Geelong refinery up in flames, Hungary's far right falls & Harry and Meghan's not-so-royal tour

from Covered · host Annie Pullar & Jodi Lee

Australia's fuel crisis just got a whole lot worse after a fire ripped through one of the country's only two remaining oil refineries. We debunk some of the biggest myths around Australia's fuel supply and how the PM's fortnight in a hardhat across Asia has actually paid off. Then to Hungary where voters have toppled strongman Viktor Orban in a landslide that's raising a bigger question - is the global far right losing its grip? And Harry and Meghan have touched down in Australia for what smells a lot like a royal tour, only they're not royals anymore and they're charging up to three grand for the privilege.
