Because of the very dry conditions in out-back Australia, streams and rivers can often become dry leaving only a few water-holes where stock are able to drink

This tune is a traditional Scottish Melody and the words are by A. B. Paterson who is generally referred to as Banjo Paterson. Banjo is one of our favorite poets.

Once a jolly swagman camped by a billabong,
Under the shade of a Coolibah tree,
And he sang as he watched and waited till his billy boil,
You’ll come a Waltzing Matilda with me.

Waltzing Matilda, Waltzing Matilda,
You’ll come a Waltzing Matilda with me,
And he sang as he watched and waited till his billy boil
You’ll come a Waltzing Matilda with me.

………………..

Down came a jumbuck to drink at that billabong
Up jumped the swagman and grabbed him with glee,
And he sang as he shoved that jumbuck in his tucker bag
You’ll come a Waltzing Matilda with me.

Waltzing Matilda, Waltzing Matilda,
You’ll come a Waltzing Matilda with me,
And he sang as he shoved that jumbuck in his tucker bag
You’ll come a Waltzing Matilda with me.

…………………

Up rode the squatter mounted on his thorough-bred
Down came the troopers One Two Three
Whose that jolly jumbuck you’ve got in your tucker bag
You’ll come a Waltzing Matilda with me.

Waltzing Matilda Waltzing Matilda
You’ll come a Waltzing Matilda with me

Up jumped the swagman sprang in to the billabong
You’ll never catch me alive said he,
And his ghost may be heard as you pass by that billabong
You’ll come a Waltzing Matilda with me.

Novo (e polémico) projeto lei francês despoletou bloqueios de estradas , incêndios e motins que já fizeram cinco mortos. França prepara “grande operação” para “restabelecer a ordem republicana.” O primeiro-ministro australiano disse esta segunda-feira que a situação na Nova Caledónia era “realmente preocupante”, numa altura em que a Austrália tenta retirar os seus cidadãos do território ultramarino francês, após uma semana de tumultos. “As autoridades francesas têm-nos fornecido atualizações regulares. A situação é realmente preocupante“, declarou Anthony Albanese à televisão australiana ABC. O chefe do governo disse que Camberra identificou 300 australianos que demonstraram vontade de abandonar a Nova Caledónia,

McBride jailing reinforces need for whistleblower reforms

MEAA is appalled at the sentence for almost six years in jail that was given to whistleblower David McBride by the ACT Supreme Court on Tuesday. McBride has been jailed for sharing classified documents with ABC journalists which revealed alleged war crimes by Australian soldiers in Afghanistan. With Australia having slipped to 39^th on global press freedom rankings, governments at all levels must commit to protecting whistleblowers and journalists. The public has a right to know what its governments are doing. Without whistleblowers and journalists, corruption can flourish. A mature democracy does not shy away from scrutiny, so it’s time our political leaders truly embraced transparency and accountability.
