If we don't, there's significant costs for Australian industry."At least 50 people have died in Guatemala after a bus plunged into a ravine near the country's capital.
The former federal opposition and New South Wales One Nation leader had been ordered by the Federal Court to pay $140,000 to independent MP Alex Greenwich over the social media post.
