Overview
- A 36‑year‑old man has been charged after what police say was an alleged carjacking in Sydney’s west that led to a pursuit and left another man with a cut hand.
- Police say two children were in the vehicle during the chase, raising immediate questions about child safety and how the incident unfolded.
- The Adelaide Crows have referred a vile direct message sent to captain Jordan Dawson to police so officers can assess whether it breaches criminal laws.
- Economists and farmers have publicly warned that One Nation’s proposal to sharply cut migration would reduce labour supply, push up production and consumer prices and could increase the risk of recession.
- Taken together, the stories show law-enforcement responses to violent crime and online abuse and a broader policy debate about migration that could have tangible effects on household costs and farm operations.
