Yassmin Abdel-Magied to marry Yemeni high flyer, ABC to pay for the mosque wedding!

Yassmin Abdel-Magied and Carmen Miranda is there any similarity here? Apart from the fruitcakes on their heads. If Ms Abdel-Magied is really leaving Australia for the cultural centre of the world, Yemen, then I wish her all the best and I hope she finds a nice guy and settles down to married life.

Woman’s Day beats Mamamia to Fake News Central!

well I’ll be a monkey’s uncle; the kettle calling the pot black. Mamamia accusing Woman’s Day of fake news. There ya go. Is nothing sacred anymore? Will Mamamia ever learn how to behave? Of course there isn’t a celeb, even tinny ones like Johanna Griggs who haven’t been saved by the miraculous powers of medicine!

Raina Thaiday, is this a cover-up?

Raina Thaiday: This is a classic case of a let off. When women commit domestic violence the system works overtime to avoid women being convicted of that offence and the more serious sub-offence like murder, i.e. Forgotten Baby Syndrome (what a cop-out, after leaving your baby to suffocate in a sealed car.) Compare and contrast Thaiday−a break-up of her relationship with the father of her younger children (mind you, several fathers), conflict with others, financial pressures (hard to believe, given the welfare she’d be on with 8 kids), and on the fateful night, some of the girls didn’t catch the bus home, kills eight children. Verdict: unsound mind. With Robert Farquharson suffered from avoidant personality disorder and bouts of depression, and sought the assistance of a psychologist and later a psychiatrist to deal with the separation. Kills three kids; sentenced to 33 years.
