MOKBEL MILLION BEST BET EVER

TONY'S TOADIE SNITCH NO WINNER

The million dollars to be 'potentially' paid to one of Tony Mokbel's past employees for giving police the final piece, apparently, to complete the puzzle for his conviction and incarceration is a clever investment by the Government. The Mokbel issue aside, the Government has an atrocious record when it comes to protecting witnesses for whom they assure anonimty, safety and income. Reality is, unwritten, these people are walking corpses. It was admitte...

NEW WAY TO RORT MONEY
I wonder what was in the bank's and major grocery stores like Woolworths in Balaclava's minds when they decided that any transaction under $30 does not have to be verified with a Personal Identification Number (PIN). I went in there today and as it turned out my transaction was for $29.54 and I placed my Mastercard in the slot as one does, and pressed credit at which the girl serving me asked me if I wanted cash out, and when I said no she grabbed my card, extracte...

WILKIE’S POKIE LICENCE MUST BE TRIALLED

Toorak Times is fully supportive of the club industry, even in light of perceived social injustices. If anything the whole gambling industry should be devolved back to purely club based venues, non profit organisations, removed from private ownership other than licensed casinos, no matter how big or small. My mother's cousin is Len Ainsworth, Aristocrat, and as you might imagine during Jack's days in Kings Cross in the '40's and 50's and '60's he h...

ECONOMIC RATIONALE WILL KILL VICTORIANS

_{PICK THE 10 DIFFERENCES IN THESE PICS}

My chest heaved and my heart slumped to hear that the Liberal State Government has feed us another line of crap in regards to hospital beds.

The health system issues are those that Victorians worry about most and it has me stumped why whenever we get the Libs back in control one of the first areas where they bleed dollars from to balance their budgets for reasons of prerceived reponsible...

Reclaim Your Democracy.

http://occupymelbourne.org/ Demand an end to corporate influence over your politicians. It's time they started representing the 99% of the population without enormous wealth and political influence, who suffer the social, economic and environmental consequences of corporate greed. Inspired by the actions of those striving for democracy in North Africa and the Middle East, and similar demonstrations throughout E...

MANDATORY PRE-COMMITMENT FAILS TO REDUCE PROBLEM GAMBLING



The Federal Government’s support for mandatory pre-commitment on club and pub poker machines has been dealt a massive blow with revelations that the problem gambling rate could rise by as much as 60% if introduced in Australia.

A study of 3,000 people in Norway, which is the only country to have mandatory pre-commitment on all poker machines, found that the current rate of problem gambling has increased...

http://www.facebook.com/home.php#!/p...?id=1723340224 Anyone that has known me for any length of time on a personal level would also know my mate Digger, Andrew Olsen. It is hard to express grief for a man that lived his life his way, usually up in the hills in South Gippsland, one of the most able and cleverest I have ever met, I called him The Great White Hunter's Younger Brother! We spent many hours fishing and philosiphising, he was famous amongst friends for his many "Diggerism...

<sub>Tell us Rupert what makes you so sad...no, tell us!!!

WHAT A HOOT</sub>

Are we seeing a dynamic shift in the targeting of the allies of the Establishment, moving from the arena of turning on their miltary puppets, like Saddam and Osama, and getting all morally upset about Rupert's intelligence ops tapping 9/11 victims phones? Disgusting, yes, but you cannot tell me that Murdoch hasn't been feted by the Men in Black over the years for his staunch delivery of support ...

_{DON BURKE pic ABC}
CAN OF WORMS

Channel TEN's new show Can of Worms is a gem. It has been a very good start and the numbers should reflect that.

It was very refreshing to hear Don Burke demonise political correctness, it was fantastic to watch the gormfully precious Jessica Rowe go all sqeamish, wriggling on her prissy twat whilst Don told it as it should be. I won't say, as she may deem it offensive, but...methinks there is something inserted somewhere keeping...

Although the Green's are lauding this day as the end of the fossil fuel era, where we as a nation set out sights on renewable energy resources, it certainly sends a pall over the employment future in the Latrobe Valley. Tony Windsor was cock a hoop about the benefits of Tasmania's future given they have the carbon friendly hydro dam, who woulda thunk that this demonised dam of the '70's would be a saviour of the Noughties, great news! He also made another salient point...most of the jobs genera...
