- Comment on Chinese warships came within 10km of Australian waters: Defence 5 days ago:
So the claim is they were provocatively close to Australian waters, not in Australian waters, and the waters that they were close to are the EEZ which it’s generally regarded that they are allowed to be in anyway?
All States may conduct military activities in the EEZ for peaceful purposes, including a foreign State, provided that the operating State has due regard to the rights and duties of other States.
If this is something other then fear mongering then I must be missing something. Admittedly I can only read the first two paragraphs.

- Comment on What you need to know about why house prices aren't coming down 3 months ago:

Of the 227 sitting MPs and senators, only 12 declared no property ownership.
Several senators are on the list, although we cannot be sure this provides an exhaustive picture because the property holdings of senators’ spouses are not published.
Some in this group declared a financial interest in trusts but were not required to disclose any property held in those trusts.

“Free Range” is regulated, but the threshold is unusually low compared to other countries.
Pastured or pasture raised is a much stronger standard but as far as i can tell not legally protected.
