i have actually given some help to the pinkos today . (a tip off on child care )

might help my old footy mate Tim Hammond win Perth

more importantly might help promote my wife's business

That's how I feel supporting the Tories in this election.

I expect a phone pic to be taken of your ballot paper and posted to this site before I believe this. Cool

Can't take photos in the booth sadly.

by JGK Fri 10 Jun 2016, 08:30

Would a screen shot of my bet on the ALP to win the election convince you?

by skully Fri 10 Jun 2016, 09:00

Negative.

skulls

I will be voting for Michael Keenan in the HoR ...no idea who the pinko candidate is ...have not seen a single Federal pinko ad in the North ...roads are full of signs for the Good Guys

saving there money for areas they might win

The senate will be my usual mixed bag of Libs Nats Pinkos and Greens

Really. Stupid rule just ignore it. or;

Vote in the next electorate as absentee or pre-vote. In QLD the ECQ went on a jihad with the electoral rolls and then a jihad on non voters, consequently a lot of people were asking to photograph the envelope the ballot went in. Shouldn't be too hard to get a quick shot of the ballot.

Sounds like a pain in the arse just to keep skully happy.

By the next election I should be back voting for the pinkos anyway.

Would a sergeant-at-arms come and arrest you if you took a sneaky pic of your ballot paper? I think not.

The putative Liberal candidate in Calwell will not now be opposing the sitting ALP member, Maria Farmfarkinou. Something about owning a brothel and failing to disclose this disqualifies him from standing and sitting (but not lying).

Ironically, this stuff arises because he COULD organise a root in brothel.

Yeah you'd think the Libs would want to keep one of the few who could.

I was almost the landlord of a brothel once. Always wondered about interesting lease conditions regarding quality control.

3rd party personal damage insurance?

by Bradman Sun 12 Jun 2016, 01:49

Insurance was interesting, pity politics got in the way. Could have been a nice little earner.

Had to provide legal advice on the liabilities with regards to a swinger's club once as well. Was worth the time just to get the membership list.

Would have been worth the money if you could have sold it!

by Bradman Sun 12 Jun 2016, 02:00

Would have been sacked and/or jailed, or at the very least been a nice target for one of Howard's hitmen.

Small country town. When you've got to deal with apparently serious people on serious issues on a daily basis there were times I thought I was better off not knowing.

I'm speechless...

Will appeal to a few rednecks.

Pretty sure they are already voting for BK.

any risk of attracting other voters has been mitigated, though

Katter's excuse re the timing of the ad:

"I don’t know what is going on in the media, I don’t watch television, I get to bed at midnight every night, I don’t see the newspapers.”

by skully Thu 16 Jun 2016, 03:26

Yes Donald.

by Bradman Fri 17 Jun 2016, 05:26

Bob just gets a bit confused sometimes. But you're right. It'll only give pause to the blow-ins.

by skully Fri 17 Jun 2016, 05:42

Katter's been the local Member for 30-odd years, no? He could take a dump on national TV and the cow cockies would still vote for him.

by Bradman Fri 17 Jun 2016, 06:00

And Daddy before that and another family (ALP) before that going back to federation. I think the "get the pinko"s vote saw a swing to the Nats last time but that'll probably come back. The Nat candidate this time is gay.
