"Speaking of the dark reminders of the reality of racing, concern was raised for winner Half Yours after viewers noticed blood coming from his mouth. Images...clearly showed the gelding bleeding as punters and owners and trainers celebrated around him."

We don’t have a gas shortage, we have a gas export problem. Santos are gaming the system and pushing up the price of gas paid by 🇦🇺 households & industry.

A new study published in Nature Climate Action finds Woodside’s Scarborough gas project could cause 100s of heat-related deaths & exposed 500k people to unprecedented heat.

Govt can’t claim climate leadership while approving projects like this.

The Albanese govt’s first term was the second most secretive on record.

Rather than changing their ways, they’re doubling down and tightening our FOI system to make it even harder to get information. Not a single expert or member of parliament outside of the Labor party has backed their new bill.

The fact Wong thinks she can just snark her way out of this is a sign of how normalised the relationships between politicians and lobbyists have become.

Like, of course the PM shouldn't be president of a registered lobby group that sells corporate members access to politicians? No shit??
Independent Senator David Pocock and Labor's Penny Wong clashed in Senate estimates yesterday over whether the Parliamentary Sports Club could be considered a lobby group, as reported in Crikey last week. The club is registered as such, and lists Responsible Wagering Australia as one of its clients.

Today’s ABC report shows fossil fuel interests are spreading misinformation to delay climate action. From fake studies to AI content, the risks to trust and democracy are real. I’ve called for truth in political advertisement for years. We need legislation before the next election.

Australia: Brett Sutton admitted some pandemic rules were “probably never necessary,” like wiping groceries, avoiding handshakes or droplets spread.

He said, “Through a 100 years of understanding infectious diseases, we overemphasised surfaces or droplets, when the reality was, it’s in our breath”

Both harm & participation are ⬆️ - especially in younger Australians.

Yet the Albanese Govt continues to ignore the work of their late colleague, Peta Murphy, by not implementing the Murphy Review recommendations in full - including a full ban on gambling advertising.

Justice Rangiah in his own words in Lattouf v ABC penalty decision.

The broadcaster has been ordered to pay $150,000. I was previously awarded $70,000 for hurt and distress.

ABC has spent in excess of $2 million on legal fees.

The real cost to Aunty is immeasurable.

Most likely the snub, if it's really that, is payback for in joining 155 other countries in recognising a Palestinian state at the UN but perhaps it's just another example of Trump's short attention span. We're not wrong to keep remembering, Israel has progressively stolen the Palestinian homeland.
