Australia: Mining giant 'sorry' for missing radioactive capsule

From Nine To Noon, 9:45 am on 1 February 2023

Australia correspondent Karen Middleton joins Kathryn to talk about the hunt for a missing radioactive capsule from a Rio Tinto mine in the Pilbara that's about the size of a pea.

Racial tensions are running high in Alice Springs over the rocketing rates of violent crime, with locals warning the place is about to explode.

A gay rights protest is planned for Thursday outside the Cathedral where the late Cardinal George Pell is due to be buried and Australia has a new domestic low-cost airline...called Bonza.

 

Karen Middleton is chief political correspondent for The Saturday Paper.
