SPEAK SENSE
I was mortified when I brought the Sunday papers on my morning Sunday shop to discover the Sunday Telegraph again trying to create fear in the community. SPEAK ENGLISH the headline reads re: speaking Arabic in jails in NSW.
Now don't get me wrong I am not about to start supporting terrorist but come on, not allowing people to speak their 1st chosen language? So no Chinese, no Spanish, no Greek, no Italian also?
This is ending a week of hilarious columns from Bolt, Devine and even today Devine was outraged a family first style ad was not to run on SBS during the Mardi Gras broadcast. Come on lady diversity is fine but alright campaigns like saying we are right and gay families are wrong. Nick off.
And labelling Miriam Margolyes a potty mouthed lefty and having yet ANOTHER crack at the ABC, was just a treat, what to read it and die laughing, here is the link. Now Miranda I have a large number of lady friends and tit is a word that rarely comes out of their mouths, fuck, the C bomb and other rather strong words, yes and guess what it's 2015 not 1950. Women don't stay at home and do housework they have careers, and some are even comedians and guess what swearing at times (if used well) is actually funny.
The problem with being conservative and having "traditional values" is that the world are life are ever changing, if everything was to remain in 1950, we wouldn't have the internet, we wouldn't be able to travel as easily, cheaply and freely as we can now and education would still be less inclusion.
For the educated newspaper/online news reading folk, the Daily Telegraph/Sunday Telegraph is more like a car crash, it's hard not too have a look into the shit they are pedalling or what Rupert thinks is important. And that's the other problem Rupert Murdoch is 83 and should be in a nursing home, instead some dill set him up on Twitter.
And back to my initial line of attack at the Sunday Telegraph, racism is alive and kicking in Australia, all you need to do is YouTube Australian Public Transport Racism. Fucking frightful. And headlines like this do not help. The simplistic nature of the Daily/Sunday Telegraph means this reaches the less educated and fortunate in our society creating a brain washed and frightening group of Murdoch followers.
So read this rag but also get online, find the real story and hell even watch the ABC news, I know it's "left leaning" but they sure as fuck report the real stories and not the beat up of the month. To News Limited staff again, shame on you.
