Mumma Mea acknowledges the 2 00:00:15,414 --> 00:00:18,294 Speaker 1: traditional owners of land and waters that this podcast is 3 00:00:18,334 --> 00:00:23,454 Speaker 1: recorded on Hi. I'm Nicole Madigan from Mummamea's twice daily 4 00:00:23,494 --> 00:00:27,334 Speaker 1: news podcast, The Quickie with Your Headlines for Tuesday, April 5 00:00:27,374 --> 00:00:32,174 Speaker 1: twenty nine. Peter Dutton is relying on quiet Australians to 6 00:00:32,174 --> 00:00:35,014 Speaker 1: get him over the line, as a former political insider 7 00:00:35,094 --> 00:00:38,294 Speaker 1: says protest votes could offer him a path to the lodge. 8 00:00:38,694 --> 00:00:41,854 Speaker 1: The Opposition is seeking to defy a campaign trail pole 9 00:00:41,934 --> 00:00:45,774 Speaker 1: slump that's delivered Labour a significant lead, although the Coalition 10 00:00:45,934 --> 00:00:49,854 Speaker 1: maintains its internal numbers are more optimistic than the public ones. 11 00:00:50,774 --> 00:00:53,134 Speaker 1: Dutton will hit more than two dozen seats in the 12 00:00:53,174 --> 00:00:56,614 Speaker 1: final week of campaigning ahead of Saturday's poll. He says 13 00:00:56,654 --> 00:01:00,094 Speaker 1: internal polling was positive and that gave him great confidence 14 00:01:00,134 --> 00:01:04,454 Speaker 1: for the election result. The term quiet Australians was famously 15 00:01:04,574 --> 00:01:08,054 Speaker 1: used by former Liberal Prime Minister Scott Morrison after his 16 00:01:08,254 --> 00:01:13,374 Speaker 1: unexpected victory in twenty nineteen, which defied poles that consistently 17 00:01:13,414 --> 00:01:18,294 Speaker 1: predicted a Labour victory. A prominent Indigenous leader has accused 18 00:01:18,334 --> 00:01:22,414 Speaker 1: politicians of using Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people as 19 00:01:22,454 --> 00:01:26,414 Speaker 1: a political football. After two opposition leaders criticized welcome to 20 00:01:26,454 --> 00:01:30,734 Speaker 1: Country ceremonies, Federal Liberal leader Peter Dutton placed himself in 21 00:01:30,814 --> 00:01:33,894 Speaker 1: the center of the debate after a small group of hecklers, 22 00:01:33,974 --> 00:01:38,774 Speaker 1: including self described neo Nazi Jacob Person, disrupted an ANZAC 23 00:01:38,854 --> 00:01:42,974 Speaker 1: dawn service in Melbourne. Dutton has described welcome to Country 24 00:01:42,974 --> 00:01:47,254 Speaker 1: ceremonies as overused. Days after Uncle Mark Brown was booed 25 00:01:47,294 --> 00:01:51,614 Speaker 1: on ANZAC Day, he repeated the criticism on Monday, adding 26 00:01:51,654 --> 00:01:54,854 Speaker 1: that he believed welcome to Country ceremonies should only happen 27 00:01:54,934 --> 00:01:58,934 Speaker 1: at very significant events. When asked whether he would consider 28 00:01:59,014 --> 00:02:03,414 Speaker 1: ANZAC Day significant enough, the opposition leader said no and 29 00:02:03,454 --> 00:02:07,414 Speaker 1: that the day was about veterans. But Pat Anderson, co 30 00:02:07,534 --> 00:02:10,854 Speaker 1: chair of the ULARU Dialogue, says a welcome to Country 31 00:02:10,934 --> 00:02:15,134 Speaker 1: isn't about welcoming people to Australia. Rather, it's about welcoming 32 00:02:15,174 --> 00:02:19,574 Speaker 1: people to Aboriginal cultures, lands and seas. She says it's 33 00:02:19,614 --> 00:02:22,294 Speaker 1: not up to politicians to regulate when and how a 34 00:02:22,374 --> 00:02:25,254 Speaker 1: Welcome to Country should happen, and was sad to see 35 00:02:25,254 --> 00:02:30,494 Speaker 1: the displays of disrespect on the ANZAC weekend. Dutton's Victorian counterpart, 36 00:02:30,614 --> 00:02:34,934 Speaker 1: Brad Batton, echoed the opposition leader's sentiments, saying constant welcome 37 00:02:34,974 --> 00:02:41,294 Speaker 1: to Country ceremonies risked it becoming disingenuous. A regional disability 38 00:02:41,334 --> 00:02:45,174 Speaker 1: provider has admitted to serious safety breaches after the death 39 00:02:45,214 --> 00:02:47,654 Speaker 1: of a young Aboriginal woman who was badly burned in 40 00:02:47,694 --> 00:02:51,414 Speaker 1: a bathtub. Kaya Lucas suffered burns to almost half her 41 00:02:51,454 --> 00:02:54,214 Speaker 1: body when she was bathed in a home in Orange 42 00:02:54,374 --> 00:02:57,894 Speaker 1: in central New South Wales by two workers from NDIS 43 00:02:57,974 --> 00:03:03,574 Speaker 1: provider live Better in twenty twenty two. Lucas was removed 44 00:03:03,574 --> 00:03:06,534 Speaker 1: from the bath with her skin peeling, and a temperature 45 00:03:06,534 --> 00:03:10,214 Speaker 1: control panel showed the water was sixty degrees celsius rather 46 00:03:10,254 --> 00:03:13,934 Speaker 1: than the usual maximum setting of forty two degrees. The 47 00:03:14,014 --> 00:03:16,414 Speaker 1: twenty eight year old, who had conditions that left her 48 00:03:16,494 --> 00:03:20,374 Speaker 1: nonverbal and with thin skin, died in a Sydney hospital 49 00:03:20,534 --> 00:03:24,254 Speaker 1: five days later. Live Better was fined a record one 50 00:03:24,294 --> 00:03:27,414 Speaker 1: point eight million dollars in the federal court in twenty 51 00:03:27,614 --> 00:03:31,814 Speaker 1: twenty four after the NDIS Quality and Safeguard's Commission took 52 00:03:31,854 --> 00:03:35,254 Speaker 1: action against it over multiple failures to comply with its 53 00:03:35,334 --> 00:03:38,654 Speaker 1: standards of care. The care provider pleaded guilty in the 54 00:03:38,694 --> 00:03:41,694 Speaker 1: New South Wales District Court to a criminal charge in 55 00:03:41,734 --> 00:03:44,854 Speaker 1: a separate case brought by Safe Work New South Wales, 56 00:03:45,454 --> 00:03:48,774 Speaker 1: admitting one count of breaching its primary duty of health 57 00:03:48,814 --> 00:03:53,774 Speaker 1: and safety regarding lucas. Almost one in seven women and 58 00:03:53,854 --> 00:03:57,094 Speaker 1: girls skipped sport because of their period. According to a 59 00:03:57,174 --> 00:04:02,174 Speaker 1: new Victorian University study, around ninety percent worried about leakage, 60 00:04:02,294 --> 00:04:05,454 Speaker 1: while more than seventy percent felt generally anxious about their 61 00:04:05,494 --> 00:04:09,374 Speaker 1: period when playing sport. The research shows that providing free 62 00:04:09,574 --> 00:04:13,294 Speaker 1: period products at sporting facilities could remove one barrier to 63 00:04:13,294 --> 00:04:17,734 Speaker 1: playing sport and help drive up membership. The study's lead researcher, 64 00:04:17,814 --> 00:04:20,454 Speaker 1: Claire Henland, says such a measure would be a small 65 00:04:20,494 --> 00:04:23,654 Speaker 1: cost with a big return, not only for keeping girls 66 00:04:23,694 --> 00:04:26,494 Speaker 1: in sport, but also reducing the need to replace those 67 00:04:26,534 --> 00:04:30,574 Speaker 1: who drop out. Some sporting clubs do provide free products, 68 00:04:30,574 --> 00:04:33,814 Speaker 1: but it's not mandatory. In Australia, where just thirty two 69 00:04:33,854 --> 00:04:37,134 Speaker 1: percent of women and girls age over fifteen play sport. 70 00:04:38,054 --> 00:04:41,094 Speaker 1: A man who allegedly broke into the home of television 71 00:04:41,174 --> 00:04:44,414 Speaker 1: star Asha Ketty before being tackled by her husband has 72 00:04:44,494 --> 00:04:47,734 Speaker 1: been bailed. James Powell is accused of breaking into the 73 00:04:47,734 --> 00:04:51,494 Speaker 1: couple's garage and attempting to steal a forty thousand dollars motorbike. 74 00:04:51,974 --> 00:04:55,214 Speaker 1: Ketty heard a noise before discovering the thief and screamed 75 00:04:55,214 --> 00:04:59,774 Speaker 1: for her husband, acclaimed artist Vincent Van Taso, who gave chase, 76 00:04:59,894 --> 00:05:05,094 Speaker 1: ultimately restraining the accused until police arrived. Powell lost consciousness 77 00:05:05,094 --> 00:05:08,254 Speaker 1: shortly after police arrested him and paramedics had to be 78 00:05:08,334 --> 00:05:10,934 Speaker 1: called to take him to hospital with a drug overdose, 79 00:05:10,974 --> 00:05:15,214 Speaker 1: possibly brought on by the physical confrontation. Powell appeared before 80 00:05:15,294 --> 00:05:18,414 Speaker 1: Melbourne Magistrates Court via video link on Monday, where he 81 00:05:18,534 --> 00:05:22,934 Speaker 1: was bailed.
