“It’s scary to think that we have already had these populations disappear under our noses. Because of how elusive they are, we could be losing them without knowing because we’re just not regularly monitoring them, Historically there [are] articles describing platypus as being quite prolific in some waterways [in greater Brisbane]. The fact that in a 10 or 20-year timeframe they’ve gone out of some of these systems and that we’re seeing things only get worse with urbanisation and climate change – with all these impacts getting worse, it’s a glum future for the platypus.”

“mRNA vaccines can be quickly developed, they’re cheap, they’re effective, they appear safe, and you can adjust them by putting in a slightly different antigen if the virus changes its spots. But the overarching concern is, we’ve never used this type of vaccine before, so we have to do our darnedest to do the surveillance to check that it’s well tolerated.”

“The reason it’s such a prolonged approval process in Australia and New Zealand is because there is lots of double checking and reexamining of the statistics, because if we make an error, it will become an error on a big scale by the time the drug is rolled out across a large population. It’s not that uncommon that the regulator might look at the data and say, 'Well, it looks OK in terms of how it works in European people, but we’re quite worried about how this might affect Indigenous people, and the Asian population seem to respond differently too'. Australia and New Zealand are saying; 'Why would you put people at risk when if you wait a bit longer, you can get more information?'”

“It’s unprecedented in the Antarctic in terms of the scale of investment and the impact on the environment. Although it is being done in the name of science, very few scientists are enthusiastic. This is more about flag-waving. It is about firming up Australia’s presence and our claim....”

“Scott Morrison has made a significant tactical error. Clearly he’s never played poker before. I don’t mind the government keeping the door open, but what they did was lay out the welcome mat. The Chinese are filtering (our imports) without explanation. They’re not taking phone calls from our ministers. At the same time they’re rolling out a list of demands upon Australia to restore the relationship. I’m not suggesting they play the card [veto over China’s entry into the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership]; it should be sitting in our back pocket. The Chinese need to be thinking if they want to join this pact, they have to actually have proper regard for Australians.”

“Australia is not and has never been in the economic containment camp on China. No country has pulled more people out of poverty than China. And Australia is pleased to have played our role in the economic emancipation of millions of Chinese through the development of the Chinese economy. Australia desires an open, transparent and mutually beneficial relationship with China as our largest trading partner.”

“Dealings between Australia’s largest property developer – also a major political donor – and our national environmental regulator should not be secret. The wetland is supposed to be protected under Australia’s national environment law, but systemic failures in our laws mean a proposal to wreck this environment jewel on Brisbane’s doorstep have been able to reach an advanced stage in the assessment process.”

“Until the Australian government and authorities consider the anti-Chinese rhetoric [in Australia] as being racist, we will see more Chinese-Australians banding together to protect the community. The [increase of] negative stories coming out about China in Australia will only normalise the racism against Asians who are of Chinese background or who appear to be East Asian-looking”
