So sad to hear that Peter Manning has died. A lovely man, a great journalist and an inspiring boss. ABC Four Corners shot the lights out in the 80s when he was in charge. Australia owes him.
Dr Michael Keating and John Stanford are two eminent Australians who have exposed the dangers of AUKUS. They have congratulated the public inquiry for doing what the government has failed to do- consult, analyse and report!
Democracy at work! Well done everyone.👏
Our Australia Cup journey comes to an end, but the support you showed for 120+ minutes was incredible.
Thank you to every member and fan who showed up and backed us last night. We never take it for granted.
We are disappointed but determined. All focus on our A-League season ahead ❤️
@RonniSalt@deniseshrivell Denise puts in a ton of work, day after day, supporting independent media. MWM's recognition of her crucial role is well deserved
I went to a big corporate retirement party 25 or so years ago and Johnny Farnham provided the entertainment Before he started, he said he had been told most of the audience was over 50. Hands up, he said, all those over 50. Almost everyone raised their hands, slowly and shyly. Johnny spread his arms to embrace the audience. "Aaahh," he said. "My generation!"
Do elephants remember who was kind to them?
Yes – and across decades. Our ex-orphans return to the stockades long after they've gone wild, recognise specific Keepers by name, and bring their wild-born calves home to introduce them. They even come back for help.
Last month, Melia walked her new daughter Moon to our Ithumba Reintegration Unit – sixteen years after we rescued her. She came back so the people who raised her could meet her calf.
