Alan Jones' Explosive Trial, Morocco's Border Rush & The Senate Inquiry Into Labor's Gambling Bill

from Covered · host Annie Pullar & Jodi Lee

This week on Covered, Alan Jones stands trial, and the evidence from his first accuser, Complainant J, has dominated the week, alleging Jones started grooming him with money and gifts as a teenage athlete before assaulting him in a car. Then to Ceuta, where 60,000 people crossed the Moroccan border into Spain in days, a story branded a migration crisis that might actually be Morocco settling a score with Spain over its ties to Algeria. And a Senate inquiry into Labor's gambling advertising bill takes a dark turn when former NRL player Luke Bateman reveals what happened at a VIP betting event where the company's own CEO and founders were doing drugs alongside their top customers.
