Great work, guys. Moving fast on the issues that really matter. /s

Hey, they're also moving fast on other issues, like putting children in gaol and ensuring that taking drugs is as dangerous as possible!

Good point. It's been an eventful year for America Lite.

Queensland's a funny state. Labor has been in Government most of my life, but the brief periods of LNP governance have been some of the most outwardly destructive. And weirdly, outside of the last two federal elections, we've had a strong lean towards LNP federally.

Queensland and New Zealand. Two paradises on earth with shitty unicameral parliaments where a bunch of fuckwits can get voted in and destroy the place with no oversight.

At least NZ's unicam is proportional instead of single-winner.

must have got that information or whatever they were after real quick

[-] Zagorath@aussie.zone 6 points 3 months ago

Nah they just used a different process. Original process was a "health directive", which requires consultation. New ban is a "ministerial directive" which has no such oversight. It's them literally declaring out loud "we don't care about medical experts or the best health outcomes."
