Farrer byelection: One Nation may well win Sussan Ley’s seat – that would be terrible for all of us Smart Liberals believe the coming Farrer byelection could be a two-horse race, with neither horse wearing Liberal or National colours. That would be bad enough. What would be worse, for everyone, is i...

Niki Savva on how Farrer is shaping up to be a two-horse race between One Nation and independent Michelle Milthorpe.

(In her view, this leaves the Liberals at a crossroads: should they put One Nation last as they once did, or become “One Nation Lite”?)

Dr Monique Ryan launches campaign to name killer heatwaves after climate polluters Following another sweltering weekend in Melbourne and throughout southeastern Australia, the Independent Federal Member for Kooyong, Dr Monique Ryan, has launched a new advocacy campaign to name killer heatwaves after the companies responsible for fueling dangerous heat. Quotes from Dr Monique Ryan, Independent Federal MP for Kooyong: “Extreme weather events like Black Summer, Cyclone Yasi and the Lismore floods are seared into our memories. But heatwaves, the climate hazard responsible for more Australian deaths than floods, storms and bushfires combined, remain a silent killer. “Extreme heat strains every system in the body. It stresses the heart, destabilises diabetes, worsens respiratory conditions, and intensifies mental health crises. When temperatures rise, so do emergency department presentations. Heat kills, and it’s time the Albanese government did something about it.” Dr Ryan’s campaign also proposes naming extreme heat events after the companies responsible for producing coal and gas that, when burned, drive hotter temperatures. Dr Ryan: “Fossil fuels are the leading cause of climate change. They contribute to longer, hotter, and more frequent heatwaves. “When it comes to climate hazards, people act faster when they immediately grasp what’s at risk. Declaring a Category 4 ‘Heatwave Santos’ or ‘Heatwave Woodside’ would be more salient than communicating a ‘temperature spike’. “We’ve seen this with tobacco: when the causal link was accepted, public policy changed and lives were saved. To tackle our most deadly climate hazard—heat—we should start by calling it what it is, and by asking those who profit from it to own their share of that harm.”
