SCHOOL FIRES DISCIPLINARIAN. STUDENTS PROTEST

Haircut High The chairman of Trinity Grammar says the deputy head was fired because cutting the too-long hair of a student was “inconsistent with community expectations in this day and age”. He seems incorrect: "Students protested the dismissal of Mr Brown and chanted "Brownie, Brownie, Brownie"."

 "This seems in the mood of the times. The moralisers on high face a revolt." Bolt

Yes, Bolt pretending he's a Liberal and not a wowser, in fact, he's pretending to be an outright leftie. He doesn't mention the kid who had his hair cut disagreed with his parents and didn't want the Deputy Head sacked. That constitutes a revolt in a family like Bolt's

IT'S DIFFERENT WHEN IT'S KATE WHO GETS ATTACKED

What more would governments do if FM radio stars also lived out in suburbs where African gangs invaded homes or Lebanese gunmen shot them up?: "A notorious crime-ridden and anti-social Melbourne rooming house has been shut down ... [after] radio host Kate Langbroek .... received bruises in an attack by a 'crazed' man."

"What more would governments do if FM radio stars also lived out in suburbs where African gangs invaded homes or Lebanese gunmen shot them up?" Bolt
Bolt is a true exceptionalist he looks for the for the unique incidents that reflect conservative outrage the exceptions that prove what he says doesn't, in fact, exist as a general rule. Here he's found it in StKilda. However for all his efforts to have us believe the Gatwick is the centre of Melbourne Crime and Dandenong is the centre of African gangland. Newspoll shows we don't believe a word he, Peter Dutton and Matthew Guy have to say. Newspoll is Bolt's centre of gravity when it comes to Australian politics yet here he's trying to tell us they get it all wrong. What can you expect from a media guru who doesn't know what day it is? Truth Bolt lived in Malvern a centre of White Collar Crime and Tax evasion that cost us far more than anyone in the Gatwick or Dandenong do. Yes, those celebrities do tend to live in the crime belts of Australia don't they?

Newspoll round-up: Labor leading in Victoria and tied in New South Wales; populists dominate in Italy

 This poll will be a major disappointment for right-wing media that have campaigned strongly against Labor on the gang violence issue. Despite this campaign, the Liberals only have a five-point lead over Labor on law and order, a conservative-leaning issue. Other issues are likely to be helping Labor.

Politicians should rely more on science, less on populist gut feelings

These days we are seeing more donor-based policy than policy developed through evidence or randomised trials.

'Change is coming': Sampa the Great wins the Australian Music Prize

 AUSTRALIAN MUSIC PRIZE.
 The Birds and the BEE9 has an openness to the future. It's not turn-up music, it goes super deep. We'll still be playing this 50 years in the future, you and your kids will be, too."

Here's Bolt he just goes for the elitist forms of culture and totally misses our representative forms doesn't he. The greatest Australian Tenor in Bolt's mind doesn't sing the greatest Australian music and more often than not in a language we relate to or begin to call our own. Bolt didn't even know he was here and thought he was in the EU. Bolt you are a lost and such an Un-Australian soul. A Europhile telling us we don't belong here but he does. The funny thing is even the Dutch would tell this guy to piss off.

OUR GREATEST TENOR RISES

I am cross I didn't realise Stuart Skelton was in town for concerts until too late. He's not just a good bloke but on the way to becoming Australia's greatest ever tenor. In fact, he's probably there already, with major debuts this year at La Scala and Covent Garden and a return to the Met. Watch.

'If it was happening in Melbourne there'd be outrage': Spike in fines for Indigenous jobseekers

 

Participants in a troubled Indigenous work-for-the-dole scheme are being fined more than every other jobseeker in Australia. Meanwhile, the NT Government disappeared $2 billion dollars allocated to the Territory's Welfare system. While Andrew Bolt whinges on the money spent not the Stolen money Media silence: NT Govt caught stealing $2 billion from Indigenous ...

GIVE TRUMP CREDIT

Barack Obama let Kim Jong-un get more menacing. But Donald Trump took him on  - threatening to destroy him, frightening the world into imposing tougher sanctions and now extracting an offer from Kim to give up his nuclear weapons in exchange for security guarantees. Yet Fairfax carps: "Trump too inexperienced to negotiate with 'cunning' Kim."

Bolt actually follows the Fox Sinclair line of Trump's a genius.
1)Trump was more surprised than any one that he won the Presidency
2) He's 4 time bankrupt that hasn't ended any business relationship with an ounce of honour
3)He simply has a record of paying lawyers to clean up the mess he leaves behind 
4) He mathematically turned his inheritance from his father into an $8billion loss had he just put the money in the bank and he dropped further down the list of the ultra wealthy having been made President.
5) He's set the record in being regarded as the most dsliked President of the modern era
6) He hasn't filled  the positions required in the White House and those he's fiiled have seen a record walkout.
7) 33% of his days as President has been playing Golf
8) And Bolt has stolen a victory for Trump which he had nothing to do with a meeting arranged by the President of South Korea. We are waiting for for Trump to do what he does best Screw it and then deny it ever happened
