    Meta removes 500,000 teen accounts under Australian ban
    Jan 11 2026

A survey reveals Australians rate local councils highest among the three tiers of government at 56% approval, compared to 46% for state governments and 39% for federal government. Political commentators debate both the practical impact of social media age restrictions and whether Australia should reduce its three tiers of government.

    Jan 8 2026
    British content creator Alex Hendy, known as 'The Schooner Scorer', has built a following of over half a million people by travelling the globe rating beers and searching for the perfect 10.0 score. His method involves visiting pubs and venues, sculling a local beer on camera in a single take, and providing an unbiased rating whilst showcasing the venue. He balances his beer-tasting mission with daily running, operates a 'drinking club with a fitness problem', and hosts events to bring people together, with plans to potentially launch his own beer and pub ventures in the future.
