A man that split a woman's head open yesterday, for asking them to just please leave, walked up to a Woman Premier and threatened them and he is still walking around. A 11 year old Aboriginal girl has been in an adult jail for 4 months for shoplifting.

Still seems to be a little confusion over how to report on nazis, yet it is simpler than almost any other reporting: 1. DON'T publish particular words or images they want you to publish 2. DO publish words or images they don't want you to publish

Kennett was a Temu Trump: a harbinger of cruel mediocrity to come. Victoria’s ongoing lack of a train to the airport, and electrified trains to Geelong, Ballarat and Bendigo, is a consequence of his privatisation of Melbourne’s tollway road system. Our trains aren’t allowed to compete with Citylink
