Prime Minister Scott Morrison has unveiled a four-stage plan to lead us out of the COVID pandemic, but without any clear targets or timelines attached, how effective will it be?
Meanwhile, the Coalition Government faces fresh accusations of sexism from former Liberal MP Julia Banks who alleges she was subjected to an unwanted sexual advance at work from a cabinet minister. Watch 7.30 tonight as Julia sheds new light on her experiences.
And a recent report shows the Government splashed $660 million on car parks, overwhemingly located in Liberal seats in the lead up to the last election. Is this worse than the so-called ‘sports rorts’ affair?
Plus, with world renowned ethicist Peter Singer on the panel, we’ll take a look at the global issue of vaccine equity, and Singer’s new Journal of Controversial Ideas – in which authors have the option of publishing under a pseudonym. Will this create a safe space for bold ideas, or simply enable shirking of accountability?
Joining David on the panel:
Peter Singer, Philosopher
Katie Allen, Liberal Member for Higgins
Malarndirri McCarthy, Labor Senator for Northern Territory
Santilla Chingaipe, Journalist, filmmaker and author
Cameron Stewart, Associate Editor, The Australian
