January 19
14 mins

Episode Description

Federal Parliament will today debate new hate speech and gun control legislation, in the wake of the Bondi terror attack that killed 15 innocent people last month. The Government initially planned to introduce a single bill covering multiple reforms, but widespread opposition has forced it to split the legislation into two bills. Today, we're breaking down what's in these bills and why they've proven so controversial.

Hosts: Emma Gillespie and Billi FitzSimons
