How we pick stories for AfD

Our editors prioritise relevance and timeliness. We choose pieces that affect daily life — food prices, fuel levies, major trials, or big sporting moments — and anything likely to spark conversation. Each article under AfD is checked for accuracy, fitted with clear headlines, and tagged so you can jump straight to what matters most to you.

For instance, under AfD you might see coverage of a major fuel levy hitting farmers, a milestone cricket wicket, a tense political absence altering opposition strategy, or a local cultural event that draws national attention. That mix helps you follow both the big-picture trends and the stories that hit home in your town.
