I hope #insiders acknowledges the opening today of the most beautiful inner-city railway stations in Australia - Melbourne’s 9km Metro Tunnel with 5 new stations.
Credit to ALP Premier Andrews who pushed ahead after various myopic LNP leaders (Baillieu, Napthine & Abbott) tried to shelve it

Lobster fishery off Bruny Island in TAS closed on eve of the opening of fishing season due to antibiotic use by the salmon farms.
No indication of how long for. Must be a devastating blow for fishermen approaching Xmas.

Geez, this is not #AustralianStory
… it is Leigh Sales doing an interview.
ABC’s Australian Story format is unique & brilliant - introduced by someone close to the subject with just the subject & those connected with the story telling the story.
No interviewer needed.
Don’t mess with the format!

$100 million for a failed website (that has no registered users / password access / consumer data / paywall / ecommerce etc etc etc) is truly insane. $78 million for "design"!?!?! www.smh.com.au/politics/fed...
Total bill for BoM’s new website came in at $96 million
In his first interview, new Bureau of Meteorology chief Stuart Minchin has revealed the eye-watering true cost of its lambasted new website.

The reason why Trump’s meeting with his sparring partner the newly elected New York Mayor, Zohran Mamdani surprisingly went so well.
Trump loves getting coverage.

“"I've had a lot of meetings with the heads of major countries, nobody cared. This meeting — you people have gone crazy."

We are entering bushfire season in Oz which always focuses people’s minds on the (literally) inflammatory effect of climate change on our world.

Um … David Littleproud on #abc730 saying that one third of Australians can’t afford to put food on the table tonight.

Nine million people?
Clear, obvious lies like this should be challenged on the fly otherwise all credibility is lost.
