Absolutely disgusting but who wants to put the money towards cancer research anyway. Too much money is made from cancer treatments such as chemotherapy.

I am gobsmacked! Let’s say this space thingo comes off (and piggies might just fly), how about we give FREE tickets to everyone in the Labor Parties and all the Greens and every wokie in the country. It’d be a one way ticket of course and it’d have to be a pretty big space ship but getting off the ground won’t be a problem. There’ll be so much hot air inside it’ll just float off into the ether.

I honestly thought you were pulling our collective legs with this utter nonsense. But before replying I thought I'd better check. To my horror and incredulity you are correct! For the convenience of my fellow readers who also disbelieve, I attach a link to ABC News of the 15th of May. And of course, if it's on the ABC, it must be right! - https://www.abc.net.au/news/2024-05-15/breakthrough-victoria-37-million-world-view-investment/103839164

Great call-out James!!

These Labor politicians of ours are masters of monumental misfires; let’s hope the lot of them get elevated to space & beyond where we won’t be able to hear their screams…

Yes, transported on a one-way trip would be ideal!

What have the Victorians done to be punished with such a government?

A great piece of parody James. I guess one could say from ‘hell to eternity.’ Except, only a temporary reprieve to see the wonders of the galaxy, then back to this bankrupt Socialist state.

I have never had any desire to visit space and with a dodgy Victorian government involved - nope, no way , never. Snake oil comes to mind.

As a young person, my one desire in life was to be an astronaut, thw closest I got was the Air Force, but it was my ambition, the fact that I was hopeless at maths wouldn't deter me. I had an aunt who told me when I was 11 that I was too fat to be an astronaut - that hurt. I certainly have no desire now. And with the Vic Govt involved it would be very dicey

No need to worry Dianne - the Rapture is not too far away - your desire will be fulfilled and no need for an astronaut's attire! 1 Thessalonians 4:17-18 (NIV)

That is exactly my desire.

Is snake oil the new sustainable and effective aerospace rocket propellant?
