The Australia Institute’s chief economist Dr Richard Denniss discusses the permanent change (ie. cut) to the rate of the unemployment allowance. After years of lobbying is the rate adequate and what does this mean for people currently struggling and living below the poverty line? We talk about all things relating to Australia’s economy and federal politics. Virologist Associate Professor Stuart Turville from the Kirby Institute explains what a viral strain, mutation, and variant is in relation to SARS-CoV-2.
