    Safety concerns for Aussie tourists in France amid Olympic festivities: Disturbing attacks raise alarms

    I think a lot of people forget that this country was built on convicts - criminals. Our jails are full, we are the last ones to be throwing stones. There are good and bad in every race. If you've had a bad run in with a particular race of course you'll be feeling bias against them - but they're...

    Tense scenes erupt as bishop and churchgoers allegedly stabbed during church service

    This preacher has been putting out a lot of 'hate' talk about a lot of religions - he called the Anglican church 'sons of a snake' in one of his Youtube videos. It is inevitable that someone out there would get mad enough to do the unthinkable. He has been insulting and highly critical, which of...

    Woolworths’ decision on iconic ANZAC Day tradition leaves veterans outraged: ‘It’s common courtesy’

    ANZAC day reminds us "Lest We Forget" and that's the whole point, not to glorify war, but to remember that war is not good and that we should remember the consequences. This is the least we can do. My father served in RAAF in live action during WW2. So many of his mates never survived. So now...

    Outrage sparks as caravan reforms roll out Down Under

    This is really poor timing. Up in Noosa, apparently the council cracked down on a woman who had a rural property and had allowed a number of caravans the right to live as long as they needed, mostly single mums with kids - to give them a chance in life - I would imagine. Noosa council insisted...

    Why South Korea is banning the sale of dog meat

    I was watching a Youtube channel -- a young woman in Asia named Ann who builds everything herself, her home, a small bridge across her creek etc. She always has cute pups and kittens around her, which people loved of course. Then it became obvious to me that she was 'farming' dogs and cats for...

    Outrage at BIG W! Shoppers find new children's toys 'shockingly inappropriate'

    I don't understand how you explain to a little child the loss of limbs? Was it a psychotic monster with an axe? Was the leg dipped into a wood chipper? Was it run over or randomly hacked after a night on the booze? I can't see how that's inspiring the next generation? I don't think you'd find it...

    Emma Sleep's Spring Sale: Keep Cool and Save Up to 50%

    We bought an Emma mattress and it took 2 weeks for it to degas all the chemical smells. I personally struggle with it as I have Rheumatoid Arthritis and trying to roll over is tough.

    See why this 'foul' Woolworths delivery has shoppers up in arms

    LOTS OF ISSUES... I have used Woolies home delivery since Covid, but recently they have started using Partner Drivers, so any random Uber driver. We have instructions that our door bell must be rung. It has stopped happening and I've rung Woolies about it and they say they'll fix the problem...
