    Australia’s $248 Million Scam Epidemic And The King’s Birthday Controversy

    07/06/2026 | 13 mins.
    🗞️ HEADLINES

    Professor Richard Scolyer, the Australian cancer researcher who turned his own brain cancer diagnosis into a groundbreaking medical trial, has died aged 59.
    Australians lost almost a quarter of a billion dollars to scams in just three months — but there are signs the crackdowns are starting to work. We've got the numbers, the tactics to watch out for, and what authorities are doing about it.
    A former supermodel has filed a rape complaint in France against the ex-head of Elite Model Management — a case that could blow open some very dark corners of the fashion industry.
    Good news at the bowser: fuel prices are near pre-conflict lows and reserves are strong. Bad news: a tax discount keeping prices down expires at the end of the month. Enjoy it while it lasts.
    The King's Birthday Honours list is out, with 949 Australians recognised for their contributions to community, sport, the arts and more
    And a quiet royal wedding in the Cotswolds — plus why Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie making an appearance was actually the bigger story.
    Plus: our self-professed resident 'royal nutter' breaks down the King's Birthday — the history, the controversy, and why Queensland and WA are doing their own thing.
