• Weekly Wrap: The world reacts to the social media ban, and MP travel entitlements under scrutiny

  The social media ban for under-16s was everywhere this week, so we take stock of how that’s going, and cover the international reactions and responses from big tech. Then we unpack the controversy surrounding Communications Minister Anika Wells’ travel expenses. It’s the debut of Jodie’s ‘crime corner’, with major updates on the Greg Lynn and Toyah Cordingley cases, and we explain why a trip to the US will soon require handing over your social media history.

  We're starting this week with an around-the-grounds look at international conflicts. There's a fair bit happening with the Russia-Ukraine peace talks, escalating tensions with US and Venezuela, and we go through the latest from Gaza. Then we cover the update on the search for flight MH370, which is set to resume, Tasmania's AFL stadium finally being approved, and the PM's low-key wedding at The Lodge.

• Weekly Wrap: Labor’s deal with the Greens, and we’re on track to eliminate cervical cancer

  There were 2 big stories out of the last sitting week of federal parliament for the year - the Albanese Government’s environmental law reforms passed with support from the Greens, and Barnaby Joyce dumped the Nationals. There's also a bit to get across internationally - the tragic fires in Hong Kong, progress on a Russia-Ukraine peace deal, and Japan and China are at odds over Taiwan. And there was some incredibly good news on the fight against cervical cancer that you might have missed.  Links  Robert Irwin’s Finale Freestyle on Dancing With The Stars New York Times profile on Robert Irwin  Jodie’s recommendation: The Names by Florence Knapp  Claire’s recommendation: Somebody Somewhere on HBO Max or Apple TV+ Want more News Club in your life?
