@WarrenVsCCP A post by someone displaying the American flag criticising another country when America has killed innocent citizens on its own streets. My God, the hypocrisy is unbelievable.

Beijing, China: An ordinary citizen from China’s northeast traveled to Beijing to petition over a local grievance. Instead of justice, he was chased down by local officials and assaulted in the street. He was then handed over to public security and beaten in public for more than four minutes. This is how petitions are handled in China. This is the China you don't see...

@JamesSurowiecki And if there is. Trade surplus like there is between US and Australia, it defaults to a basic 10%.

Just figured out where these fake tariff rates come from. They didn't actually calculate tariff rates + non-tariff barriers, as they say they did. Instead, for every country, they just took our trade deficit with that country and divided it by the country's exports to us. So we have a $17.9 billion trade deficit with Indonesia. Its exports to us are $28 billion. $17.9/$28 = 64%, which Trump claims is the tariff rate Indonesia charges us. What extraordinary nonsense this is.
James Surowiecki@JamesSurowiecki

It's also important to understand that the tariff rates that foreign countries are supposedly charging us are just made-up numbers. South Korea, with which we have a trade agreement, is not charging a 50% tariff on U.S. exports. Nor is the EU charging a 39% tariff.

@AlanKohler The Tooth Fairy franchise in Ashgrove’s charges a lot more than that. Must be postcode pricing.

@PatsKarvelas Great column AC. And who can forget this appalling incident Lyon and Norway forward Ada Hegerberg won the inaugural women's Ballon d'Or after a year that included Champions League success. Her moment was overshadowed when French DJ Martin Solveig asked her if she could twerk

@ShellieK4 @DoctorKarl I see. But doesn’t the parliament have to legislate the powers of the voice and therefore we are in the same situation? So if the referendum is voted down, couldn’t the government, this and the future ones, pass laws to create such a committee. Even call it the Voice.

@PaulCoop5 @DoctorKarl Yes and there have been many such committees, but every time there’s a change of government one committee gets abolished and another is put in it’s place so there is no continuity.

Is it correct that The Voice: 1) cannot make laws; 2) cannot control funding; 3) cannot sit in the Houses of the Australian Parliament; 4) is proposed to be a committee that gives advice?

Now or not for a while? Getting the EU-Australia FTA over the line now is crucial with other EU trade agreements piling up and the EU 2024 election lingering. #AMGC #manufacturing #FTA

@MikeCarlton01 Imagine if a consultant was hired to examine government IT security and vulnerabilities (and not tax loopholes) and then sold that information to criminals (other than tax fraudsters) to exploit. Would there be more or less outrage? Seems similarly plausible to me.
