The Anit Military ABC Bohemian Collective

[silverfaun]

Many at the ABC see nothing wrong in reporting unfounded allegations of brutality by naval personnel towards asylum-seekers. If it wasn’t true, it is the kind of thing that ought to be true.

Many of us are sickened as we watch the ABC run its own left agenda to the detriment of the rest of the viewers who don't hold that side of politics in any regard.

The ABC will continue on this bent because Turnbull is of the left, wanted to join the Labor party but was rebuffed, so having no inner core beliefs he gravitated towards Conservative politics but his heart isn't in it. This man is a true apparatchik of power just like Rudd.

PETER Coleman once wrote about bohemians who met at Sherry’s coffee shop in wartime Sydney to consider “more important things” than the war.

Nowadays the bohemians are organising the Opposition Leader’s diary and have decided that there were more pressing matters to attend to than welcoming home our troops in Darwin after their longest ever war.

Fortunately Seven Network’s Mark Riley persuaded Bill Shorten to change his mind. Riley’s no-show Bill story aired on Friday’s 6pm news. By 6.30pm the bohemians had managed to find a flight.

Three hours later Shorten was wedged in an economy seat adopting the conventional Jetstar position; his knees pushed firmly against his chin.

Wittingly or unwittingly, Stephen Conroy’s attack on the integrity of a three-star general and Shorten’s diary omission have taken Labor into dangerous territory. The party may be falling out of step, not just with the military, but popular sentiment.

When Labor split over conscription during World War I, prime minister Billy Hughes knew better than to succumb to the “Wobblies”, the Left-wing radicals inspired by the anti-war Industrial Workers of the World.

The Wobblies preferred the “whiff of anarchist bomb plots and folksy songs” to “winning votes and civilising capitalism”, writes Tony Moore in Dancing With Empty Pockets. Hughes took the decisive step of declaring the Wobblies illegal.

Nick Cater seems to have become an expert on the right's re-write of australian history in a very short time.

when did he flee the UK anyway ?  he has a nerve turning up here just to tell us what he thinks of our past of which he knows nothing.

A bit like McTernan? How dare he

whoever that cater is, your'e obviously correct in your evaluation of his knowing nothing, the Wobblies were the IWW, Wobblies was just a nick name. Maybe Mr cater let his "Anit" get in the way.

 he supplied somewhat unsuccessful advice on media, cater is attempting to push an odd version of our history he knows little about.

 cater is a gifted writer , but fiction is his forte'

They also reported Scott Morrisons unfounded allegations regarding th e violence at Manus island - was that equally reprehensible?

No need to pretend dumb, gary. It's not like you've never made a typo.
