Dutton’s ‘immature’ comments on Trump and Australia

The former PM’s comments were immaterial to Australia’s current trade negotiations with the US:

> National Weather Forecast: Unsettled for eastern Aus and WA, warm to hot elsewhere
> 
> Video current as of 3:00pm AEDT 11 March 2025.
> 
> Latest forecasts and warnings:  or the BOM Weather app. 

Shing’s media release read:

> This means that the land remains owned by the government.

She said the Flemington development will be managed by a private consortium, dubbed “Building Communities”, while the government was calling for expressions of interest for the North Melbourne development.

Shing said:

> We are continuing our work in partnership with not-for-profit housing providers to build hundreds of social and affordable homes in the communities where people want to live. Increasing the volume of new social housing on these sites by 39% will give more Victorians the modern, energy efficient, accessible, safe and secure homes they deserve.
