they did this with another gop, she was a memory care facility, but they kept it secret(i think it was a GOP house member)

4·6 天前GetUp is running a campaign calling on Coles to end its partnership with Palantir, if you’re interested:
It’s used by many First Nations people in a similar way to how ‘killer’ is used as a positive adjective.

‘Third parties’ is maybe a needlessly confusing choice of words here…
Only, it turns out the supplier lied - is the restaurant in some sort of trouble?
ABC coverage somewhat addresses this:
Businesses must keep records of all seafood bought for three months, and suppliers face stiff penalties if they fail to provide correct information to food service providers.
In NSW, Fair Trading can impose penalties of $2.5 million for individuals, and businesses can be fined $50 million or 30 per cent of the annual turnover from the previous year.
I can’t say I’ve noticed, but have you tried using Shazam or a similar music identifying app? Even if that turns up no results, that’s probably an indicator that it’s GenAI (assuming the sample you record is clear enough).
Climate 200’s ability to donate to independents across the country stands to be significantly curtailed by new electoral funding laws passed in the last parliament which Ms Steggall and Ms Spender have both suggested are biased towards political parties.
A political party would have greater flexibility to prioritise resources and support multiple candidates than a collection of like-minded independents working together without a party structure.

I think this is the main reason, even if they deny it. This move doesn’t make sense without it. Bit of an oversight from SBS to not mention it, honestly. It’s also mentioned in the Guardian’s coverage (linked in arbilp3’s comment).
Ok, if you scroll all the way to the bottom of the site.
In fairness, at the very top of the page they have “AN INDEPENDENT PUBLIC INQUIRY …” and then the first text below the navigation bar is “INDEPENDENT CIVIL SOCIETY REVIEW”.

That reminds me of this little bit of history: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v61h4AaiUF0
Pauline still sings ‘young and free’ in protest I reckon 😆
1·25 天前From the Guardian article that this post links to:
Weeks after Chebii’s death, members of the Kenyan diaspora staged a protest outside the hotel where she died, calling for answers and transparency about what had occurred.
…
“The circumstances surrounding her death, together with the time it has taken to receive substantive updates from the relevant authorities, have left many community members with questions and concerns.”
From an article linked in the body of the previous post:
The march, which proceeded to Meriton, was described by organizers as peaceful, respectful, and well coordinated. Community members turned out in solidarity with Chebii’s family, calling for transparency and answers regarding the circumstances surrounding her death.
