"Carry-on baggage rules will be relaxed under a shake-up of aviation  
security announced by the Federal Government today. The changes will  
see passengers again allowed to carry some sharp implements, such as  
nail files and clippers, umbrellas, crochet and knitting needles on  
board aircraft from July next year"

Best quote:

"Metal cutlery will return to return to cabin meals and airport  
restaurants following Government recognition that security  
arrangements must be targeted at 'real risks'."

...somebody care to tell the TSA this is how you do security  
planning?  Oh, wait - passenger screening isn't a federal jobs program  
for the Ozzies like it is here in the USA.

Now to get them to drop that assinine web filtering scheme.
