    Not worth the squeeze? Enraged BetterUp colleagues criticise Prince Harry’s role in struggling firm

    What exactly is an "Impact Officer"? How much impact has Harry had in the role (not much if the downsizing redundancies are anything to go by)? The only currency the Sussexes had when they left was their connection to the Royal family and they were paid handsomely for their vitriolic spewing...

    ‘Last male sanctuary’ barber shop to pursue formalising ban on women

    Rent a mob doing their civic duty complaining about a single barber shop for men - how very predictable. These whingers need to get a life. It is ONE barber shop in a city of probably hundreds that has declared it will only cut men's hair. If you are not a man, don't go there - simple! As for...

    Nutritionist exposes ‘misleading’ labels on supermarket egg cartons

    No more than say pork would show up in your body! Once ingested, all food is processed to its microelements and then either absorbed or eliminated. It doesn't matter if that amino acid comes from soy or a steak, it is still an amino acid and will be used as such. So no, people sensitive to soy...

    Aged care funding shakeup: New proposal may compel older Aussies to tap into their supers

    That the employer paid the superannuation is true but it is still our money in exactly the same way the employer paid your salary/wages.

    ALDI intensifies shoplifting crackdown

    Contrary to popular belief, shops are not public places. They are private spaces into which the owner invites people. All entry to every shop is subject to certain conditions and one of them is usually that bags much be offered for inspection when asked. If you don't agree to those conditions...

    Beyond the necessities for life (food, accommodation, clothing) I believe that CITIZENS of Australia should be entitled to two things provided by the Government: The first is comprehensive education at least to first degree level. Education is the only way to change personal circumstances. The...
