  • Being accused of greed for asking for pay restoration really is on brand for this joke of a government. The "put up or shut up" attitude is disgusting, when so many workers are worse off in real terms than they were 10-15 years ago. The money is there, it's just a question of who has it. It sure as hell isn't resident doctors or other public sector workers. How much are Streeting and co earning?

    This is the part where we watch government ministers & their pals in the media try to stir division amongst workers and unions. It should be seen for what it is.

    Doctors will just leave the country and go elsewhere if we can't show that we value the work they do. A below inflation pay "rise" isn't going to cut it. Ditto for others.

  • A since-deleted Facebook post from the school, which included a flyer for the Culture Day, said the event was dedicated to "recognising and celebrating the rich cultural diversity within our school community".

    "We encourage students to consider wearing attire that reflects their nationality or family heritage," it said.

    Any outfits that were worn had to be "appropriate for a school setting", the post added, and had to hold cultural significance.

    Horrible idea. They were playing with fire by going ahead with this in the first place. Practically asking for a controversy.

  • I'm talking about the actual television channel and news site. They're very different to the Australian Sky News which is just a soapbox for crazies.

    the comments on their YouTube videos are just right wing monsters.

    What do you expect? YouTube comments are always a cesspit.

  • Nope, it's serious. Sky News Australia is owned by Rupert Murdoch's News Corp, which explains the far-right lunacy that it is known for.

    Sky News UK is owned by Comcast, and is generally considered to be a much more professional and respectable news outlet. Not perfect, but more BBC than Fox News.
