0:00:25.920 --> 0:00:28.680
<v Speaker 2>the right to sit in this room, he said, because

0:00:28.680 --> 0:00:31.880
<v Speaker 2>this is where decisions are made. The caucus meant to

0:00:31.920 --> 0:00:34.360
<v Speaker 2>sign off on a list of the thirty MP's who

0:00:34.360 --> 0:00:37.760

<v Speaker 1>Proceedings in the trial of accused mushroom murderer Aaron Patterson

0:00:59.240 --> 0:01:02.600
<v Speaker 1>have wrapped for another week in Victoria. Today, the court

0:01:02.680 --> 0:01:06.199
<v Speaker 1>was shown footage from a police interview with Patterson's teenage son.

0:01:06.720 --> 0:01:09.399
<v Speaker 1>He claimed his fifty year old mother built lego by

<v Speaker 1>Pattison's son told police his mother complained of feeling quote

0:01:17.120 --> 0:01:21.240
<v Speaker 1>a bit sick and had diarrhea the day after the lunch. However,

0:01:21.280 --> 0:01:23.360
<v Speaker 1>the team said she did not stop to use the

0:01:23.360 --> 0:01:26.280
<v Speaker 1>toilet during a one hundred and eighty kilometer round trip

0:01:26.360 --> 0:01:29.840

<v Speaker 2>away ninety nine percent of his fortune by twenty forty five.

0:01:43.959 --> 0:01:46.840
<v Speaker 2>Once the world's richest man, Gates had already promised to

0:01:46.920 --> 0:01:50.520
<v Speaker 2>donate his wealth via the Gates Foundation, but this announcement

0:01:50.560 --> 0:01:53.680

<v Speaker 2>US spending cuts to global aid programs. He also criticized

0:02:08.040 --> 0:02:11.000
<v Speaker 2>Elon Musk for his role in slashing aid funding, saying

0:02:11.360 --> 0:02:19.359
<v Speaker 2>these cuts will kill not just children, but millions of children.

0:02:17.600 --> 0:02:21.640
