Bravo Louise. I add this comment in addition to Paul - your ability to work with victims to report difficult and tragic events to help us understand the truth and depths of the story is without peer. There is no text book, no precedent for this reporting. Truly in awe. Thank you.

My latest for @TheEconomist: AI writing is taking over politics. 10% of what was is said in Parliament is now AI-drafted, per Pangram. Yet more in the House of Representatives, or in Australia and Canada. Link: economist.com/britain/2026/0

An apt day to remember that Dolly Parton once recorded a cover of Stairway to Heaven - and, in defiance of every moral law in the universe, she absolutely owned it.

Why has the price of ethanol surged over 20 cents? (Ref: NSW Government fuel check app) It’s made in Nowra by the Honog family’s Manildra Group and already significantly subsidised by consumers under the NSW Governments Ethanol fuel mandate.

Straight talk by the Canadian prime minister about the rigged international system. Refreshing.

There is nothing wrong with eggplant, an underestimated vegetable (unlike potato which has a million dishes- or used too) Enjoy!
Repeat after me: Dutton will not lose his seat. We've been hearing he will election after election and he's never come close. It's just Labor spin. Will eat some eggplant if I'm wrong. dailytelegraph.com.au/news/n

So this is the issue @MarkDiStef - Liberals see progressive women as the PROBLEM (not the SOLUTION) so no. They are not regretting anything because in their universe, these women are evil, they are the victims, the voters are duped
Replying to @MarkDiStef
The Liberals will rue the day they let the Teal movement flourish because some of their best potential leaders are them. It’s existential.

Has anyone checked on John Hewson? How is he taking the news that he no longer ran the worst ever Liberal campaign?

This is so sad for candidates who paid like $1,000 nomination fees for preselections, the work they did and the members who participated in this brutal process. @DonHarwin did exec spend a million hours endorsing them? Or what?
The Liberal Party has missed the deadline for nominations for council elections. Dozens of candidates have not had their paperwork lodged and will not be eligible to run in September. Canterbury-Bankstown, Camden, Georges River, Shoalhaven, Lane Cove, Northern Beaches impacted.

Albo crossing Anthony Pratt off the White House dinner party list and replacing him with Peter Vlandys kind of sums up our political choices 🙁

Being a moderate Liberal essentially means being the doormat people wipe their feet on when they walk past the standard they accept.

In 40 years of politics I have not experienced a nastier piece of work than Mark Latham. Honestly in a league of his own.
After being sacked as NSW One Nation leader last week, today Latham quit the party, alleging it misspent tax payer funds. The detail lost in the headline is the misuse of tax payer funds is alleged to have taken place in 2019 and 2021. I guess it wasn't an issue for Mark then?
