Good morning and welcome to Guardian Australia’s Sunday live blog. Queensland Fire and Rescue are continuing to fight several fires across the state, with an evacuation warning in place for Tara, Wieambilla and the Gums in the western Darling Downs. Residents across those areas are being told to leave immediately if safe to do so.
Police made an emergency declaration on Saturday night as a fast-moving fire threatened the Sunshine Coast towns of Landsborough and Beerwah. Other areas around Condamine, Barramornie, Kogan and Montrose North have been asked to prepare to leave. In federal news, Anthony Albanese will be on Insiders at 9am in a pre-recorded interview from the US, while Peter Dutton and Don Farrell are appearing on Sky News. I will bring you more on those as we go along.
