Bruce Lerhmann is a rapist.
Department staff covered up the rape.
Walter Sofronoff is corrupt.
The rape victim is the only person to have faced any consequences.

If it's American, and in your nation, just either steal it or sabotage it. That's how America is now treating even its closest allied nations.
Never again Yanks. We did that for you after 9/11. My Aussie mate was 1st on ground in Afghanistan after 9/11. The thanks the US give us back now? None.

Calling the press “fake news” is harmful. Calling them “seditious, perhaps even treasonous” for publishing reporting is something else entirely. Treason is a capital crime. Suggesting journalists should face it for exercising their First Amendment rights and doing their jobs is dangerous.

The welfare system isn't just on fire, it's burning out of control
A second report into the use of job-seeker mutual obligations is even more damning then the first – but will the government act?

People keep wondering why they're going after Venezuela. It's because they want to do regime change and control its oil, then use a big tract of land there to keep a tax free "network state" that looks like Dubai but operates like Rhodesia. They are saying this out loud! Believe them!

Strong argument at @alhr.bsky.social that a key missing element in protecting a healthy environment would be a Human Rights Act in Australia - this is core work for us and we will be pushing for meaningful progress on it in 2026. This can’t wait.

So instead of requiring gas exporters to supply gas to Australian manufacturers at reasonable prices, the cost would be transferred to taxpayers.
Let’s gas cartel keep price gouging Australians, and taxpayers foot the bill.

The November monthly temperatures have been released and 2025 looks set to be the 2nd hottest year on record.
Remember when warming apparently stopped in 1997?
That is more than 0.5C ago.
