I hope Dr Abdel-Fattah sues his arse to hell. It’s utterly disgusting how she has been defamed directly by Malinauskas and indirectly, mealy mouthedly by the AWW.
Social cohesion is being attacked by those who profess to protect it
I ain’t no big city lawyer, but this seems defo as all hell.
Malinauskas: “I do not support the inclusion of those who actively undermine the cultural safety of others, who celebrate the death of innocent civilians, or those who doxx other artists simply because of their faith or cultural background.” www.adelaidenow.com.au/news/south-a...

Because Australia gives so much of our gas away for free, Japan gets it so cheap that it makes a profit selling it on to other countries!

Goolagong review – ABC drama about Australian tennis legend is deeper than most sporting biopics
Goolagong review – ABC drama about Australian tennis legend is deeper than most sporting biopics

But watching the ABC’s new series about Australian tennis legend Evonne Goolagong Cawley – a former world No 1 whose accomplishments include seven grand slam singles titles – it is soon clear this will be something else, something deeper. Her story unfolds over three well-paced episodes with a refreshing kind of gracefulness. While it is perhaps not must-see viewing, it’s well above standard sports fare and I remained captivated throughout.
