Time to emigrate: Hugh Mackay to construct a better Canberra

Last week, a truly horrifying government policy was announced:

The ACT Government has announced it will reduce long- term unemployment, target poverty and tackle childhood health and education over the next nine years, through the implementation of Building our Community - The Canberra Social Plan, issued yesterday.

Whenever I hear government and community together, I want to reach for my shotgun. The last thing a community needs is more goddamned government. Huge, wasteful spending on feelgood programs. Oh joy. There was more.....

The Government has defined seven social priorities to be addressed over 10 to 15 years - economic opportunity for all Canberrans, respect, diversity and human rights, a safe, strong and cohesive community, improved health and well-being, and to lead Australia in education, training and life-long learning.

This means we can looking forward to "hate speech" laws, loony lands rights claims, crime-ridden public housing projects, some kind of anti-fast-food laws, and lots more spending on pretty much everything.

Fucking great.

Ghastly as that news was, what came later was infinitely worse:

It will also establish a Community Inclusion Fund, in a bid to attack the causes of poverty and exclusion, to be implemented by a Community Inclusion Board chaired by social researcher Hugh Mackay.

Oh. My. God.

Hugh Mackay, the genius 'social researcher' who's stunning insights into Australian life resemble high school bog graffiti: young people like to hang out in groups, the Americans will kill us all, people who don't vote Labor are selfish nazis, terrorism makes people worry quite a lot, and mobile phones are really, really popular.

This snivelling wimp, this blithering lefitst conspiratorial imbecile, is going to have a position of political influence in my city, to going to help determine government policy and the conduct of everyday life.

Oh Great Satan, get me the fuck out of here.........

Future ethnic cleansing

Kim Du Toit brings us a report of disturbing rumours among South Africans of an ethnic holocaust once Mandela dies.

You can bet that if it happened, the left would turn a blind eye, the rest of Africa would applaud and Kofi Annan would announce how very, very concerned he is.

Fearless Islamic Warriors

I saw that the brave Iraqi "resistance" have slaughtered 44 unemployed job-seekers. Must be part of that whole "sticking up for Iraqis against the evil invaders" thingy.

Pilger, Fisk and The Green Left Weekly are no doubt already figuring out reasons why Israel and the USA are responsible for this.
