‘Yellow vest’ protests turn violent as they enter 23rd weekend | Sky News AustraliaAt least 126 people have been arrested in Paris on the 23rd week of the yellow vest protests as violence erupted on the city's streets.\n\nFlares were thrown and dozens of motorbikes and cars were set on fire as riot police fired tear gas at protesters around Place de la Republique on Saturday.\n\nWhile early protests back in November focused on fuel tax hikes, the movement soon developed into a wider cause against social inequality and the leadership of French President Emmanuel Macron.\n\nDemonstrators were further incensed this week when some of the country's wealthiest prioritised huge sums of cash to the restoration of fire-ravaged Notre-Dame Cathedral, but were apparently less willing to donate such sums to the poor.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n Keep going yellow vests don't let up

Rugby Australia ‘has sold out its fans’ and Folau’s free speech | Sky News AustraliaSky News host Andrew Bolt says Rugby Australia has ‘sold out its fans’ and Israel Folau’s free speech in serving Folau a breach notice after a recent Instagram post. \n\nThe football player posted on his Instagram account, condemning ‘drunks, homosexuals, adulterers, liars, fornicators, thieves, atheists and idolaters’. \n\nMr Bolt says while he does not like what Folau posted, he should be able to express ‘his very conservative Christian beliefs’. \n\n\n He expressed them, and he’s now paying the price for expressing them. He chose to share them, to violate the agreement he had and now he’s suffering the consequences of his choices. I demand that he be sacked for saying that we drunks will go to Hell! this is outrageous! Could always just play rugby

Look to France - 2 churches desecrated every day. How about dealing with the victims of pedophile priests, and getting rid of these animals from the Church.
