Day 15 💥🚂

“As Price got into full flight, Dutton’s team tried to end the press conference.

But Price kept talking.”

“When the press conference’s final question turned to Price’s plans for cutting #GovernmentWaste in a potential #Coalition cabinet, the senator seized her moment. In 11 minutes, she traversed everything from the indoctrination of students to “silly ideas around ideological things like colonising breastfeeding”.

There had been no plan for Dutton’s spokeswoman for #IndigenousAffairs and government efficiency to take centre stage. Half an hour earlier, Price had led a rallying cry to “make Australia great again”.

Discipline, focus, strategy?

Day 14 cont 🗣️🎙️📺 🇺🇸

“Price was appointed to lead a government efficiency unit if the #Coalition government is elected after 3 May. The unit, which would sit within the prime minister’s department, has been compared to one led by US #tech billionaire Elon Musk (#TechWeenie, #Oligarch), whose Department of Government #Efficiency, or Doge, is taking a razor to US government departments.

“Let’s be very, very clear, media, you’re obsessed with Donald Trump 🎃. We’re not obsessed with Donald Trump. We’re actually obsessed with ensuring that we can improve the circumstances for #Australians,” she said.”

Devoid of any #policy, #analysis, #costing, #ideas an LNP Senator makes a word salad of foreign phrases about making the “Bond market” sexy again, from a #BowlingClub on a Saturday in #Perth.

Repeat the slogans,
Repeat the slogans,
Repeat the #slogans.

Huntingtower Castle, west of Perth, is a beautifully atmospheric time capsule. It was originally two separate tower houses built three metres apart that were joined together in the 1600s to form one. More pics and info: https://www.undiscoveredscotland.co.uk/perth/huntingtower/index.html

Are drivers more accommodating of pedestrians on double demerit long weekends? Just watching the traffic in #VicPark and the amount of drivers giving way seems unusually high compared to other weekends. #perth

Australian #eurovision fans: Icelandic Eurovision diva Hera Bjork is currently touring her musical cabaret show and it’s an absolute delight. I saw it last night and had so much fun.

There is currently a bushfire in Bull Creek, with a watch alert for Willetton in Perth, Western Australia. This is not the edge of the city. This is suburban Perth proper.

With climate change, even those of us in built up urban areas will need to be ready for bushfires.
