@TracyWesterman
The Sanewashing of Hanson Is at Its Peak.
This is how Trump came to power: platform the lies, skip the follow-up, let the headlines call it “proving her critics wrong.”
We are all watching it happen in real time.
At the National Press Club, Pauline Hanson said the following. Not one claim was challenged by the so called journalists in attendance and she continues to be unchallenged on the facts in every interview she sits.
-1. Unlike the Prime Minister, I welcome scrutiny.” Hypocritical. In the same speech she announced she refuses ABC interviews, will scrap the SBS, & will make the ABC subscription-only. The event allowed 2 hours; standard format gives 25–30 mins for the address. She spoke for 50-halving the time left for questions. When Guardian journalist Sarah Martin used that remaining time to ask about her daughter's $150,000 taxpayer-funded advisor role, Hanson called her “a trashy journalist” and banned her from all future press conferences.
• “Babies are aborted the day before birth.” Fabricated. Late-term abortion is highly restricted, requires medical approval, and occurs only in genuine medical emergencies.
• “Interest rates are heading towards 10%.” False. RBA cash rate: 4.35%. Forecast to fall, not rise.
• “There’s no gender pay gap — just women taking time off.” False. WGEA confirms the gap exists at equal hours, equal roles, regardless of career breaks.
• “$30B a year on Indigenous programs.” False. Only 18% (~$5.6B) is Indigenous-specific. The rest is the Indigenous share of mainstream services every Australian uses.
• Transgender people were compared to “militant Islam.” False and dangerous. ABS data: transgender and gender-diverse Australians make up 1% of the pop’n. There’s no body of research showing transgender ppl commit crime at elevated rates-in fact it shows transgender people are dramatically more likely to be victims of violence— assault, sexual violence, and homicide rates against trans people are well above general population rates in most studies (US, UK, and Aust data all show this pattern)
• “23% of Australians can’t speak English.” False. That 23% speak another language at home — most are bilingual. Limited English proficiency: just 3.2%.
• “The CEFC has had $200 billion.” False by a factor of six. Actual legislated capacity: $33 billion.
• “I care about the homeless and hungry.” Hypocritical. In the same speech, she backed cuts to Indigenous-specific funding — despite Aboriginal homelessness running up to 10 times higher than the non-Indigenous rate.
• $90 billion in cuts, no plan. ~$35 billion of it remains unaccounted for. No modelling.
• “I support worker rights.” False. Voted against minimum wage increases, penalty rates, criminalising wage theft, casual conversion rights, same job same pay, and the right to disconnect. Took a $100,000 pay rise while voting against a tax break for low-paid workers
• Called Australian workers “lazy.” She has attended just 12% of Senate estimates since 2016 & 53% of parliamentary votes. Paid over $200k a year
• Labor have let immigration get out of control.” False. Net overseas migration has fallen every year since the post-COVID peak in 2022-23 — 538,000 → 446,000 → 306,000 in 2024-25. She also recycled a 26-year-old ABS pop’n projection as a fresh “next 50 years” forecast

Said: This beautiful country belongs to all Australians born here and those who have joined us”- in her opening line; then spent the next 50 minutes demanding a monocultural society, comparing transgender Australians to militant Islam, inflating migration and language figures, denying the gender pay gap, and repeating the debunked $30 billion Indigenous funding myth. Welcomed everyone in the first sentence. Spent the rest of the speech defining most of them out — and offered no plan to fix anything she raised, only $90 billion in cuts.
Not one follow-up question. No source data on a single figure in the entire speech. This is what unchallenged looks like.

Back in the sixties we moved to inner Newcastle - New Lambton, to be precise - and the house next door was - wait for it.... - bright lolly pink!! Turned out to be an old Pommie couple (Mr and Ms Moss) and lovely people. She was so typically English, and he too. The back yard was 90% chrysanthemums, while the garage was chock full of budgies. He was a breeder. Their old white cockatoo had their English accent and learned to mimic her. At random times it screeched "Harry, coom an 'uv a coopa tae" by cause of which he spent many unnecessary trips to the house.

"He has done serious damage to many aspects of American government and politics that will be difficult and costly and, in some cases, impossible to undo.

"The mass firing of dedicated and experienced civil servants has made government dumber and weaker and will make it harder to attract talented replacements even if the next administration wants to make it smarter and more effective.

"The damage to scientific and medical research, the environment, relations with allies and trading partners, disaster preparedness, consumer safety, higher education, military leadership, civil rights, etc. will take years to repair even in cases where that is possible."

...Despite the fact Bowen has been holding daily news conference briefings updating on fuel availability, and has often been joined by Albanese in spelling out initiatives to address fuel security, the Coalition accuses the government of a lack of “transparency”. It’s a favourite theme of Angus Taylor’s. One Labor insider believes Taylor is widely missing the mark. His critique is “waffle for I don’t know”.

My second choice is the sourdough pizza bases. They're at least thickish, and work well. The 'spicy potato' topping is just potato and sweet potato mashed to very lumpy with any old assortment of spices thrown in, plus whatever makes it slightly hot (chili flakes maybe). Then some cheese on top, or even plus a layer of slices under the potato, as it's rather moist. So simple but delish.

I'm in the category of never having received an inheritance, despite many 'comfortable' relatives. My parents, however, received several. Including a beautiful brick and slate house at Eastwood in Sydney. They blew it all on overseas holidays. Yet I can't begrudge them. They lived through the depression and the angst of WW2, then battled to old age in small business that was far from lucrative, including being bankrupted by a contracting arsehole.

Still, life has been both good and easy for me as a result of their struggle. (Chapter 2 of my life story tomorrow 😀 )

I dislike the thin crust bases, and it's so hard to find a thick one. Not into the trouble of making my own dough, as I'm not that great a pizza fan. Probably because the commercial ones are so gross. However, taking my cue from the local Turkish pide/pida shop, my fav topping is spicy potato with cheese melt. And lucky to find frozen Papa Giuseppe's rising crust, when it's on special. Nice and thick and bready 🙂

Iran destroyed the undestroyable A-10 tank killer today.

Weapon enthusiasts and american military nuts have been bragging about A-10 having a perfect score against enemy targets in the entire life of it sine mid 1970s. Only a handful of them have ever been damaged to the point that they crashed.

And during their first operation in Iran, one got hit so badly, it crashed into the Persian Gulf

The first encounter of US military with Iranian troops (and ordinary citizens) was a clear shock and hopefully a lesson to the Americans that Iran and Iranians are not like anyone they have ever fought against.

Even those who hate and despise the regime, will unite and fight to death against any invading army.

Specially those who start the conflict by unapologetically murdered almost 200 innocent school children.

Our wonderful old kelpie cocker cross looked miserable but ran around the place normally. One day she had terrible runs, took to vet who declared massive cancer in tummy. Agreed to put her down on the spot. She was in extreme silent doggy pain.

Only when she slipped away did the tears flow, catching me by surprise, struck by what a history the two of us had enjoyed. I can understand them, but...

Here's the poor thing around that time.

Well, there is Aldi. But they're in my bad books for erratic stock (those useless bloody triple-packs with the one I want always gone), poor range of goods, and mostly for checking my knapsack, pockets, even making me take of my shoes for inspection at the checkout. Got jack of that real quick.

Gripe of the Day
-------------------------------
ColesWorths ~ So I signed up for Woolworths home delivery when I noticed they had lots of $2 delivery slots like Coles. Previously I'd only seen $15, which is a bit steep. Went to place order yesterday and.... all the $2 slots had magically become $15. What, do they only have one per day, and first pensioner in is best dressed?

So placed order with Coles with $2 delivery, which is easy to get.

Today went online to add potatoes. Noticed the warning that any special ordered would not be specials in the modified order if they'd come off, err, being special.

ALL the specials I'd ordered yesterday were full price. ALL the things I'd wanted yesterday but skipped due to full price were, yes, on special. Even grapes. Yesterday reds were cheap, today it's whites (so I swapped).

Talk about whack-a-mole 😶 🙂

Gripe of the day:

The NSW Wallopers send urgent SMS to all and sundry with a link to see a photo of the offender/victim/hapless missing sod.

BUT it's a link to their Facebook page so I have to log in to see this incredibly important wallopers' news and see a photo. So, only people with Facebook accounts will be able to assist them. Is that some sort of NSW Police policy?

Does their web developer think Facebook IS the Internet??

This'll be an interesting bunfight. Newy might be a #Labor stronghold, but they're unforgiving of Labor dickheads, especially if NSW premier. So much so that we recently threw out a Labor council and elected a Greens lord mayor.

Of course, #NewsCorpse fanning the flames of division as always.

Godammit. Just when I was ok with Covid, flu, RSV and shingles, I'm reminded that measles is really infectious both airborne and surface. So I've UNrelaxed my masking choices.

And wtf??? I had completely forgotten this: "Only about one-fifth of adults 50 years and older are up to date with the whooping cough vaccine. This means they have had a booster within the last ten years."

2026-01-26T20:51:13Z

Trump Administration announces a proposed policy for travellers to the U.S.

All visitors must submit ‘their social media from the last 5 years’

‘telephone numbers used in the last five years’

‘email addresses used in the last ten years’

‘family number telephone numbers (sic) used in the last five years’

biometrics – face, fingerprint, DNA, and iris
business telephone numbers used in the last five years

business email addresses used in the last ten years.

The ‘CBP Home’ mobile app will be used by people to provide biometric proof of their departure, to ‘close the information gap’. The app will disclose the user’s location once they have left the U.S. and run a liveness detection on the selfie photo.
