Albanese held undeclared honorary membership to Marrickville Golf Club promised $6m

Prime Minister Anthony Albanese held an honorary membership to the Marrickville Golf Club in his Sydney seat and did not declare it. The club was promised $6 million at the 2025 election under an invite‑only scheme. The ABC reported the membership and the $6 million pledge. The promise was made as part of an invite‑only funding arrangement at the 2025 campaign, and Mr Albanese’s connection to the club was not disclosed. The undeclared membership links the prime minister directly to a local organisation that received a major election pledge.

Clarke hits century as Notts recover to 377 against Hampshire

Joe Clarke scored 105 as Nottinghamshire recovered from a shaky 20-3 to post 377 on the first day against Hampshire. The century anchored a strong middle-order response that pulled the title hopefuls back into the contest after an early collapse. BBC Sport reported Clarke’s hundred helped Nottinghamshire steady their innings and compile a competitive first-day total. The 377 gives the visitors a solid platform in the match and a boost to their aspirations in the title race. Nottinghamshire’s recovery from 20-3 to a three-figure lead on day one will put pressure on Hampshire going into the next session, with the match situation now favouring the side that posted the larger score.
