Pauline Hanson is personally responsible for ramping up a culture of hysterical HATE towards politicians & now Helen Haines is critically injured by a nutter outside her own electoral office. I see a direct link between the two. Hanson should tell her hoons to stand down. #auspol

I’ve never seen this clip before. When comedy was allowed 😆😆😆😆

There is a mountain of unworn clothes in the driest desert on earth, large enough to be photographed from space. It grows by 39,000 tons a year and almost none of it will ever rot. The Atacama, in northern Chile, is a place where it may not rain for a decade. On its edge is a duty-free port called Iquique. Every year about 59,000 tons of clothing arrives there from Europe, America and Asia. It is last season's stock that never sold, and the bags people leave at charity shops. Dealers pick through it for anything they can resell across South America. Two thirds of it is worthless. Nobody will pay to ship it back out, so lorries drive it into the desert at night and tip it. The local landfill refuses to take it. The reason given is that the clothing does not biodegrade and is full of chemicals. Most of it is polyester, which is plastic, and in a place with no rain and no soil life it will lie there for centuries. Some of it is set alight, and the smoke drifts over a town of 100,000 people. In 2025 a Chilean court ruled that the dumps had done serious damage to the land. For most of history this could not have happened. Clothes were wool, linen and leather. They were worn out, handed down and patched, and at the very end a rag merchant paid for the scraps. In Yorkshire, from 1813, old woollens were shredded and spun into new cloth. Anything left went on the fields, where wool breaks down in months and feeds the grass. Nobody ever had to find a desert for worn-out wool. We invented a fabric that cannot die, and then we started making it to be thrown away.

Introducing Alfa Romeo CuoreRosso - to be presented to the public today in Paris. It’s only a manifest of Alfa’s new design language, said to be implemented across the future range… but we wouldn’t mind at all to see a new Giulia looking as sharp as this… How do you like it?

Now that we’re teaching kids and suspending players for using the homophobic “P” word, great that you can take the whole family to Windy Hill to enjoy a bit of “Poof Doof”.

In under four years, Cambodia's government killed about a quarter of its own people. When the communist Khmer Rouge, led by Pol Pot, seized the country in 1975, they declared it "Year Zero." History would start over from scratch. They emptied the cities at gunpoint, marching some two million people out of the capital and forced the entire population onto collective farms. Money was abolished. So were private property, religion, and schools. The goal was a pure agrarian state, built by forced labor. The Communists set out to erase anyone who might think for themselves. Being a doctor, a teacher, or a monk could get you killed. So could speaking a foreign language or simply wearing glasses. To save bullets, executioners often used hammers, hoes and sharpened bamboo. The bodies filled the mass graves that became known as the Killing Fields. By the time a Vietnamese invasion drove the Khmer Rouge out in 1979, between 1.5 and 2 million Cambodians were dead out of a population of roughly 8 million. One in four Cambodians. Dead. Not by war or natural disaster. From their own Communist government.
