Because its a load of shit. Hamas needs to be eliminated. That is a military goal which will incur a lot of unavoidable collateral damage. Hamas are scumbags who will make it as bad for Palenstians as they can, because Hamas are like this, they need to be eliminated. You should get a job working fo...

Only a simpleton would look at what Israel are doing and think 'i f#cking hate jews'... People like that are racist scumbags. I, however, do hate what Israel are doing. And feel very strongly about the plight of Palestinian civilans. That DOES NOT make me anti-Semitic. Similarly only a simpleton wo...

it now takes 13 years to save a deposit for the average UK property (up from three in the mid 1990s), It sure as fudge does when you’re spending half of your income on lifestyle choices.

Thing is, when evidence is provided (eg the poster on page one with the sister and dog and impossible to buy a place she wants in sw London) then some cretins dismiss that as irrelevant or an old fashioned view .

It’s almost as if you completely missed point number 2 in my original post. You even quoted it. And then when I asked for evidence of the third point you basically said it was the vibe.

But for those interested in more than just broad remarks, the evidence suggests younger generations are actually better spenders than older generations.

There is no study to say that wearing a parachute when jumping out of a plane is safer than not wearing one. Some things are just so blindingly obvious even to the dullest of dull wit kant that it usually doesn’t have to be explained. There is loads of evidence to support using a parachute. What th...

On a completely serious note, Al Baxter. He is universally thought of as the worst prop to ever play test rugby, (although possibly has the best shitting face of any pro sportsperson) but that was built on a couple of years when he was thrown in the deep end too young after Ben Darwin's broken neck ...

Nobody is arguing that house prices haven’t gone up. We are saying that home ownership is still very attainable for most people in spite of the narrative that “it’s impossible” Sheesh.

Probably a direct correlation between consumption of pineapple lumps and propensity for violent crime. Pineapple Lumps are Aussie as now - they're in all supermarkets.

But violent suppression of the Palestinian people is not going to allow for a long term solution, its discussed in some of the articles I posted. To “destroy” Hamas will require severing the support it receives from organisations such as Hezbollah, and from Iran. But it will also require a long-term...

I find it a bit hypocritical for Australians to criticise Israel for their self defence when Australia went to war in Iraq for 6 years.
