Australia has so much to offer when it comes to the arts world.
I’ve been fortunate enough to see Emily Kam Kngwarray’s works at the National Gallery of Australia. Now, her exhibition is being shared with the world at Tate Modern and they have absolutely done the pieces justice.

Ok so this is truly bizarre. Just heard James Paterson on RN.

Australian Islamic House Masjid received abhorrent threats earlier today. After returning from Brisbane tonight I went straight to the mosque to stand in solidarity with the community. People have a right to worship in peace and safety. The government stands against the bigotry of Islamophobia.

James Paterson has done it again.
This time his misinformation was on Sky News. He claimed the only people invited to citizenship ceremonies were Labor MPs.

Full credit to Mr Paterson. He talks a newspaper into running a story furiously demanding the department release information that not a single Liberal MP had asked for. He might be terrible at facts but he’s clever at media.
