WA’s Banksia Hill’s shameful treatment of detainees

What is it like for youngsters locked up inside Western Australia’s Banksia Hill detention centre?

We’re joined by the ABC reporter Grace Tobin, whose distressing Four Corners report has revealed the number of excessive force complaints against officers at Banksia Hill. Officers have been exposed for using the ‘folding up’ technique to restrain teenagers. The movement is banned in Queensland over fears it could lead to suffocation or death.

Headlines:

- Feds push for cap on energy prices
- Albo finishes year on top of the polls
