Episode description

When most of us could travel overseas we knew that that if it all goes pear shaped you still call Australia home and it will be waiting for you with open arms. But for many Australians overseas that changed this week.

 

Today we're joined by Lachlan Kitchen, who has been trying to build a life in Dubai... but had a redundancy  last week. Our other guest is James Mort who is still in London he’s also trying to get home.

 

In today's news headlines:

  • Victoria’s public housing tower cluster linked to protests
  • QLD declares two NSW suburbs hotspots
  • Woman who lost her home in bushfires survives QLD shark attack
  • Palace Papers released decades after Whitlam dismissal

 

In today's Briefing we hear what the reality of being unable to return home means for young Australians who’ve been working abroad. We ask the questions: Should returning Australians chip in for quarantine? Have they had enough warning?
