Prime Minister Scott Morrison will meet face to face with Donald Trump before this week's G20 Summit in Osaka, Japan, where Scott will implore Trump to end the trade war with China.  On Wednesday, Morrison said the collateral damage from the dispute is spreading:  "The impact of any further deterioration of the relationship will not be limited to these two major powers," he said, noting that Australia "will not be passive bystanders" as the US and China relationship sours the world.  The SBS also reports "the leaders are also set to discuss North Korea, developments in the Middle East and the G20 agenda".  Trump will also meet with his BFF Russian President Vladimir Putin, but the subject is "none of your business."

A European Parliament investigative committee says Nigel Farage should face "highest penalty" over a "serious breach" of the European Parliament's code of conduct.  After a month-long investigation, the Advisory Committee on the Conduct of Members says Farage wrongly accepted more than AU$815,000 in gifts and favors from insurance tycoon Arron Banks, a zillionaire pushing for the Brexit.  These alegedly included a chauffeur-driven car, rent and bills on a mansion, and trips to the United States to meet with right-wing politicians.  Farage has in the past denied the allegations.  The EU Parliament has not specified what the punishment should entail.

Canada's government for the first time has placed far-right groups on its list of outlawed terrorist organizations, specifically the neo-nazi scum outfits "Blood and Honor" and "Combat 18".  Both are local chapters of an international ring of nazis.  "I’m hoping this is just the beginning and that there will be more, but this is a really good first start for Canada," said Canadian Anti-Hate Network chair Bernie Farber, who described the groups "extremely violent neo-Nazi organizations".  Three Shiite militant groups supported by Iran also made the list.

Dead-end loyalists to the failed "Islamic State" are menacing a group of Australian women and their children stuck inside a refugee camp in Syria, reported threatening to burn them in their beds.  This is after the removal of eight Australians from the al Hawl camp, including the children and grandchildren of notorious jihadist Khaled Sharrouf - the jihadists somehow took that to mean that the remaining Aussies are traitors.  "Since the extraction, the risks for the 50 or so children and women who remain in the camps may have heightened,'' said Save The Children international policy director Matt Tinkler, "We need to keep in mind that this is still a war zone and it's absolutely no place for a child."  Tinkler said the people in the camp are "sick, malnourished, and traumatised".

Tests have revealed a new flaw with the troubled Boeing 737 MAX 8 aircraft, which were grounded in March after two crashes Lion Air flight 610 off Jakarta and and Ethiopian Airlines flight 302.  Those disasters killed a combined 346 people.  In simulator tests, US Federal Aviation Administration pilots discovered that a microprocessor failure could push the nose of the plane toward the ground.  It is not known whether the microprocessor played a role in either crash.  However, now that the fault is known, Boeing is required to fix it - which means that the worldwide fleet will not be back in the air as soon as airlines and Boeing had hoped.
