Now, I’m usually good with technology… I am a man, after all and we’re meant to be good at things.
Anyway, I tried to embed this video and the best I could do was to insert a link. Here is the link: The link
I hope the link works and it doesn’t disappear into some black hole which makes it look like I’m just making it up but in this little video.
Tony and Angus are drinking beer – possibly after the polly peddle thing (or should it be “pedal”? Works either way) – and Tony says that while he was wasting his time in England boxing and things like that, Angus was doing a PH.D on cheap beer and…
It’s sort of strange.
Angus did a Ph.D about beer? I mean, is this a joke or what? Are they mocking academia by suggesting that most Ph.Ds are a waste of time? Or did Angus actually do a doctorate on beer but it was rejected because those Brits don’t appreciate beer like we Aussies do?
I mean, they’re joking… obviously. And nobody should outraged but…
When people say, “Look, it was a joke!”, sometimes the only response is: “Sorry, I didn’t realise because it wasn’t remotely funny…”
And speaking of jokes, there’s something funny David Farley, the first One Nation person ever to be elected to a lower house seat accidentally walking into the Liberal meeting and saying something along the lines of being able to see himself there.
I mean that would be outrageous; just ask Barnaby Joyce. It’s pretty bad when someone stands for election for one party then ditches it after the election to join another party… Ok, don’t ask Barnaby Joyce because he had good reasons… Perhaps ask that other One Nation politician, Cory Bernardi who ditched the Liberals to start his own party.
Yes, I can see that Farley leaving for the Liberals would be terrible and all those people in Farrer who voted against the Liberals would feel betrayed. Leaving and sitting as an independent however, would be much better because an independent got most votes after the One Nation candidate.
Enough about hypotheticals… Actually, I’ve always enjoyed it when a politician – after speaking about several hypothetical situations – gets a difficult question and replies with: “I’m not going to get into hypotheticals…”
But moving on to something that’s actually happened: Trump has renamed Lake Ontario and it’s now Lake America as far as he’s concerned. He went on to say that they had a gulf, a lake and now all they need is an ocean. When I said to someone after he first suggested renaming Lake Ontario that he might rename the Atlantic Ocean next, I presumed that was making a joke. However, Trump went on to speculate that he might rename “the Atlantic or the Pacific… or possibly both.”
Mm, I wonder how renaming both would work. When people talked about something being in the American Ocean would they have to say “the American Ocean that used to be known as Pacific” so that people knew that they weren’t talking about the Atlantic American Ocean? Or would he just name one of them the Trump Ocean and charge people for the naming rights? Maybe Canada could rename themselves “North America” and add a slogan “We’re the bit that’s on top”. Or maybe they could just rename the USA, the DSA or Disconnected States of America…
Ah well, it’s all hypothetical… at least this week.
Barnaby likes beer, beer, more beer, buggerall work, bonkery, blather, bullshitting (just for a larf…), being noticed yet left peculiarly alone as unreliable, and, BIG piles of incoming funny money anytime. Yaaiirrsss.
Barnaby was reported to have said, when he lost the Deputy Prime Ministership and Leadership of the National Party, that speculation about him quitting politics was all hypothetical. Apart for which, even as a backbencher in opposition, where could he find a job where he was well paid, didn’t have to do anything beyond turning up from time to time with a generous pension scheme?
And the people of New England said, ‘let it be so!’
The link – RAbbott was wasting his time in an English University where undergraduates are expected to consider boxing as a ”sport” rather than a career choice. Anus had enough time to holiday in England masquerading as a student and being gifted a bit of paper.
Pity both of them travelled as Rhodes Scholars rather than their own expense; THAT simply degraded the academic standards of the award for excellence in young students.
What does B stand for??? B stands for Barnaby, the self serving former NOtional$ now incumbent PHONey MP for New England, whose exploits disgraced Australian politics and our electorate.
Barnaby has a nick-name Beetrooter to express voter contempt for his boozing, bullying, bull sh*tting and general self-serving representation of his personal interests for the past 13 years since first elected.
But restricting description to only words starting with ”B” does not do justice to his many talents like adultery, alcoholism, corruption, deception, egomania, fornication, philandering and misogyny.
Anybody for a railway line to move CSG from on and around your Pilliga Scrub ”grazing properties” located over the SANTOS CSG-fields that with drilling ”accidents” will likely pollute the Great Australian Basin groundwater supply for western NSW agriculture??
However, Beetrooter’s move to the PHONeys was likely caused by the Tamworth Re-election Committee for 2028 elections tapping him on the shoulder to retire rather than grant the necessary automatic pre-selection.
The Farrer electorate got conned by Farley and a very suitable INDEPENDENT candidate, Michelle Milthorpe, was defeated by BIG MONEY from the Billionaires Club wanting to be able to dictate government policies for their own financial benefit.
However, guess what?? The elected candidates for the PHONeys have generally had a short future because of the tyrannical dictatorship control required by Pawleen. So, where do all the ”donations” from aspiring pre-selection candidates go?? Why do aspiring PHONeys pre-selected candidates have to purchase all their political printed propaganda from a company where Pawlein & Little Jiminy Ashby have a financial interest??
The best interests of voters in the Farrer electorate would be served by encouraging Michelle Milthorpe to stand for a third election (just as Malcolm Fraser did) and remove the superannuation building current pretender to the joys of retirement.
@ Terry Mills; Agreed. Beetrooter has very rarely done an honest days work for anybody except himself. He is the ideal role model for every NOtional$ pre-selection candidate and established politician ….. and his failings have made him a millionaire on the public purse. Well done!!??
“B”? Add brainless, boofhead, bean brain, buffoon.
“Trump has renamed Lake Ontario and it’s now Lake America as far as he’s concerned.”
He’s been beaten to the punch by Canada.
They’ve renamed them —
Lake Sexual Predator
Lake Forever Wars
Lake Pedophile
Lake Epstein
Lake Bankruptcy

It has only just started.
Canada has pointed out that America was named after an Italian sailor (Amerigo Vespucci) and Trump has taken the bait and is demanding that the name be immediately changed : coincidentally, an opportunity has arisen to buy some obsolete red caps cheaply.
On another side note – Auntie Gina kindly donated Pawlein an about $1 million plane that Jiminy Ashby just happened to have recently obtained his Pilots Licence. Just coincidence or evidence of pre-planning??
The ownership of this aircraft is unclear from MSM reports. Was it a personal gift or bribe to Poorlean or was it a gift to the PHONeys political ”party” (which is essentially ” owned” by the dictator who has been reported as mixing personal finances with PHONEY finances).
Regardless, how long will it be before Pawlean puts the aircraft into a business entity so that she may be flown by Ashby around the country spreading hate, misinformation and victimhood??
Think of the financial benefits – the entity charges Pawlean for transport who claims it as legitimate travel expenses to political events. Little Jiminy get paid for being the pilot. Another neat scam brought by the PHONeys using the Parliamentary Allowances Scheme for the subsequent benefits.
