    I hope your days away are productive, C.L.

    Here’s another Belloc –

    We sit by and watch the barbarian. We tolerate him in the long stretches of peace, we are not afraid. We are tickled by his irreverence; his comic inversion of our old certitudes and our fixed creed refreshes us; we laugh. But as we laugh we are watched by large and awful faces from beyond, and on these faces there are no smiles.

    For someone with such a light touch, he knew life was a serious business.

    Some light comedy.

    Tan… [ahem]… Professor Tan Grant has ditched the GayBC (so long tan) and has found employment heading Monash Puniversity’s “Centre to Rebuild Media Integrity”.

    I don’t know if this the appropriate thread but Ms nilligan is wrong.
    Men playing football see other men in the locker room, what their sexual attractions are only part of their identity, not the whole, and it is nobody’s business but their own.
    Nilligan is just a gossip and interfering busybody who should myob.

    Admitting that the show you fronted for years has no integrity, doesn’t somehow magically erase your time there and make you a paragon of virtuous integrity.

    There’s no openly gay player in the men’s AFL. The silence is deafening

    Nilligan is an outsider she has no idea if any players are openly gay. I think she means there is no players who flaunt their sexuality to the public and the media in the belief that a football players sexual preference is relevant. Its only in the heads of dumb progressives that sexuality defines someone.

    On Four Corners next week … Is the AFL transphobic having no trans players.

    Unfortunately for Milligan, she was viewed with suspicion and forced to claim she isn’t “that kind of journalist”. What kind is she?

    People are fed up with these mini-crusaders; bustling busybodies.
    Good to see her described as “an outsider”.

    Anita Heiss has said that if the voice referendum is defeated, “we’ll have Buckley’s chance of getting a treaty up in the near future.”

    Tell your family and friends!

    Who will be the first one to ask them for a loan of some brown sugar, once the doors open?

    Buccaneer, my first thought was Lin Biao. Such a messy way to get rid of troublesome monks, taking out the whole crew and passenger manifest. No frigging class. BBC is hardly trustable, the article is full of embedded lies, the core is trueish, but this don’t mean Russia will surrender overnight.

    They might not get Their Voice up, but they will compensate themselves with total censorship control of “truth”.

    Good point!

    Anyway, insofar as it matters… I’m back.
