In 1983 the Labor Government legislated to prevent a dam being built on the majestic Franklin River which flows into the beautiful Macquarie Harbour.
In 2025 Labor promises to legislate to ensure Fish farming can continue to foul the harbour and destroy a threatened species of skate. Shame on them.

ASMR? Try AMSR Angel on YouTube and you can be soothed by the delightful sounds of gift wrapping and many other repetitive tasks.

Mine shows both names. I think it's different where you are located.

It's just Yahoo. They scour Facebook for social media for 'news'. I doubt there's even a journalist in their office now. Articles generated by AI and the tea lady.

In Tasmania they used the word in the Huon Valley but it died out in the 70s I think. It referred to trucks, ie over 3 or 4 tonnes capacity. (Trucks in Australia used to mean only these heavier vehicles. Now the term increasingly includes large 4wd vehicles which are also called Utes)

I thought the aim is to stop the arbitrary exercise of power and affirm the rule of law! Oh, but, presidential pardons....I guess it's cultural.

Sadly Australians don't smile on foxes. They are an imported pest that kills hundreds of thousands of native animals and birds each year. Our animals have no defence against foxes and feral cats.

Remarkable. I did it once and on reflection it showed zero skill. When I get it on the second try I give myself a pat on the back.

Most of Australia us fluoridated.

Same might be said of Albo. (Tonight I saw a clip of Gough in Darwin after Cyclone Tracey. My heart bumped. That was a statesman)

Here in Cairns, Australia, our city council just decided not to fluoridate our water. Sadly, local government (read real developer estate stooges) get to make these decisions despite the science.

So what is deeply dusturbing?
