  1. Unions have thier place but politacal parties shoud not be involved with them and there are thugs in unions
  2. Yes Nev, i come from a Welsh background who mostlty were labour and union, my father always voted conservative in UK a war veteran he was dismayed how labour treated them after WW11, till his dying day was a staunch conservative ,me i am liberal in my thinking and as you say lean that way , but labour has only ever made monumental stuff ups for us, pollies of all colours say that they will be for the country and people BUT always toe the party line, all political parties are this way and the loony greens would always be lefties,i have little faith in ANY pollies ( i have worked for one years ago, ) they start out fresh and with vigour but soon become pigs at the trough
  3. You think there is decency in politics, gillard lied, rudd the backstabber,tony too conservative,,turnbull to much money to understand ,shorten the union thug,keating the smarmy bxxtard,hawke the union thug,the list is endless,at least little johnny kept us in the black, pollies are mostly in it for the gravy and large super , and the greens loony tunes
  4. rudd just wanted to get on the gravy train, he cannot get a job because he is a career pollie and that means he useless for anything in the real world
  5. For sale Avmap EK4 new never used in aircraft comes with mount for dash
  6. Don , there are always negative people in every club,association,your damned if you do and damned if you dont , the vote was a resounding YES if people dont like it put your money where your mouth is and have a go or move on, like you Don i gave 7 years as the President of a very large soccer club the amount of time and my own money put in was enormous ,the club became a financial success and with 24 teams from under 7s to seniors was very successful,but lots of negative people ,but they would not put their hand up for anything you can please people but not all the time , thanks Don for your efforts Cheers gareth

  18. But the Serbs did not Export there terrorism to other countries around the world ,Iraq,Russia,Belgium,France ,England,Australia,Indonesia,Spain,Somalia,Sudan,USA,Israel,Tunisia,Yemen,plus other countries have all had MUSLIM terrorists murder and butcher innocents,they butcher more of their own Muslim brothers and sisters than westerners, a few of the countries mentioned had their own nut job massacres ,but these people were lone nut jobs ,not affiliated to MUSLIM religion, the debate about countries right or wrong to wage war in the Arab states will rage on, Western countries do not send people with suicide vests to kill civilians ,and i know the debate will go on about us(westerners) invading Iraq , we will never learn why the reasons ,we are only now learning about WW11 and Korea,Vietnam, and yes what the Serbs did was terrible to local Muslim population,not condoning that. The Serbs have a lot answer for as did the Germans in WW11 ,but would we have been any different if we were under the despots rule,we would have turned a blind eye methinks,the majority of Muslims in this country are just trying to get by as best they can, ,but they do have a lot more brooding nut jobs than the rest of the populace,i for one have no problem with multiculturism, but AUSTRALIA first we must remain a secular country no religion must dominate ,CofE,Catholic,Islam,Buddism or any of the others . cheers gareth
