For the record my opinion is that the ABC, Guardian & he like, is very firmly "to the left".

May I refer you to CA, post 846, Donald Trump, discuss. Please open the link and read it.

Why Corona is such a nasty disease and the stats lie. You can have zero symptoms but frosting of the lungs from Covi19 pneumonia. So you are one of the many with 'no symtpoms' but have lung problems and increasing I have seen articles refer to long term lung damage.

So for those that argue low mortality rate etc means the restrictions we have are an overreaction, this should be a warning that the need to limit it's spread is not all about death.

I see one protestor on the news last night in the US showing her hair roots and telling the reporter, in a whingy and entitled voice, that the ban should be lifted to allow her to get to the hair dresser. A particularly unhealthy looking middle aged lady. That country has some deep rooted problems.

Cheers

I saw that and immediately thought that it was the Russians again - you know that the KGB directly organised protests in the US during last election?

I do find it fascinating how our internal biases skew how we see things, and I'm including me in that!

Who would know. The USA is such a ripe target with so much low hanging fruit for China and Russia to pick away at. Buy truth is...they don't need outside influence to be a sick nation.

Have you read Turnbull's book? Interesting read.

It would be interesting to have a discussion about a book an ex PM has written , and his relationship with another ex PM and Newspaper magnate, but not here.
