Tickle v Giggle is a gender case with a farcical name and even more farcical outcome, says Prof James Allan. The Australian Federal Court has just declared that legal fiction and not biology makes someone a woman.

Labour plans to build 1.5 million new homes in five years. That's 821 per day, 34 per hour. No chance, says Sallust. And when this turns into another broken promise, it will all be someone else's fault, naturally.

The furore over Kirstie Allsopp's decision to allow her 15 year-old son to go interrailing is ridiculous. Sending teenagers off on adventures is a great way to build confidence and self-reliance.

HIV carriers not welcome in Australia

category international | racism & migration related issues | other press author Friday April 13, 2007 11:29author by nano Report this post to the editors

The grotesque and disgusting, pathological, lying coward Prime Minister of Australia, John Howard is cutting a comical figure as he flounders from one gaffe and blunder to another. Jumping straight from the ‘cubicle’ of support for a known racist and questionable character (Alan Jones) to the primitive, superstitious behaviour of stigmatising individuals suffering manageable maladies and preventing them from entering the country. Howard’s recent gesture of banning individuals with HIV is reminiscent of the all-male, ruling priest class of the Old Testament who banished women experiencing their menstrual cycle. Menstruating women once struck fear into the hearts of ignorant and primitive men – the primitivism of it all! Howard is exposing some extremely disturbing gender issues and phobias with his latest unenlightened attempt to manipulate Australian society.

John howard has been following the all-white all male aryan supremacy of the
other coalition of the willings - (Blair/Bush/Aznar/Burlusconi) for quite a while.

He has been using Malay air-space to launch sortees on Timor- Leste.
People have seen the war-planes flying over.

It does not matter to the white supremacist that thousads will die to achieve the cultural highs
of Oz society which include ;- Nicole Kidman, Neighbours and all the other colonial tat
that revolves around our air-spaces.

Howard has to go like the rest of them who have used everything in their power to delineate
that white is right- my arse. It is colonial abuse and it has its malignancies in ireland too.

The corruption of post-colonial abuse and torture will be exposed but a lot of our society depends
on it and we must begin to look honestly at ourselves for once- we perpetuate it by being blind
to it when it happens in Ireland.

If you can get over the usual hysterics ( as per the original poster ) and read the facts on the situation while not hyperventilating : http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/asia-pacific/6551245.stm
as a policy this seems to make sense - both to protect public health and also on an economic basis.

I cant think of a single logical argument for wanting to increase the risk to public welfare.

He is a war criminal who openly supported the destruction of Both Iraq and Afghanistan.
He is illegally using Timor-Leste as a colony.
He is responsible for murder.

The people of Australia should be aware that they are living a corporate lie and
that the fear he plays on which is racially based is abusive to the indigenous communities
and the ordinary Australians who just want to live in peace.

John Howard is a war criminal.
He is illegally utilising Malay air-space to fund and create a divided society in Timor-Leste
so that he may live off the division.

No media from the west go there, all the reportage of murder and human rights abuse
is from survivirs. They will tell everything.

it is about time someone opened the books on the Howard regime and made him face his
criminality.
*Iraq.
*Afghanistan.
*Timor-Leste.

Then Blair- is long overdue. the malay have indicted him and bush for War-crime.
Looks like Cherie wont be SC over the Malay courts way for some time.

I mean come on. Be honest. Tip toe gently around the hormones. Maybe something good will come of this. I've been arguing for genetic testing of people who carry obesity genes for years now. I don't think it's fair that a couple who have the Harney thing should be allowed adopt a child who doesn't. Imagine what it does to that poor kid - forced to sit on the sofa stuffing junk food and trans fats in its gob watching telly.
Couldn't we start screening people at the airports of Erin?
Sorry. but you're going to put too much of a strain on our water filtration systems....
