Another day, another round of saturation coverage of an opposition partys internal struggle over a policy they'll never get to implement.
At least #ABCNews is pointing out some of the holes in the policy.

Here's some good news.
I participated in a #koala survey today at a local suburban reserve.
At the last one in May we spotted about 20+
Today it was 40+. Quite a few joeys among them, but mostly means the population is stable. That or our eyesight is improving 😊
Here's a few from today.
