With the capture of the village of Passchendaele on 6/11/1917 the Third Battle Of Ypres now known as simply Passchendaele was called off on this day in 1917. The appalling weather conditions and the capture of the village and ridge bought it to a conclusion.

I always find it challenging to remember Aussie troops of the 6th Division were sent to Britain in 1940 to help defend Britain in case of Nazi Germany invading! So much happened with the Diggers later in WWII in Middle East and elsewhere that this chapter is often overlooked.

How bad are conditions getting in Australia?
In the same week: David Jones, a 188-year-old Australian institution, enters administration. The Salvation Army announces its withdrawal from aged care after more than 100 years, affecting thousands of elderly Australians. Both point to serious pressures from rising costs and financial sustainability. The aged-care sector also faces growing regulatory and investment demands.
At what point does the Albanese Labor Government acknowledge that the cost of doing business, employing Australians and providing essential services has become a major national problem? These aren’t just headline, they’re jobs, livelihoods and vulnerable Australians whose futures depend on getting economic policy right.

Across the high-profile major corporate collapses, restructures, and offshoring announcements hitting Australia over the last few weeks, the total number of confirmed or severely threatened roles stands at
16,621 positions.
If you look purely at the planned corporate layoffs and restructures (excluding the David Jones insolvency crisis), the total is 10,621 jobs explicitly targeted for elimination or offshoring to overseas hubs like India and the Philippines
This isn’t including Whyalla ..

In February, Premier Malinauskas was arguing that migration was essential to staffing aged care. Yet in November, he's warning that the aged-care shortage is pushing South Australian hospitals towards breaking point. So how many additional aged-care workers and residential beds have actually become available since February and how does that compare with the increase in demand? That's the distinction that matters: announcements and expenditure versus actual capacity delivered. The Premier has evidence for his concerns about federal aged-care capacity but the SA government's own performance also deserves scrutiny, particularly after an independent review found the state's health system had deteriorated despite increased investment. Ultimately, South Australians need more than another funding announcement. They need to know when the backlog will start falling, when ambulances will spend less time ramped, and who is accountable if those improvements don't arrive.

Authorities have executed 26 search warrants across Australia as part of a major three-month operation targeting $235 million in actual and potential government fraud.
The extensive multi-agency crackdown spans seven ongoing investigations involving the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS), Centrelink/Services Australia, the Department of Veterans' Affairs, and the Department of Education.
Five individuals have been charged so far, though the $235 million figure covers the entirety of the active investigations.
Several larger matters remain open, including claims of around $100 million linked specifically to NDIS providers.
Federal and state investigators continue to pursue additional people of interest across the country.
We can thank @PeteZogoulas and @DrewPavlou for these arrests 👏👏👏

That’s right Aussies you’re paying $36k for some foreigner buffoons at a climate scam event in Turkey so they can have free latte’s. That’s Labor for you.

Remembrance Day, like all occasions, can be marred by politics and other irritations - as seen in UK this week. It is important to note that true remembrance begins within us and our communities. No amount of foolishness by those in power can prevent us from honouring our fallen.

All beef and Dairy products sold at Coles contains Bovaer.
Woolworths and Aldi have, on the back of significant public back lash, made public announcements more recently stating that their meat and dairy suppliers were not currently known to be using this chemical.
Coles are nothing more than a corporate disgrace. They would rather poison people and make grand announcements on the climate and methane. tyackhealth.com.au/health-ne…

10/11/26 The poor behaviour from wind developers continues, this must stop. The criminal element from Andrews, Allan and Carroll governments must stop. Civil disobedience is a direct result of poor process and poor planning process @sonyakilkennymp
