#NewsBreakfast I remember when coalition were ranting & raving about “the cost to taxpayers” for MP travel to pass emergency energy bill relief laws but NOW the travel costs for a special meeting for them to argue with each other on climate denial is ok? #auspol #NetZero

“parking lots in South Korea with more than 80 spaces will be required to install solar canopies and carports. But, unlike similar laws that have been proposed in the US, this new law doesn’t just apply to new construction – existing lots will have to comply as well!” electrek.co/2025/11/02/n...
New national law will turn large parking lots into solar power farms
Starting this month, parking lots in South Korea with more than 80 spaces will be required to install solar canopies and carports.

The AFP has long had ambitions to be some sort of FBI, with elite investigators working to secure federal interests, including, in theory at least in these days of Donald Trump, the prevention of corruption, bribery and fraud against the state. @waterfordjack #auspol
AFP set to fight the devil among our children
The new AFP Commissioner, Krissy Barrett, would not be the first AFP Commissioner or statutory head to think that she can reinvent her job and its functions with the help of a savvy media unit.

#AfternoonBriefing can media please stop referring to the coalition like it’s a teenage relationship-using words like “breaking up”they are supposed to be a party of government not just some couple going on dates at the bowling alley. It’s deliberate way to minimise the veracity of the issue #auspol

Hate it when people do tv interviews via Zoom and they have-bad audio, use the laptop camera titled so it’s a close up into their nose, hold the phone with their wobbly hand or the shot is just a huge close up of their face. Networks must insist better #ABCNews #auspol #WeekendBreakfast

Good comment from Lowry Institute: "China has what USA needs and wants, processed Rare Earth Minerals, that even with the help of Australia, need years to fix". How long had I been saying this. It's one thing to have REM, it's another to have the capabilities and facilities to process REM

#NewsBreakfast packaged up a news report that Qld LNP are selling land acquired in Sth Brisbane to a developer including data on “rising homelessness” and “housing affordability” With comments like “it couldn’t come sooner” so, is this “development” going to be affordable housing? DOUBT IT #auspol

#NewsBreakfast why does ABC always call alcohol “booze” ? Do they think it’s making it sound less than what it is - a highly addictive, dangerous substance that ruins lives? #JamesGlenday

So is ABC or any media going to show us or spk to any Palestinians who are miraculously still alive after 2yrs of daily bombings by Israel? Seems pretty one sided at the moment. Palestinians wrongly held captive by Israel are also being released today, barely a mention.
