The cost of these degrees is completely unsustainable & we haven't seen the Albanese Govt treat reform of the failed Job Ready Graduates scheme with the urgency it deserves.

While they delay tens of thousands of students are racking up tens of thousands of $$ in student debt that will dog their life choices.

Govt needs to understand this failed policy is having huge real world impacts on students lives & futures.

Fix the timing of indexation and reform JRG. We could tax gas exports to pay for it.

Former MI6 chief Sir Alex Younger on Brexit: “Putin would have been absolutely delighted by our decision.”

“So would Xi. France has effectively eclipsed us. Brexit has marginalised us.” Most striking of all: “Just nobody mentions the UK.”

Very sad that Sir Alex Younger, chief of the Secret Intelligence Service, born on July 4, 1963, died of pancreatic cancer on June 2, 2026, aged 62

AstraZeneca's decision to withdraw this drug from the PBS will affect 1000's of women in Australia living with endo & breast cancer.

They say it's a "commercial decision" but are leaving the higher dose used for prostate cancer as is.

I asked questions at Estimates yesterday on behalf of Canberrans who had contacted me, worried about what their treatment looks like in the future.

I urge AZ to front up and explain what's happening - women with breast cancer deserve transparency here.

@SkyNews @HildegardP @skysarahjane Not hard to believe, and quite shameful, not to mention terrifying for any women contemplating pregnancy in the UK.

A sub-Antarctic sunrise a century ago. I have cleaned-up this beautiful paget plate which was photographed in South Georgia by Frank Hurley - official photographer on board Shackleton's ill-fated ship 'Endurance'.
Paget Plates were an early colour glass-plate process and this is not colourised.
