Sydney Trains at a standstill again. This time it’s been at least on the T3 Bankstown Line (this was my train stuck at Punchbowl Station before I gave up). Public announcement said there were trains at a standstill at every station ahead of ours. #sydneytrains

🚨🎺 GOOD NEWS STORY ALERT 🎺🚨 If you have a few minutes, this is one of the loveliest stories I’ve had the chance of covering. It’s about a 90-year-old trumpet player who is still doing regular gigs (!) and playing sold out venues.

At the age of 90, trumpeter Billy Burton would have to be one of the country's oldest active musicians. But as @DanConifer discovered, he's still blowing up a storm after decades backing some of the biggest names in music. #abc730

Exclusive from @xiaoalison and me: Optus pledges to reimburse foreign citizens who replace passports that were exposed in September’s data breach. @abc730 abc.net.au/news/2022-11-03/o…
Optus promises to pay cost of replacing foreign passports compromised in data breach

Optus promises to pay cost of replacing foreign passports compromised in data breach

The telecommunications giant previously promised to cover the cost for Australians who chose to replace their passports, however, until now, it had not made the same pledge to foreign passport...

With all the talk about Labor’s primary vote (33%), it is worth remembering: - The Liberal Party primary vote (excluding its coalition partner The Nationals) is at 24%. - The combined QLD Liberal National Party collected 8% of the national primary vote. #auspol #AusVotes22

Hey brains trust, do you happen to know of any exit polls done on Saturday? I’m particularly interested in any that touched on fossil fuels/coal/climate and/or seats like Hunter, Flynn, Capricornia and Dawson. Thanks in advance. #auspol #AusVotes22 #ausvotes #AusVotes2022

Remember all the Coalition agonising about net zero before the Glasgow climate conference? Did finally pledging net zero even help in teal seats? Or did the saga serve more to remind voters that Barnaby Joyce’s Nationals could veto stronger climate action? #AusVotes22 #auspol

The Katherine Deves Hail Mary pass in Warringah: A short 🧵 1/n #auspol #ausvotes

Proud of the work @newscomauHQ did exposing Katherine Deves oeuvre of tweets on trans teenagers and the Holocaust and note for the record that those who thought voters are into this divisive gear - in Warringah or Western Sydney - were talking crap.

If the point was to create a ‘woke’ vs ‘unwoke’ … ‘elites’ vs suburbs/regions divide: *That was unlikely to happen in just six weeks. *It was hardly likely to happen with this issue (transgender kids in sport), which is pretty niche. 2/n #auspol #AusVotes22

The diligent campaigning by Greens in QLD over many years is quite something. There are lessons for all parties. If you have policies people *want* to support, they will volunteer. If they speak with and convince enough voters, you’ll gain ground. And the Greens have. #auspol

Lots of people are saying Greens gains in Brisbane electorates are due to climate change. That’s part of it but as someone living on the ground here, people are missing the huge grassroots community approach those candidates have led.

If the Liberal Party wants to flip back seats it lost last night — particularly to teal independents — is Peter Dutton really their guy? There would need to be a LOT of image softening (which might not be particularly convincing for those voters anyway). #auspol #ausvotes

How is Peter Dutton the most obvious candidate to lead the Liberal party out of this mess? #auspol #insiders

“Pull the armchair out for the next few days.” Liberal candidate for #Gilmore, Andrew Constance, expects the seat will be too close to call for some time yet. #ausvotes ⁦@abcnews⁩
