Hundreds of people hit the streets of the Lebanese capital on Saturday to mark 100 days of anti-government demonstrations and denounce a new cabinet line-up

Protests demanding the removal of politicians deemed incompetent and corrupt have gripped Lebanon since 17 October andAnti-government protesters use sticks to break through metal security gates outside the central government buildings in Beirut.But protesters say the ministers were chosen along sectarian lines and that the line-up does not satisfy their demands for a government of independents and technocrats.

The protest movement has largely been peaceful since it began more than three months ago but has turned violent in recent weeks. "We demand a salvation government... not one whose members are selected according to quotas", which the protest movement had mobilised against, she said.

These are the top 10 songs of the Hottest 100The top 10 had a strong female bent, with five songs by female solo artists. Here they are, including tracks from Billie Eilish, Mallrat, Tones and I and more. Probably the worst hottest 100 top 10 ever. Musak-ing hard...and fuck me...a RATM cover that is no better than a pub cover band trying to emulate the original but also falling short. Zero artistry in that 're-imagining'. Glad the last time i listened to the top 100 was back in 1999. Just played the top 10 and even hilltop hoods song sucks. Triple j used to be rebellious. Now it’s conformist. Sad.
