Typically ill thought out virtue signaling policy from the geriatric Biden. Thank goodness this is his last year in power.

Good to see the French honouring and protecting their culture. Lets hope other countries follow suit.

White guilt is so pathetic ????. Man up.

The EU is done. Put a fork in it. https://www.telegraph.co.uk/business/2023/09/09/europe-economy-stagnated-remainers-havent-noticed-brexit/

Is American finally waking up to the reality of the Biden crime family ?

Another geriatric US politician too selfish and egotistical to step aside and let new blood come through. I guess she still wants that insider information on stock trades. It's never enough for these greedy champagne socialists.

You think the solution to racism is more racism? You're clearly a smart fellow... ????

A bit off topic, but since you asked... Young and old? yes, the same. Rich and poor? yes, the same. Industrious and lazy? no, I'd give preferential treatment to industrious. able bodied and disabled? no, I'd give preferential treatment to disabled where required, assuming the disability is real. straight and gay? yes, the same religious and non-religious? yes, the same. Your racist calls for people to be treated differently and excluded from various groups based on their race is fooling nobody. It's strange how "progressives" always seem to want to move us back to the days of racial inequality.

I'd have thought Germany needs all the business it can get. It's not looking good for the "powerhouse" economy of the EU. https://www.ft.com/content/7ed06bf8-fe60-4127-b5fe-c8181a0ec8cb

How predictable ????. Although according to the absolute legend Sowell, I probably shouldn't be too concerned ????.

A very weak attempt to justify support for racist policies. Childlike in fact. ????. Instead of making puerile assumptions about someone you have never met, why not show a bit of maturity and intelligence and try to justify your support for these racist policies? By the way, more than half of all Australians share my view so you must have an incredibly low opinion of the Australian population. https://www.newshub.co.nz/home/world/2023/09/more-than-half-of-australians-oppose-indigenous-voice-to-parliament-referendum-poll-shows.html

I'm English. A Pom. What's it all about? Very good question. It's about identity politics raising it's ugly head to sow the seeds of division, as it always does. Giving "a voice" to certain racial minorities (but not to other racial minorities for some reason). Putting race into the Australian constitution. It's a racist policy. Even those on the forum who support it are too ashamed to admit they support it. Why? Because it's clearly racist.

The only dimwitted racists are the ones arguing that race should form part of the Australian constitution. The ones arguing that everyone should be treating equally irrespective of race (as I am arguing) are the non-racists. It's really not complicated. Try harder.

They already have a voice. The have the vote same as White/Asian/Black citizens have the vote. There are aboriginal MP's in Parliament. Your race card appears ineffective on this one.

You won't say whether you support it or not. So I conclude that you do support it but are too ashamed to admit it. Prove me wrong.

No surprise. Another Democrat judge ruling against Trump. I think I see a pattern here. https://apnews.com/article/2022-midterm-elections-new-york-lawsuits-manhattan-business-aaf76f04022a30965fcbab35e16e1a2e

Nicely swerved. Too ashamed to admit it? Can't say I'm surprised. It's pretty abhorrent.

Apology accepted. Thanks. Maybe you could follow my example and do something positive instead of pontificating on here all day? Just a thought....

Why not save me the hours of searching your thousands and thousands of posts of drivel to confirm what we already know. Do you support this policy? Yes or No Do you support positive discrimination in the US? Yes or No.

I lived in Australia full time from 97-98 and have worked there sporadically (average once a year) since 2003. It's one of the most racially diverse and tolerant countries I've ever been to. Race baiters trying to destroy that is pretty low IMO.

Been on it for years. I have planted over 300 large trees on my farm in Korat and grow over 25 different types of fruit and vegetables, much of which is donated to local people. All organic. What are you doing apart from trolling posts like the one above?

If you support building race into the Australian constitution, you support racist policies. You can clutch your pearls and virtue signal, and dress it up in flowery, caring, #bekind language, but that is what you are doing. You are supporting a racist policy. Simple as...

You might want to check out what is involved in mining for metals for your precious batteries. https://borgenproject.org/child-labor-in-cobalt-mines/ Recycling isn't as easy as your throwaway comment "Batteries are also highly recyclable" would suggest. It's an extremely complicated process even if the will is there to do it. https://www.science.org/content/article/millions-electric-cars-are-coming-what-happens-all-dead-batteries Of course, in many countries they won't even attempt the process and it will end up as landfill.

Do you understand the term "tends to follow". Here's a clue, it doesn't mean "always follows". But actually they followed the UK on that one. ???? Next...

You support for building racism into constitutions is well noted. I am glad you are clear on my disdain for identity politics and the racist/sexist ideology it promotes.
