Good morning!
As promised… posting every day until the whole of Australia has seen it.
Show your friends.
Share it round.
Watch it again.
Oh… and for the rest of the world? Have pity on us. It’s our Finance Minister.

Absolutely incredible.
El Tigre outright lead in Colombia. 🐅
In sports, there are winners, and of course there are losers. We ended up on the wrong side of the result today. Congratulations to PSG, with all due respect.
But don't disrespect our players please. Every single one of our players put their bodies on the line until the very last minute. Hincapie even played the whole extra time with a crippled leg.
Every one of them contributed to this journey, and even though the result is not what we wanted, we are proud of them. Keep your heads up and keep fighting!
So here is the report in one post:
Axios reports the U.S. and Iran have reached a tentative deal pending President Trump’s final approval. Reported terms include unrestricted shipping through the Strait of Hormuz with no tolls, an Iranian pledge not to pursue nuclear weapons, a 60 day window to address Tehran’s enriched uranium stockpile and enrichment program, and possible U.S. sanctions relief alongside reconstruction aid discussions.
We’ve been here before, let’s wait for official confirmation from Iran and White House
Everyone in the real world wants the deal done and announced.
Everyone on X wants the deal to fall apart and for them to shout "I told you so!".
And soon when it's done and announced...they will switch to focusing on:
"What a terrible deal, Trump lost...I told you so!"
Amid the current oil crisis, @ZiadMDaoud tells @geoffpyatt there are two main obligations that Iraq must meet now:
Maintain the currency peg to the US dollar at its current level and sustain public sector salaries, wages, and pensions.
I really love how everyone who jumps on @BarakRavid’s reporting when they don’t like what he’s heard spends days talking about stories, like the tense Netanyahu-Trump call, when it fits their agenda/preferences.
If Capital Gains Tax is to be at the same level as income tax then the capital gain needs to be inflation adjusted otherwise it becomes a tax on inflation not real asset return.
Government incentives to control inflation then adjust. They are rewarded for higher inflation.
