Sky News:

"Good riddance to a bad man".

#####

Indeed.

It is a little early for that if you are still able to post here. Sky news has never been a useful or reliable source of news so it is not much of a surprise they jumped the gun with your obituary

Please explain.
You are a horrible person. That is my take on it.

Sounds like he's trying to get me banned, while at the same time hurling personal insults at other forum members here that would see him banned in most other forums.

I do not want you banned, Bambu. I want to see you caught without your papers and sent to an alien detention gulag never to be seen or heard from again. I just want you to be treated with the respect and consideration you clearly deserve.

Exactly why I'll never be leaving Australia's shores.

Nauru will be fine as your final destination.

Nauru is great.
Beautiful Pacific island.
Swimming, fishing, lazing around on sunny beaches, just like the asylum-seekers who paid people smugglers did in detention.
They were pictured behind the wire fence, bemoaning their horrible situation...when but feet away the gates to their compound were wide open and they could come and go freely in daylight hours...returning at dusk.
They were warned not to pay people smugglers because they'd never be settled in Australia, but they refused to listen.

SkyNews Australia is a great source of news.
You probably don't like it because the opinions of most of its hosts don't agree with yours.
Rita's segment "Lefties Losing It" for example.
Not sensible people on the left of politics with wisdom and reasonable, workable, policies and ideas....but the ones with policies and ideas that are "bad news".
Like closing all the coal and gas fired power stations in a mad rush to renewables when the renewables are clearly not yet ready to replace them and won't be for a very long time.

Daily Mail;

Putin could pound UK with missiles he's using to blitz Ukraine

The retired British Army officer estimated that an attack would involve Russia firing over the missiles in waves of 60 to 90 at a time. Speaking to The Sun, General Barrons (Pictured) warned that the UK would currently be unable to fend off such an onslaught. He said: 'The UK does not have the air and missile defence that Ukraine has, for now. We've not needed it. The sort of missiles that fall on Kyiv could fall on London .

What on earth has the UK been doing...obviously living in a paradise of complacency.

If Russia can do that to Britain, think what China could do to Australia.

Think what Russia could do to every country in Europe that has no shield, likely most of them.

Britain is supposed to have nukes, but are they old and maybe out of date.
Does it have nuke powered and nuke armed subs, more than one or two.

If it does, it should warn the People of Russia that if their missiles start landing in Britain, then Russia will cease to exist.
Where's Trump, he will maybe tell them.
