    So, it seems that when a #StateGovt disagrees with a #Court decision, it can just enact new #Legislation to contermand the Courts. That’s straight out of the #Trumpian playbook. A #Fascist response to the #Jurisprudence when the outcomes are unpallatable to #Mates in the #MiningIndustries. Where is this #Americanisation of Australia to stop? What other means will the #Rich use to syphon more public funds and dues to support their #StateTheft ?

  2. England doesn't have #StateGovts. Yes they have issues but so do #Australia.

    When one thinks it over, a lot would fix itself organically if we removed #StateGovt and replaced them with #LocalGovernment.

    One thing that would fix itself is the need for a real voice for local #aboriginalCommunities - such a voice would come into effect by default as a result of not only recognising the land's #AboriginalHeritage, but importantly by transitioning some powers to Local Government.

    We distinctly asked our local state rep, "why not just not do the project that will tear out hundreds of big #trees to add more #road lanes we don't need?"

    All they said was, and this is dead pan mind, "It doesn't work like that."

    The #twoPartySystem is literal #deathcult.
