As President Donald Trump celebrates his birthday, we ask people who have worked into their 80s themselves about what it takes to keep going.

#PaulineHanson continues to attract support from #Liberal ranks, with former #Coalition senator #HollieHughes to host the #OneNation leader at her pub in western New South Wales this weekend.

Hughes was a federal senator from 2019 to 2025, but left the parliament after losing a preselection fight and not being re-elected last year. Hughes quit the Liberal Party in November, and was strongly critical of her former colleagues for undermining then-leader #SussanLey, who was later replaced by #AngusTaylor in a partyroom coup.

Hughes owns a pub in #Rydal, outside #Lithgow. On Saturday, Hughes said Hanson would appear at the hotel for an event called “Pauline In The Pub”. A poster published on Hughes’ Facebook page states the event is sold out, and advertises: “join us for a big night!”

Hughes wrote alongside it: “Well I think Saturday night might be even more of a party!”

Several people commented on Hughes’ post, asking if she was joining One Nation.

Rydal is in the federal seat of #Calare, held by independent #AndrewGee, a former #Nationals member who quit the party in 2022. #auspol

Went up to Hassans Walls near Lithgow. It's a beautiful spot and its wheelchair accessible!

Just watched Harry and the Hendersons with my family and was struck by the timeliness of some of its themes. Asked ChatGPT to draft something…

There a mobile ice creamery coming to Lithgow tonight. It's a sunny day & currently feels like 6C/43F but will feel like -1C/32F when they close up. I'm guessing it'll only be those born and bred here who'll be having that. I'm inside with a thermal singlet on under my top lol. #winterinaustralia #lithgow

Well! That was a bit chillier than expected. The bureau estimated a bulb low of -2°C at dawn, we got a bulb of -6 plus a windchill of -4.

It's nice and sunny today, though; chilly t-shirt weather of 6 with a couple of degrees windchill. Beautiful.
