Grumpy Old Nasho

If it was voluntary, I could haggle with the insurance company to get a premium assessed for my conditions such as safe driving record, my advanced driving course (Peter Wherret) I did in 1972, and my quiet almost traffic free location. And the average miles I clock up per year. What we have at the moment is a compulsory one-size-fits-all, costing a small fortune, and if you never make a claim in your entire motoring life, you end up as a charity forking out tens of thousands of dollars for bad drivers, and for the Rolls Royce of the CTP insurer's CEO. CPT insurers have "Good Driver" premiums where they knock a few dollars off. But the implication from that is, that there are also "bad drivers". Good drivers are just charities for bad drivers who have no eyes or ears.

It's not compulsory to buy Lotto tickets.

NSW CTP insurance. You know, that one where you never get any of it back even if you never make a claim.

Well, a Labor govt just charged me $400 rego for my little sedan. And greenslip cost another $400. $800 for nothing in return. Roads are still terrible, so what are they doing with the road tax? And with only few ks on the clock per month, why such a high cost for a greenslip? There's no other traffic. Talk about a total rip off. One day they'll cop it.

It's a worry, isn't it?

His mate reckoned he didn't care if he died. And a note to his wife said "See you in heaven".

This teen in the news tonight is muslim. He was accompanied by his muslim mother as was seen on the TV news. He's charged with possessing terrorist material, a weapon, and online support of ISIS. His sentencing is coming up soon. Probably only a suspended sentence I'm betting. https://www.9news.com.au/national/teenager-charged-with-allegedly-possessing-extremist-material/1d1dfa97-59a8-4076-9fa8-5c45fa5ea7c7

Everyone wants the Iran sponsored global terrorist attacks to cease.

It's too late then, lots of damage can result in between elections.

We've had enough muslim terror attacks already. Albo would realize the domestic consequences of provoking any more attacks. The US has had one since the Iran incursion.

So you admit the only democracy we have is a vote every three years, and then let the government do what it wants without any correspondence being entered into? I'd call that "dictatorship" post election.

Albo won't help Trump much in the fight against Iran because he knows damn well there'll be muslim terrorist attacks in the streets of Melbourne and Sydney.

The only democracy we have is a vote, every three years. There is no say in the matter after that. Any thing you say falls on deaf ears.

The big cities get all the infrastructure, the bush misses out.

It's a shame we all couldn't be sovereign citizens, even just a skerrick of sovereignty would do. We can have a say about things, but it will only fall on deaf ears.

Now you're talking rubbish.

It's a topic for a new thread. What you've just posted is only half of the more recent history of Rural Australia. The other half is much more disturbing and treacherous to Australia.

Well why did you pick on One Nation then? Besides, they've been under scrutiny heaps of times because their politics differs from the Liberal's, and from Labor's.

Courtesy of Lab/Lib governments who set aside billions for the major cities, and none for Rural Australia. Except if they're chasing a criminal, and that's about it.

Huh?

Great news indeed. The Liberal party has a soul destroying curse on them and it won't be lifted till they apologize to the 60's conscripts and families of deceased conscripts.

If you think you are safe in Australia, watch these progressive mental health major party voter events. Owners' dash cams. There's hundred of raw videos like this one.

The National Party got only about 1,700 votes lol Pleases me no end to see that.

Voting is compulsory, so the onus is on Electoral Commissions to make voting easy for citizens.

Mobile polling booths - what's wrong with those? That's what we need out here.
