Bribery is an effective political tool. See the recent re-election of the Albanese government. But the rescission of a bribe also reveals people’s true thoughts – and so it has been with electric vehicles. Over a decade of writing columns there are two topics in particular that have made me feel like I’m banging my head against a brick wall – the taxation and regulation of tobacco and electric vehicle zealotry.

Australia has a rich history of horse racing – but it is at a cultural crossroads. News.com.au has found there’s a cigarette paper between people who believe the great Melbourne Cup is losing popularity, to the point where “people don’t care anymore”, and those who view it as an important institution. Earlier this year, news.com.au launched The Great Aussie Debate, a wide-ranging, 50 question survey that has uncovered what Australians really think about all the hot topics of 2025.

If you think things haven’t been easy under Albanese, imagine how you’d go under Adam Bandt. The Greens leader is so confident he will be kingmaker in a hung parliament that he’s instructed the Treasury and the Department of Prime Minister and Cabinet to draw up a post-election brief based on their policies.

OPINIONIt’s been a relatively uninspiring federal election campaign thus far. So much so that the most exciting thing to happen has been Peter Dutton’s son, Harry, joining him on the campaign trail. The 20-year-old apprentice chippy fronted a press conference with his father on Monday, saying he was “saving like mad”, as was his sister, to buy his first home but the dream seemed out of reach.

It is rather curious that China would send a spy ship to monitor the waters around South Australia straight after a Federal Election was called. After all, Chinese state media endorsed Anthony Albanese for Prime Minister in 2022 and he has largely repaired relations with the Chinese Communist Party – so why would they want to catapult the issue of China and national security into the middle of an election campaign?

Can I get a fact check on this, please?

We'll retain all our Senators, Melbourne & we’re looking good in Ryan, Wills & Richmond – we'll know more soon. While our national vote has increased, the collapse in the Liberal vote means that Labor will win the seats of Griffith with Liberal preferences, and Brisbane too.
