    It was worded wrong.
    If the intent is to lock up drug pushing bikies good.
    If innocents are inconvenienced but allowed to go on with there business
    fine by me

  5. Sorry Joe,
    Domestic issues now attended to for the moment. I should have said, anecdotal evidence, very close to home, rather than proof.

  6. Joe,
    The real problem is, as Ms Adventure said, the guilt by association bit. The existing provisions under all Australian criminal legislation is more than adequate to deal with any bikies who deal in drugs. The concern with the new legislation is the way it could be extended to any group that the government of the day wishes to target. Maybe even, way down the track, members of the LNP could be so targeted.

    I really don’t think the police or courts are going to go after a group of scooter riding oldies.
    That is just the fear warmongering that that bikie lawyers are putting out

  9. If the Newman or any other Government were to be really dinkum in ridding the streets of bikie gangs. They would be going after those who help them import, distribute and launder the proceeds.

    It defies logic that the gangs could carve up this entire country into drug selling franchises without the ongoing help of the big end of town. The growing, manufacturing, importing and distribution of drugs is a sophisticated operation. How sophisticated would the laundering of millions upon millions of dollars in cash money have to be? It couldn’t be done without high level knowledge or co-operation. A blind eye here, a turned back there, a nod, a wink and it’s business as usual.

    IMO, this war on bikies is nothing other than the big end of town negotiating a new pay structure with whichever globalised gang happens to win the current turf war. As soon as the deal is struck, gangs with colours will be seen as roughnuts, and petty crims though pretty benign.

    This has never been about public order and safety. But very much about carving up a lucrative pie.

    The bikie gangs these days are a world wide organisations. Probably better organised and legally in tune then the mafia ever was.
    I think it is about public safety and orde,r and if it were a labor government doing this most here would be agreeing with them.
    Bashing Newman for what most qldrs agree with isn,t going to get labor re-elected any-time soon.

  12. I don’t think Campbell Newman is doing it to get rid of the Bikie Mob: I think he he is doing for populist purposes.

    The catch-all legislation is very reminiscent of Joh’s days and, judging by the attitude of the Police Commissioner, I think it will be ill used.

  17. Oh dear – didn’t anyone tell The Idiot that you don’t maul members of the royal family? Here he is with Prince Charles, yesterday. Look where his left hand is.

  18. What has happened to Abbott’s face? He’s wearing glasses, which accounts for some of the oddness because there are weird shadows, but honestly, he looks like his face has melted.

  19. I have a book signed by Jack Pizzey. It seems, in my year of the Scholarship examination, I did best for a NESB1 in English.

  22. The left-hand clutch is extraordinary. Anyone know about body-language?

    I think The Idiot is incapable of relaxing. I watched the end of the golf today and, amongst all the handshakes that the golfers and their caddies perform, I didn’t see a single case of the Abbott Arm-wrestle.

  26. OK – the left hand on the arm thing – not good. For the illustrations use the link to the full article.
    When you use the two-handed handshake, the left hand conveys two points worth noting. Firstly, it reveals the intensity of feeling you’re demonstrating towards the receiver. The higher up the arm your left hand goes, as shown in Figure 9-15, the deeper the level of intimacy you want to show.
    This is a complex movement in that the gesture shows both the degree of connection you have with the receiver as well as the amount of control you’re exerting. The second point is that your left hand invades the receiver’s personal space. Unless the receiver has positive feelings for you, this gesture can lead to feelings of suspicion and mistrust. If in doubt, don’t use it; especially on your boss.

    So The Idiot has invaded HRH’s personal space and made him feel suspicious and mistrustful. As HRH is The Idiot’s boss this is not a good thing to do.

  27. Mr Abbott has downplayed concerns the Sri Lankan government may have engaged in war crimes at the end of the country’s ethnic war, and talked up the country’s economic potential.

    That is in contrast to British prime minister David Cameron, who yesterday infuriated the Sri Lankan government by stepping up pressure for it to address its human rights issues.

    The Idiot never fails to live up to his name. Even David thinks he is a dickhead.

    Good to see Tone giving money to stop the boats rather than to the deprived in Sri Lanka.

  29. I have been known to clasp one hand with both of mine. If anyone tried the Abbott Arm-wrestle on me they would get the right royal message.

    Planning Minister Brad Hazzard rewards loyal mates with jobs
    Andrew Clennell The Daily Telegraph November 16, 2013 12:00AM

    PLANNING Minister Brad Hazzard appointed a former Liberal Party vice-president, Carolyn Fletcher, and a separate Liberal donor, Peter Lowry, to the Board of Sydney Harbour Foreshore Authority – part-time jobs worth $33,945 a year.

    He also appointed a former solicitor at a firm where he did consulting work, Bartier Perry, to the chair of a joint regional planning panel – on a wage of $61,578 a year.

    Revelations about Mr Hazzard’s appointments follow several “jobs for the boys” decisions by former finance minister Greg Pearce, including the appointment of his wife’s boss to Sydney Water – which led Premier Barry O’Farrell to sack Mr Pearce after he failed to declare the conflict of interest to him.

    Cameron finally challenges the Tory climate change deniers
    The PM says “scientists are giving us a very certain message” but will his policies match his rhetoric?
    By George Eaton Published 16 November 2013 10:18

    Since telling the public to “vote blue, go green” in 2006 and pledging in opposition to lead “the greenest government ever”, David Cameron has had little to say on climate change. In the three and a half years since he entered No. 10, the PM hasn’t made a single speech on the subject, nor attended a UN environmental summit. Emboldened by his silence, Tory climate change deniers have rushed to fill the void. Energy minister Michael Fallon has described climate change as “theology” and Environment Secretary Owen Paterson has declared: “People get very emotional about this subject and I think we should just accept that the climate has been changing for centuries.” [The 12 warmest years have all come in the last 15.] Tory MPs have put forward a bill to abolish the Department for Energy and Climate Change, and George Osborne has repeatedly posited a false choice between growth and green energy investment.

    But confronted by the devastation wrought by Typhoon Haiyan, which some attribute to climate change, Cameron has found his voice again. He told reporters during his trip to Sri Lanka:

  32. Leone,
    Well, cutting a deal with Dr Mugabe could be attractive to Our Dear PMBO – after all, most of the people wanting out of Zimbabwe are white Anglos of the appropriate faith.

    I doubt if he’d have much concern for Christian Syrians, howerer – they’re the Wrong Colour.

    Speaking of colour, how are those kittens?

  33. The kittens have gone. The mum came and took them away. As I thought, she’s one of the feral tribe, very timid, runs away when she sees me. I recognised her when I saw her close up. I suspect the kittens will be very feral too. There won’t be much hope of trapping or catching them I’m afraid.

  35. If they want to hang around Auntie Leone will be happy to give them the odd snack, but that’s as far as the friendship will go.

  36. This little black duck,

    I have been known to clasp one hand with both of mine. If anyone tried the Abbott Arm-wrestle on me they would get the right royal message.

    Would you send it on the Royal Telephone.

  37. I bet David Cameron was suitably impressed when the Rabbott announced him as his newest, bestest, and oldest friend.

  39. I wonder, does somebody write these lines for him, or does he think them up all by himself?

  40. The feral cats need to be trapped, neutered, vaccinated and let go again. That will stabiise the population and prevent un-neutered cats from moving into the area. There was a population of cats living in the rocks by the sea in here in Adelaide, for years. A local group looked after them, neutered, vaccinated and generally kept an eye on them. After a few residents complained. the council trapped the cats despite earnest appeals. I don’t know what they did with the cats.

    Of course, after the Rock Cats were moved feral cats moved in, the population soared, sick cats, fighting cats. kittens everywhere. Total clusterfeck.

  42. Back from watching ‘Up’, a kids movie. Such a nice feelgood story which is just what I needed.
    Goodnight Fiona

  45. Comment back there about S.A’s attempt to introduce “anti bikie laws”.
    My recollection is that, predictably, the media played it a bit differently to accommodate a Labor government. Now the prevailing attitude is “bloody good job too!”. But in S.A. back then it wasn’t like that. The whole idea was presented as pretty drastic, civil libertarians were afforded a lot more space than they are now. The media kept us up to date on the progress of the legal challenges with the odd sympathetic interview with club members. Protest runs were enthusiastically covered, those Hogs rumbling down the street made good viewing, oh, & incidentally, fuck you, Rann. Great was the rejoicing when the laws were overturned with suitably negative commentary directed at the government. Just goes to show, we can all be of use to conservative politics. Whether we like it or know it or not.

  46. HoJo getting some stick on Twitter

  49. Good morning Dawn Patrollers.
    Abbott feeds the chooks.

    This will not be at all pretty by the time it gets sorted.
    http://www.smh.com.au/federal-politics/political-news/record-boat-arrivals-lead-to-lengthier-detention-times-20131116-2xnl9.html
    And the culture of self-interested secrecy continues.
