Aged Care Experts: People age better when they stay in their own communities.

Residents: Can we build small co-housing units for older locals to stay connected?

Council: Zoning doesn’t allow "multi-residential" dwellings here.

Hey Chris Minns. This is the kind of stuff you should be enabling, instead of trying to hamstring e-bike usage!
You need more than a 250w bike to do this sort of stuff!

NSW Is Paying Millions to Log Forests That No Longer Exist A decade of losses, collapsing timber yields and looming koala protections reveal the truth: NSW native forest logging is financially and environmentally unsalvageable.

NSW Forestry Corporation’s native forest logging division has become the most expensive loss-making habit in the stateβ€”an operation so deeply unviable it makes the Titanic look nimble. The latest Annual Report confirms another $32 million burned last year.

It is disturbing that Australian media focus on the US, Ukraine and Israel allows Labor a free pass to destroy the environment, increase fossil fuel extraction and give jobs to their mates.

Labor’s become the party of symbolic progress: flags, diversity panels, and feel-good language while the economic screws tighten. Cultural gestures up top, neoliberalism underneath. It’s liberal identity politics dressed as a workers’ party.

Australia’s Christmas double standards on Palestine As Palestinians face another winter of displacement and bombardment, Australia celebrates Christmas while ignoring its own obligations under international law. If recognition of Palestine is to mean anything, the government must act – not look away.

As Australia heads into Christmas, people in Gaza face another winter of displacement and bombardment β€” and the federal government remains silent. Recognition of Palestine means little without action grounded in international law. #AusPol #Gaza #Palestine #HumanRights #InternationalLaw #MiddleEast

Australian scientists have improved our lives & increased national productivity.

So why is the CSIRO being forced to shed staff again?

@mattgrudnoff.bsky.social argues that cutting research jobs undermines the government's productivity drive. #auspol @ebonybennett.bsky.social
