The riots aren’t about Zuma anymore. They are rooted in joblessness and inequality - which, ironically became far worse under Zuma’s economic carnage and corrupt, self-serving rule. #ZumaUnrest

Really proud of my little bees. They’ve produced some honey I’m thrilled with. It’s a bio-active Leptospermum - a native manuka. And it’s delicious. We’re @mounthenryhoney on the insta. This, and our four other varieties, are available online. mounthenryhoney.com.au

The High Court of Australia has today issued its decision on the case involving Cardinal George Pell. I do not intend to comment on that judgement. But I do wish to address the impact on our community.

Somebody decided to invite Dr. Rishi Desai onto Fox. I don’t think they’ll be asking him back.

I have found myself thinking about hugging my friends and family with a very wholesome thirst lately. When this is all over, I will never stop cuddling any of them. My column today: theguardian.com/world/2020/a…

We’re being asked to keep our distance from other people as part of the global effort to slow the spread of COVID-19. @beyondblue is asking people to remain socially connected as they do so. Pick up the phone and talk to friends and loved ones, or connect online.

Most people will not benefit from wearing a surgical mask. Masks are of benefit to people who are sick so they don’t cough on others, and health care workers who have frequent, close contact with sick people. More info at: health.gov.au/sites/default/…

Advice remains to stay home when possible - if you must go out for essentials or healthcare please stay away from other people and wash your hands regularly. If you are sick you MUST NOT leave home for any reason. Call your doctor. health.gov.au/ministers/the-…

1700 on Monday, 3400 on Wednesday or Thursday, 7-8000 by next weekend. True number by then 70-80,000 possibly. Primary school maths. Someone should go figure. No magic fairy will bring that down. 14-20 days behind Italy. Believe in maths not magic.

The World Health Organization warns young people: “You are not invincible.” COVID-19 could "put you in hospital for weeks, or even kill you. Even if you don’t get sick, the choices you make about where you go could be the difference between life and death for someone else.”

I am OBSESSED with Noisy By Nature and have forced my kids to listen to it and now, every time we're in the car, they want to listen to Ann talking about elephant seals "fluffing" and guess what kind of cicada that is. Get on board this adorable train, people.
