Angus Taylor on Insiders: Ol Born to Rule had to generalise/pander to One Notion Knuckledraggers: "Booing whatever the reason at an Anzac Day event is just not on" (Has there ever been booing for any other reason?). AT moved on to say he thought Welcome to Country was overused. #DumbAsARock #politas

So I guess it's better than landfill but it looks like all the shop fittings from the closed down H&M store on Collins Street are going to scrap metal. #fastfashion Is not just about the products they sell. #consumerism #nipaluna #lutruwita #hobart

To quote Steve Old of Hospitality Tas, interviewed on ABC Hobart: "If a live music venue is complying with all laws, rules and regulations regarding noise levels and time limits, then they are acting within the law and free to do as they please." Viva The Salty Dog Hotel. #livemusic #politas #NIMBY

... 2 The RACT was just on ABC Hobart Radio claiming that fuel may have risen by about $0.05 a litre. Are they just shills for the petroleum retail industry? I guess the motorists' friend have a cosy $0.06 per litre discount deal with one of the major retail chains to protect. #ConflictOfInterest

Last week, a fair proportion of Hobart servos were at about 156.9 a litre, in fact I filled up at that price at Ampol Moonah Thursday. Today, average price seems to be about 176.9. I didn't realise it was so quick to get fuel from its source to Tasmania and markup for war tax on new stock. #politas

In this article, my good and learned friend, Morgan Read of North Square Barristers sticks it to the Home Office and the UK Government's new regulations as to which passport British Dual Citizens can use to enter their country.

Carriers could accept expired passport ‘at their own discretion’, Home Office says, as new rules imminent

Reminder: May 2021. Then Liberal Govt MP Tim Wilson joined a run in support of Indigenous Australians, leading the pack ... for the first 100m as it left Parliament House. Then, when the tv cameras stopped filming, he turned and went back to his office. 🙄 #auspol
