Getting you across the week in news - we’re back with the Coalition and climate policy, because it was announced this week that the Liberal Party were officially abandoning the net zero targets set by former PM Scott Morrison. We’ll take you through what that entails, and what’s yet to unfold. Then it’s over to the US for the latest in the Trump/Epstein saga. And finishing up with the announcement of Victoria’s new ‘Violent Crime, Adult Time’ laws and Menulog shutting up shop.

The meeting between US President Donald Trump and China’s President Xi Jinping made big headlines at the end of the week. A meeting rated 12 out of 10 by Trump, and a trade agreement secured - we’ll take you through what it means for world trade and security. Also in this week’s episode -  ‘Prince Andrew’ losing his Prince title, his HRH styling, and his home, plus a warning from new AFP boss Krissy Barrett about sadistic crime networks operating online. 

On the lighter side of things, the Bureau of Meteorology has had a shocker with their website redesign. And as always, a recommendation or two as Claire and Jodie discuss Nobody Wants This Season 2, Film Club and an instagram account worth a follow.
