A lot of pundits and opinionistas condemned Mark Latham as immature and for being a head kicker, but I always liked him, not because I played footy with a bloke bearing the same name, but precisely because he is a head kicker.
And who can forget the best parliamentary slagging in living memory when berating Howard & Co for getting sucked into George Dubya's 'Down with Saddam' campaign by referring to them as " ... a conga line of suck holes"?
And how right/correct he and we who opposed the 2nd invasion of Iraq? .. in light of the fact Islamic State (Stalinism painted Islamic to sucker extremists) is Saddam's revenge, pure and simple.
When the ABC's Chaser/War on Everything/Glasshouse crew set up an effigy of whoever they were condemning at the entrance of Parliament House and offering exiting pollies the chance to belt the effigy with a nurf bat, Latham took the bat and belted the Chaser compaire.
These days he's a pariah for talking common sense ... like the Canadian Jorden Peterson, who profoundly illustrates the malaise of Westernised society when someone becomes a celebrity for simply talking common sense.
So on the topic of gender quotas, or for that matter racial quotas or queer quotas, his comments will resonate with the mainstream because he's condemning stupidity. These quotas make as much sense as making someone the Police Commissioner because they're Aboriginal, or Director of Emergency Services because they're in a wheel chair.
Quotas cause incompetence and incompetence breeds corruption because the incompetent are easily manipulated.
On over development, well he's correct but about 20 years too late. Over development and over crowding due to mass immigration is why I bailed from Sydney in 1998, although I'd planned it by buying a bush block in 1992. over crowding increases competition for pretty much everything from somewhere to live, hospital treatment, parking spaces or just room to move .. or walk your dog.
This competition for living space and basic services makes us more aggressive as a people/population.
Go nuclear? .. if he means for electricity supply, then he hasn't researched it adequately. The people are bitching about subsidies for flimsy renewables making the cost of electricity unaffordable ... well nuclear power is the mother of all subsidy scams. Nuke power is the most expensive method of boiling water ever devised, and there's no business case for nuke because it doesn't run without subsidies period. That's just for operating costs. On top of that you've got massive construction cost and almost infinite waste storage costs ... it's a dud! .... Oz won't go nuclear because we're too tight arsed to pay for it, and I'm glad for it.
If go nuclear is a metaphor for cracking down on Islamic induced dramas? Couldn't agree more, but I'd go the whole hog and just ban Islam outright. There's no logical reason to accommodate this thorn in our side. The Left wing apologises for their anti-social barbarism because they recognise Muslims want to destroy Westernised civilisation so use them as proxy vandals.
Wanting Trump to win? ... Well I predicted against consensus opinion (here and everywhere else) that Trump would win, and that belief was founded on listening to what the ordinary people said, rather than what the parasite class told us what was proper and correct. And personally I favoured him over Clinton because he has the potential to abate fifth column/left wing sabotage of Westernised civilisation and democracy. Most left wingers are latent communists, and communism is pseudo-monarchism, thus the "Chairman" is just a king with an alternate title.
Someone's got to stand up to China, and so far Trump is the only one with the balls to do so.
Those cretins who (in the last 30 years) let China develop financially and industrially without developing politically should be skinned alive.
As for Latham himself? I hope he gets elected.
If Donald Trump is so close to the Ruskis, why couldn't he get Vladimir Putin to put novichok in Xi Jjinping's lipstick?
