  • Years of drought conditions, a recent heatwave of consecutive temperatures over 40°C, the hottest day on record for Melbourne (46.7°C / 116°F) and even hotter elsewhere in Victoria, strong winds, lightning strikes, flying embers and finally arsonists, all attributed to the firestorm! Those caught up in it didn't stand a chance and my heart truly breaks when I see the images of the burned-out cars on the roads of the people who were trying to escape and who just couldn't make it!

  • Don't like Rudd,but his expression of real empathy, was a refreshing change from his usual pompous,practitioner of spin.
