Disclosure Day
What would you think if definitive proof of alien life emerged? Would it consign all religious thought to, as Mark Twain once predicted, the fate of a stuffed ornament in museums? How would suggestive confirmation of the principles of uniformity and…

A true labor man to the end!!! It’s a shame his dead but the timing is impeccable.
LOL, did he plan it for the election?
I am a bum then. No way will I vote for a party that wants a death tax or one that has always sent us into massive debt. We are now in surplus. Sorry, but cold day in hell would I ever vote for a party with Bill Shorten as a leader.
lucky for us you will be in the minority come Saturday!!!
We will see. Everyone gets a vote. PS, We are now in a budget surplus, tell me when that happens with Labour?
You were saying Brad? LOL
Brad. If you thought BS was going to be PM then I strongly question your intelligence. If there has ever been a leader of one of the main parties that has about as much charisma as roadkill, then he is it. I can’t believe that anyone thought that the majority of Australians would vote for him. I have no party preference but Scomo won me the easiest 100 bucks ever. Candy from a baby lol. Pity I gave it back to the TAB yesterday.
Mate, (Electric Eel) We are not in surplus.
Please, do a bit of research before you shoot your mouth off in public.
We are not in surplus! Frydenberg in his budget speech, remembering a budget is only what you project will happen over the next 12 months, said we will be in surplus but that won't be proven until next year.
Anyway, this blog is about the passing of Bob Hawke. RIP, Bob.
Feck what a shit way to reference the death of a former PM and a great bloke.
