‘If we are victorious in one more battle with the Romans, we shall be utterly ruined’
One of the first posts ever written on TMR was Tony Abbott’s Prime Ministerial Obituary.
Malcolm Turnbull doesn’t need a similarly written obituary: he’s done a perfectly good job of writing his own.

If you had a limited amount of water and could use it on a tree’s roots or leaves, which would you choose?
Even Forrest Gump could probably tell you that his mamma always said that we put sprinklers on the ground for good reason. Yet, despite this, our Federal opposition is determined to commandeer precious resources away from the roots of our economy and sprinkle them over the leaves.
Merry Christmas Millennials!
Because I’m such a nice privileged white male, I’ve decided to give you some free advice. You may detect a common theme.

Those were new movements challenging an establishment, while this election is simply a case of voters letting the other monkey have a go regardless of the cost. Indeed, you’d have to go back to 1959 when West Australians last let a State government last more than 10 years in power.
I recently agreed to attend a local networking event.
Part of the promotional material included a quote from Robert Kiyosaki – the author of Rich Dad, Poor Dad and notable rich guy among other things.

Almost immediately, I realised that what had crossed my mind was based almost entirely on mainstream news headlines which I had vaguely remembered. Indeed, when typing ‘Kiyosaki broke’ or ‘Kiyosaki bankrupt’ into Google, the following results came up:
