It's known that terrorists have said that starting bushfires is an excellent means to attack this country. Whether the media or those in power will tell the public if any of these fires are a work of a lone wolf or terrorist cell, well, I doubt it. Climate change sounds better than terrorist attack. And it's easier to raise taxes for fighting climate change than for fighting terrorism.

Tim Yes it's a cracker mate! Basically an awesome Aussie farmer telling the so called "leader of our nation" to Go Get fooked! Say if this happened in Amerikwa the same guy would have his door kicked in by arsehole cops and he would be either "disappeared" or sentenced to 50 years in a US Federal Prison for some cooked up charge! Instead the country cheered him on and told our Prime Minister to shove his lies back up his arse!

Generally CFS are quiet achievers who just get on with the job. On a different note: Army personnel on Kangaroo Island (Including Kiwi's) have been doing great work cleaning up farms and the road network, distributing emergency live stock feed and putting water back into the farms dams that were sucked dry during the fire fighting effort. Pretty funny watching them swarm into the local food places like plague locust at the end of the day. They're going above and beyond to keep cash flowing through these establishments in the absence of tourists! The CH47 crews are having fun carting hay. Nearly choked on my sandwich when I saw the first one fly over at low level with a cargo net full of round bales slung beneath. But at $5000+ per hour to run perhaps using trucks might be more cost effective.

>>>>>>>>>>>> Dude..... Don't hold back..... Let it out... Say what's on your mind........ (tease, tease... I don't blame you under the circumstances)
Yes... In the US some ding dong would say something on camera and if they were considered right (conservative, or not proven as left, liberal) they would get consequences of some kind.. If proven left, liberal, antifa, likely nothing would happen...
Here we would talk about it with one another, but not say anything to get reprimanded for it..
Problem is will they remember all this when it comes to vote again..... ?? I sure hope so, as I personally try to not get mad, but get even when I feel wronged...
But that's just the SOB I am.. <<<<<<<<
Yes.. When the fire crews were working here. When they came to the local truck stop, dinner, you name it for a break, they were sent to the front of the line by everyone there.. As well as fire fighters, this went for the crews replacing hydro lines and road surfaces burn back to gravel..
This is how it should be...
