    Viral photo reveals city's descent from paradise to crisis: 'This is so sad to witness'

    Wow - you really do have a blinkered view - the Liberals were in power for over ten years, and look at the damage they caused. Antony Albanese has been in power approximately two years. You expect him to undo all the Liberal Party damage in that time? Use your commonsense!

    I totally agree - a very well thought-out, informative and factual response!

    Ex-TV insider reveals the absolute worst celebrities to interview—names you won't believe!

    Perhaps it is the interviewer's style of questioning. I have seen actors interviewed on various occasions by different people. Some of the banal questions they are asked have to be heard to be believed. That fantastic Cillian Murphy is a case in point. He is a polite, private man, but does not...

    Shopper shares new saving techniques to cut grocery bills

    Canned vegetables - only for emergency eating. Frozen fruit - definitely not, except for smoothies. I don't think people check the unit prices. It's amazing the difference there is when you do check the unit price, and that applies to almost every item in the shop from food to toiletries. Quite...

    Viral photo reveals city's descent from paradise to crisis: 'This is so sad to witness'

    I'm a landlord myself but can't condone the behaviour of those landlords who are increasing rents to such ridiculous levels that the average working person can't afford them. It is really disgusting that the government allows this to happen, and they should be considering some form of rent cap...

    Viral photo reveals city's descent from paradise to crisis: 'This is so sad to witness'

    What nonsense. Australia was on a downward trend during the Morrison years with their many uncaring policies.

    Aussie radio presenter barely survives a harrowing car crash! What happened?

    "Barely survives" - THERE WERE NO INJURIES. You really need to tone down all the hyperbolic headlines - ridiculous! This woman would appear to be a serial offender. She crashed into a PARKED car for God's sake. The police didn't need to attend - I wonder why - she should have been drug and...

    Small issue leads to major travel disruption that cost $2,000

    Years ago I was in a very similar position with my passport. My issue was I did not have at least six months remaining on my passport. It was not widely know then that this was a requirement. At the time travel agencies were required to make that check before issuing tickets, which they did not...

    Sandilands is one of the "lowest common denominator" types so no surprise there!

    You won't believe how much this Melbourne pub is charging for just two pints – it's outrageous!

    More fool them if they paid that ridiculous amount. Buy a large bottle of ginger beer at supermarket for about $8!

    NRL legend exposes Kangaroos players' act during national anthem—what’s your take?

    As a Scot living in Australia I concur with your comments. There is nothing more likely to stir my heartstrings than hearing a Scottish football crowd singing Flower of Scotland - it's amazing!

    Radio personality discusses her recent rehab experience and struggles with substance use

    The cynic in me points out this duo's ratings are down in Melbourne!

    TGA’s reform set to reduce paracetamol pack sizes across Australia

    My cynical head tells me this is all about cost! Let's see if the prices per pack are reduced along with the size of the packs - yeh right!

    Grandmother's Shocking Love Life: How She Found Romance with a Toyboy As Young as Her Daughter!

    What a ridiculous article. This woman is 35 for God's sake. You make her out to be an old crone! The man is 19, not a child. Men are supposed to be particularly potent at that age, so who can blame her. It probably won't last but, as long as they enjoy their time together, who cares?

    Fans mourn tragic passing of Aussie chef Patrick O’Brien and iconic actor Ron Ely (86)

    My son was a big fan of Doc Savage when he was a little boy. Sad news.

    Mother-of-the-bride's DIY dress goes viral: You won't believe what she did!

    You might not have been to a wedding recently so, as far as etiquette is concerned, anything goes now. There was nothing disrespectful about this dress. This is only in the mind of the beholder. The dress was neck to way below the knee and she wore an undergarment, so don't see the problem. Just...

    Mother-of-the-bride's DIY dress goes viral: You won't believe what she did!

    Personally, I think the dress is fine, especially if she had a lining in it. We all have our opinions, and that's as it should be. Good for her being so inventive and clever, and not paying probably an exorbitant amount for a Cartney original.
