I saw some protesters in Flagstaff Gardens wearing tents. Thankfully it never caught on as a fashion statement.

Why wouldn't it still be going - which it apparently still is...:D

There's only a couple of borderline posts IMO. We can still discuss things in a robust manner and as long as it doesn't get personal or descend into name calling, or gets political it is fine. Talking about hot political issues such as the boats and the carbon tax is fine as long as the politics of it are left out.:)

:confused: please explain how it would be possible to talk about hot political issues as long as politics is left out!
Have to be a side effect from last night :p

I think the idea is that if you don't take sides then everything is groovy. Unless you feel inclined to characterise entire sections of the population based on your own ignorance, which is also fine so long as it's not directed at an individual who is a member of this forum.

It's a utopian paradise up in this hizzle.

surely to hell, we can talk about current affairs without having it descend into party politics and personal attacks because some one dares to differ.

we used to be able too...
