Quite disappointing. Gone is a key reason I bought Golden North products: to support the north. A smarter move would to have operate both Laura and Murray bridge. www.abc.net.au/news/2025-07...

The Trump Sh*t Show proves that the USA democratic system of government is broken. Unlike with a parliamentary system, the country cannot easily remove the leader. The impact for other countries is that when the USA folk choose poorly, it is for a meaningful length of time and the pain will be felt.

I never had this belief prior to 2025 but I am now of the firm view that Australia must have a nuclear weapons capability. It is naive to believe that we have allies who will protect us. Despite its uneconomic case for power generation alone, perhaps Dutton's nuclear power policy is a first step?

Figured I’d hop on here today for the 15th anniversary of the Affordable Care Act.
With everything going on right now, it’s easy to feel like regular folks can’t make a difference – but the ACA is a reminder that change is possible when we fight for progress.

Keep Musk out of Australian Telecommunications for goodness sake! Infact, keep him out of Australia full stop! We'd rather use tincans and string instead of his captive trojan horse StarLink!
A potential Elon Musk "monopoly" over Australian telecommunication networks over a de facto requirement to use Starlink has senators worried, report @cameronwilson.bsky.social and Anton Nilsson.

The fallout of the Albanese government's plan to make telcos use satellite services has raised concerns from politicians of all stripes over whether this will entrench Elon Musk's Starlink in Australia's telecommunications network.

Trumpian politics heading down under?! On the basis alone, the Australian Liberal-National Coalition should not be given the chance to govern in 2025!
The Climate Change Authority provides independent advice on climate impacts. But the Coalition doesn't like its advice... so here come the threats, @keanebernard.bsky.social writes.
Coalition to public service: Be loyal to us or you're out
The Coalition says it will target the Climate Change Authority for revealing what nuclear power would do to our carbon emissions. It's the same type of intimidation tactics we're seeing out of Trump and Musk in the US.
