He's been called Australia's Elon Musk. This is his 'trillion-dollar' plan
He has the chic of a Silicon Valley tech bro and a clean energy pitch for investors, but will Gerard Barron's deep-sea mining dream do more harm than good?

Does Australia supply weapons to Israel? The government has consistently denied the claim and criticised “misinformation” surrounding exports, arguing it has “raised tensions in this country”.

So what do we know about Australia’s role in the F-35 jet's supply chain, and what constitutes a weapon?

Norway taxes their fossil fuel industry and gives their kids free university education.

In Australia, we give more than half of the gas we export away for free, and charge our kids a fortune to go to uni.

A bit perplexed at the headlines about today’s #marchforhumanity saying “perilous” and “police feared the worst”. Surely the story is that, in spite of police fears, the march was peaceful, demonstrators full of goodwill and happily cooperated with police instructions to manage the huge turnout.
