‘Socialist mentality': Vic government's decision to give Indigenous names for new schools

Sky News host Rowan Dean says the Victorian government's decision to give new schools Indigenous names is 'childish' and shows an 'undergraduate socialist mentality'. 'I think Monty Python is … secretly running Victoria,' Mr Dean told Sky News host Andrew Bolt. 'It's childish again, it shows that undergraduate socialist mentality … and it's stupid and I'm sure it's a monumental waste of taxpayers' money.'

Netflix's 'top notch' series starring Line of Duty actress hailed 'brilliant' by fans

Gina McKee stars alongside Homeland actor Damian Lewis in The Forsyte Saga, a Netflix period drama series that has been hailed by viewers as 'timeless' Netflix drama The Forsyte Saga has been praised as "incredible" by viewers who said it "sweeps you into another time". ‌ The acclaimed series is adapted from author John Galsworthy's novels and chronicles the trials and tribulations of three generations of a wealthy Victorian family. ‌ Damian Lewis of Homeland fame portrays solicitor Soames Forsyte and Line of Duty actress Gina McKee - who was born in Peterlee in County Durham - stars as his wife Irene. The 10-episode drama also features Rupert Graves from Sherlock and King Arthur's Ioan Gruffudd. ‌ Originally broadcast in 2002, the series is now on Netflix and is attracting a host of new admirers who are captivated by the Forsyte family's dramas and scandals, reports Chronicle Live. Numerous viewers have branded it essential viewing, with one declaring: "Tour de force performances from the entire cast. Very moving story with many emotional moments. Worth the trouble. "I love to watch this every five or 10 years," commented another viewer. "Long enough so I don't remember everything. It's such a top notch production. The costumes, the properties, the drama of it all just sweeps you into another time. "The cast are excellent and the intricacies of each character are so beautifully developed. People are messy, they don't always colour within the lines and this family certainly demonstrates just how family dynamics, entanglements and disfunction can warp and skew things for generations to come." ‌ "If you enjoy period entertainment this is a must," one impressed viewer noted, while another praised the "excellent acting, staging, production, costumes, make-up, sound". "Ensemble cast captured and held the audience attention," they continued. "It is a magnificent show," another person chimed in. "You can not miss it. Love is complicated. No one is absolutely right or wrong." ‌ Some admitted to being "in tears" whilst watching the drama, which explores Soames and Irene's troubled marriage. "Beautiful and so well acted that I cry every single time," one confessed. Another viewer shared: "Unexpected plot evolves in suspense filled episodes. Character development excellent. You come to know these peoples and get quickly involved in the story. I want to watch again." "Fantastic timeless series!" someone else enthused. "Watched three times since 2002 and still hits the spot. Brilliant!" The Forsyte Saga is currently available on Netflix

Allan government ‘pandering to the minority' with latest Indigenous naming policy

Sky News host Steve Price has slammed the Victorian government for "pandering to a minority' by deciding to name new schools after Indigenous words rather than suburbs. The Labor state government in Victoria has declared that First Nations language names will be used for all new state schools and campuses from this year onwards. 'Why are we surprised, given Victoria is deep into a secret treaty negotiation with Indigenous groups, costing millions of dollars that we are not even allowed to know about,' Mr Price said.
