Chris Minns and NSW Police are still going overboard in police brutality relating to Herzog’s visit to Australia. Doubling down even further.

This is disgusting levels of overbearing and overpolicing.

Fuck Chris Minns, fuck NSW Police. #NSWPol

The apartment tower at 29 Hunter St Parramatta is currently covered in scaffolding, with signs that read "Hitech Remedial Builders".

Another quality building from Jean Nassif and our good friends at Toplace.

One of the worst organisations in the country is NSW Police. Corrupt, mismanaged . . . and corrupt.

Liberal Party chooses ex NSW police officer as candidate.

I just need Dexter the robot to confirm these two are a perfect match.

The toxic trifecta fuelling a surge in family violence

Mixing football, alcohol and gambling is like adding “jet fuel” to the severity of violence against women and children.

People, mostly from working class suburbs, lost a record $9.3 billion on the pokies in the past year.

That's in New South Wales alone!

"Punters lost a record $9.3 billion on NSW poker machines last year – a surge of 8 per cent on the previous 12 months – as a sophisticated lobbying effort by the gambling industry stalls progress on political pledges to reduce harm in suburbs across Sydney.

"Newly released figures reveal $785 million was lost in the Canterbury-Bankstown area alone, as well as $720 million in Fairfield, $535 million in the Cumberland local government area, $420 million in central Sydney and $355 million on the Central Coast.
...
"The losses represent about $179 million each week – or $1.1 million per hour – with most of the damage occurring in some of Sydney’s most disadvantaged suburbs, according to the Liquor and Gaming NSW report.

"The state government’s independent panel on gambling reform produced a series of harm minimisation recommendations in December 2024 which were savaged by the pubs and clubs industry as going too far, and by reform advocates as not doing enough."
