    03/06/2026 | 4 mins.
    🗞️ HEADLINES

    Australia’s economic growth has hit the brakes, due to cost-of-living pressures, modest government spending as well as cyclone disruptions to mining and export activities.

    Lifelong Labor voter and comedian Dave Hughes has launched a fiery attack on the federal government over its sweeping changes to capital gains tax and negative gearing.

    Another Adelaide beachgoer has experienced a terrifying "Indiana Jones moment" after sinking up to her waist in quicksand while walking her dog at Glenelg North.

    The voice behind Disney classics such as Aladdin's "A Whole New World" and the title track from Beauty and the Beast has died aged 75.

    Bunnings has retained its crown as Australia’s most trusted brand for the tenth consecutive quarter, followed closely by fellow retailers Aldi and Kmart.
