Here's what's making 4 00:00:12,119 --> 00:00:13,240 Speaker 1: headlines this evening. 5 00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:17,880 Speaker 2: The Australian stock market has reached a two month high 6 00:00:17,960 --> 00:00:22,160 Speaker 2: with news the Trump administration is expected to soften automotive tariffs. 7 00:00:22,600 --> 00:00:26,040 Speaker 2: It follows recent uncertainty across global markets off the back 8 00:00:26,120 --> 00:00:30,360 Speaker 2: of the US president's sweeping Liberation Day tariffs, which included 9 00:00:30,360 --> 00:00:33,519 Speaker 2: a twenty five percent tax on cars and car parts 10 00:00:33,600 --> 00:00:37,800 Speaker 2: imported to America. Auto manufacturers warned the levee would lead 11 00:00:37,800 --> 00:00:42,120 Speaker 2: to increased prices and decreased sales and quote make servicing 12 00:00:42,159 --> 00:00:46,479 Speaker 2: and repairing vehicles both more expensive. Now, White House officials 13 00:00:46,479 --> 00:00:49,760 Speaker 2: say Trump will reduce tariffs on foreign made car parts 14 00:00:49,840 --> 00:00:54,040 Speaker 2: used in American manufactured cars. Vehicles made outside the US 15 00:00:54,080 --> 00:00:57,120 Speaker 2: will still be subject to tariffs, but automakers won't have 16 00:00:57,200 --> 00:01:01,120 Speaker 2: to pay stacked duties on things like allium and metals. 17 00:01:01,880 --> 00:01:04,319 Speaker 2: News of the tariff relief has seen the best stay 18 00:01:04,400 --> 00:01:07,640 Speaker 2: for Australian markets in eight weeks, with the ASX two 19 00:01:07,760 --> 00:01:10,559 Speaker 2: hundred up by nearly one percent at close today. 20 00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:17,000 Speaker 1: Queensland Police has charged a teenager after a vandalism attack 21 00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:20,679 Speaker 1: on opposition leader Peter Dutton's office. It's the third time 22 00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:24,280 Speaker 1: the Brisbane site has been targeted during this election campaign. 23 00:01:24,760 --> 00:01:27,360 Speaker 1: Police were called to the office in Dutton's electorate of 24 00:01:27,400 --> 00:01:30,400 Speaker 1: Dixon early this morning, where the facade of the building 25 00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:33,640 Speaker 1: had been covered in red paint and anti Dutton posters. 26 00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:37,040 Speaker 1: An eighteen year old woman has been charged with willful 27 00:01:37,120 --> 00:01:40,000 Speaker 1: damage and is due in court next month, as police 28 00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:44,720 Speaker 1: continue searching for three other people. Dutton faced further disruptions 29 00:01:44,720 --> 00:01:48,400 Speaker 1: this afternoon, canceling a planned press conference due to anti 30 00:01:48,520 --> 00:01:52,840 Speaker 1: nuclear protesters. The Liberal Party leader, who described the vandalism 31 00:01:52,880 --> 00:01:57,320 Speaker 1: of his office as outrageous, said he supports democratic processes 32 00:01:57,480 --> 00:02:02,760 Speaker 1: but doesn't want situations where people are being intimidated. 33 00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:07,320 Speaker 2: Canada's Liberal Party has secured a fourth term of government 34 00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:11,200 Speaker 2: in the country's snap election today, defying predictions from earlier 35 00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:15,000 Speaker 2: this year. Former Prime Minister Justin Trudeau stepped down as 36 00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:18,480 Speaker 2: leader of the center left Liberals and retired from parliament 37 00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:22,920 Speaker 2: earlier this year amid poor polls.

Analysts suggested Carney, who once led Canada and 40 00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:32,800 Speaker 2: England Central Banks were seen as a safe choice to 41 00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:35,959 Speaker 2: lead the country through economic turmoil brought on by US 42 00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:40,720 Speaker 2: President Donald Trump's tariffs. Opposition leader Pierre Poillieve, who leads 43 00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:44,640 Speaker 2: the Conservatives, conceded defeat earlier today and is projected to 44 00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:47,519 Speaker 2: lose his seat in Ottawa. While it's not yet known 45 00:02:47,560 --> 00:02:50,200 Speaker 2: if the Liberals will need to form a minority government, 46 00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:53,799 Speaker 2: it is clear the country's smaller parties are facing their 47 00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:57,760 Speaker 2: worst results in years, with the left leaning New Democratic Party, 48 00:02:57,840 --> 00:03:00,840 Speaker 2: which has formed government with the centre left Liberals before, 49 00:03:01,200 --> 00:03:02,800 Speaker 2: down more than a dozen seats. 50 00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:09,320 Speaker 1: And today's good news, Researchers have discovered the oldest known 51 00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:12,840 Speaker 1: ant fossil in Brazil. The one hundred and thirty one 52 00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:16,440 Speaker 1: million year old specimen proves that ants existed around the 53 00:03:16,480 --> 00:03:19,800 Speaker 1: world at the same time as dinosaurs. A team of 54 00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:23,320 Speaker 1: experts from the University of Sal Paolo discovered the fossilized 55 00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:27,360 Speaker 1: female ant in limestone from a well known geological site 56 00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:31,400 Speaker 1: in Brazil's northeast. The specimen has been identified as the 57 00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:35,920 Speaker 1: extinct wasp like hell ant. According to findings published in 58 00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:39,440 Speaker 1: the journal Current Biology, it means ants spread through global 59 00:03:39,440 --> 00:03:44,240 Speaker 1: ecosystems earlier than once believed. The discovery quote represents the 60 00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:47,360 Speaker 1: earliest undisputed ant known to science. 61 00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:51,040 Speaker 2: That's the latest from the Dallyos newsroom.
