Peter Dutton is relying on "quiet Australians" to get him over the line as a former political insider says protest votes could offer him a path to The Lodge; A prominent Indigenous leader has accused politicians of using Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people as a political football; A regional disability provider has admitted to serious safety breaches after the death of a young Aboriginal woman; Almost one in seven women and girls skip sport because of their period; A man who allegedly broke into the home of television star Asher Keddie has been bailed.

The Quicky is the easiest and most enjoyable way to get across the news every day. And it’s delivered straight to your ears in a daily podcast so you can listen whenever you want, wherever you want...at the gym, on the train, in the playground or at night while you're making dinner.
