    Shoppers face new safety fears amid surge in armed robberies

    The legal system is much too lenient on repeat offenders these days. If you get caught once it should be a big fine, twice and they should be placed in detention for at least 3 months. If you do it a third time it should be jail for at least 18 months. It's just ridiculous

    ‘This isn’t respect’: Veterans question club’s Armistice Day gesture

    Since the RSL aren't the ones to have forbidden the wearing of the shirts, whoever did complain should own up. It's a pity you can't build another Bowling Club so you can wear what you like.

    Is your furry companion at risk as new council rules threaten big changes for pet owners

    When I had a cat, she was always inside except when I took her for a walk on a leash. When we moved to a country town, she hated going outside. I think that all cats should be spayed before being taken home. Also the most cats you should have is 2 at a time. If you want your cat to have outdoor...

    You can get THIS virus from your grandkid…and the protection would cost a whopping $300

    I bet all the politicians get it for free though. What do we pay taxes for if we can't get this for free. There would be less stress on doctors and hospitals if everyone could get this for free or for the price of a cup of coffee

    Former worker exposes Centrelink truth: 'It's a joke'

I supplied all the paperwork they asked for and when Covid hit I was told I'd have to try again once I could get back to see the specialist. In the meantime I had to use my superannuation to get by.
