NSW legislating to get rid of doli incapax, the presumption that 10 year olds are not mature enough to understand criminal behaviour brings to mind that Vietnam maxim, having to destroy the village to save it.

Imagine thinking you are essential to the democratic process by basically coasting on the gravy train well after you've actually lost interest in it all.

The F1 coverage from Las Vegas and the broadcaster is saying you can subscribe to every camera on the cars or track. Mate, I have enough choice paralysis on what I'm going to have for lunch today.

Trump making nice with Mamdani and MTG forced out of Congress all within a couple of hours. You'd almost think he didn't actually believe in the GOP beyond his own cult of personality 😆

All on whether a stadium that will put a huge hole in Tasmania's coffers gets built or not.
