ROYAL COMMISSION: We discuss the official commencement of the Royal Commission into Child Sex Abuse, including hearing from Justice Pete McClellan.
ABBOTT’S DAUGHTERS: Federal Leader of the Opposition, Tony Abbott’s daughters have come out in support of same-sex marriage, but Mr Abbott has reaffirmed his stance on the issue and has again ruled out the possibility of ever allowing a conscience vote for the coalition. We were also joined by Australian Marriage Equality’s national director, Rodney Croome for analysis on the issue.
CAPRIL: Want to do your bit for raising awareness of depression and other mental illness? Well, the folks over at Capril are encouraging you to wear a cape whilst undertaking everyday activities. The aim of the campaign is to start a discussion and in turn raise awareness and reduce stigma associated with those living with mental illness.
