As I said you prefer your own news outlets.

Calling The West & Channel 7 "news outlets" is probably the funniest thing you've ever said on this forum.

That's like calling McDonald's & KFC fine dining restaurants.

It's good to know you have a sense of humour though.

I wonder how many of them are LIEBOR voters are in that lot.

But seriously, we should be spending our time ridding ourselves of these people.
I remember, about 40 years ago, I worked at AWA in North Ryde.
Several busses pulled up at the front and rear gates.
A huge contingent of AFP officers entered the building and worked their way through the people working there.
They had obviously done their homework, because they knew how many and who they were.
Collected enough to fill 3 busses and when I asked what would happen to them, I was told they would be flown out that night.

All their properties, cars and bank accounts were seized, those that had children would meet them at the airport.
At the time,o thought it terribly harsh.
Until found that most had several jobs, avoided tax and some were even claiming welfare.

A couple managed to get to stay, for reasons I was not privy to.
But it left a huge hole in the workforce.

Personally, I would rather send back the dole bludgers and the ones on welfare we are now importing today.

It's almost like human nature is calling out for a war to bring back some semblance of reality to humanity.

Former soldier Ben Roberts-Smith granted bail over alleged war crime of murder offences

War veteran Ben Roberts-Smith has been granted bail after spending more than a week in custody over allegations of war crimes.

The 47-year-old was arrested at Sydney Domestic Airport last week and charged with five counts of the war crime of murder, alleged to have occurred in Afghanistan in 2009 and 2012.

His lawyers have told a Sydney court on Friday the case was unprecedented and involved "uncharted legal territory", arguing it was likely to take years, with "many twists and turns".

They said the fairness of the proceedings would be compromised if their client had to defend himself from custody.

In opposing bail, the Crown highlighted the "gravely serious" nature of the charges, citing the risk of flight and the risk of Mr Roberts-Smith interfering with witnesses or evidence.

Local Court Judge Greg Grogin found that it would take years before the matter was resolved.

He granted bail and said the concerns raised by prosecutors could be mitigated through strict conditions proposed by his lawyers.

Mr Roberts-Smith has not yet entered pleas, but he denied the allegations throughout a defamation case which he lost against Nine newspapers.

That civil test is different to the criminal test now before the courts, where prosecutors must prove allegations beyond a reasonable doubt.

The Victoria Cross recipient appeared via video link in a Sydney court from Silverwater Correctional Complex, wearing a green prison jumper.

He sat quietly and listened to the bail arguments as his parents, Len and Sue Roberts-Smith, sat in the front row of the public gallery in court.
