There's a veiled threat in there. Saying they don't want to cut services & that the cases are really old, sounds like "So hey, let's just stop payments for these old things so we can do these other good things now". Nope. You can't dodge accountability.

From $50 rentals to burying the dead, this island governs itself Twenty years ago, Cape Barren Island was handed back to its traditional owners. Today's children are proof of the life-changing power of that act.

Single frame. Barnaby exiting a room from which a leg kicks, a hand flipping the bird, another throwing a tomato, an akubra hat and a beetroot flying, and β€œBUGGER OFF!” and β€œGOOD RIDDANCE!” Barnaby in melodramatic pose looking back says β€œDon’t try to beg me - I’ve made up my mind.” In front of him, Pauline Hanson in burqa (dress, legs and high heels showing) arms outstretched, saying β€œCOME TO MAMA!” - eclipsed by Gina Rinehart behind her, long white dress, same pose also saying β€œCOME TO MAMA!”

Engineer. Teacher. Postie: The neo-Nazis who rallied in Sydney Those who gathered on Saturday include a personal trainer, an English-as-a-second-language teacher and a former bar manager who is facing DV charges.

'A senior member of the neo-Nazi group which held an anti-Jewish protest outside NSW Parliament is a South African national who works for a major engineering firm that has held contracts with the Australian Defence Department and NSW government.'

Civil engineer identified among those who attended Neo-Nazi protest Around 60 men attended a protest at NSW parliament organised by the Neo-Nazi group National Socialist Network on Saturday. Without masks, it gave the ABC the opportunity to identify some of them.

If you’re Aurecon, and this guy works for you, what’s your play here? Fire the guy, but on what grounds? Or keep the guy, and be seen to work with neo-nazis.

Not enough power. Not enough water. Probably about 1.5 ongoing jobs for locals. And the Department of Defence giving away Australian territory with an incredibly sensitive ecology, both land and marine, to billionaires, without transparency? What could possibly go wrong?

Tony Abbott’s warped story of Australia Tony Abbott’s history of Australia is a version that sanitises the worst effects of colonialism and immigration policy, and leans into the destructive doctrine of Trump.

β€œFar from adding to Australia’s colourful story, Tony Abbott has whittled it down to an outdated, destructive doctrine,” writes Grace Tame. satpa.pe/RbORuEO

In case you're finding it hard to keep up, this court hearing was related to the allegation Lehrmann stole French submarine secrets in the days before his dismissal back in 2019

It's not about his current rape charges in QLD, or his car theft charges in Tas, or his 'defamation' appeal or . . . .

New government data confirms gas exporters continue to pay no tax

β€œIt beggars belief that a company like Santos can spend a decade selling almost $50 billion worth of gas and not pay a cent of tax on it," said @rodcampbell.bsky.social. #auspol

I write to each of mine once a month and enclose $5. A personal letter addressed to them is amazing these days. Sometimes I'll enclose a photo of my dogs, or chooks. BTW. I've not got a reply letter to date. They text or ring. Lol.

Stronger Medicare, affordable housing, and secure jobs with fair wages. These are the things worth fighting for.

Thank you for inviting me to speak about our shared values at the UK Labor Conference today, Prime Minister Starmer.

When John Howard was Prime Minister, he participated in many International Democracy Union events overseas from 1996 onwards. He even was elected the chair in 2002 while Prime Minister so attended its annual forum overseas every year as Prime Minister. The sheer desperation of this #auspol beat-up
