Pauline Hanson has criticised the PM’s mother for living too long in public housing. While one might assume Maryanne Albanese would have loved to purchase her own home but unfortunately, she wasn’t able to call on a billionaire friend to fund a less frugal lifestyle. Kevin Bailey, Croydon

If Donald Trump wants to rename Lake Ontario, why settle for the rather tame “Lake America”? Go the whole hog and make it Loch Donald, complete with its very own monster. A winning combo of ego trip and gold-plated tourist attraction. Jenifer Nicholls, Windsor @theageaustralia.bsky.social letters

I think it’s great that the City of Melbourne has a “rapid response” van for the removal of graffiti (25/8), but it’s a pity that the word, “graffiti”, is spelt wrongly on the back of it. Mary Lyon, Camperdown @theageaustralia.bsky.social letters

Anthony Albanese has promised to keep a special deal to protect Western Australia’s share of the GST for as long as he is prime minister, reminding every other state that it was his government bankrolling an agreement that was on track to cost taxpayers $60 billion. www.theage.com.au/politics/fed...
