A #CommunityRadio station that sounds exactly like a commercial radio station, except each ‘advert’ is tagged with ‘station sponsor’ does not make a community station. They may be proud of their ratings, but what other metrics are used for success?

#jobsummit should consider the fact I've just been given a 100+ page document to 'fill out' with details of my experience and quals to train people in a sector I have worked in for 30+years. And in my own time, thank you. #overkill

Help me out- I’m helping a non native English speaker with their restaurant promotion. I say pics of dishes NEED a description. They are unconvinced. What do you think is best for getting Australian Anglos to at least sample - description or not with a pic ? #restaurants #food

There’s been a lot of discussion this week about the role of various players in the Morrison Ministry scandal.
Much of the discussion has focused on Scott Morrison’s actions in this unprecedented event.
But what about the actions of others in this?

Part of me feels sorry for #paulinehanson - to live a life full of ignorance and repeating bile and to miss out on so much. The other part of me simply despises her #AusPol2022

The city and area is still recovering 5 months later and a long way from better. I saw the pic and posted to a local Fb page.

You may not know but 5 months ago the town was wiped out not once but twice by the worst floods ever. The wall you are near is he flood level - the flood waters were 3.8 metres above the flood levee

Airlie Beach locals have helped more than 100 travellers who were left stranded after Jetstar cancelled a flight at the last minute.

Am learning to hate hearing the phrase ‘for operational reasons’. hearing it way to often. There goes a week of holiday. Two flights cancelled today. One last week. I know there are worse things, but

thanks for your articles in this week. FYI This is a screen shot of the Wilson river height graph at Lismore on Feb 28,2022. The day before the Y axis only went to 15m. I noticed the change to 20m that morning to fit the predicted rise.

Terrible pic but - but should I ask for these #lettuce leaves - That are garnish - to be packaged as takeaway? And sell them on the street?

I take a fair bit of interest in NSW State politics. But the recent ‘cash splash’ budget had been totally drowned by the #Barilaro debacle. So much for a ‘budget bounce’ for the next election. Bounced OUT OF OFFICE more like #nswpol #AusPol2022

In the midst of a national housing crisis, a tradie told me today he’s working on a $150million house in Sydney that features a “‘cigar breakout room’ about as big as your [2 bedroom] apartment”. Of course, I need a CBR now! #HousingCrisis

I hope the LNP mismanaged housing crises hasn’t spread to #Biloela and the Muruguppan family has a place to stay. #auspol #HomeToBilo

All respect lost. Bunch of middle aged Anglo commentary about #cannabis on what sort of conservative vacuum do you and producers live in? And mentioning heroin in the same phrase ? Fuck off! #medicalmarijuana

Opinion poll in @GuardianAus . ALP leads in all but 2 categories. Those rural areas has always baffled me. Australia’s often poorest areas with the least services actually support ‘conservatives’ who promise more of the same? #AusPol2022 #auspol #ausvotes

I wrote to @senbmckenzie on 29 March 22 calling for urgent help for people in Kangaroo Valley (KV) impacted by floods, landslides, closed roads & isolation. The Minister visited Gilmore on 8 April - still nothing. When will the Morrison Government help people in KV?

If money is taken from super to buy houses, what impact will it have on super fund earnings. Anyone seen / done any figures or modelling ? Will the LNP scheme reduce the performance of superfunds ? #aupol

That is perhaps the worst political interview performance I’ve seen since the onion eating incident. #abc730 #wordtsunami

Pleased I could remember my two words of Ethiopian for the taxi ride in Melbourne. ‘Salam’ (hello) and amaseganalu (thank you) hope peace comes there soon #Ethiopia

In Melbourne for first time in ages. My Ethiopian driver says cab licences now available for < $100? Used to be $500k. What happened to all that lost ‘capital’ value ? I haven’t checked but even so - impact of Uber et al.
