What we learned today, Friday 22 September
What happened? Quite a lot!
We have to start with media mogul Rupert Murdoch’s (sort of) retirement, in which he promises to remain quite involved. What does it mean for Australia? And don’t miss Weekly Beast!
No campaigner Warren Mundine, who has had a bit of a rocky ride this week, looks like he won’t run for the Liberal senate seat vacated by Marise Payne. And senator Lidia Thorpe said she’ll give him a call about treaties.
And there are calls for no campaigner Gary Johns to be sacked after yet more offensive comments.
Treasurer Jim Chalmers found himself a substantial budget boon.
New Qantas boss, Vanessa Hudson, apologised in a video statement for letting down customers.
And MC Hammer jumped on the yes campaign bandwagon, while singer Kamahl ditched his no stance and joined the US rapper in the yes camp.
Thanks for your company today, until next time!
