Nick, this was one of the failures I spoke about last night at a community event put on by Voices of Chisholm. @rachelrwithers and I spoke on 'Does our Media help or hinder democracy?' More to come when I post my speech on substack - as a recording and written article - later this week. Onward we press. Sue

Manic Street Preachers
#OnThisDay in 2007, Manic Street Preachers released ‘Send Away The Tigers’. Featuring tracks including ‘Your Love Alone Is Not Enough’, ‘Autumnsong’ and ‘Indian Summer’, the album marked a powerful new chapter for the band and went on to become one of the defining records of that era. What’s your favourite track?

@MargieJay50 @LiberalVictoria And having lived in that electorate for a decade I can attest to his utter uselessness as a representative of the community, surfacing only at election time with shit the calibre of the deleted tweet being discussed.

@newberry3186 - living proof that an MP can put on an expensive suit but not shed his inner propensity for threatening violence using baseball bats against a woman. @LiberalVictoria
Eye on Goldstein@auspolfiles

Brighton Liberal MP James Newburys' @newbury3186 rhetoric here is dangerous & reckless. As an MP, he knows well the climate of political violence/aggression (inc death threats) towards MPs. Directly asserting physical aggression, openly fans the temperature #springst #auspol

@auspolfiles @newbury3186 @SueBarrett To my reading this tweet constitutes hate speech - it is a call to violence, naming another party and explicitly an individual. Do the draconian laws that allow idiocy and lies in political advertising mean he will get away with this?

In a world where digital control has choked the life out of almost everything, Jimmy Hornet Magazine is vital and refreshing. Editor and owner Anthea has built Jimmy Hornet Magazine with her own resources and does not rely on advertisements or funding. @jimmyhornet

The Leonardo of the Bush. In 1909, a Ngarrindjeri man named David Unaipon walked into a patent office in Adelaide and registered a design for an improved sheep shearing handpiece. He was 37, self-educated, and had grown up on a Christian mission station in South Australia. Over the next 35 years, he would file patents for nine more inventions, a centrifugal motor, a multi-radial wheel, a mechanical propulsion device, earning himself the nickname "Australia's Leonardo." His most striking idea came in 1914, when he proposed that a flying machine could be built using the aerodynamic principles of a boomerang. He produced detailed drawings of a helicopter-like device decades before practical helicopters existed. The physics were sound. The funding, for an Aboriginal man in early 20th-century Australia, was not. Every one of his ten patents eventually lapsed because he couldn't afford the renewal fees. Unaipon was also Australia's first published Aboriginal author, writing essays and collecting Indigenous oral traditions from communities across the country. He spent decades touring schools and churches as a preacher and public speaker, often walking hundreds of miles between engagements because he couldn't afford transport. A publisher later took his manuscript of Aboriginal legends, removed his name, and published it under someone else's. In 1995, nearly three decades after his death at age 95, the Reserve Bank of Australia put David Unaipon's face on the $50 note, the country's most commonly used bill. The man who couldn't afford to keep his own patents now changes hands millions of times a day. Sometimes recognition arrives at exactly the speed of bureaucracy.
