( Me at my place )
I am coming out loud and proud and declaring the
following:
1. I am an Aussie white bloke of European
descent!
2. I am heterosexual!
3. Although non religious I tend to believe in the
so-called Christian values/belief!
Sir Mike's Comments

PM Tony Abbott & Rose Batty " The 2015 Aussie Of The Year ".
People it is always regardless who is awarded what honour a very proud
moment I believe on the
Aussie calendar to watch the various Aussies that because of their various
activities get recognised for such and which are presented by the current Prime
Minister at the time along with an appreciative audience and a full TV and media
coverage.
This year it was Rose Batty the Advocate for "Violence Against Women" who
was elected the
" The 2015 Aussie Of The Year ".
Rose Batty only some year ago while attending some midweek sporting
situation with her son Luke where they met unexpectedly her estranged husband
and Luke's father and who was known to have a mental disorder - and I gather
unknown to the Mother police warrants out for his arrest.
Although Luke's father had only weekend visiting rights and as such was not
really allowed to see his son during the week however Luke loved his father for
all his problems and I gather asked his mother if he could go over a see his Dad
and after his Mother agreed he went assuring her it would be ok.
However it wasn't because Luke's father in a fit of rage hit Luke first
with a cricket bat then proceeded to stab him in front of his young team mate
the police were called but the Father would not allow anyone near Luke and after
threatening the police with a knife they were forced to shoot him and he later
died in hospital and Luke died also!
It was after many enquiries into the tragic circumstances of Luke's death
that Rosie Batty decided that what had happened to her and Luke must not now
happen to anyone else and started her campaign of " Violence Against - Domestic
or Otherwise - Women " which she in the name of her dead son Luke worked
tirelessly to bring to the publics, pollies and authorities in generals notice
that in Aussie alone it is estimated that 1 - 5 women at some time or other in
their life are threatened with physical violence and Rose Batties continual
mantra was and is:
Quote " The Powerless Deserve To Be Heard " unquote.
Kathy Teflon Bill Shortens Alleged Rape Victim.
Now in my view the heinous crime of rape of a women must be up there and
very close to the act of murder when being judged by the law of the land because
I gather the Psychological effect on the women concerned is very dramatic and
life long felt and can be life - in the normal sense of the word -
destroying?.
Therefore as the heinous crime of rape is definitely a violent crime
against women I wonder if Teflon Bill Shortens alleged rape victim Kathy is some
what hopeful that with a now powerful women and " Aussie Of The Year " like Rose
Batty in her corner that she might be able to open some doors for the likes of
Kathy to get her day in court ??
After all I believe that if Rose Batties slogan of quote " The Powerless
Deserve To Be Heard " unquote applies to anyone it must surely apply to Kathy
especially considering the sort of bloke Kathy is up against who must be the
second most powerful pollie - behind the PM - like Teflon Bill a Union &
Federal Labor Opposition Leader the alleged rapist??
Teflon Bill Shorten the alleged rapist & Union & Federal Labor
Opposition Leader.
I wonder if Teflon Bill ever meets our current " Aussie Of The Year " Rose
Batty and Rose brings up the matter of the alleged rape of Kathy that Teflon
Bill will refuse to discuss it with Rose??
Surely not even our media especially the ABC could refuse to report
that??.
Mark Scott AO - ABC's MD
Mind you the way Teflon Bill seems to have his foot firmly on the neck of
our media especially
the ABC I guess anything is possible??.
However if your happy with our pollies acting like a bunch of " Looney
Tunes " characters with our PM Tony Abbott charging all over the place as " The
Road Runner " looking for a political safe haven and good old Teflon Bill " The
Coyote " trying to catch PM Abbott with his typical smart arse " One-Liners "
then don't whinge when you discover that what you thought was a cartoon turns
out to be political reality!.
Sir Mike Howe. but you can call me
Mike!
