Just an extraordinary amount of dead fish at Menindee. Kilometre after kilometre of dead fish. @abcnews

@calmarshall2 @abclandline Thanks Cal - means a lot coming from someone who knows the area so well having spent several years working out in Broken Hill.

Wes Herring almost ended his life several years ago during the drought.

Now he uses poetry to help him overcome the many obstacles life throws his way.

He's not the only one struggling, I interviewed several graziers for this piece for @abclandline

Emus walking through town in Broken Hill.

A sign it’s getting very dry out in western New South Wales.

Prime Minister Anthony Albanese is in Broken Hill today as part of his yes campaign for the referendum.

Mostly yes voters here and a handful of no’s floating about the city’s early polling centre.

Now that the true depth and cruelty of this appalling episode is confirmed the political media should review why some allowed themselves to be used, why others lacked curiosity and why most underreported the royal commission.

Two Walkley noms for @xanthe_gregory for her incredible coverage of the Eugowra floods last year. It was a tough time and Xanthe really put the audience first, at some significant personal cost. I’m so proud ❤️

[Australia Institute @TheAusInstitute]

A range of high-profile politicians, former military leaders & academic experts have signed an open letter calling for a Parliamentary Inquiry into the AUKUS nuclear-powered submarine deal, appearing in full-page ads in the AFR today.

"What can go wrong? Everything."

[Tony Windsor @TonyHWindsor]

The manner in which the Albanese Government treats the PwC scandal will be a defining moment regarding transparency,accountability and penalty.

[BillOrmonde @BillOrmonde_2]

@NedBalmeLives Not a fan either. Still not quite as bad as two weeks for Van Rooyen.

“If you live in a democracy people have the right to have your views heard.

Otherwise we’re in a dictatorship.”

Simon Hill hitting the nail on the head.

Always love a tough start to an interview

My column in @TheNewDailyAu today: there will never be a better time for the Labor Party to show some courage and policy ambition. This budget should not be about "relief, repair, restraint" but some big ideas.

In what must be a first for the family, Moses Obeid has pleaded guilty! He and former business partner Rocco Triulcio have pleaded guilty to lying to #ICAC over a deal that resulted in a $10,800 car discount for Eric Roozendaal:\https://t.co/nqXKdXyl2G

Great to see ex colleague @MassiliaAili repping the Hijab on Nine News

[Squizz @SquizzSTK]

Sussan Ley plays the blame game.

Jason Clare calls out the neglect under the Liberals, exposed by the Royal Commission into Aged Care.

Sussan Ley "I don't like the blame game"

“Do you live locally?” - Peter Dutton.

“ I live locally.” - Reporter

😂😂😂

[stranger @strangerous10]

Furious Peter Dutton snaps after being asked what evidence he has of a ramping up of child sexual abuse in Alice Springs & why he is rejecting the views of Peak Bodies….
…But before he can be completely humiliated the broadcast is abruptly cut short. #ABCNews

[BillOrmonde @BillOrmonde_2]

@dylanarvela Yeah I’ve got no clue. But he was probably another after the same journo called him out yesterday. https://t.co/XYijfuBZAZ

[stranger @strangerous10]

Journo stumps Peter Dutton by asking why he hasn’t bothered to meet with the CEO of the Alice Springs Traditional Owners’ organisation Lhere Artepe, while he is there in Alice Springs.
Peter Dutton says he’d rather speak to “shoppers in shopping centres” 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

[BillOrmonde @BillOrmonde_2]

@jen_browning Here's a clip from July 2020 story with Michael McCormack outside The Exchange in Dubbo - from a particularly fiery interview where @_mlangley. One of the farmers from Narromine said "They didn't consult with anyone south of the existing main line before deciding to come here."

[BillOrmonde @BillOrmonde_2]

Inland Rail review reveals 'astonishing' cost blow-out of $31b amid claims of unheeded advice.

A pet project of former Nationals leader Barnaby Joyce, the Inland Rail project was in what Dr Schott described as a "regrettable situation".

Not good at all.

[BillOrmonde @BillOrmonde_2]

@jen_browning Yep - and locals have been calling for better consultation for years.
