I've worked out the reason why PM @ScottMorrisonMP is crashing & burning right before our eyes.

Because, it's hard to soar like an eagle when you're surrounded by turkeys.

Exhibit A: Let's take a look at the Morrison Ministry and just SOME of their fuck-ups. #auspol #qt
Nigel Scullion – the Minister for Indigenous Affairs who voted for Hanson’s ‘it’s OK to be white’

O’Dwyer - #insiders appearance - talking about govt delaying banking RC
Michael McCormack – who?

Bridget McKenzie – excessive expenses claims
dailymail.co.uk/news/article-6…
Sussan Ley – voting against her own Bill smh.com.au/politics/feder…
Josh Frydenberg - Melissa Price actually makes Joshie look like a competent Environment Minister
Stuart Robert - 280 characters ain't enough for Stu
independentaustralia.net/politics/polit…
Mathias Cormann – can’t count, can’t read
thenewdaily.com.au/news/national/…
Christopher Pyne – I don’t know where to start
Steven Ciobo – ‘slit Julia Gillard’s throat’ comment
Marise Payne – voted for Hanson’s ‘it’s OK to be white’

Simon Birmingham - voted for Hanson’s ‘it’s OK to be white’

Connie Fierravanti-Wells - voted for Hanson’s ‘it’s OK to be white’
Christian Porter – blamed staff for ‘escalation’ problems…twice
theguardian.com/australia-news…
Peter Dutton – wannabee PM, all-round total cunt

Mitch Fifield – stacked the Board of the ABC, voted for Hanson’s ‘it’s OK to be white’
abc.net.au/news/2018-10-1…
Michaelia Cash – leaked about an AFP raid, now being investigated by AFP, voted for Hanson’s ‘it’s OK to be white’ & who could forget her ever-so-professional Senate Estimates slur on Shorten’s staff, followed shortly afterwards by 'The Whiteboard' thing
Matt Canavan – complicit in Barnaby Joyce’s jobs for the mistress

Dan Tehan – an education Minister who thinks Africa is a country

Greg Hunt – chucked a foul-mouthed tanty at a meeting with Katherine Mayor
abc.net.au/news/2018-05-3…
Ken Wyatt – denied Australia needed a RC into Aged Care then backflipped and announced a RC into Aged Care.
abc.net.au/news/2018-09-1…
Sara Henderson - didn’t want to be known as the Member for Cox

Michelle Landry – I’m still not sure that’s she’s not a ring-in from One Nation

David Littleproud – fights to keep live exports, lights are on but no-one’s home
Melissa Price – two months in the job: has dismissed a report by 91 scientists and pissed off a South Pacific leader
Angus Taylor – climate science denying Energy Minister

That just leaves Karen Andrews, Alan Tudge, Darren Chester, Alex Hawke
who haven’t monumentally fucked-up…. yet.
#auspol #qt
It would be remiss of me not to mention our two Special Envoys:

Tony Abbott - Special Envoy for Indigenous Affairs visits NT gets chucked out
ntnews.com.au/news/northern-…
Barnaby Joyce - Special Envoy for Drought Assistance and Recovery

Um...... the Nationals are all pulling our leg about wanting him back aren't they?

They're shitting us, surely, aren't they????????

Remember when @stuartrobertmp received two Rolex watches, for himself & his wife, from a Chinese billionaire in 2013?

Stu was supposed to have returned those two watches, he said he did, they were valued at $100K

Ain't no evidence he ever did, but I may have found them!
#auspol
Well, to this day, Stu hasn't updated his pecuniary interests register to say that he returned them.

So 'officially' he still has them.
#auspol
Funny thing, I was just reading through some papers tabled in QLD parliament about Spud & former Ipswich Mayor Paul Pisasale & Asian prostitutes & visas.

I noticed something interesting, Paul Pisasale had a pigeon pair of gold Rolex watches, I wonder where he got them?

I heard on the news tonight that it was predicted that shoppers 'splurged' $2.5 billion in the 2018 Boxing Day sales.

This amount of $$ is bandied about as if it is some kind of yardstick on the health of the economy.

So, I thought I'd compare past sales & population.
#auspol
We're still spending the same as predicted in 2012 but our population has increased by about 4 million since then.

If Boxing Day sales are a a yardstick then it's a telling indicator of the lack of confidence & spending ability of consumers after 5+ years of LNP govt.
#auspol
Here are 'predictions' from past years that show sales predictions today are the same as 2012 even though the population has increased somewhat - starting at 2017.

2017 - Boxing Day sales amount prediction in $$$
$2.4 billion

1/ I'm thinking out loud here

Yesterday @JoshFrydenberg releases ridiculous Morrison-hostage-style video

Today, he & @SenatorCash release a joint statement & Joshie does serious media on 2GB/Sky/ABC radio+tv/Courier Mail/6PR about $2 BILLION (there's that word again!)
#auspol
2/ investment in & establishment of a ongoing fund to prop-up non-bank lenders for small biz loans.

On ABC this am he said the hostage-video had 'achieved the desired result'- which was what? smoke & mirrors? Distraction from today's announcement?
3/ Joshie says we have 'immature or underdeveloped securitisation' in Aust.

What this means is: non-bank lenders who lend to small biz charge high rates bcuz it's high risk, their debt can't be sold on. So, Joshie wants to effectively buy their debt.

1. I got a little ranty today about this caravan business. A thread, for those who don't want the 3K-word version. vox.com/policy-and-pol…
2. First, let's all just acknowledge what is obvious: this is a group of poor refugees, families fleeing hardship. They are on foot, weeks from the border. Their numbers are already dwindling. Calling this a "national emergency," as Trump did, is ludicrous.
3. Ludicrous is nothing new in the RW swamps, of course, but this episode strikes me as ominously different in a few ways. For one thing, it is so *obviously* ludicrous -- almost theatrically ridiculous, as though some hack writer were charged w/ writing a xenophobic panic.

1. In 2009, the Dept. of Homeland Security issued a report warning of a resurgence in domestic right-wing terrorism -- white supremacist groups & anti-gov't militias triggered (if you will) by the election of America's first black president (among other things).
2. Right-wingers whined & complained (aided & abetted by their own propaganda outlets & by a supine, gullible MSM) until Janet Napolitano, head of DHS at the time, withdrew the report & disbanded the research group that wrote it.
3. As Daryl Johnson, the lead author of the report at DHS, pointed out in 2016: the report was right. Right-wing domestic terrorism has steadily increased ever since. govtech.com/em/safety/Disa…

So, it's about time I finally did it. Join me as I play Thief: The Dark Project; I've never got further than The Sword before. Thanks to the No Spiders mod from @adurdin I hope to actually finish it this time. #ThiefTDP
I'll be playing Thief Gold. I have multiple copies of The Dark Project but they'd require me to dig through boxes to find. Thief Gold is the only one reliably available online. I am reserving the right to level skip past the Thieves Guild, though. #ThiefTDP
I'll be using the New Dark version, but sticking to a 4:3 aspect ratio. #ThiefTDP
