@Suncorp car insurance premium up 48%!!! Up 70% since 2022. It’s the new no-claim bonus.

@NWGLP @AuPacker @PeterDutton_MP Except several of those criminals came to Australia when they were young children. Living in Australia was the only life they had ever known. Deporting them was cruel.

Australia should do the same, why do we allow these barbarians into our country? @AlboMP @SenatorWong @PeterDutton_MP

@marcoose42 @UnbiasdOpinion @kanecornes Maynard takes a risk jumping off the ground, even to spoil. However, if he kept his arms out in front of him, protecting himself and Brayshaw, and Brayshaw gets KO’d it’s a week. Instead he turns away, abandoning any control he had to mitigate the risk. 2 weeks at best.

@UnbiasdOpinion @kanecornes How would you expect Maynard to avoid contact when he’s on a collision course and his feet are off the ground? By using his arms to swim sideways? Hoverboard? Magic?

Man on the mark literally isn't allowed to move, and AFL footballers still kick the ball straight into them. Bizarre #AFLFinals

@DrDreHistorian @OperationalInc1 He couldn’t even if he wanted to. Airports are a Federal Government responsibility.

@OperationalInc1 Holy shit that's some incredible ADS brane. Yes mate I'm sure Dan spends his waking hours striking lines of expenditure from Tulla budgets

@rastij @nicko_316 We just smashed you 10 goals to 2, but sure blame the umpires…

@nicko_316 All the guys in black shorts are Collingwood players (including the ones in fluoro tops?. We've dropped off our contest here as a few 50-50 decisions have gone against us. JLo coaching at half time will be critical to avoiding a blowout.

Jordan Lewis is really irritating in commentary today. Doing my head in @FOXFOOTY #aflpiesfreo #foreverfreo

@maven501 @barriecassidy Have a closer look yourself. Several like ATSIC (2005) and FaHCSIA (2013) are disbanded. NIAA is listed twice. The Koori Mail and the National Indigenous Times are wholly self funded etc etc Either your easily misled or are purposefully misleading others. Which one?

@barriecassidy Barrrie, why will no one explain what all these FNP advocacy agencies👇 do with the $billions of mining royalties & govt funding they receive, & why no benefits are seen - so why the need for the Voice. Something very wrong here. Time for accountability via a forensic audit.

No. And btw there’s nothing in the proposal that demands the government adopt advice on the issue. And they get plenty of it already.

@PRGuy17 Some of those lost millions may have funded investigative journalism Solid investigative journalism like the articles published by Nine’s mastheads that were the subject of Ben Roberts-Smith’ recently dismissed defamation action. Surely you’re not celebrating that?

Herald Sun and The Age have reportedly been blindsided by a commercial decision by the Victorian Government to cease advertising in the partisan outlets from July 1 as concerns grow over real readership figures and bang for buck. The move will cost the outlets millions. #auspol

@Angelica196057 @TurnbullMalcolm Rubbish. Cruise ships servicing the Australian market are diesel/gas powered. Globally some hybrid diesel/electric powered ships have entered service since 2020, and a few smaller 100% electric vessels since 2022.

@TurnbullMalcolm I like watching cruise ships docking in Garden Island! Nearly all contemporary cruise ships are powered by electricity (motors turn propellers).

Garden Island is a naval base. Has been for over 150 years. We are expanding our navy. The idea that cruise ships should move in is ridiculous. Using the filthiest fuel, paying third world wages, the cruise industry’s claim to benefit Sydney’s economy is utterly spurious.

@Sir_Merc @rohan_connolly @WesleySouthcott No, you’re confusing my statement of fact with your opinion.

@exisensualist @rohan_connolly @WesleySouthcott In essence, what you’re saying is, it will be a tokenism at best, or very inconsequential to actually “closing the gap”?

Nice work, Dons. If club is serious about restoring its reputation in Indigenous matters, it's a no-brainer. And to anyone starting the "sport & politics don't mix" garbage, it's not about politics, it's about decency, humanity & growing up as a nation. essendonfc.com.au/news/1332819/a…

@Zlat_sk1 @Sammy__Edmund Better to have a few people locked out once or twice a year, than be in a 1/2 or 1/4 full stadium the rest of the year.

@Zlat_sk1 @Sammy__Edmund 40k - far too big IMHO. In a city of 5+ mil, the MCG only averages about 50% of its 100k capacity across the approx. 45 games it hosts a season. Not including the GF, less than 10% would sell outs. A half empty stadium with no atmosphere will be terrible for a Tas team.

@Zlat_sk1 @Sammy__Edmund Refurbishing stadiums is often comparable in cost to a new build. Opportunity cost aside, Macquarie Pt offers several advantages over the existing Hobart stadiums - transport, noise controls, minimal encroachment, proximity to CBD etc.

@Sir_Merc @rohan_connolly @WesleySouthcott Fair question, however the successful passage of the referendum only guarantees the need for a ‘model’. It has no bearing on what the ‘model’ look like. How the Voice is administered will be a decision for the government of the day.

@rohan_connolly @WesleySouthcott To answer a question with a question Rohan, have the government actually defined publicly what the intent and legal standing will be? Whilst the idea is fantastic, does the actual model provide anymore than lip service?

@spoiledfigs @thiassou_ Great recommendation, just listening to her recordings on Apple Music now.

@thiassou_ Pari Zangeneh, Iranian folksinger from the 70’s who’s voice I’m always thinking about

What’s a NON ENGLISH SPEAKING album that you think is 10/10? I’ll go first

@Sammy__Edmund Still confused to the point of building a stadium that is only 3k more in capacity than the already available ground. Fix the existing or build a bigger stadium, double in size

Gill McLachlan on the political storm in Tasmania over a new stadium: "If you want an AFL team it comes with a stadium. People have their views, but it's now funded. It comes together. You can't have one without the other. It's easy to oppose things, it's easy to point to alternate uses of capital, but tourism, construction, economic impact & pride - there's a demonstrated business case - is significant."

@CollingwoodFC GWS didn’t stand a chance

"When in front of the goals, MAKE IT COUNT!" Beau McCreery's Mum, Julie, delivered one of the all-time great pre-match speeches ahead of our 65-point win against GWS 🤍

@KevinHu33108272 @masonsixtencox What’s with the ‘you play footy’ gibe??? No one’s occupation should be used as a basis to exclude them from public discourse.

@masonsixtencox Glad you think our holidays are ridiculous. Some of us value Anzac Day. Do you remember what you get to do on our special day you just branded ridiculous. You play footy. Goose.

Learning so much. Queens birthday becomes Kings birthday even though it’s neither of their birthdays. Australia has the most hilarious holidays and I love it! #KingCharles

Last year pundits claimed Geelong’s relaxed lifestyle is key to its success.

@Picketer nytimes.com/interactive/20…

@Picketer A recent article in the NY Times claimed the cost of converting hi-rise office buildings to residential was typically more than the cost of building a similar size building from scratch.

@Switch03L @RitaPanahi Isolated? The swimmer is just beyond the break, probably no more than 20 metres from shore.

@RitaPanahi I never get why people swim in such isolated parts of any ocean. You might be ok in say the North Sea as there are no large predators, but in many oceans like in OZ, you make yourself very vulnerable.

They don’t like to eat humans but you’d still be scared silly.
