The minority Liberal Government must act swiftly to negotiate a final pay offer that recognises and addresses their outstanding concerns and remaining key priorities of the ANMF and their membership. Our hardworking and dedicated nurses and midwives are exhausted and running on empty. Budget Estimates revealed that $25.9 million was spent on overtime for nurses to May 2023. This money could have been better spent on hiring new nurses to take pressures of the existing workforce. The Rockliff Government and new Health Minister Guy Barnett must work constructively with the ANMF and its membership to provide improved workplace safety, measures to manage fatigue and burnout as well as deliver competitive wages.

'Since the full impact of monetary policy actions can take as much as 18 months to work its way through the economy, we will continue to look closely at available data to determine what, if any, additional actions we may need to take,' Harker said in a speech at the Wharton Initiative on Financial Policy and Regulation.

Chinese leader Xi Jinping called on nations to spurn decoupling and the cutting of supply chains, one day after his nation imposed limits on exports of two key metals used to make chips to counter Western restrictions on Beijing. The world's No 2 economy wants to work with nations to 'reject the moves of setting up barriers, decoupling and severing supply chains', Xi said in a virtual speech to Shanghai Cooperation Organization leaders. 'We should make the pie of win-win cooperation bigger, and ensure that more development gains will be shared more fairly by people across the world,' he said, according to a text of the comments released late Tuesday (July 4) by the official Xinhua News Agency .

Absence makes the heart grow fonder, so an old saying goes. In the case of KZ Tandingan, she was able to write a whole new song for her husband TJ Monterde when he went away for almost a month due to his concert tour. During the media launch for her song 'Dito Ka Lang' at the Academy of Rock Studio, Tandingan proudly showcased her love and pining for her husband while they were separated for what she said was their longest period apart since they started dating nine years ago. According to the singer-songwriter, she felt like she lost direction in her life when Monterde left, that's why she decided to redirect all her energy into writing for a new song.
