Australian Floods
- Thread starter IanAnderson
- Start date
I'm agreeing with Pete; pissed off with both the main parties and also the Greens. The Democrats died. Can we round up a large group of intelligent Independents? There aré not sufficient options to get us out of this stagnant rut where we're all getting screwed.

The enquiry into the management of Wivenhoe Dam will show that water should have been released before it reached 60% capacity but this was not done because "someone" took the decision to keep the dam at 100%
maybe because of the previous drought conditions. Wivenhoe was always supposed to be used for flood mitigation not drinking water. Someone screwed up big-time.
The scary thing is the flood gates have been shut and the dam is still at 100% capacity with a couple of Cyclones threatening. F%%cking morons are in charge.

I could not think of anywhere else to post this, this Government pisses me off.
Something to think about.
The sad thing about this is, when Ipswich flooded not one of those poor devils were allowed to go to the air force base, it was considered too risky. Keep in mind that no one lives on Amberley base these days, but has huge amounts of accommodation, an officer's mess kitchen ( now unused) a movie theatre, could have helped with the kids. Endless source of water, electricity and room for vehicles.... But NO, they were not allowed to go there, but Muslims that have disrespected our Air Force base in Weipa, are allowed to stay.
WHAT IS GOING ON in this country....
This is from the man who drives the pilot boat in Weipa....
Three hundred boat people have been housed at RAAF Sherger Air Base in Weipa.
All are being accepted into Australia.
All are men.
All receive the pension same as our pensioners – all get the same amount again for hardship payment – this equals twice what our pensioners get.
All receive fifty dollars a day for spending money.
Security staff employed to watch them.
Chefs employed to feed them (one quarter of a tonne of chicken a day alone is cooked).
They won't pick up their own rubbish.
There was a massive dispute because they didn't like the radio station.
Another dispute because batteries were flat for the Nintendo games.
Tents set up for mosque prayers had to be air conditioned.
The Bores/Wells set up to run RAAF Sherger adequately are now dry because taps are left running all day long.
Sewerage systems now blocked with condoms (???) supplied to them (and all of them are men remember)
Dept of Immigration & Citizenship (DIAC) wants Dept of Defence to pay all the bills so they can hide the costs of allowing three hundred refugees into the country from tax paying Australians.
Australia needs to know.
Congratulations Gillard you fool.

Pete,
When she talks on TV she sounds as though she has had a stroke in the broca's area or is brain damaged in some other way. Maybe they all sound like that in Barry, Glamorgan (Wales)

Pete - So sorry to hear of this. It is a situation that we face here too. Unequal rights for those less deserving....
Disgusting. :thumbsdown:
Dave,
The bits I've left in are accurate. The rest, to be polite, is burley for the pilot boat.
Freewheel,
Thanks for that.
I found Pete's post disturbing, given that a couple of minutes googling gave the lie to the income these jokers receive.
I am not a party political animal, as I have previously indicated. Our PM is not winning any friends, but the mad monk is totally OTT.
Dalton is on the money. Where are the politically competent? This crowd of self serving turkeys (and I include the current lower house) seem to ricochet between the various opinions of the radio shock jocks. The Greens do not bear consideration.
What a way to run a seriously magnificent country!

Probably should be "Screaming Eagle" named after a well known motor bike exhaust system. (All noise no performance)
Well given the size of her ear lobes I'm not surprised people mistake them for wings.:laugh:

Not Quite Freewheel, I will reply when I get home. I'm currently enjoying the delights of down town Juneau Alaska. A bit hard to do research here.
