Dinesh Palipana was told to forget becoming a doctor
Dinesh Palipana works as a doctor in one of Australia’s busiest hospital emergency rooms. If this wasn’t impressive enough, Dinesh also had to learn how to do the immensely physical work of medicine with a spinal cord injury. In this chat with Jamila Rizvi, Dinesh recounts the harrowing accident that left him quadriplegic in 2010, how he’s learnt to meet the demands of his job without the use of much of his body, and why he feels like the luckiest person alive.

A bold prediction on what will sway the election
Australians will go to the polls in 2022 to elect a federal government. There are so many critical issues dominating the news: Covid-19 and its many variants; inflation; house prices; unemployment; education; health; and climate change. Dan Ilic, an Australian comedian, started a crowdfunding campaign to fund Times Square billboards to embarrass Prime Minister Scott Morrison and the Commonwealth Government over their inaction on climate change. His original campaign aimed to raise $12,500 to fund a billboard near November’s Glasgow COP26 conference. He ended up raising more than $228,000. So what big-ticket item will dominate the 2022 federal election?
