Abetz in, Barnett out as treasurer in Tasmanian Liberals cabinet shuffle
Former federal MPs Bridget Archer and Gavin Pearce are new faces in Premier Jeremy Rockliff's latest cabinet, Roger Jaensch has been dumped, and Deputy Premier Guy Barnett moved on as treasurer. Ms Archer has been appointed to the demanding health portfolio, replacing Jacquie Petrusma, who has stepped down to focus on her recovery from a serious hamstring injury she suffered in June. Mr Pearce will be the minister for primary industries and water, and veterans affairs, replacing former children and youth minister Roger Jaensch. Mr Barnett has been moved from the treasury portfolio following an immense backlash over this year's state budget, which projected that net debt would grow to almost $11 billion in the 2028-29 financial year. Eric Abetz will take on the portfolio. Mr Rockliff will have no ministerial responsibilities in his new-look cabinet after he was re-commissioned by Governor Barbara Baker on Wednesday, saying he wanted to concentrate on his duties as premier. "It's important that with the new make-up of parliament that I'm able to dedicate the time to working across all areas of parliament and the crossbench, so I can have greater opportunity and investment of time in collaboration and listening and learning from all members of parliament," he said. Mr Rockliff said Ms Archer, who has also been appointed to the new ageing portfolio and as minister for Aboriginal affairs, would be a great addition to his cabinet. Mr Rockliff said Mr Barnett had not been dumped as treasurer, but was instead taking on "increased responsibility" by also adding the justice and small business portfolios. "There was a range of areas of responsibility, and I want to ensure that each member of parliament has the right workload balance to be able to support them in making key decisions," he said. Education Minister Jo Palmer will also become the children and youth minister, and be responsible for the closure of the Ashley Youth Detention Centre. Mr Abetz will remain responsible for the government's proposed AFL stadium, in a renamed role as minister for Macquarie Point urban renewal. Mr Rockliff said he was confident his new cabinet would remain in place for the next four years, despite his government being expected to face a no-confidence motion as soon as parliament resumes on August 19. Labor Leader Dean Winter, who met with all five Independent MPs on Thursday as he continued his bid to form a minority government, has confirmed his party or a crossbench MP will move a no-confidence motion. The premier said Mr Winter had "had learnt nothing" from last month's state election, where Labor suffered a 3.1 per cent statewide swing against it. "What Tasmanians want is a stable parliament, a government that works across the parliament in the best interests of Tasmanians and a government that can get on with the job of delivering key areas of our agenda, but also key areas of passions for other MPs as well," he said. Ms Archer, who topped the poll in her seat of Bass after being defeated at this year's federal election, said she looked forward to taking on the challenge of the health portfolio. She said the government had made great strides in reducing the elective surgery waiting list under Ms Petrusma's leadership, and hoped to "continue the momentum". "I very much look forward to being able to work collaboratively with the parliament and across stakeholders in our community in what is, I think, one of our most important areas of responsibility in northern Tasmania and right across Tasmania," she said. Mr Rockliff said he had great admiration for Ms Petrusma, and "her diligence over the course of the last 15 or 16 months as she has dedicated her time to the health system".

It was pitched as the opposite of the dark web, an "ethical" version of the internet raising as much as $19 million from backers sold on an Australian man's promise of the "Lightweb".

Plumber shortages: The Aussie states up sh** creek
New research has revealed which states are seriously lacking in plumbers crack, and it has some states up sh** creek. Conducted by Canberra-based plumbing company J&J Plumbing Services, state-by-state job vacancies for plumbers were analysed across Australia in May 2023, April 2024, and May 2024. The study reviewed the number of plumbing ads posted during this period and compared it with 2024 population estimates to reveal which states have the highest demand for plumbing professionals. The Northern Territory came out on top, with an average of 7.63 plumbing ads per 100,000 residents. 'This is approximately 47 per cent higher than the national average of 5.19,' the report found. 'NT reported an average of 20 plumber job listings, with no change between May 2023 and May 2024.' Coming in second was Western Australia with an average of 7.18 plumber job ads per 100,000 residents, approximately 38 per cent higher than the national average. 'Western Australia averaged 216 plumber job ads, with the highest number of ads in May 2023 at 228, while the lowest was in May 2024 at 214,' the report noted. Plumbers, the only profession where you can take a leak and fix it at the same, were also in hot demand in Victoria, with an average of 6.17 plumber job ads per 100,000 people, or 19 per cent above the national average. 'Victoria averaged 432.33 plumber job ads, with the highest number of ads in May 2023 at 474, while the lowest was in May 2024 at 420,' the report said. 'Gloriously neglected' worst house has roof (mostly intact) A J&J Plumbing Services spokesperson said that regions like the Northern Territory, Western Australia and Victoria were seeing a steep rise in plumber job listings per capita. 'Such demand can be attributed to a growing population, ageing infrastructure, and a widening skills shortage in the trades sector,' the spokesperson said. 'Without timely workforce development, Australians could face longer wait times, higher service costs, and more pressure on emergency plumbing services.' South Australia ranked fourth, with an average of 4.83 job ads per 100,000 residents, or 6.93 per cent below the national average. South Australia averaged 91.33 plumber job ads, with the highest number of job ads recorded in May 2024 at 95, and the lowest in May 2023 at 87. Perhaps, teh City of Churches has had some latrine intervention. Queensland came in fifth, with 4.76 job ads per 100,000 residents, which is 8.28 per cent below the national average. Queensland averaged 267.67 plumber job ads, with the lowest listing in May 2023 at 253, while the highest was in April 2024 at 268, the report noted. The Australian Capital Territory came in sixth spot, recording an average of 4.64 plumber job ads per 100,000 residents, followed by New South Wales (7th) at 3.59, and Tasmania (8th) at 2.72.
