I want to convince the few remaining people who still do not see gender transitioning as a frighteningly disastrous outcome for their own body, for their mental wellbeing and for the greater community. I will do so by drawing parallels with the notion of body integrity dysphoria (BID). Interestingly, this affliction was previously known as body integrity identity disorder (BIID), but the word identity was removed at around the same time as gender identity started to permeate the political landscape, in the early 2010’s. I am not out to demonise the trans community. Anyone can Grok my previous comments and see that I openly communicate and debate with them, and my views on the topic are clear. I believe that perceiving oneself to be of the opposing biological sex, in the absence of any discernible physiological rationale, is simply a form of mental illness. A psychological condition that we ought to help sufferers resolve. I also do not wish in the course of this post to be seen to make light of the suffering of amputees. I hope they understand this post is for good reason. Body integrity disorder is an extremely rare condition, when an otherwise healthy individual believes that one or more of their limbs or other part of their anatomy does not belong to them and they have a desire to have this removed, by way of amputation. The question is quite simple: How does the medical fraternity (especially the surgical fraternity) regard this condition? Do they ‘celebrate it’, and push it into the mainstream political sphere, suggesting that our school children be invited to consider whether they wish for an arm or a leg to be removed? Of course they do not. In 2005, the then executive director of surgical affairs at the Royal Australasian College of Surgeons said that the College's position was that a surgeon could not remove a normal limb without a medical reason. He considered amputation simply because a patient wanted it unethical. There has been no formal change to RACS position since then. So, my question is this simple: If the medical community, the education sector, the political sphere and society at large are all in agreeance that we should not remove healthy limbs from people, why on earth have we taken such a different interpretation simply because it is a penis, a vagina, breasts or uterus. Why does the Australian Federal government actively support the promulgation of gonadal surgical removal, but not the removal of limbs? Let’s call transgenderism what it is – a deeply troubled state of mind, where we must make concerted efforts to help sufferers through this challenging phase of their life.

Please make sure you grasp this Australia's new breastfeeding laws are perverse and wretched, but there's something important which, disappointingly, everyone has failed to comprehend 1. There are approximately 14 million males resident in Australia 2. Reasonable confidence estimate of 60,000 biological men who identify as transgender women based on census data 3. Lower confidence estimate of the number of biological men who identify as a transgender woman and have undergone hormone treatment to induce lactation, 1,500 4. Speculative estimate of the number of lactating transgender women capable of producing milk 200 5. Speculative estimate of the number of transgender women capable of producing milk who have either recently adopted an infant or have recently fathered a child and shortly thereafter commenced hormonal treatment Presumed in the range of 20-30 Percentage of these people who may need protection at law meaning they wish to breastfeed at the workplace or in public, less than 5 Think this through please. Why in God's name is our PM promoting a perverse scenario, that applies to a handful of deviants only, who ought be thrown in jail, so that they can reasonably force an infant to suck their chest nipple, in the expectation it produces something even remotely akin to breast milk. This small handful of highly deviant males, who perversely want a young child to suck on their nipple, for no nutritious value whatsoever, are keeping our PM from doing any semblance of a job

You seem to be forgetting the licence to charge it with air conditioning refrigerant. I presume that's regulated too....?

Absurd and horrific. Less than 2 hours ago, a high-speed train crash near Toledo, Spain, that has killed at least 46. It happened on the Madrid-Andalusia line between the Iryo Train with 147 passengers and a baby, and the Renfe train, with 397 passengers. Less than a year ago, a crash happened on the same line, between the same 2 companies… 46 people died in that one, too. We are supposed to learn lessons when this happens

It's actually not a laughing matter. This country diverts extraordinary sums of money to the ideological pursuit of transgenderism. Leading the charge are our nation's universities (need I remind you for the umpteenth time, they are NOT primarily funded by overseas students, they are mainly funded by YOU the taxpayer) Some universities give many, many weeks of *additional* leave to people who merely claim to be transgender. As we have now concluded, gender identity is both a clinical illness and a scam, and ought not consume ONE SINGLE CENT of taxpayers money. Which goes for 'everything pride' - L,G,B,T,Q,A+ Cut every last cent of funding. BUT LEAVE SUPPORT FOR 'I' in place - it is incredibly rare; it is indisputably a physical condition, and sufferers often have little idea. if or when they do learn of this condition, we should assist, in the same way as we don't turn our backs on people with MS, or MND, or CS, etc. But it is the left who are largely responsible for this scam - it is classic misdirection. The magician's trick? It's called the Motte and Bailey. The Motte? Everyone 'identifying' as any of LGBTQIA+ is afforded extreme entitlement The Bailey? When asked, they misdirect back to 'I' DSD conditions, as if that justifies the lot. It does not. Repeal the scam. @DavidCrisafulli - this is absolutely rife in your state government departments. You've done bugger all to unwind it. Time for this unaffordable and unfair lurk to end.

Sage advice.
If you are going to bet Melbourne Cup day, The Cup is a terrible race to bet on, bet on a rate hike from the RBA.

Lots of throwing toys out of the cot given Jacindargh Arghderns appointment at Sydney Uni. But here are the questions that should be asked. 1. Was this role an existing need for the university or have they, amidst a time of apparent fiscal dilemma, drummed this role up out of nowhere? I'm presuming her part time 5 year contract is circa $400k per annum....if this was discretionary spending, surely someone had to stump up a business case? Else this likely fails probity and due diligence... 2. How do the rank and file regard this? When they get laid off by sydney uni in their hundreds over the next two years...and this is inevitable....will they wonder if their careers were destroyed thanks to Jacindaaaargh and mates?

I call on the Premier of Queensland, @DavidCrisafulli, to get on the phone to Santos MD and CEO Kevin Gallagher. Santos is being kicked from pillar to post in South Australia. If they're not actively campaigning against it on their university campuses, we now hear there's a petition to boot them from the Santos annual roadrace. In Queensland, we're serious about promoting energy businesses. We know gas is critical to underpinning data centres, and data centres are key infrastructure for promoting domestic AI capability. Make the call Premier, and get Kevin to relocate Santos HQ here in Brisbane. It's much closer to their Timorese, PNG and US operations as well. No brainer for them, for the LNP and for Queenslanders. Earn your vote Premier

Is Abul stupid, or merely a liar? My money's on both. To be clear, we do NOT all want a more efficient public service. I specialise in public service efficiency. Yes....an 'expert' Let me spell out the simple, inescapable logic. A more efficient public sector means it can deliver more outcomes for the same or lower resourcing. By resourcing, i mean human or financial capital. As you've already guessed, a more efficient public service means less public servants are required. - those people don't want efficiency - their managers don't want efficiency, else they'll not have a department left - the unions don't want fewer paying members - suppliers don't want reduced demand for their goods and services It's pretty much private sector taxpayers only who want more efficiency in the public sector
We all want a more efficient public service but this type of mindless carry-on just delivers either (1) repeat of 2014 Budget; or (2) repeat of Robodebt; or (3) Musk style DOGE for which US got chaos with many staff sacked & rehired with bugger all actual savings.

I'd like to say the TGA is a pathetic, redundant regulator. The sad reality? Pretty much all regulators are this useless. How do you like this? - It took Choice, not the TGA, to run a wide scale audit of leading sunscreen brands - over 75% of products had significantly lower SPF than claimed - did the TGA hand these companies their ar*es? Of course not! Toothless tigers... - their recommendation 'we will bring in tougher regulations' 🤣🤣🤣 Seriously, these regulators are pathetic. Shut them down. tga.gov.au/resources/explore…

Every year, unions extort tens, possibly hundreds of billions of dollars out of the pockets of hard working australians. It's not enough to simply close this down. Everybody who's been in on this grift should pay a price. No CFMEU worker should ever receive any taxpayer funding again streamlinefeed.co.ke/news/cf…

If you believe free speech is for you but not your political opponents, you're illiberal. If no contrary evidence could change your beliefs, you're a fundamentalist. If you believe the state should punish those with contrary views, you're a totalitarian. If you believe political opponents should be punished with violence or death, you're a terrorist.

Most people think they have robust critical thinking skills 👀 So what's an example? 1. "Some drugs are clearly performance enhancing and must be banned in sports" Yet 2. "The world's best athletes are not drug cheats...they get tested" 👀

For reference, I curtailed the chart for brevity. But at request of this halfwit, here it is going back a further 20 years. There's an old saying - don't ask questions if you cannot control the answers. #aninconvenienttruth
You (perhaps conveniently) omitted a very important point in your summary? That was the Coalition (Howard & Costello) predisposition for selling all the Gov’s assets. EG. In ‘97 they sold 2/3rds of our gold for $2.4 Billion, it would be worth 30 today. Not to mention Telstra etc.

Replying to @JasonClareMP
@JasonClareMP Hi Jason - as you know, educational outcomes have continued their rapid decline under your stewardship. Clearly, the solution alludes you. But i can fix all that. How much of a grant can I get for this? Would it help if I went blackface?
Does anyone have any contacts in at the various State, Territory and Federal education departments? I'm seeking a grant to sharpen the colouring on my proprietary CDAC (Cognitive Dissonance Amelioration Chart) ™️ I propose this be adorned in every schoolroom, hallway and in all public toilets. As well as public transports and overhanging major toll road gantries.

Australia’s sex discrimination commissioner has confirmed in senate estimates that men who claim to be women are covered by breastfeeding protections in the sex discrimination act.
