    Home burglaries increase by up to 19% during the summer holiday period in Australia, with 31% of homes still being left unlocked. Security experts recommend locking all doors and gates, avoiding hiding spare keys under rocks or pot plants, using motion sensor lighting, maintaining the appearance of an occupied home, and ensuring electronic security systems are serviced before leaving for holidays.

    Families of the Bondi terror attack victims are calling on the federal government to launch a royal commission into anti-Semitism, despite Prime Minister Anthony Albanese rejecting the proposal. New South Wales police will carry long-arm weapons at Sydney's New Year's Eve celebrations for the first time, with the Premier also considering deploying the army to protect Jewish communities. The debate centres on whether a royal commission or review is the appropriate response to investigate the attack and rising anti-Semitism in Australia.

  • Brigitte Bardot dies aged 91
    Dec 28 2025
    Brigitte Bardot, the iconic French actress and singer who revolutionised 1960s cinema, has died aged 91 at her home in the south of France. The blonde bombshell starred in nearly 50 films including the controversial 1956 hit 'And God Created Woman', which was banned by the Vatican for being too sexualised. After retiring from acting in 1973, Bardot devoted her later life to animal rights activism, establishing the Brigitte Bardot Foundation, though her legacy remains complicated by later controversies including fines for inciting racial hatred.
