Canberra Contrarian

@Leah_CBR Could be a chokito

@CactusCocktail It morphed from a feral, pagan festival into a middle class cash cow. I gave it away when it became a cash cow.

@ContrarCanberra It was cranking just 3 years ago.

Which bunch of naysaying NIMBYs totally fucked the best thing about Katoomba ? #Winter #Festival is shut down this year.

Looks like the Knight's bubble has burst

@EVERALDATLARGE Surely he is just keeping the seat warm until Andrew Barr is ready to make the switch

Absolutely correct. It is brave statements like this that have kept #AndrewLeigh out of the #Labor Cabinet. He is too honest. ://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2025/may/19/labor-andrew-leigh-focus-productivity-after-us-inequality-warning?CMP=share_btn_url

@AdamBandt I am contect. A stake has been driven through the heart of the nuclear farce

Today, millions of people have voted Greens with hope and ambition. We have secured the biggest national vote in our history. And together we have kicked Dutton out.

@CasspCan @DrDemography Not a parliament, just a play pen

@DrDemography Val Jeffery was 81 when he entered the ACT legislative parliament

What’s the oldest age at which a parliamentarian was elected to federally? By gender would be great.

@CactusCocktail Not I.

All of #Canberra looking forward to the 5 hour drive to the coast this weekend.

@Leah_CBR Well I wasn't asked for any input I might have. And the crapola in my locL CC submission is far from representative or accurate. It also tortures King Charles' English language as it circumnavigates

@Leah_CBR OMG, when is Barr ever going to stop funding this unrepresentative rabble?

@BrentFord26 Well let us hope the Faders don't come out in the 2nd 40

@RangaRunner I could easily resemble that image. When will they ever learn to pack lighter? And why is there never a Uber when you want one?

@lesstenny Medium range hotels work out cheaper

Starting to wonder why I'm the only one amongst all my old friends who hasn't yet purchased an expensive caravan..the thought of slumming it and having it blocking my front yard almost all year around is not exciting me very much Anyone else weird just like me ? 🫣😄

@Leah_CBR All I want to know is where to get 2 buck oysters

Does this mean the guy with the annoying and loud early morning leaf blower will lose his job?

@katea76 Ed Husic is a total stand out

@CactusCocktail I can run a/c from dawn till dusk from my pv arrays and still contribute some spare power to the network. Not giving any control away.

Putting aside you live in a poorly designed and built, totally unsuitable for the climate, mcmansion.

Giving up control of your AC means big corporates get to keep the power on whilst you broil in your own house. abc.net.au/news/science/2…?

@InnerSouthACT What reforms? I didn't see any

The ISCCC has written to Planning Minister Steel seeking an update on the evaluation of recent planning reforms isccc.org.au/planning-refor…

@ElaineM11584892 Maybe Dutton will say Albo will sewer the 'burbs next! This is a real time warp we are in.

Dutton holding forth on Chanel 9. Says the government is going back to Whitlam times buying the Whyalla steel works.

@GrogsGamut This is surely a wind up
