@dailypostdan Any impact on Luganville?

[Alex Perrottet @alexperro]

Reminds me how very tame and reserved Kiwis are. Either that or most of the crowd at the Basin reserve are English? 😂😂
Other nations' fans would go ballistic.
When Root and Stokes seemingly threw away their wickets, I couldn't help but think it's the death of #BazBall

Massive Congrats to @BLACKCAPS esp new Test Captain Tim Southee. Led from the front - not just great bowling figures today but a crucial captain's knock in the 1st innings when it was desperately needed. Every single run counted!

Recent developments in Hong Kong, including the ousting of elected politicians and the crackdown on civil society groups, are of serious concern to Aotearoa New Zealand. We reiterate our call for the protection of the rights and freedoms of people in Hong Kong.

@dailypostdan This was an amazing episode. Opportunistic and farcical. Yet somehow easily believable given Vanuatu's style of politics.

Congratulations to Maria Ressa. And congrats to Nobel Peace Prize - you're back on track. #NobelPrize

In terms of individual performers, you can talk about Jarryd Hayne or Tom Trbojevic, who got / get through defence with speed and strength, but no one has ever mastered the art of deception and evasion as the man from Whakatane. #ThankyouBenji

[Adrian Arciuli @Adrian_Arciuli]

#ThankyouBenji - One of the great @NRL careers - Benji Marshall is a player I will hopefully tell my grandkids about. His impact on kids growing up in the 2000s was massive. This is still the best try of the 21st century for me and one of the famous calls from @AndrewVossy

@richardhills777 @Dom_Perrottet Kia ora

[Alex Perrottet @alexperro]

Incredibly proud of my brother @Dom_Perrottet who today becomes NSW's youngest ever Premier. 👏 Historic achievement. It's an economy more than twice the size of NZ's. And he comes from a family twice the size of his own. So if u think he has too many kids, think again 🤣 #auspol

[Alex Perrottet @alexperro]

@craigmcculloch Haha you poor lad. Look there are worse types to be associated with... Aren't there? 😂
(sorry just seen this, have had twitter troubles!)

[Alex Perrottet @alexperro]

Yep sounds about right 😂

.@roberto_helou explains what happened on 4 August 2020 in Beirut and what's been happening since. It's now 3 months on. Catch the video - some extraordinary footage he took on the day.

[Checkpoint @CheckpointRNZ]

#WATCH: Three months after the blast that rocked Beirut & killed more than 200 people, the clean-up is still ongoing. Videographer Roberto Helou raced to the scene to help. He also took his camera. @alexperro heard his story. https://t.co/jPxBulOWjt

Would #3 "she is eminently qualified for the job" been the SMH's first point, and her family/religion mentioned, if #AmyConeyBarrettSCOTUS had been a single atheist?
