Why the Nationals finally caved on net zero

Today’s Briefing is a deep dive on the politics playing out in Canberra between the Coalition partners.

The National Party has agreed to the government’s net zero targets ahead of the COP26 summit in Glasgow. It means Australia will aim for net zero carbon emissions by 2050.

Annika Smethurst explains exactly what went on behind closed doors; and what it means for the future of the Coalition. So much weighs on the decision, particularly with a federal election looming in the new year.

TODAY'S HEADLINES

  • Nationals agree to work with government on net zero

  • More freedoms for Victorians on Friday

  • Police issue alert for mystery driver in Cleo Smith search
  • Vigil held for cinematographer killed on Baldwin set
