Australia used to perform a war cry- which would have sent shivers through Great Britain teams- at the start of every match on Kangaroo Tours for many years. Here are the 1967 Kangaroos performing this menacing act for the last time ever. Third test, Swinton. Aus 11-GB 3. #TRLV

The grassroots parents’ movement that championed phone bans and the under-16 social media ban, has extraordinarily condemned Labor’s Digital Duty of Care, warning the laws risk weaponising child protection to silence political dissent.

🚨 BREAKING NEWS: Albo Just Locked Net Zero Into Law Without a Single Vote
CANBERRA — In a masterstroke of rules-based order™, the government has used the EU Free Trade Agreement to bind Australia not merely to Paris targets but to the entire spiritual essence of the Paris Agreement.
Article 18.6™ now prohibits any “act or omission” that might upset the EU’s feelings about carbon neutrality. This is definitely just about cheaper cheese and cars.
Anyone who notices the net-zero handcuffs is a nativist protectionist™ who hates multilateralism and probably wants the Barrier Reef to die.
Future prime ministers can now be sued by Brussels for failing to implement the correct vibes. Australian energy policy has been successfully outsourced.
You’re welcome. 🫶💀

CORRUPT AS HELL: A DIRECT ATTACK ON DEMOCRACY
Remember when the Albanese regime took $67.6 million of your money and handed it to Nine, Seven, Crikey, The Conversation and others under the laughable name “Journalism Assistance Fund.”
The very outlets that exist to hold governments to account as a fundamental part of our democracy. Instead they took the cash.
They are now financially dependent on the very people they are supposed to scrutinise.
That is not journalism. That is a bought media. For as the saying goes, "He who pays the piper calls the tune."
We saw it with Helen Haines. Albanese peddled a dirt file on her — straight to the same media organisations he was already bankrolling.
That is not accountability. That is a government using taxpayer-funded media as its attack dogs.
Now they are doing it again.
Despite a budget in deficit, despite their own spending driving inflation and forcing interest rates higher, the Albanese regime has just handed another $31.5 million to 54 media outlets under what they have labelled as the “News Innovation Fund.”
And more than half of that money went to outlets already receiving taxpayer cash under the earlier "Journalism Assistance Fund"
The Conversation — a reliably soft, left-leaning outlet — had already taken $1,033,890. They just received another $891,000.
How can that not be seen as a reward for turning a blind eye to the most dishonest and deceitful government in
our nation’s history.
This second round of handouts is far more corrupt than the first. For it sends a message - telling media outlets that the size of their next handout depends on how useful they are to this government. So they go soft. They look the other way. They protect the regime that funds them.
For ultimately these are not ‘grants". They function as bribes. And bribes paid for by taxpayer.
They are the deliberate purchase of media compliance. They are an open corruption of democracy.
This rotten, corrupt, dishonest and economically incompetent Labor regime has turned public money into a tool to silence criticism and reward its friends.
It’s just another reason to PUT LABOR LAST on the ballot paper. Every single one of them.
The next election is our last chance to save Australia.

"Everybody Wants to Rule the World" is from Tears for Fears' 1985 album Songs from the Big Chair. The synth-pop classic reached #1 on the US Billboard Hot 100, #2 in Canada, #2 in Ireland, and #2 on the UK Singles Chart.
Although Roland Orzabal was initially reluctant to record the song, it went on to become the band's signature hit and won Best Single at the 1986 Brit Awards.

25,480 people. Daily cannabis users had 39% lower odds of glaucoma.
Not proof of causation, but another compelling reason to investigate.
Australia can prescribe cannabis while criminalising people for growing the same plant.
How much evidence before policy catches up?
A study involving over 25,000 people has found that daily marijuana use is associated with 39% lower odds of developing glaucoma. The study was published this week in the Journal of Glaucoma. themarijuanaherald.com/2026/…

Mindaroo don’t list most of their donation recipients and @TheAusInstitute won’t reveal their major donors so I suppose we won’t ever know. Why do tax free ‘charities’ get to act in secret. The charities minister @ALeighMP is friends with CEO of Australia Institute and speaks at their events.

The EUs two biggest net contributors to its budget are France and Germany.
France is on the verge of bankruptcy and will likely need a bail out by the ECB.
Germany is already challenging the existing costs of EU membership, not to mention the regulatory restrictions which are strangling economic growth.
All this and they haven't even started the repayments on the EUs one trillion Euro debt mountain, payments of which are due to commence next year.
Alongside this the EU plans to expand into Montenegro and Albania following the completion of negotiations next year. A costly exercise in its own right.
They will never admit it but the EU desperately needs the UK back as a major financial contributor simply to survive.
Only an idiot would think that rejoining the EU is a sound move for the UK.
@andyburnham is that idiot.

Nearly 50 years after prohibition, Nepal’s Supreme Court has given the government three months to regulate cannabis for medical, scientific, and industrial use.
The court also wants lawmakers to consider changes to recreational cannabis laws, though adult-use legalization isn’t on the table just yet.
