    How are you supposed to know what he believes if we’re told that he believes the exact opposite of what he believed when no one knew who he was.

    Presumbly he's posted a lot more on whatever blogs or forums one trawls through to find this stuff, so do these things stand as outliers, is there more of this, or has he only ever committed his world view to the internet on three occasions espousing racist ideas about IQ, the need to neuter the poor and the fact that a few kids as collateral damage is acceptable if everyone gets a B in GCSE maths? I would want to see a broader survey of his abhorrent views before deeming him a monster beyond redemption. People espouse stupid ideas all the time, particularly via the (historically) anonymous medium of the internet (maybe question the wisdom of using your own name).

    Owt means 'anything' apparently, t'was on The Chase earlier. I thought it was 'something'.

    I'm not saying he should be locked up. However, I don't think that the bar for public office should be set at 'slightly above monster beyond redemption'. Enoch Powell was drummed out for less than what this bloke espoused. At least he recognised ethnics as smart enough to infiltrate and subsequently destroy society.

    I'll defer to Lewis on Enoch but can't help but feel you might be doing him and his legacy of being a racist a bit of a disservice by saying a random comment on a random blog from 6 years ago outdoes his lifetime's work in the field.

    Seems that according to Guido Fawkes he was the top advisor for fucking defense so I think we can give him slightly less benefit of the doubt.

    Western Australia has taken an enormous lead as the most racist state within the Federation.

    I read all that but still didn’t pick up on what RSL stood for or what they were.

    Anyway, just don’t get too racist and send all our dregs back. We were glad to see the back of them.

    Didnt teach this in school.

    The blackbirding trade
    What happened on Tanna is known as blackbirding.

    Tens of thousands of Pacific Islanders throughout Vanuatu and the Solomon Islands also became caught up in the trade.

    It was started in 1847 by a New South Wales-based grazier, and 16 years later the idea to import Pacific labour was picked up further north in Queensland.

    Until the trade ended in 1901, around 62,000 people — mostly boys and young men — were taken to work on sugar plantations.

    He has been forgotten about down here for the most part. I dare say the US are telling Dutton and Scummo to not say a word.

    A 111-year-old former teacher and engineer from Hampshire is set to be confirmed as the world's oldest man.

    Bob Weighton, who was born on 29 March 1908, is expected to be named as the new record-holder following the death of 112-year-old Chitetsu Watanabe.

    Back to business. Eg Wombat cull
    The planned cull will take place near Point Pearce — on Aboriginal-owned farmland.

    According to traditional owner and Adjahdura/Narungga and Ngadjuri elder Quenten Agius, the farmer who rents the land from the Aboriginal community is having his equipment broken when he runs over the animals.
