Yesterday I met a single Mum who is getting kicked out of her rental home.

Geez you have to work hard to make me think Morrison is getting unfairly criticised, but Tone is willing to put in that effort

One of John Howard's proudest achievements — his respectful response to the Port Arthur massacre will remain a legacy we can all be proud of.

Peter Dutton's Port Arthur comments tonight, on the other hand, are utterly disrespectful and insensitive.

What idiot called it home schooling instead of intuition?

There's been a lot of questionable stuff written/said about Australia's large migrant intake. Here's my take on how migrants have helped the economy - and where they're living ... theage.com.au/politics/feder…
