Yes! Finally someone writes about Sports.
Would have made more sense in the first budget. We needed infrastructure investment immed. then.
Now that engineers and tradies have gone, who will build these schools and hospitals?
She’s 2 1/2 years too late.
One more little thing…
For Gods sake! We MUST mandate our vote. We must vote. YOU must bloody vote!
If you disagree? Then you’re either an idiot or you have a vested interest in the divisive tactics used to make it easier for our exploiters to continue exploiting us.
Our AO/NZ = a fertile land area larger then the UK by about 29 thousand square kilometres and there are only 5. point fucking 3 million of us. Our AO/NZ’s primary economy is derived from agricultural produce which we export to winter bound markets. Our AO/NZ is broke arse fucked which indicates that our farmers are completely gaslighted and our urban population is entirely without a clue as to what’s going on as is evident in their mindless hatred of farmers yet pass the butter and the meat and veggies and all that useful money.
We have a line up of politicians hoping to be re elected and Ooooo Eeeeee man, what a fucking line up. A bald, stumpy, faker-maker, a geriatric human ash tray in pin stripes and a, what the actual fuck is seymour? Is he a glitch in the matrix? Each word he issues past those thin lips and shark teeth suggests they’re sprayed with some kind of lubricant. You’ve got to remember, please, that we’re fucked because our politicians were told to fuck us. If you drive a car you will know that when you do, you must look through the windscreen. If you want to live in a beautiful country like AO/NZ you must look through the lying politician scum who pretend they’re there for you then do the complete opposite once elected. Make our vote compulsory!
Getting paid huge money, high six figures plus expenses of OUR money, to convert pies to shit.
