Putin's 'reluctance to demobilise' could cause downfall and be rapid end to Ukraine war
It is simple, Putin, like Hitler, wants to control Europe. All of Hitler's non-aggression pacts just made it easier for Hitler to gain control of more and more of Europe. The same will happen with Ukraine - a ceasefire gives Putin the change to regroup and prepare for attacks on western Europe.

Elon Musk Claims X Was Targeted in a ‘Massive Cyberattack’ from the ‘Ukraine Area’
"Ukraine area" obviously he means Russia. Maybe the fools in the White House have yet to realise that the real boss is in Moscow.

Elon Musk Claims He Challenged Putin to a One-on-One Fight Over Ukraine
Do it. Would be good; Musk defeated in under a minute, if Putin has one arm tied behind his back.

Domestic Violence Surge Sparks Urgent Calls for Reform
All this under a female Prime Minister? The best way to address this "problem" is to start educating the masses, in the education system (from primary schools up to the tertiary level) and in the media (the Thai media is full of violence against women). If a government can ban cigarette advertisements, then it can ban violence any media that shows violence against women.

Getting OaP with Super
Correct. I was working in Canberra in the 1980s. A friend from uni was working as a researcher in the policy section of social security ( I cannot remember the department's name). She was handed a research-policy paper from the Parliamentary Library or the Australian National University (I cannot remember which), and asked to check the data and analysis. Bottom line - the paper provided a 10, 20, 30, 40 and 50-year projection of Australia's population size and age distribution and its potential impact on social security payments (in then current dollars). The financial costs to social security at 50 years ahead were astronomical. The paper recommended that all workers be forced to join a super fund, and so by year 20XX the old age pension could be abolished. Etc., etc. Of course, there is the issue of the elderly who never worked in Australia, and I cannot remember how that was dealt with. Thus, the current compulsory employee superannuation idea can into being in the early 1990s.

Trump Bows to Economic Reality With Tariff Delays and Exemptions
No wonder so many of Trump's businesses have failed, he has almost zero comprehension of economics and no comprehension of international economics. America's (former) enemies must be celebrating Trump's actions which are rapidly killing the USA.
