News Weakly – 31st August, 2024
This week on News Weakly, we dive into the controversies and conflicts that made headlines, delivering our signature satirical punch to the week’s top stories. From union crackdowns to census confusion and the latest shifts in the Middle East, we keep you informed and entertained as we punch the news in the headlines, weakly.
TOP STORIES OF THE WEEK
Disunion in construction union
The Labor government finally steps in to tackle the Construction, Forestry, Maritime, Mining and Energy Union (CFMEU), placing it into administration amid allegations of corruption and crime. We explore why it took so long for action and whether this move is fair or just another politically motivated stunt.
And, Labor wants to know who you have sex! No it doesn’t! Yes it does!
Labor’s backflip on including LGBTQIA+ questions in the national census has left everyone spinning. We break down why the government is so afraid of a little controversy and what this means for data collection on sexuality and gender in Australia.
Plus, yet another israel-Gaza rant!
As Israel pauses its assault on Gaza, it shifts focus to the West Bank, escalating tensions in a new direction. We examine the implications of this strategic move and the international reactions to Israel’s ever-expanding military campaign.
Quote of the Week:
“If you bomb someone to polio, that’s pretty bad and you should consider stopping.”
