One year after Americans across the country voted overwhelmingly to send President Donald Trump back to the White House, Democrats have secured a comeback in blue states, capturing several key offices in last Tuesday’s off-year elections.

Across Japan, Argentina and Poland – three very different countries with very different histories – we're seeing a quiet but unmistakable pro-family turn. It's a simple but powerful idea: when families thrive, the nation prospers.

The Albanese Government has unveiled its inaugural climate risk assessment and, according to the document, Brisbane will soon be the lost city of Atlantis and Townsville a mass grave.

New York City has chosen its next mayor. But even as the Australian media heaps praise on Zohran Mamdani, the Muslim socialist’s victory speech betrayed his radical agenda for the world’s most influential city.

New laws lower the threshold for hate speech to such an extent that a person could be criminalised for what authorities decide their words "might" lead to. This is a bad law. It is anti-free speech and anti-Australian.
