Tonight's @abcnews finance report, in which I point out that inflation is falling, not rising. The annualised rate in April was 3.6%, NOT 6.8%.

Annual inflation rises to 6.8 per cent as ASX slumps to two-month low...

The Australian share market has slumped to a two-month low after China's manufacturing industry contracted again, and annual inflation has risen to 6.8 per c...

Sitting here stewing another Victorian lockdown, I have some questions

Alan Kohler: What the hell is going on with vaccines and quarantine?

In August last year, Prime Minister Scott Morrison announced that “Australians will be among the first in the world" to get vaccinated. We're still waiting.

My @TheNewDailyAu column today: when we start opening up at 56% vaccinated (of the pop) there’ll be 10s of 000s of cases (according to to Doherty). We better not get sick or have an accident, and need a hospital bed.

Alan Kohler: So many pandemic questions, so few answers, so much spin

Australia appears to be the only country in the world manipulating vaccination data to make it look better than it is, writes Alan Kohler.

It’s pretty clear from the response to my tweet that some people hate fat people because their own hearts are so full of hate that they need to dump all their toxic self-loathing onto someone who they think won’t fight back Well, not this little fat duck She got teeth

. @TheNewDailyAu has published Paul Keating’s oped, in reply to Peter Hartcher, that the @smh refused to published. Here it is

Paul Keating: The SMH misrepresented my views. This is my reply

Paul Keating submitted an opinion piece to the Nine newspapers in response to an article written by their international editor. They declined to publish it.

Unbelievable. Pence tweets the below, and Dr Kathrin Jansen, Pfizer’s head of vaccine development, immediately says: “We were never part of the (government partnership) ... We have never taken any money from the U.S. government."

McCrann is mansplaining that wind turbines don’t work when there’s no wind, and solar panels don’t work when there’s no sun. The world is trying to make this work to save the planet. He just shits on it as insanity. Good stuff Terry

When the wind don’t blow

Britain has something like 11,000 so-called wind turbines. They are mostly scattered all over the green hills of England, Scotland and Wales, but 2300 of the bird-killers are located offshore all...

The great housing paradox: Everyone agrees that housing affordability is one of Australia’s biggest economic problems, if not the biggest, but promising genuinely to fix it will ensure that you don’t get elected. @TheNewDailyAu

Australians can’t afford homes. Politicians can’t afford to fix that

Australia's housing conundrum pans out like this: Prices must come down but any party which achieves that will be thrown out of office

Inflation is what the ABS says it is, the rest is bullshit. The problem is that monthly data is incomplete, presumably because the ABS only has enough budget to do the full thing every 3 months. They must get the money to do it monthly.

He promised to run the country like he ran his business. It ended with Rudy Giuliani outside Four Season Total Landscaping next to a dildo shop, after a staffer mistakenly thought the empty parking lot was a Four Seasons hotel.
