Please don't rely on AI answers. This is the answer it gave a month ago when asked "Do Bono and James McAvoy look similar". Both Scottish??It has been corrected now but it's such an unreliable source for even the basic facts.

Truly heartbreaking targeting of civilians, particularly children by Israel. Anyone defending Israel's inhuman plans fully supports genocide in Gaza. It's straight up evil. History will view you as we do Nazi sympathisers.

No surprise to me. The Nationals want to be the full MAGA right-wing, turn back the clock, support mining interests over land holders and climate change denial party. Littleproud knows he needs to act out a cosplay separation as the Liberal party pretends now to be moderate.

No one should be surprised that the for profit childcare, aged care and NDIS operators prize profit over people, it's built into the system. It does not create efficient and safe care, it's all about gouging the government and or the public. They all should only be run not for profit.
