ABC News (Australia) has adopted "gonna" in place of "going to". Heard it used several times this morning during just 2 minutes of couch blather & weather. ABC was once the epitome of spoken English, but it's slid into the murk along with everything else today.

strangerCaught giving false evidence, David Ossip tries dodging questions as Commr Bell demands he answer on his claim the Oct9 Opera House protest was held “before” Israel's military response. Toomey SC reveals Gaza was being hit by IDF airstrikes on Oct7.🙄 Another exposed witness.💥
I’m sick of this fucker and his cowardly Govt and their self selective policy directions. www.abc.net.au/news/2026-08...
NSW government rejects key advice from own inquiry's hate speech findingsThe Minns government has rejected key advice from a review it commissioned, which recommends hate speech laws be extended to protect more members of the community.www.abc.net.au
retired NSWSC judge John Sackar KC recommends expanding police powers to flatten the hierarchy of “protection” created by politicians capitulating to pro-Israel lobbyists. The idea that an outfit as racist as NSW police can stop racism remains patently absurd. www.abc.net.au/news/2026-08...
After failing to prove his claim that the Palestine Action Group was “celebrating” Oct 7, David Ossip is asked if he can admit his evidence is wrong here too. Cornered but too shameless to admit it, takes it on notice & says he ‘wasn’t expecting the question’ Sneaky liar. 🙄

A second man, Edwin Lopez-Cornejo, has died at Delaney Hall, the inhumane ICE detention center run by private prison contractor GEO Group. GEO Group’s profits have soared by over 700% since Trump has been back in office. Imagine profiting from death and suffering. Deplorable.
