  1. Within a couple of days of becoming PM, Julia Gillard has come out and admitted she is an atheist, which is great to see. She's the first leader of a western country I can recall who been so refreshingly honest. She stopped short of condoning gay marriage however, which has upset some people. Still, it's a bold start by the Welsh born leader of Australia.
  2. As it says in the Bible "The poor will always be with us.” What the bible doesn't tell us is that the poor always seem to have enough money to spend on booze, fags, unhealthy food and bad taste clothes.
  3. With many women, pets are simply child substitutes.
  4. She couldn't look any more of a dick than Abbott, let's face it! er, let me rephrase that - she couldn't look any worse than this: http://resources2.news.com.au/images/2009/12/03/1225806/772686-tony-abbott.jpg
  5. Good to see you throwing your weight behind the rule of law there bf
  6. She has nicer legs than Rudd, though. It remains to be seen if she can carry off the Speedos look as well(!) as Tony Abbott however
  7. Exactly. As in Britain, not that many Aussies go to church, something under 20% from memory. So all the God stuff is very wide of the mark and is probably part of the original US version of the rant/hoax.
  8. You already caught me with your Nigerian bank scam, so I'm not falling for that one!
  9. Ah, that old chestnut. John Howard never said any of that or anything remotely like it. Not a word of that is true. It's an internet hoax that has been doing the rounds for years, prompting people to say "If only our leader had the balls to say/do that kind of thing". Sorry to explode the myth, but the leaders of western countries simply couldn't get away with saying stuff like that. It's an adaptation of something that appeared on an American forum some years ago and has mysteriously been attributed to the former Aussie leader.
  10. I was thinking more of the tame solicitors/lawyers who are on tap 24/7 for known crime firms, underworld figures etc.
  11. I realise your ideal situation would be to dispense with all that prosecution nonsense and install two defence lawyers instead Seriously, I agree it's not the lawyer's job to decide guilt, but in a case where he knows his client to be guilty, yet must try and convince the jury/judge otherwise, what a strange charade/performance is then acted out in the courtroom. And as we all know, the wealthier the defendant, the cleverer the defence lawyer and hence the more likelihood of an acquittal. So, as with most things in life, the scales of justice are weighted in favour of those with money.
