    Drunken passengers thrown off flight still allowed onboard… How did this happen?

    Surely, passengers then have to pass through security. The security staff should be able to recognise intoxicated people and take them off the flight.

    Woman exposes price gouging on common bathroom item

    If you can't afford it, don't buy it. If you think the pricing is wrong, the responsible thing to do would be to bring it to the attention of the store manager. It might make you feel important but there is nothing to be gained by broadcasting it to thousands of people on social media.

    State government to spend $515m on recycling system reform. Is this a waste of taxpayer money?

    It's about time we built some WASTE TO ENERGY plants; burn all the rubbish, capture the emissions and make electricity from the furnace. Singapore has been doing it for years. If our alleged technically advanced country doesn't have the expertise to build them, I'm sure some Singaporean...

    Can you believe what this Coles shopper discovered in a 3-year-old pack of toilet paper? One shocking detail inside!

    Easy test - do they weigh the same? If the vendor's claim that the reduction is because it is tighter wrapped then there should still be the same amount of paper, therefore weigh the same. If they don't weigh the same, there's probably less paper so Coles is lying!

    Shocking $39.9 million loss: How do the royal family cope with savings and inflation pressures?

    It's a shame that social media platforms (including SDC) publicise this information so that the naive and poorly informed can vent their wrath. The truth is that The Monarchy are worth their weight in gold to the British economy. The revenue from tourism, Royal souvenirs, industry, media sales...

    Coles Discount Tag Error Exposes Pricing Discrepancy on Oreo Mini Biscuits!

    With thousands (?) of items on the shelves, occasional mistakes are to be expected. The responsible thing to do would be to bring the error to the attention of Supermarket staff, NOT broadcast it to thousands of people on social media.

    Pilot's terrifying experience: Blinded by a laser in mid-air – Find out what happened!

    Idiots! This could be life-threatening. Two years gaol isn't enough. Let's make a real deterrent and go with 5 years as in USA.

    International pressure increases as shocking footage reveals gruesome whaling tradition

    As Mikkelsen says: ‘It's much easier to hide what's happening in your own backyard just by pointing to others,’ which is just what he is doing. This article doesn't describe exactly how the whales are being killed but stabbing in the spine with a metal spike doesn't sound very humane. The Faroes...

    Floods of nutrients from fertilisers and wastewater trash our rivers. Could offsetting help?

    Very likely that this kind of pollution in Northern Queensland rivers is killing the GBR, not climate change. Add a lot of oil from car and boat exhaust residue and it makes a pretty toxic mix for the poor marine organisms. I have never understood why so-called reef scientists seem never to have...

    I would have thought those doors had a lock mechanism so that couldn't happen.

    The Jaw-Dropping Cost of Queen Elizabeth II's Funeral Will Leave You Speechless

    There is far too much emphasis on COST associated with the Royal Family and Royal events but no mention of the VALUE of the Monarchy to the country. The foreign income, tourist revenue, souvenir industry, television rights, etc, etc that Britain derives as a direct result of the Monarchy...
