The death of a NZ woman who fell from a balcony while on a Tinder date with a creep is being heard in a QLD court. She was drunk and high and allegedly belligerent when the creep locked her on a balcony of his high rise apartment. It is natural to focus on the prurient detail. But the salient one is that he locked her on the balcony of his home when she was drunk and, in his defence testimony, acting irrationally. And she acted irrationally and died. I don't care that he is addicted to Tinder sex. I don't judge him for that. I am concerned at his depraved indifference to the welfare of someone in his home. Nothing I have heard of this guy leads me to want him to be free.
Meanwhile NSW has arrested two suspected of planning jihad with rifle bayonets. They were called 'brothers' by a hate preacher who has done time in a super max prison. One has to be cautious not to link the two alleged extremists with Islam they allegedly follow. The truth is we need the Islamic community to deny all three claims of faith. I love God, and were I to attempt something similar, I would want my church to disown me.
I am running on a secular platform because I want everyone to prosper. I oppose the almost religious fervour of environmentalists, but I like sound ideas that environmentalists might have. There are places in Dandenong where wind breaks, like trees, would be very good. Dandenong Council would not need WaterSeer, but a product which extracts water from the air and requires no power would be useful for some residents. It apparently can extract 37 litres a day and is scalable. They would be very useful in humid areas. The tiles outside Dandenong Plaza are beginning to be trip hazards. Whomever s in charge of the maintenance needs to maintain it.
In NSW, Premier Mike Baird has adjusted hours for sale of alcohol, extending it from 10pm to 12pm. Press are calling it an embarrassing back flip. Maybe the press has had too much sauce?
I suggest Red Gum ward vote for David Daniel Ball. And, after asking your local councillor about their views on Trump, Same Sex Marriage and Greyhounds, try and find out what it is they will do to make garbage collection cheaper and more efficient. Ask how they will make business more profitable. Ask what they will do to help address crime. Ask what they will do to improve public transport issues locally.

Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bells swing and jingle bells ring
Snowin' and blowin' up bushels of fun
Now the jingle hop has begun
Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bells chime in jingle bell time
Dancin' and prancin' in Jingle Bell Square
In the frosty air
What a bright time, it's the right time
To rock the night away
Jingle bell time is a swell time
To go glidin' in a one-horse sleigh
Giddy-up jingle horse, pick up your feet
Jingle around the clock
Mix and a-mingle in the jinglin' feet
That's the jingle bell rock
Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bell chime in jingle bell time
Dancin' and prancin' in Jingle Bell Square
In the frosty air
What a bright time, it's the right time
To rock the night away
Jingle bell time is a swell time
To go glidin' in a one-horse sleigh
Giddy-up jingle horse, pick up your feet
Jingle around the clock
Mix and a-mingle in the jinglin' feet
That's the jingle bell
That's the jingle bell
That's the jingle...

The useful idiot that is RINO Romney is wrong about the mother of our child, USA. She is not virginal. When the patriot Ashli Babbitt was killed during a largely peaceful demonstration at the Capitol, she was not killed because President Trump incited violence or lied about election fraud. She was there because she was standing up for an opportunity the founding fathers promised was her free right. And she was killed because a Cabal has stolen the 2020 election and Georgia senate run offs and that Cabal desperately needs to protect itself. And by killing her, the Cabal has prevented President Trump from presenting his case before the legislature, as he had been allowed by constitution. Biden is now President Elect. But Biden did not get the votes he claims, and will not have the support such a turnout would endow.
The awful situation of President Elect Biden for USA, with senate in tow, cannot be understated. Just as with 911, terrorists around the world are cheering. It is trite to say there will be no justice, as there has been ...
