Obviously has been removed, can I ask why?
Brooke and I were having a discussion without any name calling etc (as far as I could see), it obviously went bad this afternoon or this evening, can anyone shed any light as to what happened. |

Pretty amazing program last night as this SAS/war crimes stuff is moving along, singling out Ben Roberts-Smith for scrutiny.

This after the disturbing footage of an unprovoked killing of a civilian, excused by the Army in an internal investigation which totally blied the facts of the murder: "War hero" Ben Roberts-Smith interviewed by police over alleged killing The Australian Federal Police has interviewed former SAS soldier Ben Roberts-Smith over allegations he kicked an Afghan prisoner off a cliff in a serious development in the long-running saga involving Australia’s most decorated Afghan veteran. Legal sources confirmed that the federal police recently requested Mr Roberts-Smith to attend a formal interview to respond to allegations made by special forces insiders that he kicked a detainee off a cliff in September 2012. In September, The Age and The Sydney Morning Herald revealed that an AFP taskforce was investigating Mr Roberts-Smith over allegations he kicked a handcuffed and innocent detainee, Ali Jan, off a cliff in the village of Darwan in September 2012. The Darwan taskforce has obtained co-operation from SAS witnesses and support staff willing to testify on oath against the decorated soldier. A second police investigation is looking into allegations Mr Roberts-Smith is implicated in the summary execution of a man at a compound in southern Afghanistan in April 2009. |

There would be a lot of evidence surrounding the situations of the time.
Our military weren't sure at times , who the active enemy were. Not good to jump to conclusions. If in doubt = take em out ,may well have been the battlefield motto. Our Servicemen weren't there on a Sunday School Picnic. |

They are promoting a massive bombshell for Sunday night regarding power in Australia.

Probably a scoop that Rupert Reaper Murdoch is the anti-Christ.
Oh sorry I think I heard something about Teflon Angus Taylor and his boss asking the energy companies nicely to lower prices to make them look good. Many options. To answer the query, any show that has or had Liz Hayes reporting is not hard hitting!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |

The only matter of interest in that show, would be whatever illegality was perpetrated, the internal shenanigans of the Labor party is their problem.

Any Chinese named, or are they getting a break now that the damage demonising them is being realised with our trade being demolished and now our citizens being executed?

What was going on there? I have the volume on my tv set at 10 but I had to increase it to 20 to hear what was going on. Gave it the flick quick.

Branch stacking doesn't always work out though. Remember in 2018 when they tried to roll Tony Abbott in his Warringah pre-selection standing an empty chair against him and bringing out numbers to support the chair. Didn't succeed though, the empty chair only got 38%.

PT, you are up to your old trick of deflecting from the content . In this case the corruption of the Andrews ALP government. As this has been exposed by Channel 9 and The Age newspaper, both of whom lean to the left, you would have to agree the Socialist government of Andrews is corrupt to the bone.

Branch stacking looks simple to eradicate. You can't vote in pre-selections unless you have attended loads of boring branch meetings - 20 in 2 years - something like that. Do they have attendance rules for voting rights?

It is all ridiculous. I have been to many pre-selection meetings and you are lucky to have 30-40 people there. 5-10 on normal branch meetings. Not too hard to stack those sort of numbers.
I dont think the issue in this case is the actual stacking, but the funding of the stackees.

Stackees ? Where did you pluck that term from the ALP code of conduct booklet ?
I believe Keith Stackpole, the cricketer, was known as Stacky, but I have never heard of Stackees.
