One of the family went for hols recently to Hong Kong.
We were a bit antsy about them visiting a communist country - then decided it probably beats the shit out of traveling to USA at moment.
They enjoyed their hol.
I'm not sure anyone could ever say that about the USA anymore.
Come downunder!
Oh, and by the way, these same corporates to whom we give our gas away for free have the gall to sell OUR FREE gas back to us at premium prices.

Morning. ☕️
Can we impose a "levy" on everything that comes out of his mouth, then?
#Auspol I keep saying it's LNPPHON not LNP v PHON.
There's now three vessels to funnel votes into one ultimate pocket is all.

With UBI, workers could walk, knowing they'd be okay. And employers would have a hard time replacing them if they offer bad deals.
Its not a #climatescam
Wildfires used to ‘go to sleep’ at night. Climate change has them burning overtime
