    ccmfans.net is the Central Coast Mariners fan community, and was formed in 2004, so basically the beginning of time for the Mariners. Things have changed a lot over the years, but one thing has remained constant and that is our love of the Mariners. People come and go, some like to post a lot and others just like to read. It's up to you how you participate in the community!

    If you want to get rid of this message, simply click on Join Now or head over to https://www.ccmfans.net/community/register/ to join the community! It only takes a few minutes, and joining will let you post your thoughts and opinions on all things Mariners, Football, and whatever else pops into your mind. If posting is not your thing, you can interact in other ways, including voting on polls, and unlock options only available to community members.

    ccmfans.net is not only for Mariners fans either. Most of us are bonded by our support for the Mariners, but if you are a fan of another club (except the Scum, come on, we need some standards), feel free to join and get into some banter.

Philby lost faith in communism after his defection and died a miserable alcoholic in Moscow.

If communism is such a good system why dont refugees flock there instead of away from it?
Nothing stopping you from renouncing your citizenship and adopting Chinese since you are such a fan.

Mainland China has so much in common with nazism., its no wonder that you like it. It is a racist, belligerent, nationalist threat to the world's peace. Its a one party totalitarian police state that imprisons and executes political opponents. It persecutes ethnic minorities, uses slave labour. and is responsible for the deaths of tens of millions of its own citizens in the pursuit and maintenance of power in the hands of a few.

It ignores international law. It steals intellectual property, denies its history, interferes in the elections of sovereign nations, weaponises trade, spies on and blackmails Australian citizens, bribes politicians. and beggars vulnerable nations with debt.

You are a classic example of one who has embraced 'double think'

Orwell was a socialist but was not blind and Animal Farm was a satire of Stalin's USSR.

While not a fan of whataboutism, with the possible exception of stealing intellectual property this could be describing the US and many other countries.

You can't help them HS. They are beyond Salient thought. Automated like Pavlov's dog. Literally beyond any type of discernment.

Election called this weekend or has the cyclone stuffed up Albo plans

I think he has cornered himself by canceling budget meetings and wants to jump on the rate cut

I thought that seemed to be the plan but can't see it happening now. He might go for a slightly longer campaign and call it for May 3 on the week before the budget is due. Has to be a min of 31 days so. Then the question becomes what are you trying to avoid telling us by not having a budget.

Budget is due in March. The traditional May budget isn’t a thing because they can’t have the budget clash with an election apparently

Could wait a week or two before calling and avoid the budget but have a longer campaign than possibly planned

Chinese have worked out the US in chaos and have called him out.
Prepared to fight any war he wants they have told him (trade or otherwise they said)
Reckon there might be the odd Chinese sleeper agent in the States?
FOC might have already f**ked this up.

Unlikely to call this weekend (disaster relief - not campaigning) for April 12 or for an election for 19th April (Easter Weekend) or 26th April (Anzac weekend).

Budget due March 25. He can call it for May 3 on the weekend before the budget but that which would make for a 41 or 42 day campaign. Traditionally not a good thing but given that current MSM frames every question as 'Peter Dutton says' a longer campaign where he can make his points rather than have to speak to every Peter Dutton thought bubble may be a good thing this time.

Of course if the budget is looking good he can, deliver the budget and campaign on it before calling for a 17th May election.
