Hi Jacinta. Most liberal supporters love what you are doing. You are a diamond in a liberal rock. But Pauline and one nation continue to outsmart the liberals. Time to evolve and quickly.
For decades, billions of dollars have been spent in the name of helping Indigenous Australians, yet too many communities continue to face the same challenges.
Real progress starts with honesty.
Australians have a right to ask where the money is going, how it is being spent, and whether it is delivering better outcomes on the ground.
Communities deserve more than announcements, reports and rhetoric.
They deserve safer communities, better education, better health outcomes and greater opportunity.
That is not a radical proposition — it is accountability.
The Cowboys have had as many wins as Roosters (3rd) and Manly (4th) but are 9th on the ladder. They have also won two more games than Rabbitohs (8th) but are behind them on the ladder. The NRL has gotta stop giving teams point for byes.
@Iliadis_g@SeaEagles It’s only round two, mate. Yes, it’s frustrating but you can’t sack a coach after two games of a season. Let Seibs try and dig the club out of this
Today the former Chief Justice of the High Court Robert French, former head of the Australian Secret Intelligence Service (ASIS) Nick Warner, former Queensland Premier Peter Beattie, former Federal Labor minister Mike Kelly & Labor Senator Nova Peris, 100 Senior Counsel and current Labor MPs Mike Friedlander and Ed Husic joined the Jewish community and the Coalition in a growing chorus of legal, political, security and civil leaders calling for an urgent Commonwealth Royal Commission into the Bondi massacre.
I urge the Prime Minister to heed this message and announce a Royal Commission now.
It's illogical for the Prime Minister to say "we want urgency and unity, not division and delay" in dismissing a Royal Commission.
Prime Minister you have been delaying taking strong action for the last two and half years.
If you want to use alliteration then what we want is accountability and action and not a Prime Minister who is in denial but one who shares our despair.
Mr French's words today were powerful and pertinent.
He described what needs to be done as a "moral imperative" saying "there is no requirement for governments to put on hold their responses to the (Bondi) attack pending the provision of reports by the Royal Commission. The events at Bondi Beach require a whole of Australia response which transcends politics and which by its very independence generates a powerful force for change."
Mr Warner said "at the heart of the horror and tragedy of Bondi lies antisemitism, allowed to fester and grow through years of inaction. This must be addressed and acted on, and a carefully mandated Royal Commission would play an important role."
In the days since Australia's deadliest ever terrorist attack, we have heard too many excuses from our Prime Minister and his senior Ministers.
We have been told 'you can't legislate against hate'; we have been told 'anti-semitism didn't begin in 2022'; we have been told that it comes to the threat 'we are dealing with a circle of two'; we have been told the priority is a gun buy back not the radicalism in our midst; and now we are told we can't have a Royal Commission because it will lead to 'delays' in the response.
Each excuse only compounds the pain of the last week and underscores the need for the Government to take urgent, unprecedented and strong action to secure the safety of all Australians.
Cocky Aussies are gobbing off like they’ve already won the Ashes. They haven’t. England have had a shocking start but we can still win this series. Just need the rest of the team to burn with same ferocious intensity as their leader @benstokes38 .
Start blazing, gentlemen. 🔥
Manly are locked in a three way bidding war for centre Reuben Garrick.
They plan on increasing their offer of around $550,000 a season in a bid to ward off approaches from the Dragons and Roosters.

Starc has bowled magnificently, England have batted significantly less magnificently, but we can still win this incredible Test match.
Just need to get a grip, dig deep, and somehow grind out a 200+ lead. That will be enough. #Ashes
Bowling brilliantly England but gee, this wicket has come to life late in the day. Crazy lift to Khawaja and Marnus. Game on! Ashes cricket is something else #ashes25

🚨 WINNER ALERT – TEAM TDR
📅 Saturday, 18 October 2025
📍 Morphettville – South Australian Jockey Club
🌤️ Track: Good 3 | Distance: 1050m
🐎 WIGGUM (Ralph)
👨✈️ Rider: Ben Price | ⚖️ 60kg
💥 Result: 1st of 7 – Peter Elberg Funerals Handicap (Heat of Sportsbet Gytrash Series)
💬 Wiggum (Ralph) produced a barn-storming finish to claim the 1050m Gytrash Series Heat at Morphettville, capping off a Doudle Metro Double following Golden Horizon’s earlier win.
Settling back off the speed, he travelled beautifully throughout before peeling three-wide on the turn. Once balanced, he unleashed a powerful sprint — diving late to snatch victory right on the post in 0:59.98, running an explosive last 600m in 32.82, the quickest of the meeting.
It was a brilliant first-up performance from a horse who’s clearly come back in outstanding order. The team couldn’t be more excited to see where this prep takes him.
⸻
💬 Trainer’s Comment
“That was a huge return. He relaxed perfectly in behind them, travelled strongly, and when Ben got him into clear air he really exploded.
To come from back and grab them late like that shows how well he’s come back. It’s great to see him firing — and to get a metro double with Golden Horizon makes it even sweeter.”
— Travis Doudle
