Australia completing the shift to a Eurasian country
Australia may in fact turn out to be the first Eurasian nation in history
Already in 1888 Reverend James Jefferies said that in Australia East and West would finally join hands. The nation of the future
In 1983, Bill Hayden, Labor’s Minister for Foreign Affairs, welcomed Australia’s probable Eurasian future. Later, Prime Minister Keating declared that Australia would become “the world’s first Eurasian nation”.
I did not know this. I thought I had announced it to the world five minutes ago in a tweet
But yes in a way every “land of the future” in the past 50 years has been Eurasian. Hong Kong, Singapore, Australia

People are surprised the UK will unilaterally cut tariffs and non tariff barriers in case of no deal. Why shouldn’t it? Value chains continue undisturbed. Then over time you reinstate them as you see fit
This after endless stories on shortages of essential goods - when that scenario is the easiest thing in the world to prevent
The Sky story is full of logical errors though

I am told there were 600 people listening to Bob Carr, @mcgregorrichard and myself today on Australia and China in Adelaide. With rapt attention, loud applause when merited. Just overwhelming. Where else would you get this?
So when some people told me at the end that the debate on China is not very good in Australia, my answer was, are you kidding me? Do you know what the debate on China is like in Brussels? Do you think anyone in Brussels knows what the United Front is?

Today I made a couple of good-humored but slightly dismissive comments about Macron. Can you believe people have written to me saying they agree but will not say it publicly “because Macron represents Europe”? Is this the continent of Milton, Locke, Voltaire? Speak up my friends
I would like to apologize for my comments. They were made in the heat of the moment without the necessary reflection
Yes, this apology was tongue in cheek

And this super bugs me because it's not like there aren't conservative news outlets out there. Does no one know how to call a library? This has been four months now according to Bongino that it's been out there.
The explanation of "I had it but couldn't confirm" doesn't work as an attack on the left for having it and not reporting it either because wouldn't they just say the same thing? Also, it's not that hard to get a yearbook they give them out to everyone and store them in libraries
And this being out there for months and coming out today on the first day of black history month is a terrible look too. This entire thing bugs me. Something's going on with this.

Putting aside my personal feelings about Macron Demission for a second, it is a great western culture of accountability that a pensioner confronts head of government with hard facts, and in that moment, he can't hide behind the wall of bureaucracy.

(2) It is also very hard to explain to this old lady why she has to subsidize the migrants her government is bringing tyo destroy her.
(3) You may be as unprepared for this as I am. #GiletsJaunes protesting Globalist taxes and mass migration flock in to give money to a homeless French citizen.

A thread on what transition for trans kids is like, because many people are under the false impression that kids are receiving irreversible medical treatment, causing parents to be labeled "child abusers" for loving and affirming their kids. 1/
First off: NO KIDS RECEIVE IRREVERSIBLE MEDICAL TREATMENT. Let that be said. Now we'll start at the very beginning. Many kids display GNC, gender non-conforming behavior: behavior we categorize as belonging to a gender. Boys playing with dolls. Girls playing with trucks.
These kids are NOT all trans. They might not be in any way LGBT. Nothing happens when a child simply doesn't adhere to the restrictions society has placed on gender. It's when a child actively challenges their assigned gender that you can even start to THINK they might be trans.

#History/#Art thread – From my recent trip to Madurai/Tirunelveli. On Jain sites (some with a rich history dating back to at least the 3rd cent. BCE), early Pandyan rock-cut cave temples (7th-8th cent. CE) & the amazing Vettuvan koil.

Pic: Mahavira (~8 cent CE), Kizhakuyilkudi
Before I start on the places, the history around all this is fascinating & splits opinion. Is it apt to call the script Tamili/Tamil Brahmi? Did it develop independently in the Tamil country/come with the Jain monks from the north? Were 8,000 Jains actually impaled in Madurai?>
>Were the Saivites overaggressive in promoting their faith? Shall only be happy to discuss on these separately (unless it gets too long/irrational). And I’m not posting every inscription from the places here, despite their importance. Again, shall be happy to discuss them.

Another school shooting in the US today. It’s tragic, it’s horrible & escalating in our gun culture.
…
I💚Math. An int’l language, it makes sense to me when the rest of the world doesn’t. Especially when it comes to numbers & statistics on guns in the US

everytownresearch.org/gun-violence-b…
Statistically, in the US a shooting incident takes place every 60 hours. We are down to hours in between shootings. Not days, weeks, months or years. It’s HOURS.

Every day in the US, 96 people die from gun violence & 222 people are shot but survive.

➡️ bradycampaign.org/key-gun-violen…
Australia, had 4 mass shootings between 1987–1996. After 1996, It took Parliament just 12 days to pass stricter gun laws. They haven’t had a mass shooting since. It’s been 34 days since Parkland.

The US needs to follow their lead.
Here’s how they did it

A brief recap of how the Democrats and Lindsey Graham (a RINO / Left-wing sympathizer) tried to derail DACA and attempted to cause racial divides...
This is the @CBSNews version which spread quickly to the race-baiting @CNN team that had near mental breakdowns over this PRIVATE meeting in the Oval Office where it’s alleged that Trump stated he didn’t want a steady flow of immigrants from “shit hole” nations.
Now let’s just agree that Trump “may” have used that phrase... he said he didn’t, and others in the room didn’t hear it either... but I will concede he may have. So what?? It was a private meeting. But, there’s more...
