Australian police can now hack your device, collect or delete your data, take over your social media accounts - all without a judge's warrant.

The Australian government has been moving towards a surveillance state for some years already.

Explainer - IS-linked New Zealander Suhayra Aden is coming to New Zealand because Australia revoked her citizenship, but Aotearoa didn't do the same thing, and there are good reasons for that.

An estimated 375 people were left behind in Afghanistan when the Government stopped evacuation flights, and a “second phase” of the evacuation effort is far from beginning.
