One by one, the lifeboats are fleeing the impending wreckage of Adore Beauty.

is the latest to strap on a life jacket, her escape from the online make-up huckster flagged to the market on Wednesday.Since its October 2020 float by Quadrant Private Equity, at an offer price of $6.75 a share, things haven’t gone quite to plan for Adore Beauty .P/ASX All Technology Index in June, its shares now a fifth of their IPO value in a wipeout that has obliterated $500 million in market capitalisation.

O’Shannessy was signed up at Adore with 868,502 shares, paid for with a $868,502 limited recourse loan to the company. Not even management is confident enough to claim Adore Beauty as “Australia’s No.1 pure-play online beauty retailer” without adding a worrying fine print supplemental that this is “based on management estimates”.

The cost of Adore’s $96 million worth of sales in the first half of last year worked out to 67 per cent. And on $113 million of revenue in the first half of this financial year? 67 per cent.Who’s bright idea was it to float Adore before it had solidified its brand recognition? Or was it that the pre-IPO brand-building campaign aimed overwhelmingly at simply flogging its noxious stock?

Family of Afghan interpreters still stuck and at risk, one year after Taliban took controlMore than 200,000 Afghans have sought humanitarian protection in Australia and almost half are still waiting for their applications to be considered. These 'interpreters' (amazing how there are suddenly tens of thousands of them) and their families need to get on with their lives in Afghanistan and comply with their government. The Taliban has already given amnesty to collaborators. Government without a moral compass.

‘No one in Taiwan’ wants to be ruled by ChinaThe Australian’s Will Glasgow says the declaration from Chinese ambassador Xiao Qian confirming Beijing's willingness to use force to control Taiwan was “huge news in Australia” but not in the island nation. “The threat of war from the PLA towards Taiwan is as old as the People’s Republic of China,” he told Sky News host Chris Kenny. “That threat, if it was ever acted on, if it was ever successful would be followed by a re-education is just sort of assumed as of course what China would do, of course what the Chinese Communist Party would do.” Mr Glasgow said it was good an Australian audience heard China’s policy for Taiwan and it was “not at all popular” in Taiwan. “No one here wants to be ruled by the Chinese Communist Party and why would they?” he said. Demonstrably untrue Yes Chinese need to strip right's and freedom from all free thinking freedom to live as you please is truly terrifying to Chinese scum
