Protesting asylum seekers refusing water

‘..Climate Commissioner Tim Flannery in 2007 said we’d never again get those flooding rains:
Flannery predicted cities such as Brisbane would never again have dam-filling rains, as global warming had caused “a 20 per cent decrease in rainfall in some areas” and made the soil too hot, “so even the rain that falls isn’t actually going to fill our dams and river systems … “…’

says everything you need to know about the stealth socialist.

‘..We are watching a genuine dictatorship in the making. These people have no regard for democracy, and their Socialist ideology is simply a softer version of the Communist ideology that murdered over 100 million people over the last century, whilst simultaneously destroying the economies and societies of the nations it infected.

Ain’t that the truth!

‘Failed ministry has highest pay rates
The future of some government ministries is again in the spotlight after damning reviews of both the ministries of women’s and Pacific Island affairs.
A State Services Commission report identified poor policy, limited skills, high overheads and a heavy reliance on bigger agencies.
Despite the report, those working for Pacific Island Affairs were, on average, paid almost $20,000 more than other public sector workers…..
Women’s Affairs
Reviewers criticised the management, work culture, financial management and policy advice of the agency, but did express confidence in the leadership..’
