    Coles’ smart gate crushes shopper’s hand: ‘Hurts like hell'

    Not my experience. Of course you have never had any electrical item malfunction, breakdown, no computer glitches etc etc Never heard of vehicle electrical problems. Reports of elevator failure which operate on sensors are fake news. Think I know who is creating bulldust

    Coles’ smart gate crushes shopper’s hand: ‘Hurts like hell'

    Not supposed to! That means they can have faults. I have had lift doors close on me, but they are not supposed to. These auto doors and gates are difficult to navigate with a baby or a very large shop, or if a number of people are crowding to get in or out

    Coles’ smart gate crushes shopper’s hand: ‘Hurts like hell'

    Almost never shop at Coles. They are the worse for treating everyone like a criminal. I find it hard to believe that self serve is saving money when it requires all this monitoring technology plus a staff member to watch everything you do. For the posters complaining about the person bring...

    Supermarkets need to change the way they operate in Australia. But how do we get them to do this?

    Not yet, but the bulls are worried about milk and climate change. No meaningful action on climate change and so much else

    Supermarkets need to change the way they operate in Australia. But how do we get them to do this?

    Our PM has to be forced to act, and then it is too little too late. There was not much point in changing the government as the policies have not changed.

    Can Centrelink payment hikes boost music festival participation?

    Read it please. Blame everyone BUT themselves. Nothing wrong with being well off, but does not give anyone the right to denigrate those in a certain group or less fortunate. That is bigotry

    I think you are the fool jumping to conclusions without checking facts. Little things like holidays, correction days etc etc. You did not read the article properly. Concert promoters made the suggestion, not the unemployed. Try thinking

    Can Centrelink payment hikes boost music festival participation?

    Um that is about right for the full pension unless you have other income or exceed the asset limit. How are the young spoilt given the cost of accommodation, gig Economy and lower job seeker rate? Plus the latest figures show unemployment is increasing

    You can be assured that most or all the people criticising here are not reliant upon a government pension. They have no idea and are among the privileged who have disposable incomes. It would be nice if they would check their facts first. I do not agree life is easier for young people as...

    Did you bother reading who made the suggestion, the music / concert people, not those looming for work. as an oldie I take exception to your comments as a percentage of income everything is MORE expensive now, including housing and energy.
