A little exclusive: Priscilla has been found! It has survived bushfires and floods and years out in the open after being abandoned - it's a heck of a story and I loved writing this theguardian.com/film/2024/ap…

The 30-year hunt to find the Priscilla, Queen of the Desert bus: ‘My jaw was on the ground’

Not long after the 1994 film became a smash hit, the titular bus disappeared. Where did it go? Who had it? And could it be recovered before it was too late?

Labor would've thought giving 85% of people a bigger tax cut (like the middle Australia this paper claims to represent) might have given them *some* cover. I can't imagine how outrage could be bigger in some quarters You'd never know most people were gonna be much better off

Does this mean all ABC employees can’t share info from @hrw? What if it’s about the treatment of Uyghurs in China or protestors in Iran? Does this rule exist exclusively for findings that are critical of Israel? Did this directive apply only to @antoinette_news and why?
