Just because your blue eyes match the decor does NOT mean you are allowed up there mister 🤭

Superb suggestions by so many. My 25 cents: (eg Dutto's recent ref to Whitlam's era as a pejorative). Expand who/what Whitlam did re currency of his policies still in existance. Connect the then with the now. Myth busting the big 2, focus on minor & indies people & policy

I would like to wallop all of my fellow Qlders repeatedly who voted for this salt & flavour reduced Newman horror story with a rolled up Courier Fail. Serving up a slice of "I told you so" is no consolation when you have to live 4 years under this predictable horror show 🙄😖

Farmer's kid here. Primary producers collectively aren't dills. They, better than most, see & understa d sustainable vs unsustainable practices wrought from the landscape. Gas drilling poisoning water sources, mining turning primary ag country into blackfield sites vs grazing around solar/wind farms

John Howard was a key architect in the politicising of the migrant as electoral fodder. He didn't invent racism, but successfully honed it as a political weapon in Aus.

Jodphur Fort - bird flight sunset #photography
Sunset creating a glowing red hue on the face of the stone walls of the Jodphur fort. Viewpoint towards the distant hills is framed by towering walls on either side of image. Birds taking flight are silhoutted in the sky between the towers.

Capturing Cappadocia #photography
 Colourful balloons aloft over snow covered rock pinnacles that look like fairy chimneys and a large snow covered massif. Sunlight creates light & shadows on this landscape in Cappadocia Turkiye

This farmers kid still chuckling at the memories that elicits...and then pulls a muscle from the reality of dutto PM. Someone sit Albo down with tea & an iced vovo for a stern talking to. In the shed. One of those talks that you REALLY listen to.

Qld. We occasionally vote for sub optimal pollies (& grow a few of our own) but ambo cover has been automatic for residents for as long as I can recall. And it extends to reciprocal care when interstate. Qlders who move often learn the hard way this is not uniform across Oz

Cobbles in Como. Italy. #photography
Viewpoint low to the narrow cobbled laneway within the ancient city walls. Two story villas clad in local stone facades tower on each side.

As did I. Didn't mean access to a GP - more the routine/specialised testing that is just down the road in metro areas, and frequently not so available rurally. Tyranny of distance - cost/complexity of travel impacts many. Improving slowly...

No one on Sky News has ever been accused of investigative journalism. Or journalism for that matter. As to a fall from "grace" ahem, is grace what we are calling protected species now?

Access & normalised testing in rural areas is diminished vs city. Farmer's kid here - detecting serious conditions too late is rife when testing/treatment is not local - shows up in dats sets sadly

The Nats in rural areas supported by retired farming families who once voted "Country Party". TCP arguably did support rural & farming communities. TCP became "The Nats" - no focus on primary production 'cept mining. Convincing legacy voters to change in their 70's/80's is a steep task.

John you make a great point. Probably every possible angle & season has been covered in this beautiful location. Here's a shot I took in Jan seeking a little less common (I hope 🤞) composition. #photography
A view of Eilean Donan Castle Scotland taken through a forged iron opening in the ancient stone wall of the bridge leading to the castle isthumus. A metal crest with red embossed red stars & mid blue stripe sits in the foreground whilst the castle & grounds are slightly out of focus in the distance.
