It's the size of a sesame seed, but it could cause unfathomable destruction to Australia's forests and urban canopy.A beetle called the polyphagous shot-hole borer (Euwallacea fornicatus) is silently spreading through Perth and its surrounds, forcing councils to chop and chip hundreds of trees — even century-old Moreton Bay figs.So how does the tiny pest cause such massive problems?

The federal and state governments have activated Personal Hardship Assistance for eligible residents in parts of seven South East Queensland council areas due to ex-Tropical Cyclone Alfred. Individuals can receive $180 for Emergency Hardship Assistance, and a family of five or more can get up to $900 to cover essentials like food, clothing, and medicine. Minister for Local Government and Water, and Minister for Fire, Disaster Recovery and Volunteers, Ann Leahy, told Gary Hardgrave on 4BC Drive, "We have certainly been making sure that we are right behind these communities who have been impacted by Ex-tropical Cyclone Alfred." "That's why we have activated that personal hardship assistance in those areas of eligible and targeted areas of Redlands, Gold Coast, Logan, Moreton Bay, Fraser Coast, Brisbane and also Scenic Rim." "I expect there will be more activations to come, they will come through in waves as the assessments are done and the information is provided to us by local councils, and we are trying to get this information through as swiftly as possible," Minister Leahy continued.

This week was a busy one – a royal visit from the Queen, the Centenary Test and mad bulls running through the streets of Melbourne. But no story was more dramatic than the horrific shark attack off Brisbane, which seemed straight out of that recent horror blockbuster: Jaws. In this episode, we look at the men who died that day on Moreton Bay – and the self-styled warrior who set out to avenge them, propelling himself onto the world stage, where he'd remain for decades, killing sharks ruthlessly and playing a role in creating one of the 20th century's most controversial art works.For a free trial that will give you access to ad-free, early and bonus episodes:Patreon: patreon.com/forgottenaustraliaApple: apple.co/forgottenaustraliaCheck out my books:They'll Never Hold Me:https://www.booktopia.com.au/they-ll-never-hold-me-michael-adams/book/9781923046474.htmlThe Murder Squad:https://www.booktopia.com.au/the-murder-squad-michael-adams/book/9781923046504.htmlHanging Ned Kelly:https://www.booktopia.com.au/hanging-ned-kelly-michael-adams/book/9781922992185.htmlAustralia's Sweetheart:https://www.booktopia.com.au/australia-s-sweetheart-michael-adams/book/9780733640292.htmlEmail: forgottenaustraliapodcast@gmail.com Hosted on Acast.

Listen to the top News of 07/03/2025 from Australia in Hindi.
Charities and community leaders are raising the alarm, accusing Australian councils of criminalising homelessness, effectively making it illegal. Councils in Queensland and Victoria have been under scrutiny for planning to slap thousands of dollars' worth of fines on people experiencing homelessness in a bid to lower crime and move people along. This has sparked an open letter from a community group in Moreton Bay, calling on all levels of government, saying the move is both an emergency and a violation of human rights. In this episode of The Briefing, Helen Smith is joined by Beau Haywood, Nourish Street Inc founder, who faced a 25-year addiction battle and a journey through homelessness to get his take on if councils and governments are in the wrong.

South East Queensland will experience the effects of Tropical Cyclone Alfred differently. Residents of the Moreton Bay islands are facing unique challenges caused by their location, which have already begun. Member for Bowman, Henry Pike, told Gary Hardgrave on 4BC Drive, "They're very rough at the moment, and unfortunately for the residents of North Stradbroke Island and the residents of the southern Moreton Bay Islands and Coochiemudlo Island, they've now been cut off for a couple of days." "We're just concerned about what the impact of this is going to be, we're already seeing trees falling, and we had a power loss as well on Russell Island, and we know we haven't even got the front of the storm." "I'm quite concerned about what the impact is going to be and what the isolation is going to mean for those communities over the next couple of days," Mr Pike continued.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

It was announced that Gayundah Arboretum Park will close due to health and safety concerns, which will involve removing people experiencing homelessness at the site. Moreton Bay Acting Mayor Jodie Shipway told Gary Hardgrave on 4BC Drive, "Our community haven't been able to use the space for quite some time, so we have had an increase in concerns raised." "The seriousness of those concerns has caused us to need a public health report on that area down there." "It was quite damning what we received back, so we were left with no choice other than to close the site and remediate it," Acting Mayor Shipway continued.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Moreton Bay Council has voted to ban homeless people from keeping pets in public spaces, and sleeping in vehicles and vans in public spaces. Mayor Peter Flannery, the man who proposed the motion to council that was passed unanimously, told Peter Fegan on 4BC Breakfast, 'we've seen a dramatic increase, particularly in the last 12 months, of people illegal camping or claiming to be homeless.' 'That number has grown and grown significantly, as well as the complaints of people from the wider community who have come into contact with these people in those public areas,' the Mayor said. 'I've had childcare centres saying we can't go to the park anymore because there's homeless people sleeping near it and have been abusive, or schoolchildren worry about going to the park because the toilets have been overtaken by homeless people. We try to be compassionate as much as possible and reason with those people and take a sensible approach.' 'It's got to the point now that the public safety has become a critical issue now, particularly summer and the school holidays, people going to our parks, our foreshores, our beaches,' Peter Flannery continued. 'Some of these people, like you said, don't want to accept the support that's been offered to them, want to stay there because they're camping for free and we've said enough's enough for that and if you're doing the wrong thing, we want to move you on.' Mayor Flannery said it was a 'difficult decision, but we had to make it.' See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

There are multiple reasons why Australia has a housing shortage and why the numbers of new dwellings needed are simply not being built. This is something I have spoken about regularly in the past and will continue to do so, as it's the core issue creating problems for real estate consumers of all kinds – home buyers, investor buyers and tenants. Here are the latest events and announcements which help to explain why we have a housing shortage with rising prices and rising rents, problems which are not going to be fixed in the foreseeable future … ITEM 1 – BUREAUCATIC DELAYS: Sydney councils are sitting on backlog of almost 8,500 unresolved development applications and requests for development certificates, according to NSW government data. There are over 5,000 unresolved development applications across the Greater Sydney area, plus 3,300 active “complying development certificates”. Five councils each have more than 300 local development applications that are waiting to be finalised. Data from the Department of Planning Housing and Infrastructure lists the Inner West Council as the worst offender, with 456 “active” DAs waiting for a determination. The Northern Beaches, Hills Shire and Cumberland Councils also have major backlogs. Thousands more “complying development certificates” are also adding to the backlog, despite being designed to give faster approvals to developments that meet certain requirements. Some councils are taking more than a year to approve homes. And some developers are waiting up to a decade for projects to be approved. In my view, one of the core issues is that many councils have a NIMBY attitude to development, especially high-density residential. They simply don't want developments to be built and do everything they can to frustrate builders. ITEM 2 – NOT FINANCIALLY VIABLE: In Perth, the rate of apartment completions has dropped to its lowest levels since records began in the 1980s. A new Property Council report says that, to meet the housing targets set by the National Housing Accord, WA would need to be delivering five times the number of apartments per year that it currently is. The Sky High report says there are more than 10,000 apartments approved for WA but effectively on hold and unable to be constructed. The major issue is that projects are just not financially viable – because the cost of delivering an apartment is generally higher than the market is willing to pay, so projects simply don't stack up. Only luxury apartments are economically viable projects. The report blames climbing construction costs - driven by labour shortages and competition for labour from government and mining sectors. The report says: “Developers are reporting that construction cost estimates are now almost double the cost of similar developments five years ago.” The Property Council expects that costs will climb even higher as the new national construction code and bargaining agreements imposed by government take effect. This is problem not only in Perth but right across Australia. Developers are scrapping unit projects because the costs are so high, making them financially unviable. The Australian Construction Industry Forum says it's a worrying trend for a country that needs more, denser homes – not only apartment towers but medium-rise and townhouse developments in existing suburbs – to tackle the chronic undersupply of housing and to ensure longer-term affordability. The forum's Construction Forecasting Council chair and chief economist Nerida Conisbee says: “It's very, very expensive to build apartments. Many projects aren't going ahead.” ITEM 3 – WORKER SHORTAGES: A recent report reveals that Australia needs 130,000 additional workers to combat labour shortages in the construction sector. This has prompted calls for rapid reforms from both federal and state governments to attract and retain skilled labour. The report says the nation is on track, in 2024, for the worst year in new home builds in over a decade, with an 9 per cent decline in new building starts, totalling just 158,000 when it needs to be 240,000 per year to meet the Federal Government's fanciful target of 1.2 million new homes in five years. Construction starts for detached houses have dropped by 10 per cent, while higher-density projects have declined by 6 per cent. If this pace continues, Australia could see fewer than 800,000 new home starts over the five years, leading to a shortfall of over 400,000 homes compared to the National Housing Accord target. The decline in apprenticeship numbers further compounds this crisis, with completions down 8 per cent and commencements down 12 per cent in the past year. ITEM 4 – POLITICAL POLICIES: The Housing Industry Association says a home building recovery is possible because buyer demand is rising, but state government housing policies risk stalling the revival. HIA Senior Economist, Matt King, says demand for new homes nationally is accelerating - largely due to high population growth, low unemployment, stable incomes and the absence of interest rate rises for the past year. King says activity generally is picking up, but there are big differences across capital city and regional markets. Sydney remains an outlier and there is still no indication of a near-term rebound in residential building in the big city. King says: “New home building in the Sydney basin remains exceptionally low, primarily due to high land prices and excessive housing taxes and infrastructure charges.” Australia-wide, the HIA says the detached home building sector looks promising, but the unit sector remains constrained and is unlikely to experience recovery before mid-2025. King says: “The sector continues to be dampened by skilled labour shortages, business credit constraints and the aftermath of significant building material cost escalation. “The extent of the recovery in new home building will be determined by the ability of governments to ease the barriers to home building. “Recent state government plans to increased surcharges on foreign investors and introduce taxes on short-term rental accommodation are unhelpful at a time when stability is needed to achieve the target of 1.2 million homes.” King says the rate of home building is being slowed down by government failure to implement policies such as expedited land releases, concessions on property taxation, and accelerated development approval time frames. ITEM 5 – HIGH LAND COSTS: The rapidly prising cost of home sites is one of the biggest barriers to easing the housing shortage. New figures for South East Queensland indicate that the cost of residential home sites has jumped by as much as $120,000 in a year – up 21 per cent in one LGA where it now costs as much for a block of land as the median home did just two years ago. This is the City of Brisbane LGA where land prices rose 8.7 per cent in the September quarter alone, pushing the median price of a block of land to $685,000 – which is $3,000 more than what an established home cost in this area in June 2022. The second biggest annual surge in land prices occurred in the City of Ipswich where the median block rose 15 er cent or by $48,000 to hit $360,000, with the third fastest pace set by Moreton Bay, where prices rose by 10 percent to $415,000. The cheapest blocks of land in South East Queensland are in Logan City in Brisbane's south, where a third of SEQ land sales are now occurring – with the median price at $350,000 after a rise of almost 10 percent across the year. The Gold Coast had the second highest SEQ land price at $619,000, after an 8 percent rise in the past year. So, you can imagine what a new house on a block of land costs, when the land alone costs well over $600,000 – as it does in the City of Brisbane and on the Gold Coast. Why does it cost so much? Primarily because of bureaucratic delays, governments taxes fees and charges, and high interest rates – all problems created by our elected representatives.

G'day Folks, The Red Fire Ant was first spotted in Brisbane, Queensland in 2001. Shortly after this a campaign of eradication and fear mind you, began. According to the Department of Agriculture and Fisheries: Under the Biosecurity Act 2014, everyone, including individuals and organisations, has a general biosecurity obligation (GBO) to take all reasonable steps to prevent the spread of fire ants. Queenslanders are legally required to report suspected sightings of fire ants within 24 hours of their discovery, and depending on the nests location take action to treat the pest. If you do not do this, penalties may apply. The National Fire Ant Eradication Program aims to find, contain and destroy fire ants in South East Queensland. Their 10-year Eradication Plan involves ... and i quote "an intensive and targeted eradication effort over South East Queensland, spanning from Lockyer Valley in the west to Redlands in the east, north to Moreton Bay and south to the Gold Coast". So why is this such a big deal? Part of this i believe stems from our history of introduced species wreaking havoc on our local environment and wildlife. Think the cane toad, rabbits and red foxes. Poor decisions were made in the past and there appears to be a stigma. Enter the Red Fire Ant. They do have a painful sting and can attack en mass if a nest is disturbed. Much like most ants we already have such as bull ants, meat ants and green ants. Eradication of an ant species in my humble opinion isn't possible. They're far too resilient. Containment too is also is a fools errand. So why is the Australian Government and Queensland State Government spending hundreds of millions of dollars, if not into the billions now, on trying to eradicate them? What measures are being employed to take on this unwinnable challenge and are they too drastic? Are those eradication measures themselves causing untold damage to sensitive ecosystems, domestic animals, livestock, even people? Well for this episode I am joined by Simon Mulvany from BeeTheCure.com and SaveTheBeesAustralia on Instagram as well as Sarah McGuire, a local Queensland resident turned activist whose town of Samford is in the crosshairs of the National Fire Ant Eradication Program. We aim to hopefully answer some of these questions and give us their testimonies and opinions on the Fire Ant Fiasco. +++++++++ Update: The water testing results have now been made available.
