New parliament. More women than ever. Will it make a difference?

This is the weekly wrap! We discuss the women's records in the new parliament, the most moving speeches of the week, and why the woman who took down Peter Dutton at the election is one of the most remarkable people to have ever served as an MP. Plus, the tragic numbers and inaction in Gaza, including a moving call to action organised by a number of women-led NGOs in Canberra this week. And we touch on the Kiss Cam situation, one week later: the all male board, those who lost their jobs and the rampant misinformation surrounding the situation. Finally, a quick take on the new Superman film, described as "Superwoke" due to its messages on kindness. Some of the stories discussed this week include: Women make history in Cabinet.
