Sir Garfield Sobers, widely regarded as the greatest all-rounder in cricket history, passed away on July 17, 2026, at the age of 89. He Played for Barbados.

When I was a kid my Dad raised a few pigs as a side hustle. He used to buy 44 gallon drums of chocolates from Cadbury's - deformed, had fallen on the floor, etc. Pigs loved them. Us kids did too 😄 Not sure how much they cost but he was a tight arse so it would have been cheap.

He doesn't respect a free and fair vote anywhere IF a Socialist Government is elected. They supported Pinochet (mass murderer of his own People) in Chile even well before Trumps time. I don't think USA has Antitrust Laws any more. Making MONEY is ALL that Counts. No matter how many have to die. Winners are Grinners. Their Pentecostal (charismatic religion is designed for the greedy and ruthless. DOG wants you to be rich. (Like Hell, he/she/it does.) Nev

The Republicans wish he'd stop going on about the 2020 election because it's not helping their chances, but at the same time he's doing everything he can to rig the November election beforehand and scheming to disrupt the results if the Democrats look like winning. He's trying every trick in the book to assert his control over the States' ability to run their elections, but fortunately a large number of State governors, both Democrat and Republican are determined to keep him out of it and ensure their elections are run fairly. It's amazing how in Trump's world, elections are only free and fair when he and the Republicans win but rigged beyond recovery when they lose.

That's better than A cute angina. Nev

Speculation is Pointless when the situation is dire and worsening and needs rectification Trump didn't EXPECT to Win the first time. He would have been happy just to get the Publicity. THAT is on the record. USA under Trump and his Ideologues want to control the Worlds News and anything against HIS regime be attacked.. He seeks World Domination and CONTROL of Opinion and Information. He bounces all over the Place That's not a ploy. He Literally is Captain CHAOS. A would be DICTATOR in Rapid decline and therefore Doubly Dangerous because HE is Desperate. Time for the Republicans to collectively grow a Pair and do what should have been done four Years ago.Nev

The Relevant minister is considered the Person certain questions should be directed to, but often the opposition will direct their question to the PM when they think they have a "Gotcha" Moment, based on say a Newspaper article or what someone was supposed to have said somewhere, sometime and maybe in another context. It can be pretty hard to watch and/or listen to Nev

When Cadburys was sold to Mondelez the quality & taste went through the floor and they introduced horrible American flavours. I know in NZ people complained & stopped buying Cadburys which prompted an eventual reversal & return of original flavours though the chocolate quality is still not as good as it was & most likely has more sugar in it. Mondelez also closed the NZ factory & the only site left in Oceania is in Tassie. Hopefully they won't close that & get stuff made in China like everyone else.

That may well have been the case but if he had won he would have been hell bent on pushing for a constitutional amendment to allow him a 3rd term & if that happened the US may have already been at war with multiple states or more likely with itself. That is almost happening now. In a recent Yougov poll 28% of voters believe the 2020 election was rigged and 2/3 of MGAG voters alreay believed the 2020 vote was rigged even before Trumps address. https://www.abc.net.au/news/2026-07-17/donald-trump-national-address-ominous-sign-for-midterm-elections/106928662

The report I saw said that actually China was barracking for Biden, and that it was Putin who was pumping for Trump. I think that it makes more sense that China would prefer the Democrats over Trump. I suspect that they had a good idea of what Trump could have done. I wonder if we would be in abetter place now if Trump had won in 2020. Ther would not have been the four years in which to sit on the sidelines and prepare the Republican manifesto, and by now we would have been rid of him. Most likely there would be no Iranian war.

"Leader" is a word with a number of different meanings which are influenced by context. A leader is a person with leadership abilities. Leadership, is defined as the ability of an individual, group, or organization to influence, or guide other individuals, teams, or organizations. How one becomes a leader often depends on what needs to be led. I think we are lucky in our political system in that our Party leaders are, for the most part, chosen by the group they lead. That allows us to replace underperforming leaders during the course of a parloiamentary period, and not have to wait for General Elections as is necessary in the USA. Our Prime Ministers and Premiers are the spokespersons for the government when talking about matters in general. What I would like to see at a press conference is for the leader to introduce the topic for the press conference and then introduce the relevant Minister who would then go into the details. I see the leader in such a circumstance as being like a Master of Ceremonies who is there to introduce the acts.

Trumps address to the nation is the latest example of his desperation. He now says there is evidence China stole the data of 220 million voters and that they meddled in the 2020 election he lost but really won despite multiple investigations and lawsuits all finding him 100% wrong. The problem is that a lot of his MAGA nutters believe him and this is the first step towards declaring a national emergency to prevent the mid term elections from being held. https://www.stuff.co.nz/world-news/361007861/trump-lays-groundwork-emergency-declaration-ahead-midterms

Australia The Good.... Good to see you are enjoying your visit. We are enjoying the great outdoors in Warambungles. A but chilly under canvas but it's one of those places I wanted to since .....

Pretty good makeup. He's got a chin vagina and all.

That's my excuse too. I'm really much younger than I look.

It's called makeup

He’s older than I thought.

He wasn't born with a silver spoon in his Mouth. He was selected by the Party and took them to one of the Most significant wins for ages. He has Plenty of well qualified and People to select for Ministerial Positions. .He's not a One Man Band. News all over the world acknowledge we are doing a Good job here but you won't get that Impression from and Newscorpse Monopoly or SKY. They want to be Pauline's Puppet-master because SHE will do their Bidding. She's for SALE. Nev
