Treasurer Jim Chalmers says Australia’s political divide is shifting from left vs right to government problem-solvers versus parties that exploit fears — highlighted by a One Nation win in Secret Harbour. Meanwhile, Aussie drone experts head to Nepal and Tibet for flood rescue as Canberra pledges $3 million more (bringing total aid to $11 million) for 38 still-missing Australians. A new national register to track racism against First Nations people gets $2 million in funding to fuel smarter anti-racism action. On housing, Chalmers defends Treasury’s forecast — countering bank claims of a 10% price drop with a 2% projection over two years — arguing economic factors like interest rates, not tax changes, are driving market softness.

Australia’s ski resorts are shutting down early in 2026 due to the warmest winter on record — rain instead of snow, melting snowpacks, and a climate crisis reshaping the industry. With three out of four recent winters failing to deliver natural snow, resorts like Mount Selwyn and Mount Baw Baw have already closed, and more are expected to follow before October. Record-breaking rainfall and unseasonably warm temperatures have made snowmaking increasingly futile, while long-term data shows snow depth at lower elevations has plummeted by over 38% in the last 25 years. Even with new tech capable of producing snow up to 20°C, the future of skiing in Australia is being rewritten — and it’s not looking like powder paradise anymore.
