'World Netball' has banned transgender women from competing in its professional competitions, but Australia won’t be following. @LucyZelic and our panel, including Netball great Liz Ellis, discuss how sports should adapt to ensure transgender players are treated fairly.



#BREAKING Australian Bureau of statistics published today reveals a staggering 1,154,000 permanent and long term arrivals to Australia over the year to February 2026. In 2026 we are seeing the highest levels of annual arrivals on record in fifty years (since 1976). When pressed on where all these new immigrants would live given the current housing crisis, Tony Burke said that “immigration was the solution” to the housing crisis and “not the problem” February recorded Australia’s 3rd highest intake of migrants since records began with 96,110 arriving in 4 weeks. That equates to 3,432 people. A day. The country is in huge trouble with this current Government at the controls.

Since Labor was elected 4 years ago: ❌ Prices are up (inflation currently 4.6%) ❌ Living standards are down (by ~ 7%) ❌ Real wages are stagnant ❌ Interest rates are up (by 3.75%) ❌ Income taxes have grown (by $83 bn) ❌ Government debt has ballooned (by $140bn) Everyone is worse off under Labor.



Immigration Minister Tony Burke’s interview with Pawan Luthra on The Pawan Luthra Podcast has been doing the rounds on social media over the weekend and … let’s be generous and say it didn’t do him any favours. Tony Burke said: "Half of our doctors now are born overseas. Half of our registered nurses are born overseas. About a quarter of the tradespeople we need to build homes are born overseas. So, effectively, we can’t run our health system or build the houses that we need without immigration now." Is that a good thing? 🙄 Article | spectator.com.au/2026/05/tony-b…
