Not wise, more likely someone (not him) finally read the room.

Good pub on the corner of the main drag and don't forget a trip on the horse-drawn tram to Granite Island (hope there are still little penguins there).

Possibly the only Middle East leader who isn't a lunatic.

We parked in the street some years ago intending to visit the castle. We looked across and there she was. A pleasant surprise.

A bit like, but not exactly the same as Australia Day in January (summer here!).

Until today, I had never heard of it except in an American context.

No, I'm in Australia..not something we have. But it has now been explained to me.

Thanks for that info. Has never reached me previously here in Australia!

Thanks, but giving thanks for what exactly?

Well done Canadians, but (genuine question) why are you marking Thanksgiving...surely an American thing.

You mean Trump missed out again? What a shame. Much wailing and gnashing of teeth in Washington today.

The United States's first execution by a military firing squad since World War II will be live-streamed, the Pentagon has said.

But a ON supporter sees nothing wrong with this. Ignorance, lack of critical thinking, lack of empathy, etc, etc is a hallmark.

As I often say here, Albo continues to disappoint. (for my American followers, Albo is the Australian prime Minister, Anthony Albanese). www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Great win Chooks. Haven't forgiven Newcastle for their defeat of Manly in 1997.

Such barbarism is yet another indication of a failing state.

What this woman did was heinous and she deserves to be punished, but the treatment she has endured is barbaric. 30+ years on death row then numerous rejected appeals and finally a botched execution. This is torture and a long way short of humanity. You can do better Americans.

Is the US still part of civilization?

Well, you can quote the Constitution until you're blue in the face, but the Tangerine Terrorist has time and again, shown he has no respect for the law and does what he wants. It's up to you Americans, to put an end to this. Don't squib it five weeks from now.

Once again the government refuses to pull the levers available to it. It thinks it will lose them votes if it cuts spending or raises taxes . Well, let's start with ditching AUKUS and taxing the rich.

Methinks the RBA doesn't see inflation. It sees nails.

Hume is completely out of her depth and Sheridan needs to crawl back into his crypt.

Like about a third of US voters - turkeys voting for Christmas.

This clown has no credibility and, while we're at it, could Sheridan please climb back into his crypt.

Couldn't name or even recognise any of her songs but, as others have said, I'm not her target audience (many years away, in fact).

Happy to visit China - planning to next year. Will never again visit the USA.

I was just going to say Albo continues to disappoint, but I have add that, once again, his judgement is extremely poor.
