CW: decisions made at you, not with you.
Labor doesn’t want to stop doing #robodebt for old people. https://www.abc.net.au/news/2026-08-19/labor-stands-by-algorithm-aged-care-assessment-tool/107055252
This is a statement of their heartfelt values: with an absence of humanity, Mark Butler, with the support of the Labor Party Room and Cabinet, prefers robotically-evaluated “consistent outcomes” over tending to peoples’ basic needs. #4corners

@mojo Essential viewing indeed. Authorities asleep at the wheel. I see this as just the first step in a major policy review for all our benefit. Well done #4corners

Food fraud is a multi-billion-dollar business, and Australian consumers are paying the price.
This major two-part Four Corners investigation uncovers misleading origin claims, undeclared ingredients, adulterated food, and unethical global supply chains using forensic testing and undercover reporting.
If you care about what's really ending up on your plate, this is essential viewing.#4corners #fourcorners #food #foodfraud #consumerrights #australia

Hmm. Looks like next week #4Corners will have a lot more on slavery in the supply chain. #AusPol

4 corners on the shock that some of my food comes from China. https://www.abc.net.au/news/programs/4corners Years ago I sat next to a food inspection expert on a plane. He told me that the Asian food processing plants are much higher quality than Australian, because they draw the attention of people like him. The idea that food in Asia has lower standards is basically a 1950s throwback. #4corners

Everyone wants to live longer, but are we being sold hope instead of science?
The booming longevity industry promises youth, vitality and even disease prevention, yet many treatments have little evidence behind them and exploit gaps in regulation. As billions flow into anti-ageing biotech, Four Corners asks the question that matters: is the industry racing ahead of the science? -
The latest Four Corners investigation is a damning indictment of how we're "solving" the housing crisis. We're handing public money, planning concessions, and loans to private developers—and in return, renters are getting "affordable" housing that often isn't affordable at all.
This isn't a market failure; it's a policy failure by design. When you outsource public good to profit-driven developers with zero accountability, this is the predictable result. We need genuine public housing, not corporate welfare dressed up as a solution.

New Four Corners investigation lays it bare: BHP talks big on climate while quietly shelving billions in green projects in WA.
Leaked docs suggest “net zero by 2050” is more PR than plan — all while raking in $22 billion from Pilbara iron ore.#FourCorners #4Corners #BHP #ClimateAction #ClimateCrisis #Greenwashing #AusPol #WA #Mining #NetZero

Seems #4Corners tonight will be interesting to Aussie Tech types: The tactics of the multi-billion-dollar tech giant behind tasers.
The usual weekly teaser article goes into, amongst other things, how an Aussie has built a proof of concept app to be warned of police officers nearby - by detecting their Axon Bluetooth devices such as their body cameras and tasers.

“As humans continue to pollute these environments with nutrients from wastewater treatment plants, urban, industrial and agricultural runoff, and as we continue to change and warm the climate, we will see more of these events; so monitoring and expanded research is needed.”

I'm getting the sense that #TheGreens are going to scoop a lot of new voters in this weekend's #SAVotes #Election because the major parties are quite simply promise-breakers, xenophobes or rubbish respectively

Watched #4corners today. They interviewed #liberal members in #Toowoomba, city of my birth. I am, more than ever, ready to proclaim the Toowoomba Bypass as the greatest and most necessary infrastucture project ever.

The current affairs programme #4Corners have done a slam dunk story about how the gambling industry has captured the regulators and the politicians in charge in Australia.
There is also a hilarious sting in the tail as Senator David Pocock, a sporting legend and someone with more integrity in his little finger than the entire government, has been banned from the Parliament Sporting Club for looking into the murky web.

Last night's filler #4corners was worse garbage than usual. The only doctor who appeared in support of the so-called #HavanaSyndrome was one who smoked. The climax was a presentation to the US congress. My god people, you're distracting them from their important investigation of UFOs, UAPs, whatever.
