Australia is going to sell uranium to both India and Russia. This is rather objectionable as Russia is again trying to assert its military authority. India also cannot guarantee where Australian uranium will end up.
Mmmmm.
So with these deals all but inked, it is now time to face the reality that if Australia is going to sell it, we must then asssume responsibility for its safe disposal. This is why we should, as a matter of urgency, start construction of a nuclear waste dump.
I would suggest the seat of Bennelong is perfect for this poisonous material.
Or we could leave it in the ground, forgoing short term profit for the sake of a healthier planet.
Madam Tussauds has shipped some wax dummies to Sydney for the APEC conference.
I do wish they could have made Janette a bit more life like though.

Thank God for border security, ASIS, ASIO and the Defence Signals Directorate.
Where would we be without them? Fucked, I think. Yes, fucked.
Without all this law and order palaver, the APEC conference would have been but a flicker in the eye of little John, George Jnr would be safely ensconsed in Washington, and the good people of Sydney would be able to walk the streets of their city without fear or favour.
So today, impressed as I am with all this increased security and stuff; I am proposing a permanently armed paramilitary force to patrol the streets of our major cities and towns. This will ensure that once Presidents Wu, Bush and Putin fly home to their heavily fortified residences, Australia will be as safe as a safe thing locked in a bank vault.
I understand there might be some criticism, and that we might struggle to get around our cities, but by God we will be safe.
“What’s that Skip?”?
“Brownshirts?”
“No Skip, it is just professionslly trained Howard Youth walking the streets to make us feel safe.”
New South Wales police have arrested Chas Liccardello and Julian Morrow from The Chaser television programme for running a fake motorcade through the streets of Sydney and into the heavily fortified green zone.
Pathetic.
Obviously, their sharp wits were considered to be a security threat to John W., and his equally moronic brother-in-war-crimes, George W. Jnr.
Once Australia was free and had a sense of humour. Now we are living a neo-fascist state and are just overly sensitive.

Australia’s worst ever Prime Minister, the lamentable John W. Howard, must be suffering some sort of power-induced blindness as he appears to be the only leader in the West who cannot see how the war in Iraq has turned into a bloody disaster of dead and maimed civilians.
On his flying visit to Iraq, even George Bush Jnr, architect of the greatest foreign policy fuck-up since World War I, started to speculate that his government may start reducing its exposure to Iraq’s bloody civil war – the one the Americans started.
But here in Australia we see things differently, with Prime Minister Bonsaii claiming it would be ‘objectionable’ for the Australian Government to do so.
Well no. A staged withdrawal of troops in Iraq is not objectionable. What is objectionable is the ongoing slaughter of civilians, which now sees 77,000 people pushing up daisies (http://www.iraqbodycount.org/).
In the 1960’s in Australia, that poor prime ministerial swimmer Harold Hold pledged Australians were ’all the way with LBJ’. Now, nearly forty years later we find ourselves in the similar position of let’s ‘Keep the Push with Bush’.
Our leaders have blood on their hands that will stain their corrupt souls forever.
It has cost the Australian taxpayer $2.8 million dollars to redecorate the Sydney Opera House for the one day leader’s summit. We have also spent $170 million on security and $109,000 on Anne Fullwood’s two and a half month stint as spokesmouth.
These are scandalous amount of money which could possibly be better spent on opening a hospitalsor providing food aid to developing nations.
But as long as George W. Bush and Co are sitting around a bespoke gum tree and Huon pine table, then I guess that is fine. Goodness me, we couldn’t expect him to bring the Presidential card table, now could we?
