The federal government’s Housing Future Fund has passed the senate after Labor reached a deal with the Greens after months of negotiations. A first of its kind hub for Melbourne’s gig workers has opened in the CBD to provide amenities for a growing cohort of workers without an office. Aspiring high school teachers will soon study for free under a state government initiative after a rally outside Parliament House last week. Victorian series 'Neighbours' returns to screens on Monday, but there’s trouble for interstate productions with funding cuts in New South Wales and a pay dispute in Queensland. And in sport: Kyra Cooney-Cross has become the latest Matildas player to sign with an overseas football club, making a deadline day deal to play for Arsenal in Europe’s Women’s Super League.
