Jacinta Allan on WFH and her Insta blow up + James Packer engaged

Victorian Premier Jacinta Allan is driving Australia’s first work from home laws, arguing they will boost productivity and help families.

In this interview with Natarsha Belling, the Premier addresses the new WFH controversy - and the mystery of how 90,000 fake followers appeared on her Instagram account.
