Real Life or Twitter, a Grub is a Grub

Everybody loves to bash Social Media, particularly Twitter, everyone from media talking heads, politicians & sportsmen to B Grade celebrities have had their say in print media & television decrying the nastiness that abounds on Twitter. I call Bullshit on that!

Clive Palmer media hysteria is an insult to voters in Fairfax

I am getting really fed up with reading all the ridiculous hyperbole in regard to Clive Palmer , finally, being named as MP for Fairfax. This is my backyard and I have had enough. I am not personally a fan of Clive’s, I think he is a cunning bugger & I have no idea what his ‘real’ end game is, [...]

#FFSF Warren Mundine's racist tweet is beyond the pale

I will start with a statement: “I despise racism, homophobia, religious intolerance, sexism, you name it... I honestly fail to comprehend how human beings cannot be respectful of each other FULL STOP.” I do understand that there are many reasons why people will be bigots or racists and you can’t [...]

When did we become complacent and take our eye off the ball?

What saddens me more is that there is very little outrage about this situation? Within 24 hours we had vague comments by the likes of David Speers on Sky which normally started with “The ALP have criticised...” Or a lot of apologist pieces by people more fascinated with the game of politics itself [...]

Where are the 'Women of Merit'?

The whole of Ms Gillard’s period of Prime Ministership after her now world famous Misogyny Speech we have been told that Mr Abbott does not have a “Woman Problem”. No, No, No, I have been told many times that Mr Abbott is all good with women, the TV told me, so it must be true...

We took an Each Way bet in the Senate, there is NO Mandate

The vast majority of media have achieved their objective of getting Mr Abbott the top job, so I fail to understand why they are continuing to just repeat verbatim whatever comes out of the Coalition PR department, validating the ‘message’?

KRudd! I've a better line for you: Folks are dumb where I come from

WARNING! I will offend in the below, most is said in the most sarcastic tone, visualise red creeping up the neck from Blood Pressure and you will get an idea. I am normally a very proud Queenslander, State of Origin being a highlight of my year and I will cop the red-neck ribbing then, but when [...]
