I have many points. Sometimes I’ll get to the point. Sometimes I’ll totally miss the point.
By following me you’ll be plugged into The Power Point. Just hope you don’t get electrocuted.
All photos I post are mine, unless I point out that they are not.

Please chat to your less technical family & friends & give them some concrete examples and tips on how to recognise red flags in emails.
Maybe suggest they identify someone they trust to advise them if they’re in doubt.

#Australian Federal Government agencies & departments who use the MyGov system, always remind Australians that they will never put #Links in their emails & text messages. The fact that this one offers you a #SecureLink is a very #BigRedFlag!

Another sign it’s a scam email …
It says the sender is Medicare, but then provides a message from the #AustralianTaxOffice #ATO. In real life, Medicare does not send out ATO related mail, and vice versa!

What are some signs it is a #Scam?
Check the address it originated from. This one comes from a random gmail address. Legitimate emails from the government should have an address like: <sender’s mailbox address> at <agency/department name> < .gov.au>.

I’m sure if Jill was a #GoodWife she’d run a daily barrage of medical testing, to ensure Joe is in and stays in tip top health.
Fancy her not being able to understood those daily test results. Shame on her.

Noah’s ark actually happened and two of every animal cruised the high seas with Noah and his family. Of course the dragons ate most of the animals during the trip. Sad face.

Thanks my dude.
My memory is poor. Just so I’m clear, what verses of the Bible state this?
Is it in the same section as the one about not mixing the types of threads you wear? I can’t remember.

I don’t think it is complicated at all. More education is required.

Tony’s initial cabinet included one token female, Julie Bishop.

In their article, Mama Mia said « The PM has said that he is “disappointed” that there aren’t more women in power. “Nevertheless there are some very good and talented women knocking on the door of the cabinet,” he said, while keeping it firmly shut.»

Hmmm, the cloak of moss might be doable but where can we obtain those other items? Is there a quest involved?

This reminds me that I have to memorise all the dates that big companies first hit the stock market, so I can channel Biff from Back To The Future.

Just one question. If no-one puts their hand up, because they all think it’s a poisoned chalice, will the work-experience kid get the gig?

I don’t like disparaging Ssusssan just because she is female. That isn’t fair.
She could be shit at the job, same as the blokes mentioned.
BUT, in the current climate it might be the ONLY way to get a woman into the Lib leadership position.
That matters, because someone has to blaze the trail.

Maybe after you say I’m from USA, you add a mild comment to give the clue that you’re upset with what’s been happening there. ‘We’ve been looking forward to getting out of there for a bit’.
Then see where the conversation goes. Some people avoid politics like the plague when they’re on holidays.

I can assure you he won’t qualify for Centrelink benefits.
He’ll no doubt be offered a cushy job by a Lib supporter lickity split. That’s how their old boy/nepo system works.

Sounds like that won’t be necessary. If word on the street is correct, he has already advised he won’t be contending the seat at the next election. From memory he jagged the seat on UAP preferences and I don’t know if anyone would fall for that a second time.

Every state has 12 senators with each senator in the role for 6 years, with 1/2 up for election each time. Babet’s 6 year term only started in 2022. If you want him out you will need to wait until the 2028 election.
Disclaimer: ACT and NT only have 2 senators each and they only sit for 3 years.

Is it ethical to move to whatever state this toss pot is a senator for in time to help them vote him out in 2028?

She may be a lower calibre than women in the Labor and independents. I am arguing that she is unlikely to be worse than some of the suggested male ‘talent’ in the Libs. We need to change the narrative.
comment in response to
post
Well you can but it would mean big changes to what we are used to.
How many people know that the constitution doesn’t say the prime minister has to come from the HoR? It is silent on the matter of PMs.

But it IS the problem! Last night even the female Libs failed to mentioned Susssan as a possibility. Susssan is the deputy leader, why doesn’t that put her in the front spot? Can she do the job? I don’t know. But sure as eggs the blokes already mentioned will get a free pass.
comment in response to

It’s immaterial as I don’t get a vote. IMO they only put her in as deputy so they could pretend they don’t have a women problem. Abbot was the absolute worst for this.
In my view they are all (male and female alike) a group of toxic individuals. She is as good/bad as any of the blokes.

Following the #BinNight removal of Dutton, the Libs need to elect a new #OppositionLeader.
I #Predict that even though Susssan Ley is deputy leader, no one in the party will even suggest a #Female for the leadership role (unless it’s for a joke.)
It would be #Unthinkable.
Happy to be wrong!

Yes, it’s worrying how many of them are out there, especially since covid hit our shores. In my opinion they’ll never coalesce into one big group because they could never agree on how to agree. Their respective agendas are all over the place.
