‘You've got a two-tier system': Nigel Farage reacts to Harbour Bridge demonstrations
Reform UK Leader Nigel Farage discusses the 'two-tier system' taking place in Australia and other Western nations regarding the rise of pro-Palestinian demonstrations. Police estimated 90,000 demonstrators took part in the 'March for Humanity' through the heart of Sydney, which shut down the Harbour Bridge from 11.30am to about 5pm, although it was originally scheduled to end at 4pm. 'What you are seeing in Australia, as we are seeing in London, is the effective surrender to the pro-Palestinian mob,' Mr Farage told Sky News host Paul Murray. 'They are scoring victories across the Western world because governments, police forces, the authorities are frankly now just too scared to stand up to them.'

A $200 billion boost to the economy – but it may mean losing your job
A combination of artificial intelligence and better use of our personal information could deliver a $200 billion boost to the economy over the next decade, the Productivity Commission has found, while warning it may cost some Australians their jobs. As the nation's second-largest company slammed a proposal from the commission that would increase its annual tax bill, the agency urged Anthony Albanese to reject calls from within his government to impose binding regulation on AI, saying it could leave everyone worse off. In its third report before this month's economic roundtable, at which 23 hand-picked experts, business and union leaders will map out ways to lift the country's productivity growth rate, the commission said data and digital technologies were the modern engines of economic growth. Likening the possible gains from AI to the way steam engines helped begin the industrial revolution, the commission said the emerging technology could underpin a surge of productivity over coming years. Loading It said productivity by workers could grow by 4.3 per cent, which, based on the current size of the jobs market and working hours, could lift economic output by $116 billion over the next decade. Benefits from allowing businesses and individuals to access and share data that relates to them, such as making better spending decisions, could potentially add another $10 billion a year through higher productivity. Commissioner Stephen King said new technology had driven productivity growth since the 1960s, which had improved living standards threefold since. 'With the right policy approach, AI technology and innovations in data could help Australia get back on the path to growth,' he said.
