Beyond the Story: 10-Year Record of BTS will be out on 9 July, ending feverish speculation that the previously untitled book was a Taylor Swift memoir
The guessing game began this week when a mysteriously untitled book, scheduled for publication in July and known only as “4C Untitled Flatiron Nonfiction Summer 2023”, appeared.
The scant available details about the book were read as clues by both fans of Swift and BTS. The author and subject were initially set to be revealed on 13 June: 13 is Swift’s favourite number, but the date is also the 10th anniversary of BTS’ first single, No More Dream. Speculation about the book made it a bestseller on the Amazon and Barnes & Noble websites earlier this week, as fans of both Swift and BTS placed pre-orders.

‘It’s a hard no from me’: We’re already seeing what Voice ‘could look like in practice’We are already seeing what an Indigenous Voice to Parliament could look like in practice, says Sky News host James Morrow. This comes after the Queensland government passed new legislation to set up an independent institute to negotiate what could be dozens of treaties with various Aboriginal tribes and organisations in the state. The legislation will reportedly also push for changes to the school curriculum, as well as a three-year truth telling commission. “Historical grievances, politicised curriculums, and race-based representation in our parliaments?”, Mr Morrow said. 'I'm sorry, I know the PM has said that the Voice is just a 'polite request' to make sure Indigenous voices are heard – it sounds great, but we are already seeing what that could look like in practice. “It's a hard no from me.”

Budget cuts to veterans’ pathway program is ‘a major disappointment’: Soldier On ChairmanSoldier On Australia Chairman Peter Leahy says losing $1.5 million annually is “a major disappointment” as it will have “quite a dramatic impact” on the services and support being provided to veterans. “We’ve currently got around 7,000 people who are using a pathways program – which is pathways out of the military and into the civilian world,” Mr Leahy told Sky News host Sharri Markson. The pathway program is “predominantly about getting them employment or getting employment for their spouse or someone else in the family so they can continue in the community,” he said. “We are going to have to adjust our program, not only in terms of its scope but also in terms of its geographic spread.” If you or anyone you know needs help: Lifeline: 13 11 14 Beyond Blue: 1300 22 4636 Kids Helpline: 1800 55 1800 Open Arms: 1800 011 046
