4 Corners. Andrew Hastie Liberal minister, said that the Voice referendum was "a big win for us". Really? If you won, how come nothing changed? The gap is not closing? Lobbyists are still in parliament? Nobody won, Australia lost, Aboriginal people lost, the truth lost, unity lost, and humanity lost

Looks like Labor is about to approve the North West shelf gas expansion, which among bad news for the planet and WA energy costs is terrible for the nearby Murujuga rock art - which is so old, it has one of the first known depictions of the human face australiainstitute.org.au/post/woodsid...

A 40,000-year-old collection of rock engravings is under threat of destruction from acid rain, caused by fossil fuel extraction. One of the earliest tests of Albanese’s re-elected Labor Government will be a decision on whether or not to extend the lease of the gas hub that is causing the damage.

Forest Fire Management Victoria seems to take the view that if you get rid of the forest, including habitat trees that had escaped decades of logging and hung on through the 2009 fire, you won't have bushfires. Taken last week after a planned burn at Mt Disappointment.

I just keep thinking of the heartlessness of going to an election promising to sack 41,000 people just because they’ve chosen public service. The LNP talks of small business owners going out of business as a tragedy. How is sending thousands of people into unemployment not?

Remember, the reason we got AUKUS because Boris Johnson wanted to "punish" Macron. According to his memoir, he persuaded Scott Morrison to dump our French submarine deal in favour of AUKUS, as "revenge". Ditching AUKUS is a perfect opportunity for a PM who wants another term to show leadership.

This expensive Kew Junction billboard for the Liberal candidate in Kooyong was partly funded by the Coal Lobby. But as it was channeled through an intermediary, the Coal Lobby Donation won’t appear on the Liberal candidate’s donation register. This money is quite dark.

Good to see Trump’s claims about Zelenskyy being described in news reporting as “false”. We have a duty as journalists to make this clear when claims being made by politicians are demonstrably and undeniably untrue. Particularly when politicians are “flooding the zone” with incorrect content.
