Such are the values being taught in these schools.
Close them down - they are a blight on our society

Another 18 NSW people died from #covid19 in the past day.

Why are they described as elite? They are students at an expensive school. Does not make them βeliteβ. That term perpetuates the unearned privilege that leads to conduct like this.

Groceries are higher, mortgage and rent is higher, petrol is higher, council rates are higher, utilities are higher. Yet my pay (yours too) hasnβt risen at all. Donβt let the rich lie to you about βthe economyβ, they only have their own financial interests in mind. Workers unite.

Just heard from my publisher that they have to ditch remaining stock of Questions Raised by Quolls because it bit another book (itβs taking up warehouse space). So if you want to buy it from a bookshop go do that now! Otherwise youβll have to buy it from some bloke in a pub (me).

Over 1 million species now face extinction, many within the next few decades. We are facing multiple crises at the same time.
There is no planet B, there is no time to waste. We are losing more than time every single day. #ActOnClimate

Let's be clear: the Pakistani people did not do this to Pakistan ββ we all did, and the high-emitting nations are most responsible.
Unless we end our species' addiction to fossil fuels, every country in the world will remain in the crosshairs of the climate breakdown.
