In addition to Jerry's link, read this link which contains the letter from the Nationals. https://www.skynews.com.au/australia-news/politics/leaked-letter-reveals-nationals-threatened-liberals-with-coalition-split-over-senator-jacinta-nampijinpa-prices-defection/news-story/1f1c6e8d8c4e9c04e2f0f1eff1d356cd

It appears that the split in the Coalition started before the election when Jacinta Price defected from the Nats to Liberals. This left the Nats with less than 5 senators, and therefore they did not qualify as a party, losing a lot of perks. A letter was sent to try and find a solution without success.

I got a text from my brother to say he saw a report that the Donald Trump library had burnt down, and both books had been destroyed. In an unfortunate twist, Donald had not finished colouring in the second one.

A couple having marital problems went to see their pastor. He said "You'll have to get a divorce and split eveything equally." The wife said, "The $4,000 I've skrimped to save?" :Yes," said the pastor "$2,000 each." "What about the furniture I bought?" asked the wife. "You'll have to share that equally, too." said the pastor. "What about our 3 children, how do we split them between us?" The pastor thought for s couple of minutes, then said, "Keep living together until you have a fourth child, then you get two each." The wife said. "That would never work. We wouldn't have these three if I had relied on him."|

Julie Andrews Turning 89 - this is hysterical! To commemorate her birthday , actress/vocalist, Julie Andrews made a special appearance at Manhattan's Radio City Music Hall for the benefit of the AARP. One of the musical numbers she performed was 'My Favorite Things' from the legendary movie 'Sound Of Music'. Here are the lyrics she used: (Sing It!) - If you sing it, its especially hysterical!!! ) Botox and nose drops and needles for knitting, Walkers and handrails and new dental fittings, Bundles of magazines tied up in string, These are a few of my favorite things. Cadillacs and cataracts, hearing aids and glasses, Polident and Fixodent and false teeth in glasses, Pacemakers, golf carts and porches with swings, These are a few of my favorite things. When the pipes leak, When the bones creak, When the knees go bad, I simply remember my favorite things, And then I don't feel so bad. Hot tea and crumpets and corn pads for bunions, No spicy hot food or food cooked with onions, Bathrobes and heating pads and hot meals they bring, These are a few of my favorite things. Back pain, confused brains and no need for sinnin', Thin bones and fractures and hair that is thinnin', And we won't mention our short shrunken frames, When we remember our favorite things. When the joints ache, When the hips break, When the eyes grow dim, Then I remember the great life I've had, And then I don't feel so bad

In the 1960's I was a teller with the Commercial Bank of Australia Ltd. At one branch I was posted to, one of the customers was a licenced grocery store. One Christmas they gave me a bottle of Cutty Sark whiskey. It sat in a cupboard for about 5 years until finally I gave it to my brother in law as a Christmas gift.

Post by Feminist News · I was on my morning walk when the notifications chirped in my pocket, interrupting the beautiful songs of nearby birds, "Elon Musk to step back from DOGE"; another headline read, "Musk to scale back political donations"; two more from Politico, "Why has Elon Musk disappeared from the spotlight?" and "Musk fades into the background" Nonsense. Bullshit. Hogwash. Elon Musk and DOGE are more actively involved in the government than ever and he's also still benefiting from his government connections. Musk's presence during Trump's Middle East trip was intended to serve mostly as a kickback for his gargantuan donation to Trump's 2024 campaign. And as we'll see, Elon cleaned up with the Saudi and Qatari royalty. It's important to acknowledge that Elon and his DOGE accomplices have already caused immense, likely permanent, damage to the underpinnings of our government and society—the most essential federal workers who staff the institutions and services we depend on, from water quality, food inspection, cancer researchers, air traffic controllers, Park Rangers, teachers and IEP instructors, the people at the IRS who audit corporate tax cheats. It's essential to recognize that DOGE's destruction is not diminishing—it is accelerating. DOGE is expected to double its headcount in the coming weeks and hire 100 more of Elon's twenty-something-year-old associates drawn from his various private companies. I don't have space here to review all the damage DOGE has done, but one recently reported story shows how DOGE disabled the Social Security phone system, claiming there was 40% fraud. When an independent analysis concluded the real number was closer to .0002%, the DOGE boys moved along and retreated from their efforts. In another incident, Elon's former employees hacked into the U.S. Department of Labor and transferred a trove of documents onto private servers. Elon's personnel didn't have the legal right to access, much less steal, the troves of data concerning Labor Department violations and disputes of Elon's own companies. What you have in this case alone is outright felonious hacking of the US government, and any Democrat worth their spittle will put prosecuting Elon Musk at the top of their agenda. That House Speaker Hakeem Jeffries and Senate leader Chuck Schumer haven't began legal proceedings against Musk is yet another indication of their totally failed and tepid leadership and refusal to confront the fascist moment. We see clearly Elon is more involved than ever. He just no longer wants credit. He's no longer dancing around with a fake chainsaw. It's the same exact operation as before, just a different brand. Further proof that Elon is more involved in the Trump White House was demonstrated on his recent trip to the Middle East, where Musk was treated more as the leader of the free world than Trump. Photo after photo confirms this. You can see the Saudi sheiks bowing to Elon and ushering him around, lavishing billions upon him every time he sat down in front of an audience or reporters. To be sure, Trump and his dopey sons got some meaty crypto crumbs, but they were side portions compared to Elon's haul. Let us review the slurry of payola kickbacks: Musk's company SpaceX secured approval to provide its Starlink satellite internet to Saudi Arabia; In Abu Dhabi, Musk’s other company Neuralink announced a deal; SpaceX is closing a deal to provide internet service to Emirates Airlines; Musk's other enterprise, The Boring Company, inked an agreement with Dubai’s transit authority; SpaceX inked a deal with South Africa ahead of Trump's upcoming trip; In arguably the biggest prize, Musk's xAI secured undisclosed sums worth an estimated tens of billions, with the Middle Eastern investors promising more in the near future. Following in the footsteps of his partner in crime, Elon even secured the bag for his whole family. His mother Maye, recently accompanied her son to a conference in Dubai. Elon's brother Kimball announced agreements with Qatar and Abu Dhabi. Elon's father, Errol, with whom he has a fractured and fraught relationship, is busy inking deals with the Emirates from Gulf States for an institute dedicated to 'time travel' and $200 million for his own crypto coin. We've barely scratched the surface but one thing that should be clear is that Elon Musk is still deeply involved in the Trump administration. He is still pillaging our government and he's still extracting as much as he can from his connections before he leaves the carcass depleted and blanched. With Trump by his side, Elon is signing tens of billions in deals with corrupt oil dictatorships looking to buy their way into the inner sanctum of our democracy. Trump and Elon are only too happy to sell them the keys. The gullible American press are too happy to play along and help them sell their PR. Make no mistake, Elon Musk is still in charge. The billionaires coup is accelerating— the only thing that's changed is the spin.

Aspartame is not used in the No Added Sugar cordials, but the ones used may be as bad or worse They are 952 Cyclamate, 950 Acesulphame K and 955 Sucralose. Concerns around artificial sweeteners tend to focus on whether they can cause cancer, weight gain, obesity, type 2 diabetes or cardiovascular problems. But government food regulators have repeatedly found artificial sweeteners to be safe, and the Cancer Council says there's no clear evidence that artificial sweeteners cause cancer in humans. A 2019 review concluded there is no strong evidence linking artificial sweeteners to any positive or negative health outcomes – although the authors did note that there's not enough evidence to rule out potential harm from long-term use, and further studies are needed.
