  1. The lives of asylum seekers on Nauru

    The lives of asylum seekers on Nauru

    On Nauru, there are close to 100 asylum seekers who have been released from detention but are currently living hand-to-mouth. They are forbidden to work on the island, and are surviving on a stipend of $230 a fortnight – which they say is not even enough for three meals a day. The Australian government has mostly succeeded in keeping offshore processing off the front pages, but as boat arrivals continue, Nauru remains central to the Australian government’s immigration response. Today, contributor to The Saturday Paper Denham Sadler on surviving on Nauru and whether Australia’s policy of offshore detention will ever end.

    How Trump pushed bitcoin to record highs

    Crypto is skyrocketing, ever since Donald Trump won the US election. Trump is set to lead the most pro-crypto administration ever, promising a crypto advisory council and appointing a prominent pro-crypto hedge fund manager as his pick for Treasury secretary.  His campaign received considerable donations from the crypto industry, who hope he’ll come good on his promise to create a national bitcoin stockpile. Today, managing editor of The Saturday Paper Emily Barrett on why Trump backs crypto and what it means for the global economy.

    How Gina Rinehart's friendship with Trump will change Australia

    The night Donald Trump claimed victory, he celebrated with his closest friends.  Among them was Australia’s richest person, Gina Rinehart. Rinehart, who describes herself as a “long standing member of the Trump support group ‘the Trumpettes’”, is not only cultivating her ties among America’s right-wing political elite. She also remains a highly influential figure in Australian politics.  And with the Australian election just months away, Rinehart’s friendship with Opposition Leader Peter Dutton is more pertinent than ever. Today, national correspondent for The Saturday Paper Mike Seccombe on Gina Rinhehart, her money, and how she uses it to shape the country.  Socials: Stay in touch with us on Twitter and Instagram Guest: National correspondent for The Saturday Paper Mike Seccombe

    The last path forward to Treaty

    The call for Treaty in this country stems as far back as European settlement.  Now, the Victorian government has started negotiations in what will be the first time a state or federal government in Australia has sat down with Aboriginal people on equal footing to reach Treaty. But in the wake of the failed referendum on an Indigenous Voice to Parliament, the Victorian opposition has withdrawn support for the process, raising concerns Victoria’s Treaty process could be derailed after already coming so far. Today, Yorta-Yorta journalist and broadcaster Daniel James on what this moment means for Treaty, Truth and self-determination.

    How police try to shut down climate protests

    Hundreds of climate activists, aboard rafts and kayaks, have paddled out into the Port of Newcastle for a so-called “protestival”, to disrupt the world’s largest coal port. The activists behind the protest, Rising Tide, are defying a police-sought court order that tried to have the protest stopped due to safety concerns. It means the demonstration will run in the presence of a police force that has a full suite of powers. Today, producer for 7am Cheyne Anderson on how challenges like this are becoming more common, set against a backdrop of a nation-wide crackdown on the right to protest.

    How to talk about vaccine side effects

    There’s a group of people who felt completely abandoned during our most recent public health crisis: those who suffered Covid-19 vaccine injuries.  It is a rare event, but it happens. During the pandemic those who experienced side effects from Covid-19 vaccinations say they felt deserted by their friends, health services and ultimately, the government, which they believe failed to deliver its promised compensation scheme. Today, reporter for the ABC’s Background Briefing Maddison Connaughton on the shortcomings of the Covid-19 vaccination compensation scheme – and what it means for public trust during a future pandemic.

    Just a few days after the US presidential election, Prospect Park, located in the middle of Brooklyn, burst into flames.  For Pulitzer Prize-winning novelist Geraldine Brooks, who has long called America home, an autumn bushfire in the dense urban heart of Brooklyn was a scary sign of what’s to come under Donald Trump’s second term as US president. Today, Geraldine Brooks on Trump’s America – and what it means for a burning planet.  Socials: Stay in touch with us on Twitter and Instagram Guest: Pulitzer Prize-winning novelist Geraldine Brooks
