Weekly Wrap: Labor’s deal with the Greens, and we’re on track to eliminate cervical cancer

from News Club · host The Squiz

There were 2 big stories out of the last sitting week of federal parliament for the year - the Albanese Government’s environmental law reforms passed with support from the Greens, and Barnaby Joyce dumped the Nationals. There's also a bit to get across internationally - the tragic fires in Hong Kong, progress on a Russia-Ukraine peace deal, and Japan and China are at odds over Taiwan. And there was some incredibly good news on the fight against cervical cancer that you might have missed.  Links  Robert Irwin’s Finale Freestyle on Dancing With The Stars New York Times profile on Robert Irwin  Jodie’s recommendation: The Names by Florence Knapp  Claire’s recommendation: Somebody Somewhere on HBO Max or Apple TV+ Want more News Club in your life?
