This week's Scam of the Week rounds up five stories. The federal government commits another $4.6 billion to the Osborne shipyard, taking its total contribution to $8.5 billion for a submarine construction yard that still has no submarines in it. An independent Aukus inquiry hears that each submarine begins life carrying 650kg of uranium enriched to 93 percent, and Australia has no agreed plan for storing the resulting nuclear waste.

Labor's national conference blocks a resolution acknowledging genocide in Gaza before it reaches the floor. Labor's own push to reform gambling advertising gets watered down to a narrow prime-time ad ban, weeks after the party banked more than $4 million from gambling industry donors.

KPMG sacks a senior partner over the Lendlease audit leak scandal it initially cleared itself of. A supposedly independent news outlet turns out to be a rebranded One Nation Facebook page publishing AI-written articles under a fictional byline. And Australia's antisemitism envoy Jillian Segal tells a Royal Commission that UN Gaza casualty figures are inflated. She can't produce evidence for the claim, so Michael West Media asks the UN directly. Its office disagrees with her.
