  1. .@PokieAct Maybe you should have read the comments before knee-jerking a response. You're slipping.
  2. .@PokieAct Surely you can come up with a more inventive lie than that, Paul. You're not trying.
  3. Abbott's opposition to the NBN started when he realized it didn't stand for "No, bloody no!!!"
  4. @bjtrim Yes, they were excellent :)
  5. @LesterDiamond28 Don't bother... he's just looking for a reaction. Seems to be all he does these days.
  6. Anthony Ball continues the Clubs Australia campaign to rewrite history on The Drum today. He is the reason true #pokies reform failed.
  7. Australia's online gambling review. Read my analysis bit.ly/JxGNLc then make a submission dbcde.gov.au/broadband/onli… open until June 25.
  8. @Saltysean So tell them. Submissions are open until June 25.
  9. @Kosmikray So many ppl want to ban this or that... with technology, it just won't & can't happen.
  10. @Saltysean People already are... the prosecution/prevention of overseas sites needs to go hand in hand with any local offering.
  11. @DarkMatterzine That sounds horribly familiar...
  12. @DarkMatterzine But online gambling (sport, casino games) is growing. The time to deal with it is now.
  13. @DarkMatterzine Pokies make $13 billion a year in Australia. Nothing else comes remotely close.
  14. @DarkMatterzine there are hundreds, if not thousands of poker machine apps.
  15. @DarkMatterzine oh they are ;) still the most damaging (for gamblers) & lucrative (for industry) form of gambling in Australia.
  16. When Howard Govt introduced the Interactive Gambling Act in 2001, the Internet was young & smart phones non-existent. Things MUST change.
  17. @DarkMatterzine I could be wrong, but I think he was a journalist. I know he was a Rhodes scholar; proof that common sense can't be taught.
  18. @DarkMatterzine He has said in the past that the NBN will lead to an explosion in online gambling. I don't even. #shakeshead
  19. I mean, if you're going to oppose something, at least *try* and understand what you're opposing.
