Razor gang to harrang Canberra

“Comment by Skidbladnir – So where is this argument going?”

might I be so bold as to suggest:

nowhere – China, Darkest Africa, God knows where, Greenland, North Pole, Outer Mongolia, Pago Pago, Pillars of Hercules, Siberia, South Pole, Thule, Tierra del Fuego, Timbuktu, Ultima Thule, Yukon, antipodes, frontier, godforsaken place, in no place, jumping-off place, nowhither, outback, outer space, outpost, outskirts, pole, the Great Divide, the South Seas, the boondocks, the moon, the sticks, the tullies

Where I work we can’t physically hire enough people to keep up with govt demand. And we hire by the hundred.

Your headline uses the not-a-word, Harrang.
(See top of thread)

I gave a roughly similar definition for harangue from memory as to that which you have now linked.
(My dictionary needs no upgrading)

I suggested the Razor Gang would do more than talk to us, and that the headline for this RiotACT posting was misrepresenting the article you originally linked to.
(If the razor gang was only going to harangue us, they would be a Ruddling Emotive Lecture Squad)

So where is this argument going?

Time to upgrade the dictionary

did someone say haggis hunting?

I pick haggis. Ok it’s not on the list, but I’d love to see somebody waving one about.

Bring on the Department of Administration.

“Harrang” is not an actual verb, or even a word.
Google only reveals it as a surname.

If you mean harangue, which is to deliver a lofty, serious, and emotive speech, I suggest the Razor Gang will do more than talk to us, rendering the headline wildly inaccurate.
