shock and horror….
