Bega Beauties

Shane  at Bega

G'day Petals,

Mrs Wombat and I  took a little trip North to the East coast of NSW t' other day.

To say that it is very beautiful country understates its quality and to ignore eating its Oysters, a sin of omission.

Beginning week two of the election campaign saw the TV "Logies" awarded. On winning the "Gold" Logie, Waleed Ali an Egyptian born Muslim and commentator of acute sensibility began his acceptance speech with, "Do not adjust your sets....." and finished with  "....I'm sure you have an app which will return your colour to its normal tone."

Having been subjected to quite severe and nastily stupid criticism with another contender, newsreader Lee Lin Chin for even being promoted as worthy of a "gong," Ali's later comments as to the importance of the award demonstrated with his balanced and thoughtful approach the reason for his success.

Proving just how worthy of the award Ali was a couple of evenings later, Timmy "Twat -ex Freedom Boy- IPA Clone- and presumptive Member for Goldstein" Wilson was asked on "The Drum" for his opinion on the win.  Unable to entangle his small mind from the "Free-Market" rote he spouts automatically, Timmy's mouth pursed into a sphincter-like dot as he gracelessly avoided Waleed Ali's success entirely and clumsily spat out a "...congratulations to all the winners". If ever there was a compare and contrast test of intelligence, wit and capacity for humanity, this was it; and the contemptible and miserably untalented Timmy, failed. Again.

Malacoota

That same night on QandA forms of the ruling rabble in the guise of Kelly "Shaduppa-Yo-Face" O' Dwyer and Innes Willox, CEO of The Australian Industry Group scored "own goals" when audience member Duncan Storrar simply asked why is it the wealthy get tax cuts and people like himself who are really struggling get nothing? The loquacious O'Dwyer gave an interestingly arcane example of how a $6,000.00 toaster to a cafe owner she knew would create more jobs and Willox whose tie would have probably cost more than Storrar's weekly wage, said that as he paid no tax on a low wage what was he complaining about! 
Storrar reminded him that he paid GST on everything he bought and that made his circumstance more parlous than someone on $80,000.00 P.A.

The audience cheered and smelled capitalist blood !

The upshot of all this was that another audience member set up a crowd-funding site to buy Duncan a toaster..... which has since raised $60,000.00 which he has said he will use for his two daughter's education.

Not only a sublime exposition of the tawdry fallacies behind the theory of "Trickle-Down" economics and the arrogance of those who would promote it but it also allowed the gutter tactics of "The Ugly American" Murdoch's propaganda sheets to be reprised by going into overdrive to besmirch Storrar's reputation for having the temerity to question the Ruling Rabble's "Right-to-Rule".

If anyone now doesn't see how our Democracy works, they really are blind, stupidly blind.

Pambula

"The Ugly American" controls around 80% of news services in this country which perhaps explains why the ruling rabble can feel confident that their hubris and lying will not cause them much grief...Dominatrix, Peta "Bloody-Idiot" Credlin now moonlighting as a commentator on commercial TV slapped Prime Miniature "Truffles" Turdball around a bit by calling him "Mr. Harbour-side Mansion" and suggested that his election tactics are poor. She was happily supported in this  by her lap-dog and ex PM, Rabid-the-Hun who found her soliloquy "....absolutely riveting."

It was not known whether Rabid had a mouthful of onion at the time.

Rabid has kicked off his own campaign with a cohort of the remnants of  "Team Australia", (Warringah Chapter) bedecked in uniform "T's" and wildly cheering as their jut-jawed fuehrer strode amongst them instilling steel into them for the final solution... er, push!

Sophie "Pit-Bull" Mirabella is blaming her own side for "leaking" against her... geez, Soph...  why would they bother... you did such a good job of shooting yourself in the foot two or three times last week that do you really think they need to do that?

Eve at Tathra Wharf

Pambula2
In conversation with locals throughout the trip, when the subject of politics came up, more often than not a sense of resignation and even frustration was expressed as to where the country is heading. Sometimes there was mild anger, but with all an expectation that issues like manufacturing, foreign ownership, social equity, health, education and jobs be addressed.

Corryong

 That the ruling rabble's grip on power is looking decidedly shaky in their first term and with both Victoria and Queensland having tossed out in their first terms, incompetent "Free-Market" conservative administrations, the future for this less than adroit cabal in Canberra looks terminal.

But if they do manage through the agency of "The Ugly American's"  propaganda sheets to maintain power, there is I think, little leeway for them to repeat the mistakes already perpetrated on the nation.

The simmering frustrations might not as they have in the past, be held in check. The mood is different. 

Hoo-roo Possums,

Shane      

….once more

Shane travelling

G’day Possums,

It’s time for a change of scene.

With the little Wombats looking after the burrow, Mrs W and I are off to France again.

After some time in Paris we perambulate to Rouen then across Normandy into Brittany following a sort of reverse ‘44 Invasion route. 

From there we waddle onto a boat to visit one of Mrs W’s “rellies” in Cornwall for a few days, wend our way to London and on the way, probably see every English garden ever planted.

The Bayeux Tapestry is one of the “must’s” listed, as is Caen, Camembert and Calvados.

 It will be interesting too, to compare the solid spatial harmonies of the French Romanesque to English Norman







and some of the Parisienne Art Nouveau architecture of Jules Lavirotte


with buildings like






the Watt Chapel in Kent and to visit the village in Kent that allegedly my C17th Wombat ancestors came from.

 ....and one more from the last shoot….

Dancer: Naomi S.

Wombat Droppings..

Or

the demise of Egalitarian Oz and its morphing into Fascism.

On the listing rust-bucket SS Liarbril, Captain Rabid-the-Hun has become 3.5% more popular.

Rarely venturing from the newly fortified bunker of his parliamentary cabin, Rabid’s lack of sightings has seemingly pleased the crew no end. This and the bonus of “Cereal-Toyota-Killer” Eleventy Hockey speaking positively about the worsening economic forecasts has lulled the Aspirational Bogan crew into a comfortably dull miasma with words like "... it's better to make a profit than to make a loss because ultimately you make more money out of a profit than you do out of a loss".... just like an anaesthetic.

Content at no longer having to think, the crew of SS Liarbril drowsily ignore the sounds of the bashing of the President of the Human Rights Commission, Gillian Triggs emanating from the engine room. Captain Rabid, “The-Drone” Morrison (he with blood on his hands), “Bookshelves” Brandis and Neanderthal Senators various, are bullying her over her recommendation that a refugee from Indonesian occupied West Papua who has spent nearly eight years incarcerated after completing his seven (?) year sentence on being convicted for manslaughter, be compensated.

It was felt that because of his involvement in the “Free West Papua” movement he couldn’t be repatriated back to West Papua without fear for his life and Triggs has recommended that compensation at a rate equivalent to $50,000 per year of his incarceration be offered.

Inconveniently coming at the same time as the Moss report which showed that “Bloody” Morrison lied about his allegations that aid workers assisted concentration camp inhabitants on Manus Island in self harm methods and that the sexual abuse of refugee children in the camps is other than he said and rife and also at being so obviously at odds with the prevailing ethics of the ruling rabble, Triggs needs to be shown the error of her thinking.

Bloody Morrison then “turned some stomachs” when seen cavorting with children in the SS Liarbril’s crèche. It is understood that after fumigation and washing the children suffered no real harm but will only have bad dreams for a few weeks.

                                                                                                  Timmy ”Twat-Freedom-Man” Wilson again, is nowhere of importance to be seen but his fellow “Coot-With-Queer-Ideas-From-a-Parallel-Universe” (aka IPA) “Bunter” Berg is, bobbing around regularly obfuscating debates on ABC”s “The Drum.”

Chris "Bunter" Berg, IPA

In his latest Libertarian-lite, poppy-cock, and playing the most current popular game of the Ruling Rabble: “Shoot-the-Messenger,” “Bunter” was opining that the Government’s Statutory Sports Drug watchdog, ASADA should be investigated by a Royal Commission because it couldn't definitively prove that the Essendon FC injected 34 of its players with banned substances and it was all Labor's fault anyway.

Unfortunately for “Bunter” his arguments generally have all the force of a ball of vapid vapour thrown at low speed; you watch it dissipate as it meanders toward you, then you exhale and “Puff”…… gone!

Perhaps a Royal Commission into the football club, its “sports-scientist-drug-supplier”, the coach, management team and the board might be the proper target but the rules on board SS Liarbril are Orwellian/Kafka-esque at present.

Which is a bit like Captain Rabid’s newest thought-bubble (probably courtesy of his bosses at the IPA?) of limiting the chances and opportunity for independent senators being elected.

All in the name of strengthening democracy mind you.

Sort of like the old aphorism so beloved of Senator “Vichy” Abetz, “Freedom through Work!” Or how 800,000 unemployed can disappear in filling 150,000 vacancies.

Hoo-roo Petals,

G'day Possums.. just a short one this week.

I've been having a gander at some English medieval architecture... interesting stuff it is too.

 The one in the pic is Wells Cathedral  might be worth a look I reckon.

Wombat Droppings

or the chronicle of the demise of a Egalitarian Nation 

Saturn Devouring his Children

Well, Rabid-the-Hun, in his first act of consultative collegiality has sacked his "whip" and "Father of the House" Phillip Ruddock. Seems Rabid wants to hear more from his revolting back-benchers before the Ides of March.  Ruddock was a good Liarbril.   He was not what one would call a "good-bloke." Amnesty International asked him not to wear his Amnesty badge whilst on government business because of his treatment of Asylum seekers and he was investigated for alleged bribery on an immigration matter.... Ya gotta hand it to the Liarbrils, when loyalty needs showing it's often in very short supply.... 

It's been a week since "Good Government" allegedly has returned to Oz and Joe "Cereal-Toyota-Killer" Hockey after dropping his bottom lip at a tough interview with Sarah Henderson and getting her slapped on the wrist by ABC management has gone off sulking because no-one appreciated the genius of his first budget... and now he's got another one to do.... which sort of depends on the first.There is much speculation that Joe might soon  be a victim of another "Night of The Long Knives"episode.

Gillian Triggs, Human Rights Commissioner has handed down a damning report on child abuse in the Asylum Seeker concentration camps. Both sides of politics got hammered in the report but Rabid-the-Hun and some of his feral media lackeys decided that the best way to deal with child abuse was to viciously abuse the report's author.
Triggs' fellow Commissioner, Timmy"Twat-Freedom-Man" Wilson the ex IPA and Liarbril Libertarian who would have had a hand in producing the report for his $390,000.00 wage, has been unheard and unseen in defense of his boss. It would seem that not only does freedom of speech  not extend to raising concerns about child safety in concentration camps but neither is impartial advice needed.

The Libertarian

Hallmarks of "Good Governance" for this Liarbril rabble seem to be brutish bullying and bully-boy intimidation.

Then there was "Von Ribbentrop" Turnbull play-acting the "good liarbril" on QandA last night. All soothing words and waffle... I nearly threw-up when he said that as a country we need research and innovation when he's wholeheartedly supported stripping funding from CSIRO research and he's responsible for bowdlerising the NBN that will cost the country big-time in the not too distant future.This pretend patrician, this shallow faker... Different Dunny..same shit.

So this is Orstraya! 

The Aspirational Bogan Paradise. 

Where mindless selfishness is applauded and anti-intellectualism celebrated, bully-boy behaviour practised and misogyny is humourous.

In their finest embodiment, characteristics found in abundance in our holy owned office-boys club, the Larbril Party.

Leadership…. Pffffft! 

Rule, that is strength

Hooroo, Petals.

Wombat Droppings; Low Down Oz politics.

Coal Seam Gas (Metgasco chief executive) Peter Henderson told the media group that the present system ‘serves us well’…..as long as people are stupid and keep believing what they read and watch in the “Ugly American’s” press.. like,  we’re running out of gas.. that no, the world price we’re going to get isn’t going to push up local prices and when in 30 years we’ve buggered off with the profits and left your water tables and farmlands a mess, you’ll thank us… or not……we really don’t give a F**K!

Prime Miniature, “Rabbutt-the-Hun’s” department-of-Credlin has reportedly became more bizarre by declaring that its own advice on how staff should use Facebook and Twitter is a secret… even though this was after it was widely reported across the country.

The Credlin Department's leaked Social Media Policy attracted controversy because it urges public servants to dob on colleagues who use the internet to criticise politicians or policies, even if they do so anonymously, in their own time, on their own computers and in their own homes.

This advice goes further than guidelines issued by the Public Service Commission and other departments, which do not explicitly tell staff to inform on each other…. as they erroneously believe that we still live in a democracy.

Commissioner of Freedom-of-Speech Bubbles, Timmy “Twat” Wilson (ex Liarbril and fellow traveller with “Coot’s-With-Queer-Ideas-from-a-Parallel-Universe”) said that this was just a robust demonstration of the natural strength of our noble historically bigotted individualism but that we all needed to be on the same page of the Horst Wessel song book.

(Copies still available… $5.00 / Foolscap sheet)

"Timmy Twat", style maker

Artists’ on Government grants will only be able to make “Noice-things,” taste-suitable for Reactionary Aspirational Bogans and the “Coot’s-With-Queer-Ideas-from-a-Parallel-Universe”, who are running the show for their unidentified backers….shhhh, democracy at sleep.

The Prime Miniature’s Chief Border Protection Sheriff, Scott “The Drone” Morrison, has Canute-like, been proudly trumpeting “the boats have stopped, the boats have stopped”…, except that it's the Patrol boats!  Seems they've developed serious structural cracks and most are now laid up as not fit to go to sea. His boss “Rabbutt-the-Hun” meanwhile, has been steely-jawed, double-clasp hand-shaking in a bandy legged, duck waddling manner around Asia and signing away Oz’s sovereignty to Korean big business. Not seeing the irony of this, “The Drone” Morrison went shopping for another Orange Life-boat as a get-a-way vehicle for Arfur “The Spiv” Sinodinas who is having trouble remembering why he only worked 2.5 hours for a zillion Sheckels and a share of the take from a well known “bent” pollie and his NSW mafioso.

In response to the IPCC report on Climate Change “Rabbutt-the-Hun” quoted Dorothea Mackellar’s 1907 poem “My Country”:,

“I love a Sunburnt Country …A Land of Sweeping Plains .. a land of Droughts and Flooding rains”…. Even Charlie Chaplin couldnt've written that script for that purpose!

Wonderful news: In the Tardis State, “Where-All-Goes-Backward” (Victoria). Independent Schools have now more than 60% more funding than their State counterparts. This means that for 40% of the school population the “Age of Entitlement” happily, is not over.  Those parents “Making-a-Hip-Pocket-Choice-to-Secure-Social-Standing” should be well pleased that the “…burden is being lifted…” by those less well able to afford the expensive but often dubious benefits of private education.

Federal Non-Environment Minister Greg “Ozone-Hole-Wiki” Hunt has decided not to make a ruling protecting the endangered southern brown Bandicoot because, A/ He’s the local member and, B/ if he upsets the developers who want to concrete the rare grassland habitat of the Bandicoot, he might well become a very endangered species, himself.

There was no comment from the parliamentary secretary for the environment, Simon “Mincer” Birmingham as to whether he would receive pro-rata of the Non-minister’s salary for bravely making an environmentally moronic decision that the Non-minister “Ozone-Hole-Wiki” hasn’t the “balls” to face.

John Stuart Mill once wrote that not all conservatives are stupid, but most people who are stupid are conservative.

(actually …scientifically proven… believe it or not… but then so is Climate Change.

What Crap! )

As the “Coot’s-With-Queer-Ideas-from-a-Parallel-Universe” (IPA) are much more than conservative it must follow that they are much, much more than stupid.

This (or something like it) is a new piece from their philosophic fantasist, Arrant-Alana-Dill:  Work is about dignity. Having a job is about dignity. Payment for work is crass socialism. Any job is better than no job. Payment for work is soooo C19th. Civilization is an aberrant concept in the modern commodity market. Self-respect like education, is only for those who can afford it ….. And he’s really paid to think this stuff up and is still allowed to deliver such tripe on public radio?

(I don’t write this stuff our governments do… and as much as I’d like to see the other side writing some of this script…. they are MIA),

Cheers Petals,

Shane

My Lords, Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to the Great Australian Circus of Democracy where all have according to the High Sheriff, George “Sneer” Brandis, “The-Right-to-be Bigots” and right-wing thought-bubble-tanks with charity status like “The-Coots-With-Queer-Ideas-From-a-Parallel-Universe” (who really wrote the18C script) are running the country for their unknown and faceless backers and pretend journalists and commentators like “Blot-On-The-Landscape” are free to write and spout whatever they wish.

My Lords, Ladies and Gentlemen, amidst much joyful celebration, the “Red-Tape-Repeal- Day” sideshow kicked off with the momentous proclamation that herewith e-mail shall henceforth be termed email and to much applause from Senator Cory “Bestiality” Bernardi’s paddles clapping together, was the order that Mules and Bullocks will no longer be used for defense….. or any other purpose. Unfortunately the Business Council didn’t see in these cost savings, measures sufficient for their needs and is asking for the repeal of all onerous taxes which impede growth of their personal wealth and that workers penalty rates, minimum pay rates, sick leave and annual leave be abolished to further assist in their primary aim.

My Lords, Ladies and Gentlemen, be upstanding for an announcement by the Duchess of Diplomacy, Julie “Death-Stare” Bishop. It is announced that there is no need for Australia to attend an international enquiry into war crimes in Sri Lanka as there is no possibility that the patrol boats we gave to Sri Lanka could possibly be used to harm human rights. And that no importance is attached to the fact that Sri Lankan Navy personnel are showing admirable free-market spirit in running the biggest of their country’s people smuggling business.

I have probably said before that the number of shots  taken during a performance often indicates a visceral response to its aesthetic and technical worth.

Similarly when doing the post process: you see somewhat more clearly how the performers responded in detail and you gain further insights into the idea of the work.

Perhaps it was the costumes or the groupings but I kept being reminded of Poussin

Wombat Droppings or Low, Down-Under Politics

Very, very interesting is the almost total lack of Liarbril objection/refutation to any number of severely critical articles in blogs various on this incompetent rabble of a government.... are their nostrils finally filling with the stench of a rotting body which was once a social entity or are they just shielding themselves from the searing glare of their own choice?

In an appointment (without interview) Tim “Twat” Wilson has been made a Commissioner for Human Rights by alleged Attorney General, George “Library Rorts” Brandis. What this “Coot-With-Queer-Ideas-from–a-Parallel –Universe (aka the IPA) knows about humans is yet to be ascertained, as do his qualifications but he was consoled by his friend for giving up not only his Liarbril Party but his IPA membership too.  

 It would look odd taking $300,000.00 a year in a job you vehemently argued should be abolished!

The free speech thingy matters little in the context of these Bolt "Dolt" types; there is no point in having them removed by a tsunami of reaction. Better to keep their ilk in place as a poignant reminder of how stupidly fallible paid apparatchiks can be.

http://theaimn.com/2013/12/19/the-abbott-form-of-social-engineering/

We are now to have Codes of Conduct for priests and asylum seekers… the first category indicates, how morally bereft Australians society has become and the latter, how intensely cruel and uncaring we are.

The Spirit of Xmas was evoked when Prime Miniature “Rabbott” heart-warmingly congratulated Holden workers on being “liberated from working” but declined to say when, economically, the country will be fully devastated and there will be liberation for all. 

What they are doing is  “Bully-Boy” Kennett (The Dorian Grey of the Tardis State “Where-all-Goes-Backward”) writ on a larger scale: obliterate the workforce to fragment the Unions, privatise everything within reach, allow the new bosses to introduce low wages and strip back penalty rates, introduce more draconian anti-demonstration legislation …as their hero Menzies once said “A stable economy is one where there are two workers outside the factory for every one inside.”

“I am absolutely determined to change... and we will change within 12 months." A statement ostensibly made regarding the adoption of overseas children but sounding more like one of “Rabbott’s” Freudian slips concerning his rabble’s plummeting poll ratings. A smiling photo op with a celeb or two and attempting a kindness for once that costs nothing whilst slashing and burning everything else:  pardon me for my cynicism.

It all comes down to what is "vision" and "Rabbott's" character is the controlling factor in that.   

Take that, as you will….

Then, if we look at the Corman's, Bernardi's, Ciobo's, Brough's, Pynes' Cash's, Brandis' and Abetz's et al, of this rabble, the vision "thing" is decidedly bleak and it will make no difference if "Rabbott" gets rolled in six months and "von Ribbentrop"Turnbull is voted office boy for the BCA & IPA, as the aforementioned rabble still sit there festering within the remnants of democracy.

One thing they do well though is to clear the "grey" areas... one is seeing with a simpler clarity.

“Rabbott” is prepared to spend $25,000,000.00 of taxpayers’ money in a vicious little political witch-hunt over the “Pink Batts” issue. Called a “Debacle” by Murdoch’s minions, this economic stimulation scheme saw 4 young male employees die from either eletrocution or Heat-Stroke when installing the Batts in ceilings. Blaming the Federal Government of the time for the failings of the employers or the State Occupational Health and Safety Authorities is an interesting move.

Apart from ignoring the 128 other workplace deaths in the past 12 months it also ignores the stimulus to the economy, the ongoing benefits of lower power usage and more energy efficient homes.

Perhaps we could have a Royal Commission into the 2 military deaths caused by “Little Johnnie” Howard’s foray into Iraq to look for what he said were “weapons of mass destruction” or perhaps one into politicians rorting their travel and electoral allowances or better, one into the role Alex “Fish-Nets-That-Batter” Downer played in the Timor Sea Oil and Gas negotiations with Woodside?

I have a feeling that this tactic by “Rabbott” might be over-reach. Ashby-Gate and Thommo-Gate are being found more and more spurious and having brought  Government ministers into the firing line, “Rabbott’ is lining his own side up for the inevitable and bloody pay-back.The Spirit of Xmas.

 

Pick the Prime Minister

Scott “The Drone” Morrison in deciding that Orwellian language alone is not sufficient for his “stand-up comedy act” has incorporated “Catch-22” into his repertoire. Refugees in the country (all Labor’s fault, of course) who co-habit to stretch their munificent $250.00 a week benefit whilst not being allowed to work; and who make too much noise, look different, speak a language other the Liarbril-ese or cook anything other than chops and three veg will be deported to Manus Island for re-education and more appropriate summer co-habitation in tents.
The Spirit of Xmas.

 It has not been announced if the rules of the The Augustine Cup cricket match at Lords of Anglican clergy vs Catholic priests from the Vatican are to be amended re: the Vatican side bowling a maiden over!
