Helen Haines’ Attack, Sally Rooney & Victoria Secret Runway

Hi everyone. This episode is coming amidst some tragic developing news: independent federal politician, Helen Haines, is in a critical condition after a man purposefully drove into her multiple times outside her office. Hannah shares what we know so far about the attack, and discusses the rise we have seen in threats towards female politicians. Note: since recording, the suspect, Brendan Nugent, has been publicly named. Latest reports also say that one of Ms Haines’ legs has been amputated. Then, Sarah explains why Sally Rooney’s support for Palestine is seeing her books pulled from UK shelves. The situation also raises some pretty uncomfortable questions about how Britain's terrorism laws are being applied. Plus: how Trump’s press secretary, Katie Zacharia, lost her job in just five days, the GIRLS reboot, the allegations against Greens senator Jordon Steele-John, and the shock appearances at the Victoria Secret Runway Show.
