What is great about Aussie Pols is they pull no punches with respect to political corrrectness. they call a spade a spade.

Another example of why not to "sex up" the title of the article.

Clicked the link,found this groundbreaking piece of news


HEAVWEIGHT rocker Meat Loaf has issued a special invitation to major fan Mark Latham to see his Sydney show tonight after the Federal Opposition Leader said he would rather remember "loaf in his heyday".


Meatloaf: performing with the MSO


Latham has suggested Meat Loaf, at 56, is past his use-by date, even though the eccentric rocker has sold out his Australian tour with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra.

The politician, who nominates Bat Out Of Hell as his favourite album, said in December he was reluctant to watch his hero in action.

Well, it probably would have taken ten pages to list each on individually.

New Guinea has more cultures and completely different languages packed into one area than anywhere on earth.

For the people still following their original religion, the folks in the next little valley over probably have totally different animist beliefs. Hundreds of different "indigenous" religions.

indigenous beliefs (WTF?) 34%

Headhunters and animal worshippers, but some more sophisticated local religions as well. What is really meant by the term is whatever religion the people had before the Europeans (or Arabs in the case of Islam) came.

PNG is, like Australia, a British protectorate and its gun control laws are, by design, a mirror image of those in Australia.

I'm sure the Aussies would take issue with the notion of them being a Brit protectorte.

However both PNG and Australia (and New Zealand) are part of the British Commonwealth, and are constitutional monarchies, with the monarch being the King or Queen of England. PNG was a protectorate of Australia until 1975.
