Manage episode 371559344 series 115210
Victoria has pulled out of hosting the 2026 Commonwealth Games, saying it's going to cost too much. The shock announcement had a mixed response — sporting groups are angry, but others think it's a smart economic decision.
Also, the official arguments for the Yes and No campaigns for the Indigenous Voice to Parliament referendum have been published today.
And, we go to a nature reserve in the Northern Territory where protesters are fighting to save it from being partially demolished to build houses.
Guests:
- Luke Beck, Associate Professor of Constitutional Law at Monash University
- David Rowe, Emeritus Professor of Cultural Research at Western Sydney University
