Australia's jobseeker system fails workers and enriches millionaires, report says
Midday belonged to the White House deputy chief of staff. What he said deserves to be quoted rather than summarized, because summary is a mercy it has not earned. He called "leftwing political terrorism" a "fatal cancer of civilization". He said that its politics, left to run its course, "always becomes a gulag". He said antifa demonstrators are "all deformed in some way, in their appearance, in their dress, in their mannerism", that "their outer appearance becomes a manifestation of their inner hatred", and he asked why there is "not one normal-looking person among them". He said that when the leftist protests that his rights are being violated, those appeals "must fall on deaf ears". He urged the assembled governments to be "completely unflinching in the pursuit of justice against these enemies of civilization". And he described the work already under way in six verbs: "disrupt, identify, defund, debank, arrest and prosecute".

Western Sydney University • 25 Jun・Ca ... Western Sydney could face up to 46 days a year above 35°C by 2090, as climate change and urban heat intensify across Australia's fastest-growing regions y Western Sydney's inland location limits sea breezes that cool the eastern suburbs, while the Blue Mountains trap hot air to the west. Dense concrete, dark roofs, and limited green space further amplify heat. The result is one of Australia's most severe cases of urban overheating. In January 2020, Penrith recorded a whopping 48.9°C, making it the hottest place on Earth that day. New research published in January 2026, involving Western's Professor Sebastian Pfautsch from the Urban Transformations Research Centre, found that Australian heatwaves are now five times more likely than before industrialisation. Events that once occurred roughly every 25 years now occur every five years - and that frequency is set to increase. "As extreme heat becomes normal, so must adaptation to it - from homes to streets and entire suburbs," said Professor Pfautsch. "Heat-smart design is no longer a choice but a necessity. Treeless suburbs with dark roofs and driveways only amplify heat." Western Sydney University is responding to this challenge across several major research projects: i Living with Urban Heat: Becoming Climate-Ready in Social Housing (2023-2026) - Working with culturally diverse social housing residents to develop practical, low-cost cooling strategies. Unlocking Sustainability Bonds for Urban Green Infrastructure - Investigating how sustainability bonds can finance the parks, tree canopy, and open space Western Sydney needs to reduce heat. ½ Managing Resilient Urban Green Spaces in Australian

FINANCIAL REVIEW But this week, the unmistakable redhead caught some Australians who were holidaying at the Grand Hotel San Pietro in Taormina by surprise. A series of photos posted on an Instagram account showed Hanson entering the area and making a beeline for the mining billionaire.
The degree to which Adler is a fringe figure in Jewish Australian opinion is conveyed by rejections such as this survey in The Australian Jewish News: "Australia/Israel & Jewish Affairs Council national chairman Mark Leibler, a prominent Indigenous rights activist who co-chaired the Referendum Council, said that due to the AJA's "misleading name", it is very important for people within the Jewish community, but also people outside the Jewish community, to "understand that this organisation and this person, they do not speak for us". "They do not communicate what, in any sense of the term, can be regarded as Jewish values, " Leibler said. "Some of the things that Adler has said are frankly nothing short of horrific. , »
The answer lies in how we perceive ourselves. Our movement of self-determination is too often misread through a colonial lens, rather than recognised as an expression of indigenous continuity. Indigeneity and identity are not only matters of law or history but are also matters of self-perception.
While "Israelite" captures Ti our historical and ancestral roots, "Israeli" is commonly understood as a citizen of the modern State of Israel. We propose that Diaspora Jews can also adopt it Culturally to assert continuity with our ancestors, even without citizenship. This distinction allows for dual recognition: Indigenous Israeli as heritage, Israeli citizen as legal status.
This division highlights a deeper challenge for Diaspora Jews in situating Israel within our sense of self and Jewish peoplehood. The revival of modern Hebrew shows how generations of Jews can reconnect with ancestral roots. Once confined to liturgy and sacred texts, Hebrew was deliberately revived into an everyday language linking old and new. In a similar way, Diaspora Jews can reclaim "Israeli" as a cultural and historical identity that restores ancestral continuity.
Our truest identity is not Polish, Russian, or Moroccan. It is Israelite. We are the descendants of those who spoke Hebrew in Judea, built the Temple in Jerusalem, and carried the covenant across millennia of exile. Every dispersion since has been displacement, often caused by external forces or colonial conquest.
Decolonising the Jewish mind Reclaiming "Israel!" as a cultural identity recentres Jewish indigeneity and challenges the colonial framing often imposed on our history, write Hava Mendelle and Simonne Whine. Community activists Hava Mendelle and Simonne Whine challenge the way decolonisation language is applied to Jews and argue that reclaiming "Israeli" as a cultural identity shifts how we understand continuity and belonging. Their opinion asks what it means to see ourselves through our own history rather than the frames placed on us. Read the full opinion by Hava and Simonne via our link in bio.

< THE AUSTRALIAN ~ As I've written before, British politics is a mess. But politics is downstream of culture. The political malaise suggests a cultural malaise. And culture is downstream of faith. The political crisis and the cultural malaise have taken place in the context of a decline in religious faith, and therefore transcendent purpose and meaning, in Western soci-eties. In one corner of London this week, in the vast London Olympia at Hammersmith, 4000 delegates from around the world joined the Alliance for Responsible Citizenship conference to work on all three levels - politics, culture, the role of the transcendent. It's impossible to summarise properly the scope of this conference, which has become something like a global cultural movement, a conservative version of the Davos meetings. The brain child of Baroness Philippa Stroud, who formerly ran the Legatum think tank, and Jordan Peterson, the renowned author and polymath, and Paul Marshall, philanthropist and media owner, with substantial input from Australia's former deputy prime minister John Anderson, it's attracting, among others,

But since then, Britain has been left behind. The country's output per person is now only just above that of Mississippi, America's poorest state-and that slight lead is only achieved thanks to London. Outside the capital, in places where tourists do not visit, living standards fall well below Mississippi's. Brits visiting the United States find that their currency has depreciated to the point where the pound today buys only about $1.35. British wages have lagged well behind those in the U.S., and also those in Germany, France, the Netherlands, Denmark; once you account for inflation, they've barely grown at all. Within the next decade, the typical Pole will have a standard of living equal to the typical Brit, if current trends continue.

Maurice Newman, who has a long track record of action around Atlas Network partners in Australia, was a Mont Pelerin Society (MPS) member from 1976. Newman was also listed in 2014 as one of Australia's 12 "most influential" climate deniers who used his time as ABC chairman to skew the coverage of the science. Newman was an "early driver" of Advance. In March this year, Newman described pro-Palestinian encampments on university campuses as one sign that "ideology" (rather than a moral compass) is taking over and stated, "We might as well be in communist China." Newman has a series of articles in The Australian and The Spectator about Muslims.

He has also served as an adviser to ministers in the Abbott and Turnbull Governments, advising on areas as diverse as electoral reform and northern Australian economic development. He holds a Bachelor of Laws (with Honours) and a Bachelor of Arts from the University of Melbourne. Gideon has been published in a number of outlets including The Australian, Daily Telegraph, Herald Sun, The Age and The Spectator Australia, and has appeared on Sky News, 2GB, 3AW, ABC TV and Network Ten's The Project.
Strategists uniting segments of cultural groups against Muslims The other two represent an identity coalition that the QJC (alone?) was forging in a "multicultural impact network meeting." The second individual is a "Hindu Queenslander" who is quoted on the graphic as asserting "The Greens glorify those that terrorise us. They make me scared for the future." This is not an outlier. The shared work of linking Muslims with terrorism is central to the Hindutva nationalist project, just as it is to Israel. Prime Minister Modi, for example, declared that both Israel and India face a shared threat from "radical Islam." The recent attack in Kashmir has led to calls to use the "Israel model" in Kashmir with suggestions that both Kashmir and Pakistan should be "flattened" like Gaza. There is no inference made that the woman pictured supports Hindutva ideology. It appears the Hindu Council of Australia (HCA) had a speaker at the QJC event in June 2024. The HCA may have no interest in the religio-ethnonationalist Hindutva ideology. It is noteworthy, however, that the HCA site hosts a post suggesting that an attempt to tackle Hindutva extremism is actually about "dismantling Hinduism" and an attempt to spread fear mongering against Hindus.

QJC's MIC has claimed very limited connection with Advance. Better may have had early plans to work in cooperation with Advance.

Wato car Why Does America Go to War? Fully updated from the original edition. As the retreat from Kabul shows, America goes to war not to bring democracy, or glory, but in the pursuit of profit. In The Spoils of War, leading Washington reporter, Andrew Cockburn, reveals the extent of the rot that stretches from the Pentagon and the White House, to Wall St and Silicon Valley. The American war machine can only be understood in terms of the "private passions" and "interests" of those who control it - principally a passionate interest in money. Thus, as he witheringly reports, Washington expanded NATO to satisfy an arms manufacturer's urgent financial requirements; the U.S. Navy's Pacific fleet deployments were for years dictated by a corrupt contractor who bribed high-ranking officers with cash and prostitutes; senior marine commanders agreed to a troop surge in Afghanistan in 2017 "because it will do us good at budget time." Based on years of wide-ranging research, Cockburn lays bare the ugly reality of the largest military machine in history: squalid, and at the same time terrifyingly dangerous.

he ARC is a culture war conference organisation overlapping with the National Conservatism (NatCon) circuit, with some key personnel and organisational connections. The two organisations position themselves as the intellectual faction of the ethnonationalist and socially conservative movement that dominates the transnational Right. ARC is an offshoot of the think tanks of Tufton Street, which the Guardian columnist George Monbiot has labelled "junktanks". They function as comms operations for extreme free market policy positions and controversial industry sectors, packaged as fact-based policy research. Tufton Street's front groups are both official partners of, or closely linked to, the Atlas Network based in Washington DC. Their role is to create an apparently independent chorus of voices for policy goals sought by wealthy elite donors. The Alliance for Responsible Citizenship was co-founded by the Legatum Group.

Coronavirus has ripped through private aged care homes in Australia over the past two years, but the state's publicly run homes have only been lightly touched by the pandemic. Aged care businesses, unions, lobby groups and industry experts said a number of factors had led to this: the 179 state-run homes in Victoria have more nursing staff, higher wages and are often located near other health facilities.

blog.acton.org RELIGION & LIBERTY ONLINE Alejandro Chafuen on Real Nazis in Argentina by BRUCE EDWARD WALKER • September 6, 2018 cton's Alejandro Chatuen weighed-in at - Forbes on the new Hollywood movie about the arrest and eventual trial of Nazi Adolph Eichman, Operation Finale. The movie is more than a historical reenactment for Chafuen, who recounts in his essay that a notorious Nazi once inhabited the Argentine neighborhood where Chafuen lived for 30 years. The Nazi who lived close to my family, Joseph Mengele, has been credited for being extremely astute in evading capture and changing addresses just in time. But many mistakes in official reports, perhaps some made on purpose, allowed him to avoid being properly tracked. From Argentina he moved to Paraguay and then to Brazil. He died after a stroke while swimming at a Brazilian beach not far from São Paulo. It was only in the late 1970s that I started focusing on Mengele, "the Angel of Death." Before that, my only reading about the Nazis in Argentina were the few references about the affinity between the National Socialists and Juan Perón that was recounted in Libro Negro de la

Chafuen concludes: After studying and visiting think tanks in many regions of the world, one of the most positive characteristics of the Australian scene, as compared to other markets, is the amount of collaboration that exists among different friends of free enterprise. I am certain that much of the credit should go to those mentioned in this piece. Thanks to them we expect more good news to come from down under.
Amongst the think tank donors, Chafuen does not mention Hugh Morgan or Rupert Murdoch, but he praises Gina Rinehart. He also notes Ron Manners (MPS 1998, Board 2020, Atlas Network Advisory Council). Chafuen quotes Rinehart observing: rich." Rinehart, like Manners, is a talented miner inducted into the Australian Mining Hall of Fame. I asked her about him. She wrote, "Mining for gold has contributed greatly to Australian prosperity. But my colleague and longtime friend, Ron Manners, went beyond gold. He has been mining for intellectual capital, especially the young, who deserve an Australia with continued opportunities to develop their potential in freedom." Through Mannkal, Ron Manners has been cultivating talented students. With the help of sponsors he has provided hundreds of scholarships for internships and training at think tanks not only in Australia, but also in the U.S., U.K., India, Canada and Hong Kong. Manners has been mining for intellectual gold.
Chafuen selects these bloggers and independent operators as part of the networking: The libertarian, or liberal, movement always had its dose of lone rangers and picturesque freedom champions. One who fits that description in Australia is blogger Prodos Marinakis. He created the Celebrate Capitalism campaign and "international capitalism day." Fighting against climate alarmists, Viv Forbes and his Carbon Sense Coalition also plays an important role in policy debates. The Adam Smith Club and the Institute for Private Enterprise, as they depend so much on the talents of one person, also belong to this group of independent promoters of free enterprise. Details here on Adam Smith Club, the Institute for Private Enterprise and the egregious Carbon Sense Coalition. Forbes was also the executive director of the Saltbush Club, and here commemorated by core Atlas US climate disinformation hub the Heartland Institute.
