Ben Raue's election night live blog

Pretty big wipe out. Some pretty big swings against the incumbent, Labor, as well.

Prominent Australian artist Mike Parr dropped by Anna Schwartz Gallery over performance that referenced the Israel-Gaza War

Read this article straight after also. Its a terrible look for Schwartz media and anybody else using powerful positions to silence others.

Thats a nice, but also sad story to read.

 

So did anybody here this noise? Do you think it was an aircraft? Or just a particularly vigorous snore from the judge in the Linda Reynolds v Brittany Higgins case?

Hehehe, they'll need smaller eyes for all the light though. Or a fashionable range of sunglasses.

~ However, I will retain an overall interest in the policy questions that arise concerning these referrals generally, because those questions - particular the scope of "corrupt conduct" - will necessarily have ongojng ramifications for us.

This is probably the most important quote in the article from Paul Brereton's email.

I don't know that it indicates anything but the leadership wanting to limit the extent of the NACC's remit to the most serious forms of "corrupt conduct". I suppose from their point of view they have a budget, and if the NACC becomes too burdensome the next government might get rid of it.

But when there's already been recommendations for civil and criminal pursuit of 6 people. I don't know, more explanation is needed.

I'm a bit late to this, but,

Ode to Sirens, Greekish and good food, Vinyl spinning, drinks are typical quality freo-faire.

Went there for lunch a few months back really nice sitting in that back alley on a warm sunny day. Lovely experience all round, would like to go back.

Your wallet, however, will feel like its floating in your pocket after you pay.

“We would add that connectivity to our river that our city has never really been able to embrace.”

What do you mean Baz, its still a great big ~~hotel lobby~~ park to walk through!

Also $2b, that buys a lot of social housing, or solar panels, or raffle tickets to fix the cracks in Naganooks swimming pool..

Can we not embark on another MEGA project for a couple years, and just, i don't know, build something we need.

I'll take the 3000 trees down there though Bazzza, but your tree guys havin a laugh, Trillion trees'll cut ya a better deal.

FAQ Perth Zoo Perth Zoo’s Butterfly House was built as a temporary exhibit with limited funds and operated from 1995 to 2001. It stood where African Painted Dog exhibit now spreads.

Butterfly houses require a significant amount of energy to maintain the kind of temperatures, humidity and bio-security necessary to keep and breed butterflies from around the world in Western Australia. Suitable pupae (young caterpillars) also need to be imported into the State to display a good collection of butterfly species. This makes keeping and responsibly maintaining a butterfly collection quite a carbon unfriendly activity compared to other zoo activities.

What?? I thought it was there longer than that.

I's told the butterfly house got removed because the zookeepers found the butterflys were actually demonstrating really stressed behaviours when people walked through, but i don't know how true that is.

 

Does anybody remember these little guys? I don't know if I do.

Query over Striker $$s (heraldonlinejournal.com)
 

The Freo Pilot service has been around for nearly 200 years, thats sooner after colonisation than i'd have guessed.

I'm guessing the Kwinana facility will still have a pilot service, but theres no way the docks down there will be as tricky for the container ships as Freo is.

 

Sounds like a really good spot for a primary school.

Housing right next to the primary school and the rates associated with them, plus $4 million... sounds like a fair plan to me.

Zempilas is politicising a wet fish for the attention here.

 

Why are we so obsessed with our lawns! Now we're laying grass in the Ocean! Lawn culture in the country is out of control! The Gobernet needs to take action against these Horticultural extremists! /s

 

F.o.K.P. Case against & Online Form (their "survey")

What a joke!

I don't know what i think of the issue itself, but the Friends of Kings Park group should be ashamed of themselves this morning.

Putting an online form on their website, and having essentially their network fill it out is not an gauge of public sentiment. And undermines the legitimacy of good faith attempts at data gathering.

Restricting sections of the botanic garden to provide high-priced accommodation for a select few does not align with this vision.

This is one of the examples of leading the respondent in their preamble.

By leaving it as an online form, and taking no demographic information this "survey" is no better than online product reviews and as such should be ignored by the government.

The Gov now probably need to employ a company who actually know how to conduct a survey to gauge real public sentiment, whatever that may be.

 

Good day for lunch in the sun.

 

4wd and mountain bike riders would be a natural set to do classes like this with as well.

 

Might be a bit late for a doco now, but this ones an interesting watch.

Never really thought about a whole community living pretty much full time on the islands, but there ya go.

 

I reckon its time for a change to the way we build homes here. Our current method seems slow, wasteful, and needlessly costly.
