Foreign Minister Julie Bishop used Australia's turn before the United Nations General Assembly to sound an alarm about North Korea:  "The regime of Kim Jong-un is openly defying the United Nations Security Council" by testing intercontinental ballistic missiles and nuclear weapons, she said, adding: "The security of millions of people is at risk as a result of North Korea's refusal to abide by international laws and norms."  North Korea is now threatening to test a hydrogen bomb in the Pacific Ocean, the latest in the nuclear pissing contest between Kim Jong-un and Donald Trump that the rest of the world will have to deal with.

Ms. Bishop split with the US on the Paris Climate Accord:  "Australia is a strong supporter of the Paris agreement, and here at the United Nations we have voiced our support specifically on risk mitigation for coral reefs, which are among the most valuable environments on our planet," she said.  "They support more biodiversity than almost any other ecosystem, they're vital to the worlds fisheries, protect our coastlines and generate significant tourism revenue."  Donald Trump has pledged to withdraw the US from the international deal to try to limit the impact of global warming by committing to cut carbon emissions.

The High Court says Senator Malcolm Roberts of the One Nation party was a British citizen when he was nominated and was still a dual citizen for six months after his election.  Referring to Roberts' emails written to check if he was "still" a British Citizen, Judge Patrick Keane wrote in his findings:  "He knew that there was at least a real and substantial prospect that prior to May 1974 he had been and remained thereafter a citizen of the United Kingdom."  The full bench of the High Court will determine if Roberts was in violation of Section 44 of the Australian constitution which bars dual citizens from holding federal office.

US Senator John McCain says he will vote against the latest Republican party effort to repeal "Obamacare", or the Affordable Care Act (ACA), likely dealing a fatal blow to the latest effort of his party to erase the signature achievement of America's first black president.  McCain said the non-partisan scoring of how it would impact American consumers wasn't be available until after the scheduled vote; he also said any fix or replacement to the ACA should be bipartisan.  The latest repeal, known as Graham-Cassidy, was rejected by all of the majority medical and hospital associations.

Puerto Rico - without power and basic communications - is evacuating two towns with 70,000 people because of a crack in the Guajataca dam in the northwest of the US territory.  The US National Weather Service warned, "All Areas surrounding the Guajataca River should evacuate NOW.  Their lives are in DANGER! Please SHARE!"  The island is reeling from the back to back hurricanes, and drenching rain sent most rivers above flood stage.  There is waist-high flooding in the capital San Juan.

London officials have ruled that Uber is not "fit and proper to hold a private hire operator license" and suspended the ride-hailing service.  The move impacts some 40,000 drivers in one of the world's largest cities.  Transport for London (TfL) cited Uber for its history of poor background checks on its drivers and its use of software to block legal regulatory bodies from checking if the company is obeying the law.  London Mayor Sadiq Khan backs the move, saying any operator of taxi services in the city "needs to play by the rules".
