I’ve lost faith that Australia knows how to discuss religion

The Essendon-Thorburn saga highlights that never before have Australians known so little about the foundational text of Australia’s biggest religion. And never before, it seems, had such strong...

Thanks to everyone who helped share the story of my war refugee mother. What becomes of those desperate people fleeing depends on countries like Australia. We can and should do more.

These days we celebrate Mum’s birthday on November 15. What’s a few days, or possibly months either side, when it’s a miracle she’s alive at all?

Thanks @MaryLloyd4 ❤️ I look at the photo of mum as a 12-year-old at school in Newcastle and try to imagine the journey she made to get there. Extraordinary.

Thanks for the wonderful response to my #binnaburra piece yesterday. Anyone interested in making sure it wasn't an obit and getting BB 2.0 happening sooner rather than later can donate to this GoFundMe 🌿💚 gofundme.com/f/friends-of-bi…

Replying to @harrisonwriter
You know, since reading your article I’ve been thinking where I’d like my ashes spread, and I think I’d like them to be added to the Ashes urn. That way no dirty Englishman will ever touch my remains.

An ode to Binna Burra by long time visitor @harrisonwriter. Perfectly blends the personal and the realpolitik of climate issues. This is the Binna Burra piece that had to be written 10daily.com.au/views/a190910…

Incredibly sad. Have been visiting this heaven with my parents and now my children almost every year since I was 4. Was only there in July and due to go again in October. Will still be going, to help rebuild.

Every questionable boundary is reviewed until the right decision is made for the benefit of the game. Why not for wickets? It's utterly absurd that everyone knows the right decision except the ump within seconds. #Ashes
