A(nother) reminder. Before you take forecasts and predictions with anything more than a grain of salt, ask: "What's this person's / organisation's track record?" Not whether they're often quoted, or popular, or their view accords with yours. And if you don't know, ignore it.

This is good news for Queensland and for the Night Parrot. But, um, Chris Minns and Penny Sharpe, how's the Great Koala National Park going? Still logging? Asking for 8.5m NSW residents and, well, the disappearing koalas. #nswpol #auspol realestate.com.au/news/govt-buys…

Bloody brilliant. I rarely advocate for political candidates, but Rex has proven himself to be in the 'keep the bastards honest' mould. I hope he wins a seat. Our Federal Parliament will be better with him in it. #auspol

Can you imagine how Gough would thunder about today's Labor? True, he'd tear larger strips off the LNP, but I doubt he'd be happy with what he'd see on his own side of the chamber. #auspol
