Another one to add to the "not a drag queen" list of people who harm children.
The Liberal Party is the more right-wing of our two major parties here in OZ, and the only time I've ever heard of the defendant was when he got upset at my local council for the Murdoch-invented non-crime of 'cancelling Christmas', so there you go 🤷♂️
@DyDave Australia. Our toilets flush counter-clockwise and Liberals are Conservatives. Ya gotta love it!🤣👍
Yeah, it's a bit like that, eh? 😂
@DyDave I must go there someday. Seriously, if for nothing else than to walk around going
Honestly, you'd be surprised how similar it is to Canada. Hotter, and with weird animals, yes. But the people are more similar than not.
I lived in Montreal until I was 10, and that made things seem *very* different when we came here, but I've learned from trips back to other parts of Canada that it's much closer than I ever understood.
See: Australian Rules Football, which is our substitute for hockey because we don't have ice 😂
@DyDave That's so awesome. You are very fortunate my friend.
When we moved here, my dad negotiated a deal with the oil company he worked for (you may remember Golden Eagle or Ultramar if you're anywhere they had gas stations) that we would get the price of a first-class trip home to Canada every year, and the same 'hardship allowance' that employees in Indonesia got.
Then, he meticulously found the cheapest flights, either around the Pacific or around the world, so we could see new things on our way to Canada every year.
It was fun 😊
@Tacitus_Kilgore
That's a very solid list 👍
Of those, I've never been to Egypt, but my mum has shown me so many pictures (mostly of cats) that I feel like I have 😂
Oh, and we didn't sail to Normandy, but rather caught the old hovercraft from Dover to Calais, and my dad drove us there in a little Renault.
