Memo to Nats” you can’t abolish net zero if you can’t form Government” They are completely and utterly irrelevant while ALP have. 94 seats
At the same time, the opposition is fractured over an argument about a target that's a quarter of a century away, when who knows what the technological or political landscape will look like.- abc They look like they have a death wish & have not understood demographic shift.
Nationals, the minor party in the Coalition, are determined to run their own race on most things. The Liberals have become akin to two parties, split between those eyeing urban seats and younger voters, and right-wingers reflecting the party's conservative grassroots.- abc
There's no other way of looking at it: Sussan Ley faces a diabolical situation with the debate over whether the Coalition should abandon the 2050 net zero emissions target.- abc The Libs will no choice but to split from Nationals. If not they will forever be in opposition.

What is cause of algal bloom in SA? If global warming is this going to be situation normal, all the time? Will it improve? Does it have a precedent?
US beef herd is lowest in 74 years. They are desperate for beef. We exported 525,000 tonnes of beef to them. Don’t think they have any to export to Australia. The only beef might be what they on trade from Mexico where there is no trace in event biosecurity disaster.
Ramsey closure of 20 psychology units indicator the health system is in diabolical straights. Will put huge pressure on existing system leaving many in trouble. What is going on PM?
Chair of Agrifutres Australia says the bush is a policy free area regarding renewable energy. The Morrison Gov opened the flood gates so developers have open slather. Thank you National party, is that why you are running this net zero bullshit
Privately, some Liberals say Joyce is hurting their chances again, despite Labor being comfortably in power for at least six years, when the renewables transition will be significantly further advanced. undermining Ley’s position even more. -Gardian

October 2014, the debt up to $904,000, at which point the ATO sent a formal notice to not waive the interest and penalties charge. "Your request has been fully considered and it has been decided that on this occasion the circumstances detailed do not warrant remission of the GIC

Inside Operation Babylift, which brought Vietnamese orphans to Australia at the Fall of Saigon- abc Another group of Australians taken from mothers. Add to those adopted in 50,s and 60’s, 7,000 English kids plus stolen generation indigenous kids totals a lot of misery.
