Depends on how much thought is put into their design and construction.

not much useful about the swear phrase nanny state
David Leyonhjelm can go and piss on his own head and stop wasting everyone’s time with his liberty bullshit.
There.. I’ve said it.

He is part of that set of libertarians who oppose collective action for environmental protection and are against penalty rates and minimum wage etc… basically upper middle class weirdos more interested in philosophy than in improving the world.
Same for booksellers:

dammit

I haven’t actually heard anything from this person, but assuming that dv’s assessment is accurate, this is the exact opposite of what I understand by the adjective “liberal”.
On the other hand, observing his date of birth, maybe everything he says is intended to be a joke anyway.

That sort of language is not acceptable to the nanny state.
Isn’t he the one that wants everyone to own shotguns?
“What I want to do is go back to the way Australians used to be,” Senator Leyonhjelm said

Do you have vision of he performing this trick? I would like to see him pissing on hi own head.
DL does favour marriage equality, is opposed to racial profiling by police and government access to metadata wityout a warrant etc.
More likely she is a librarian…

few of the things mentioned involve insurance, the insured, and insurers
a lot of these sorts of problems would simply disappear if I were to be made Emperor of Australia

I think an NRL player got into trouble for pissing into his own mouth so assume the top of the head is quite possible.

A lot of our work is Pool fencing, so I guess you could ask if I’m biased .
But what possible reason could you put forward to support doing away with AS1926?

What happens to the super of a dead bastard?
The baby boomers are starting to drop off the perch, do the kids get it as a wad of cash?
either the beneficiary you nominated in your super form or whoever you’ve nominated in your will. i guess.
I’m more worried about upper storey windows having to conform to a particular child-safe type, or be fitted with bars.
Imagine trying to enforce legislation like that in Europe.
>ok, pool fences, good or bad?
Fencing a pool off is not that much different to fencing your larger yard/block in many cases (the practical aspects), in fact the pool area can be fenced off as a section of the larger yard (like with shrubs etc).
Why is fencing a pool area of any lesser importance than the reasons you might fence anything.
Of course they can be a little inconvenient, opening the gate, terrible lot of work that.
Thing is M&D, brothers, sisters, grandparents (or whoever) after a drowning have to wrestle with the loss for years, whereas a fence might take half a day for professionals, M&D probably can do it over a couple of weekends.
You know, the police have to come around, the ambulance, they don’t want to be there. And it ends up in the news, parents etc don’t want that, ony adds to their troubles. The media though are keen to ride any sort of misfortune.

Might be easy for you, but other people don’t use barbed wire.

Just a joke, which you obviously did not get.
The next law to be implemented is wearing a seatbelt when on the toilet
This is what happens when you don’t

>Just a joke, which you obviously did not get.
sorry, i’d just come from imagining the grief of a mother that had lost a toddler
I got the barbed wire jest, and thought if you saw my 85metres of 2m high colourbond you’d think farm boy did it with a laser.

Ok then, just keep an ear open for an angle grinder.

don’t have a pool, thought about putting an old bath in the ground and having fish, but sometimes young kids are here, so couldn;t be bothered with the worries

Appointed recipient of wad
Spouse
Kids
Next of kin
In that order, I think.
