Shut the border to Bali and China to stop Foot and Mouth disease. Do it now. We know what happened with our prawn industry with white spot. Nothing and CB our record on bio security is not good. GN To No Name. Regarding wasting ratepayers money on cruise terminal & cable way feasibility studies. I agree, stop wasting this money and just start building them. We need these tourism opportunities now. Laza Science Believer, you would do it well to follow your own advice. That “95% of world expert scientists” you so often quote is total garbage. It was a figure concocted by Al Gore and others to promote the ideas in his money making scare movie and has long since been debunked. Old Salt. What is all this “tribe” BS going around? 4218 Albo won the “cost of living” election and what a great job he’s doing, it’s going through the roof. Johnbrew Jolly Roger if you knew anything about glass production you would understand the last figured glass line capable of producing solar glass closed down maybe 15 years ago in Oz we now have only 1 float line left and we only have the ability to produce around 40% of local demand of float the balance comes from Asia mostly China and for this situation you can thank the greenies and teals. Mr MF

I’ve spoken to a lot of people much smarter than me about the RBA review where the Treasurer wants to ‘restore confidence in the RBA’. Everyone says they have total confidence in the RBA. Even comments like this only serve to cause pause in confidence surely. Looks all political, sounds all political to me.

Yeah Tom, I am going to carry 10 bags of shopping on the tram. Are you k kidding? Paul. Tugun. Legislation relating to companies and bankruptcies fails to protect creditors and allows principals of companies to avoid paying debts while continuing to maintain a luxurious personal lifestyle. It’s grossly unfair but no one seems to care except, of course, the people left out of pocket. It’s not against the law but should be, to prevent people living the life of Riley while people their companies owed money to miss out. Tugun Local, Wed Bulletin, rubbish collection now called Flexi Skip, try 56195221. Big blue bag left on footpath for collection. No charge to ratepayer. Pas Tugun. I haven’t heard many politicians saying they will follow the advice of health experts in managing Covid, the flu and other respiratory viruses sweeping the country, because they are not. Oh no! That would be unpopular.

Virgin buyers of old homes, dreamily imagine “if only these walls could talk & reveal their secrets of the past.” Yeah well, you’ll soon find out, if you’re silly enough to buy one, cos more often than not, old homes reveal way more “secrets,” than your budget can afford! Amen

The media did as you say rip into Scomo & Albo for being overseas at the time of the disasters, but unlike you they did not say that they could have stopped them happening if they were here. To answer your question it would have made no difference. So don’t talk dribble, get it right the first time you say something. Glen from Arundel Hi Billy, the answer to your question is the bleeding obviously. We previously had a virus racing through the unvaccinated and vulnerable population with a high death and disability rate. The population is now largely vaccinated and or partly immune and the impact of the virus has been mitigated by a 30 fold factor. It is not rocket science but simple public health statistics and logic. Quizzbird It intrigues me how AFL boss Gillon McLachlan harps on about Tasmania has to have a new Stadium before getting a license to enter the AFL competition. What for I keep saying, neither Perth or Adelaide had to have brand new billion dollar when there teams entered the National comp. That came later once they got 2 teams each. Gillon wants the Tassie government to put the cart before the horse with only one team only by spending 700 million for just 8 or 9 home games if 2 or 3 are played in Launceston as well. It doesn’t make sense until they can prove they need a bigger brand new one after 10 to 20 years depending on their level of success first with supporters and memberships. In the meantime Blunstone Arena just needs a touch up until then. DS.

Mann doesn’t tell it as is he tells it as he sees it through his right wing lenses. How about some balance to aid digestion? B2

How stupid is the government we know about foot and mouth disease so why aren’t we doing something to stop it coming to Australia in the first place? Please understand the facts, unnamed GCB 20/7.The industrial size solar panels (not the home roof type) are all made in China. Likewise the windmills and jumbo batteries. As in Palasczcuk’s ‘renewable farm’ being built in central Qld. Europe, in its insane stampede for renewables, is at the mercy of Russian gas supplies. Albo will likewise put Australia’s energy generation/storage equipment (windmills, batteries, solar panels ) in the hands of another totalitarian state: China. Jolly Roger Shaun Cunneen must be getting desperate to get his climate change message across if he has to include the Pope’s name among Shaun’s 10,000 phantom world expert climate scientist. No wonder Shaun’s constant exaggerated climate doomsday warnings attract so much criticism from the readers. Kenw. Hey Pablo, judging by your text, your knowledge of world rugby rankings is very limited. For your information mate, the ABS are currently 4th and the Wallabies are 6th. Sounds like you may be a league supporter so let me remind you that the world rugby league rankings are NZ 1st, Tonga 2nd, England 3rd and Australia 4th. If in doubt, check it out. Aussie supporters of both codes are very quiet at present. TJ. So, one third of Australia is to be lod

The last man on earth will die swearing climate change is a hoax. Ajs

So a fake Dr makes $90k from writing fake Covid exemption notices & the judge fined her $25 k with no conviction?? Sounds like a great way to make money. John Mc
