Mark McGowan announces that Western Australia will depart from the Commonwealth of Australia and become it's own country.

Westralia

https://youtu.be/kkSPlmaSC1A

"“My message to other states of Australia is very clear. To be honest with you I don’t like you,”

“And to be frank with you I’m tired of listening to their whinging. They never stop whinging.”


"We will be the biggest superpower in the world. Every family and every household and every person across WA will be required to respect my government.

"We will put a police officer on every single person in the state. People engaging in non-compliance will face consequences as harsh as humanly possible."

Australian political candidate buys Hitler's 1939 Mercedes-Benz 770 Grosser Offener Tourenwagen.



Drive.com.au

https://www.drive.com.au/news/clive-palmer-buys-adolf-hitlers-mercedes-benz-from-russian-billionaire-report/

Jerusalem Post

https://m.jpost.com/diaspora/antisemitism/article-699011

“I can’t get my head around this perversity. This is morally wrong and crosses many red lines that I stopped counting." He continued, calling on Palmer to "look into his heart and to think about" all those murdered by the Nazis.

Abramovich, adds that "the vehicle of this monster, the world’s biggest murderer of Jews, should not form part of any vintage car collection or a car museum. If it belongs anywhere, it should be housed in an educational institution that educates about the Holocaust"


DMarge

https://www.dmarge.com/2022/02/clive-palmer-hitler-car.html

"Some other dictators who either drove or were driven in the 770 include Italy’s Benito Mussolini, Portugal’s António Salazar, Romania’s Ion Antonescu and Spain’s Francisco Franco. Other high-ranking Nazis such as Hermann Göring, Reinhard Heydrich and Heinrich Himmler also used the 770."

Strange purchase for Australian Senate candidate, Clive Palmer, who is suffering from COVID-19 in hospital.

Clive acquired the car this week from a Russian billionaire (who was short a few rubles).

4 South Korean female backpackers in their 20's on a working holiday in QLD have pulled out in front of a semi-trailer near my friends farm in Stanthorpe.

They were T-boned at 110 km/hr from the side.

https://www.9news.com.au/national/new-england-highway-crash-fears-four-dead-near-stanthorpe-queensland/eec33835-e9c8-499e-b6ff-268b79867312

One of our family friends died near here in 1978 when his truck drove into a train with no level crossing at night. His son survived the accident magically.

R.I.P. young South Korean souls.

Turns out Australia has a cat problem.

https://www.awe.gov.au/biosecurity-trade/invasive-species/feral-animals-australia/feral-cats#:~:text=Feral%20cats%20are%20the%20same,grasslands%2C%20wetlands%20and%20arid%20areas.

Australian native animals facing extinction thanks to feral cats.

In some conservation areas, cats will be captured, hunted and killed regardless of whether they have a collar.

In Fremantle, Western Australia, cats found on council property, verges, streets etc will now earn their owners a $200 fine.

That means 24 hours a day, the cat must remain on your property. If the cat is unregistered, than it's game over for Puss Puss.

Looks like the only place left for cats is Facebook videos.

Australia will try and phase out cats by 2030 in certain regional areas.

Man attacked by Kangaroo.

SPOILER

The Kangaroo gave a good account of itself, but the old boy took advantage of the inherent zoological imbalance of the beast.

Say hello to the highest paid fast food workers on the planet.

Take-away franchise 'Chicken Treat' workers will be offered $130,000 p.a. to help with managing the South Hedland store in Western Australia.

https://www.smartcompany.com.au/industries/hospitality/chicken-shop-labour-shortages-businesses/

That means 2 managers will be employed at a total cost of $260,000 as each will be on an 8 day's on, 6 days off roster flying from Perth.

The $130,000 does not include managerial bonuses or flights and accommodation whilst in South Hedland.

Apparently, the locals go nuts for take away chicken.

'Chicken Treat' was made famous during WA Inc. days in the 1980's when Labor Premier Brian Burke use to go through the Drive-Thru and receive paper bags full of cash in exchange for real estate development deals for associates, one of whom owned 'Chicken Treat'.

Premier Burke liked the Deluxe Chicken Burger with extra Mayo so to speak.

In remote Borthern Territory, 1kg of coffee now costs $74.

https://www.abc.net.au/news/2022-06-25/food-prices-in-remote-northern-territory-communities-skyrocket/101160112

When I was in Kalgoorlie yesterday, one of the drillers asked for:

1. Cigarettes - 2 * 40 Packs - $140
2. Two Cartons of Victoria Bitter - $120
3. Rolla Papers - $4
4. The Will To Live

The cigarette shop they don't sell "The Will to Live".

Glad I don't drink or smoke.

Manly Football Clubs players refuse to play with Gay Pride jumpers this weekend.

https://www.abc.net.au/news/2022-07-25/nrl-manly-facing-player-revolt-over-pride-jersey/101268552

Normally not a big deal, but these islander players believe homosexuals are an affront to their religious beliefs.

Car wait times in my neck of the woods.

https://pricemycar.com.au/delivery-dates

286 days wait for a new Isuzu.

Those wait times are yet to reverse in trend.

As a result, some second hand Toyota's in Western Australia sell for over $200,000.

Pauline Hanson unloads on Greens Senator Mehreen Faruqi.

Mehreen's comments about the death of Queen Elizabeth II were clearly misplaced:

"I cannot mourn the leader of a racist empire built on stolen lives, land and wealth of colonised peoples."

Pauline Hanson replied:

"Your attitude appalls and disgusts me. When you immigrated to Australia you took every advantage of this country. You took citizenship, bought multiple homes, and a job in a parliament. It’s clear you're not happy, so pack your bags and piss off back to Pakistan."

https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/2022/09/14/commonwealth-realm-republic-canada-jamaica-australia/

Senator Jacqui Lambie agrees:

One of the saddest photos of the living conditions in Australia I have ever seen.



Photo of Charlie taken by his mother Mackay when they were living in their car in country Western Australia. (GoFundMe)

The Western Australian Government just had a budget surplus of $6 Billion from Iron Ore royalties, but normal people cannot afford to buy a house or rent a property. The rental market is just absurdly tight and therefore, expensive. The rental market is simply corrupted.

After failing to find a home, this woman then moved to the country and they live in her car 75km away from where he goes to school for the simple fact that she has to avoid male predators at night near the town.

A GoFundMe page raised $20,000 and they got a rental, but it should have never gotten to this. A country is rotten at its core when this happens.

The number of people living in their car has skyrocketed in Australia as real estate prices have soared leading to regional town housing prices exploding.

Echuca residents lie in wait as flood waters of the Murray River coming today.

https://www.9news.com.au/national/victoria-floods-update-residents-face-being-cutoff-for-a-week-as-thousands-flee-rising-waters-amid-threat-of-more-rain/9718df1a-ae2e-402a-aa20-99778b304fdd

Basically, it's analogous to a slow moving horror movie as many will have their homes flooded.
