October 11th - NT govt plans to displace ~150 people 100km out from Darwin – risking access to jobs, family, health & community services. Labor must urgently fund Darwin’s Yilli Short Stay Accomm to prevent its closure, as I've written in a letter to relevant govt ministers.

Mr Global has a take on this today. Yep PR. EU oil and diesel is privately owned and being permitted to release and releasing are three different things.

Has anyone bothered to ask recently why immigration needs to be cut? It would appear the housing 'crisis' is headed the other way. #Auspol

Reminder - Japan imports more gas from Australia than it needs, and so it onsells it to other countries for a profit. www.afr.com/world/asia/a...

Australia moves to calm Japan’s jitters over gas reservation policy

Treasurer Jim Chalmers used a large business gathering near Tokyo to promise executives that Australia would remain a dependable energy supplier.

I was stunned to see they have made another one. I think I have it set up to record. The last one bored me a bit. Seemed to be more about their kids and theirs. Although I guess that is life.

I follow a 'camping' battery group and the batteries are very popular with 'Tradies' for similar reasons. I think Electric Utes will be very popular among tradies eventually.

True story. Can't remember if it was NYE or Xmas but the driver went from Adelaide Central to Elizabeth to drop his squeeze off. 30km out of our way. We passengers had no idea what was going on until he gave a woman a kiss as she got off.😜

I'm surprised more aren't concerned about the nuclear waste deal this signs us up for. Rex Patrick is having a hell of a time FOI ing to get that exposed. Labor are spending a LOT of our money stopping him.

Residents of Dalby on Queensland's Western Downs suddenly face a $31bn datacentre. David Crisafulli lobbied Anthropic for it & refuses to implement power/water regulations. Now Jarrod Bleijie has seized control, taking DC planning away from councils. #qldpol www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

Rural Queenslanders have seen gas projects come and go – but a 725-hectare datacentre poses a whole new level of ‘stupidity’

Residents of Dalby may soon live beside a $31bn datacentre. The premier sees ‘opportunity’ for the state – but others fear AI’s global creep
