      <description>&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;As the protest that was supposed to have started last Monday the 10th &amp;nbsp;seemed to have been a huge failure &amp;nbsp;it now seems that they are all going to try and make it this Monday the 17th in this child like school yard protest.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;It will be wonderful, not a single luvvie will be posting their denials of reality &amp;nbsp;or their brand of bitterness if they can all stick the protest that they failed to stick to last week.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;&lt;A href="http://community.ebay.com.au/topic/Community-Spirit/Reminder-Thread/600159899?start=0"&gt;http://community.ebay.com.au/topic/Community-Spirit/Reminder-Thread/600159899?start=0&lt;/A&gt;&lt;A href="http://community.ebay.com.au/topic/Community-Spirit/Reminder-Thread/600159899"&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;/A&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;T&lt;STRONG&gt;he Reminder Thread Jun 11, 2013 08:50 AM&amp;nbsp;&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;&lt;EM&gt;Kilroy had that wonderful suggestion of abstaining from posting on the ridiculous proliferation of repetitive political threads for a week.&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;&lt;EM&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;&lt;EM&gt;As of&lt;STRONG&gt;&amp;nbsp;TODAY! &amp;nbsp;&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;(That today was last MONDAY the 10th &amp;nbsp;and what a week of protest it has been all last week..... NOT)&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;I would like to thank Karen post #181 on the above thread as she has made a suggestion that none of us thought of in our weekly meeting. (yes we have a weekly meeting between the posters on here)&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;&lt;EM&gt;&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BLOCKQUOTE&gt;&lt;TABLE border="1"&gt;&lt;TBODY&gt;&lt;TR&gt;&lt;TD&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;&lt;EM&gt;Does it include all political threads, or only the spam ones?&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;&lt;EM&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;&lt;EM&gt;What punishment applies? &lt;span class="lia-unicode-emoji" title=":grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:"&gt;😄&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;&lt;EM&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;&lt;EM&gt;What about threads that start normally and turn to politics?&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;&lt;EM&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;&lt;EM&gt;What about people who don't agree and continue bumping the threads?&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;&lt;EM&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;&lt;EM&gt;You do realise they're planning a bombardment ;\&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;&lt;EM&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;&lt;EM&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;&lt;EM&gt;&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/TD&gt;&lt;/TR&gt;&lt;/TBODY&gt;&lt;/TABLE&gt;&lt;/BLOCKQUOTE&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;&lt;EM&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;Thank you Karen I will be sending out a memo to the group management team suggesting we act on your great suggestion..&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;&lt;EM&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;&lt;EM&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;&lt;SPAN style="font-size: 10pt;"&gt;I wonder if it will be a freak free no political post week.... &lt;span class="lia-unicode-emoji" title=":slightly_smiling_face:"&gt;🙂&lt;/span&gt; &amp;nbsp;&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;SPAN style="font-size: 10pt;"&gt;wouldnt that be wonderful....&amp;nbsp;&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;So will childrens group protest hold, will they all band together and all support each other in their school yard protest or will some break ranks and what punishment will they hand out to any one that breaks rank....&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;Should be a fun week......&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;

      <description>&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;I dont think the protest is working very well.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;Whats the thoughts of the people still posting.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;I notice a fair few of THE GROUPS main players are posting ona &amp;nbsp;variety of political threads.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;So what punishment will their leader the Martini drinker hand out, will her bully enforcers in THE GROUP ignore anyone that doesnt comply to their demands?&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;What punishment can she the Martini drinker dish out&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;Ever heard of "free/open speech" KIH ?&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;Even members like TRBAG and NW etc have the right to post within the Board rules. If you do not appreciate what is written, debate&amp;nbsp; the various authors/comments or even&amp;nbsp; join the Ostrich Club.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;I would like to add that it should be in the interest of all Australians to to have political awareness but sadly some think that it interferes with their&amp;nbsp;important football, weight loss, talent quest, soapies and highly rated forum threads such as " Why does my vacuum cleaners smell of dust?"&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;Politics and the people who are our law makers should be under scrutiny at all times otherwise the&amp;nbsp;rum amok like any child.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;They are the ones&amp;nbsp;who decide our economy, the taxes you pay the services you get in return for those taxed and a plethora of other things that impact and impinge on our lives.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;People should at least be exposed to&amp;nbsp;politics and politicians who govern and those in opposition.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;People have the choice of either&amp;nbsp;accepting or rejecting their awareness of politics.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;Those who reject that awareness&amp;nbsp;accept what is fed up to them and are oblivious what is fed up to them.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;Regrettably apathy reins supreme in Australia.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;My advice is for people to get up off the couch and open&amp;nbsp;their eyes.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;

      <description>&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;You too have the choice of opening or not opening a thread and the choice of either accepting the information or rejecting it.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;In everydfay life&amp;nbsp;I see many advertisements and&amp;nbsp;I resist them, easy peasy.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;It is the abilitiy to chose that seperates the me from the sheepies &lt;span class="lia-unicode-emoji" title=":slightly_smiling_face:"&gt;🙂&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;

      <description>&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;Just think, if it was not for aware people keeping an eye on the political antics such as that of Conroy and others in the past you may not be enjoying the freedom of expressing your opinion as you are doing now.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;There are many countries that became lax and allowed their leaders to slowly relieve them of their choice and end enslave them because they were to apathetic to&amp;nbsp;pay attention to what was happening, but its ok there is still a large percentage here who will protect the sheepies interests &lt;span class="lia-unicode-emoji" title=":slightly_smiling_face:"&gt;🙂&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;What is past off here as political awareness is nothing more than self indulgent egotism &amp;amp; one upmanship on both sides of politics&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BLOCKQUOTE&gt;&lt;TABLE border="1"&gt;&lt;TBODY&gt;&lt;TR&gt;&lt;TD&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;I would like to add that it should be in the interest of all Australians to to have political awareness but sadly some think that it interferes with their&amp;nbsp;important football, weight loss, talent quest, soapies and highly rated forum threads such as " Why does my vacuum cleaners smell of dust?"&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;Politics and the people who are our law makers should be under scrutiny at all times otherwise the&amp;nbsp;rum amok like any child.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;They are the ones&amp;nbsp;who decide our economy, the taxes you pay the services you get in return for those taxed and a plethora of other things that impact and impinge on our lives.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;People should at least be exposed to&amp;nbsp;politics and politicians who govern and those in opposition.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;People have the choice of either&amp;nbsp;accepting or rejecting their awareness of politics.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;Those who reject that awareness&amp;nbsp;accept what is fed up to them and are oblivious what is fed up to them.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;Regrettably apathy reins supreme in Australia.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;My advice is for people to get up off the couch and open&amp;nbsp;their eyes.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/TD&gt;&lt;/TR&gt;&lt;/TBODY&gt;&lt;/TABLE&gt;&lt;/BLOCKQUOTE&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;geez poddy, why does my vacuum smell of dust? I nearly chocked on that, it was so funny.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;Other than that, your post is as ever, common sense over stupidity &amp;amp; apathy.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;The head in the sand of the sheep following the bully sheep is frightening. I&amp;nbsp;I truly believe these morons should not have to vote, get rid of compulsory voting &amp;amp; leave the sheep playing in the ignorant pen.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;I think I'll be fairly safe on here &amp;amp; won't get bpeed because the&amp;nbsp;luvvies are all clinging to the life raft of the HMAS Labor as it battles to stay afloat until Sept 14th.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;What a total failure this has been from the protesters, most of them are posting on various political threads and supporting each other and active on the forums....&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;The sheeple that followed so faithfully the protest group.... your leaders have failed... your protest has failed..... &amp;nbsp;although the bullying will go on from THE GROUP&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
