- Hundreds gather at vigils around Australia to remember Kumanjayi Little Baby
- Date posted
- 3 days ago
- Description
- Community vigils were held across Australia on Thursday to honour the five-year-old Warlpiri girl, whose body was found one week ago after a frantic five-day search.
Kumanjayi Little Baby, whose given name is no longer used in line with cultural protocols, has been described by her family as a friendly girl who loved the colour pink. Her mother released a statement through Northern Territory police saying she and her son, Kumanjayi’s big brother, “miss and love you”.
Her family have since called for silence while they conduct sorry business, and vigil organisers told people to “leave flags at home” and gather in “shared sorrow and respect”, not in protest.

- Date posted

- Description
- The AFL has again found itself embroiled in allegations of on-field homophobia. St Kilda’s Lance Collard was handed a nine-week suspension for using a homophobic slur. Collard denied the claim. His penalty was reduced on appeal, but the reasoning given by the appeals board has angered many – where they appeared to suggest homophobic language was acceptable “from time to time”.
Former West Coast AFL footballer Mitch Brown, who last year became the first player to come out as bisexual, says the decision is disappointing and dangerous. He speaks to Nour Haydar.

- Date posted
- 11 days ago
- Description
- Ultramarathon swimmer Andy Donaldson completed the Dam to Dam Challenge from Lake Argyle to Kununurra in the East Kimberley on Tuesday, becoming the first man to complete the gruelling endurance swim. Adding to the difficulty was the fact the river in remote Western Australia is well known for its reptilian inhabitants; the freshwater crocodile population numbers 5,500 – one croc for every 10 metres of his swim. Fortunately for the 35-year-old and his team, freshwater crocodiles are smaller and more timid than their saltwater counterparts and unlikely to approach humans.

The group, designated by major western powers as a terrorist group, is varyingly characterised as a democratic political party in Lebanon’s parliament, as an organisation that provides social services and other times as a puppet of Iran.

Speaking at the National Press Club in Canberra ahead of the 12 May federal budget, Butler says there are about 760,000 people on the NDIS scheme at the moment, meaning at least 160,000 will no longer be able to access the NDIS within four years. Butler says that instead of costing more than $70bn at the end of the decade, the cost for the scheme will be brought down to about $55bn

Henry opened his statement by saying 'I could make this very short, and simply say just do it'. He then went on to add that gas is part of 'the natural endowment this country provides to the people of Australia' and that the only way people benefit is 'through the operation of the taxation system'.

In perhaps the most unusual spectacle ever seen at the end of the 21.1km (13.1-mile) race, robots flew over the finish line ahead of the humans for the first time in Beijing on Sunday. And there wasn’t a bead of sweat in sight.
While the living, breathing humans collapsed in a familiar heap on the ground, red-faced, clad in silver foil blankets and fantasising about a long lunch, the humanoids stood tall and unscathed.
The machine that won the race in Beijing also eclipsed the human world record, set last month.

Researchers from the University of New England have been desperately trying to help more than 300 turtles they say have been left to die in the Gwydir wetlands. The NSW state water agency stopped environmental flows after a landowner complained about overflow on their property. UNE conservation biologist Prof Debbie Bower called the scene a 'disaster'. 'These deaths are incomprehensible, given there is environmental water sitting in the dam. This could save the turtles, but WaterNSW is just not allowing its release,' she said.

The US president made the comments after being asked if he was satisfied with Australia’s increased defence spending. "Well, I’m not happy with Australia because they were not there when we asked them to be there," Trump says. "Australia was another one. They were not there having to do with Hormuz, the Hormuz strait. So I’m not happy, I’m not happy with them."
"We’ve not received a specific request in relation to the strait of Hormuz," Australia's defence minister and deputy prime minister, Richard Marles, said on Friday.

The Victoria Cross recipient, once Australia’s most lionised soldier, faces five charges of war crime murder over allegations he killed unarmed civilians during his service with the Australian SAS in Afghanistan.
Each charge carries a potential life sentence in prison. Roberts-Smith has not yet entered a plea but has always strenuously denied any wrongdoing.
In Sydney’s Downing Centre local court on Friday, Judge Greg Grogin said the risk Roberts-Smith would flee Australia to avoid court, or that he would interfere with witnesses or evidence, could be mitigated by strict reporting requirements.
Roberts-Smith will be released on bail under a requirement that he repo...
