First NZYQ cohort member deported to Nauru under opaque deal
Australia could end up paying the tiny island nation about $2.5 billion over three decades if the more than 350 former detainees are successfully resettled.

Non nursing care (like showering, cleaning, meal prep, help to see GP) will be subject to a huge “contribution” by older people! Sneaky policy to transfer costs to pensioners and others on low income #shameAlbo
Today, older people across the country - hundreds of thousands of whom are on miniscule fixed incomes - will cop increased costs for their care and support so for-profit providers can continue making a buck.
How do I know this? The minister said so.

Is there an explanation for why Palestinians are "prisoners" and Israelis are "hostages"?
Is the implication meant to be that the Palestinians were 'criminals' being punished through imprisonment?

One Month Milestone for the MCS-Stroke Project

A change to ourNSW Planning system is being rushed through Parliament by Minns Gov with keen Coalition support as a ‘Planning System Reform Bill’ supposedly aimed to speed up housing approvals. They say. But it is widely pro-development of roads, mines & infrastructure.
