MAX CRUS: Scotty from marketing is on fire


MAX CRUS: Scotty from marketing is on fire

It costs a bomb to be poor.
Geez, Scotty from marketing is on fire… no, no, sorry, not like the bushfires. No, he’s devised a genius rescue of the ailing tourism industry when he stops JobKeeper – hand out half-price airline tickets to Queensland.
Yoohoo!
Well, unless you’re a Queenslander, or heat, humidity, mozzies, and killer jellyfish aren’t really your thing, or if a half-price ticket isn’t going to help unless Scotty also halves your electricity bill and Centrelink doesn’t mind you going on hol’s instead of applying for 50 jobs a day.

MAX CRUS: Cheers Cheer for cancelling Coon

Of course a name change was necessary, and the debate subsided almost as quickly as the racist jokes, but to call it Cheer?

LETTER: Australia Day rebuttle - Pt III


But the criteria, which are essential for the day being celebrated, have to be based on factors which include being raceless, colourless and timeless. Both Governor Phillip and Eddie Mabo along with many other options do not meet these criteria.
26/1/49 does. It wasn't an instantaneous magic wand, but it was, and is, a good foundation.
Progress has constantly been achieved since then and will continue doing so. It will not be a bump-less ride, but will include the adding and subtracting "rules", to ensure it is a level playing field for everyone.
And if the Aboriginals don't want to be Australians, then the whole exercise is pointless, isn't it? But I suspect they do, as long as all Australians are equal.

There's one thing that really gives me the pip: entitled white guys (and women) jumping up and down because their public holiday celebrating good ancestral fortune is threatened by a growing majority who are a bit more compassionate, a bit less afraid of modernity and who appreciate that inclusiveness doesn't really seem the appropriate word for a celebration of one mob's compulsory acquisition of another's land.
Paradoxically, confiscation of land and lifestyle isn't even the worst bit of die-hard 26th of January types, it's that even after nearly 250 years some people still think it's a great thing to celebrate, right in the face of the mob they pinched everything from.

Yes, it's that time of year that the entire media is on holidays and automated "Year in Review" fillers fill our airwaves and printed pages…um, okay, not so much the latter lately.
In between overs at the cricket, between legs at the darts, between legs at the beach, between Netflix binges (instead of cool eagle-eye slow-pan cityscapes), the highlights and the lowlights of last year are thrust upon us.
But not this year. 2020 is blending seamlessly into 2021.
Thanks, Donald Trump. Not since You Can't Ask That and Employable Me, has someone with serious mental health issues been so entertaining, or frightening.
