DEAR News Of The Area, IT doesn’t matter where you travel in the world today, you generally find we are better off in this country than anywhere else. Why else this constant crush of people hoping to emigrate to Australia? So, why do so many Australians believe Pauline could do it better than the two […]
LETTER: A vote of confidence for ordinary people in politics
DEAR News Of The Area, I WISH to make some observations made by correspondent Peter Williams (Pauline wants a unified, safe and peaceful society, NOTA, 24/07/26). Australia’s cost of living is actually 16th in the world, according to the World Population Review website. Mr Williams’ assertion that this is the cause of Hanson’s increased popularity, […]
LETTER: PM’s appalling comments should not be forgotten
DEAR News Of The Area, THE silence from Labor and the so-called feminists on Prime Minister Albanese’s appearance on the Deep Bush podcast has been deafening with Labor MPs seemingly condoning their boss’s appalling behaviour. If a male from the Opposition had made the same comments, the outrage from the Left party would have been […]
LETTER: What does Pauline stand for
DEAR News Of The Area, I RESPOND to Peter Williams’ Letter to the Editor (NOTA, 24/7/26) where he claims Pauline Hanson wants a unified, safe and peaceful society. How could she possibly bring that about? With her level of disrespect for other cultures, how could she ever manage our vitally important international relations? In the […]
LETTER: Most farmers support renewable energy

Poll after poll after poll, from Porter Novelli, 89 Degrees […]
To those who still think their difference makes them wrong
DEAR News Of The Area, THERE are minds in this world still hiding in the shadows of their own brilliance, still believing that the way they think is a mistake, a malfunction, a deviation from the path everyone else seems to walk so easily. This is for them. For the ones who were told they […]
LETTER: Stop this woman becoming PM
DEAR News Of The Area, DURING the debacle of Pauline Hanson’s speech at the Press Club (17/6/2026), one is left to ask: “What can we do to counter the possibility of this woman becoming Prime Minister?” While this possibility may be an anathema to many of us, we must learn from Trump’s victory in the […]
Letter to the Editor: Dramatic language over budget
DEAR News Of The Area, Golly, a “budget bloodbath”. Didn’t take long for our local conservative Member for Lyne to talk up a drama. Here is our representative of the parties whose mantra is smaller government and lower taxes screaming blue murder that the government is not spending more money. Fresh from their drubbing in […]
Letter from the Editor: Fond farewell
By Doug CONNOR, Group Editor AFTER just shy of six years manning the News Of The Area news desk, I have made the difficult decision to leave my role as Group Editor. Before I officially depart next Friday (29 May), I wanted to take the opportunity to offer my sincere thanks to everyone who has […]
