They also banned adults from big social media who don't want to comply with what ever data harvesting / govt spying mandate that will be implemented.

Well the politicians who are in charge of record immigration / population growth, lax building and planning standards will not have to live in one of these new estates, so why would they give a fuck?

Fancy olive oil. Hell even regular stuff costs fancy prices these days.

Gourmet pickles, sauces etc. Not stuff that you find in supermarkets though.

Wide brimmed hat.

Damn I wish I had asked for one of these!

My guess is labor themselves would rather the electorate swung to liberal than a variety of independents / minors.

My hope is that more independents and minors get in. The majors only seem to look after the 1% when it comes to economic policy.

Can you please make a government internet ID, and connect that to your social media instead?

That way social media companies will know who you really are, and the govt will be able to know what social media accounts are yours. It's even better that way.

Yes! Another great point. I have a very high success rate with aldi self serve checkouts. Coles ones frequently have issues resulting in waiting for the attendant.

Another thing I like about aldi is it doesn't have inane music and ads blasting at you over a P.A. If I go there when it's not peak time it's nearly silent which makes shopping feel very peaceful and makes me want to spend longer in the place.

Also much faster to navigate than colesworth due to less aisles of stuff I mostly have no interest in.

I wish infinite growth on a finite planet wasn't somehow a forgone conclusion.

Locally, I don't think cities get better past a certain size.

Even if we get people living in apartments instead of suburban sprawl, it still makes for too many people putting demand on natural attractions, resources etc.

Besides, I don't see us shifting to apartments any time soon. The issue is apartments cost far too much per square metre to construct compared to suburban project homes.

As if the Liberals are actually going to reduce immigration though. Their policy has been mass immigration to please the owner class since John Howard.

Depends on the state. I don't think they vary by much though. In W.A. I paid 28.7 cents per kWh. Plus a daily supply charge of 102 cents per day.

Have also had a few hundred dollarbucks worth of credits this year from the state government.

Ha. Better from Labor? When it comes to digital rights they are terrible just like the liberal party.

Labor rubber stamped the libs meta data retention and secret software backdoors legislation.

This one is up there with the 2009 Krudd / Conroy clean feed.
