Chinese car sales set to skyrocket

More than two in every five new cars sold in Australia will be made in China within a decade in one of the biggest shake-ups in the automotive industry in years.  The move, fuelled by motorists switching to low-emission vehicles, is expected to challenge the dominance of car brands manufactured in Japan and Thailand.

New era begins as parliament opens

Australian politicians have marked the beginning of a new era as the 48th federal parliament opened in Canberra. Veteran MPs and fresh-faced senators alike sat shoulder to shoulder marked on the pews of the Wesley Uniting Church as they marked the opening of the parliamentary year in Canberra on Tuesday. Prime Minister Anthony Albanese hoped for the health and wellbeing of all Australians during the church service, and remarked on the tradition as a “wonderful way” to start the term.

Allies: ‘War in Gaza must end now’

Twenty-eight countries, including Britain, Australia, Canada, Japan and a host of European nations, have issued a joint statement saying the war in Gaza “must end now” – the latest sign of allies’ sharpening language as Israel’s isolation deepens. The foreign ministers of countries – also including Australia and Canada – said “the suffering of civilians in Gaza has reached new depths”. They condemned “the drip feeding of aid and the inhumane killing of civilians, including children, seeking to meet their most basic needs of water and food”.
