The Matildas’ stunning victory in the Women’s World Cup has moved the dial forever in female sport with audience figures smashing those for the NRL and AFL grand finals as it became the most watched TV event in 2023. Australians have paid $3bn in rental increases since July last year — with another almost $5bn in collective rent hikes expected in the next year alone.

The Palaszczuk government will walk away from a pledge to fully implement all recommendations in the Coaldrake Review, declaring opening a clearing house for complaints and corruption concerns is “unviable”.

Police Recruit Numbers Dwindling 21/09/22
NSW Police numbers are in danger of going backwards, with a record amount of officers retiring, and the waiting list for new recruits badly wanting, The Daily Telegraph can reveal.

Labor has promised to give nurses more time to care for individual patients by introducing “safe staffing levels” if it wins the next election, in a commitment that stops short of meeting union demands for legislated nurse-to-patient ratios. And in sport, “to beat Penrith, you have to bash them.” That’s the old-school advice from former Rabbitohs enforcer Mark ‘Spudd’ Carroll as South Sydney prepare for mission impossible: stopping Nathan Cleary and raging premiership favourites Penrith.
