This is the latest from your new speeder. It's Friday,
the fourteenth of June. In Victoria. Opposition leader John Basuto
has taken another swipe at the Allen government for failing
to condemn union heavyweight John Setka's savage attack on the AFL.
It comes as Deputy Premier Ben Carroll appeared to back

(00:22):
mister Seca despite the foray over the comments, which were
slammed as thugish. The powerful CFMEU boss has threatened to
halt all construction projects linked to the AFL unless the
league sacks its umpiring boss, Stephen McBurney, who clashed with
the union in a previous role as head of the
industry watchdog. Tax Payers were slugged more than one hundred

(00:45):
thousand dollars for an Australian delegation to attend the funeral
of Japanese Prime Minister Sinzo Abbey. New documents obtained under
freedom of information revealed the trip in September twenty twenty two,
attended by a number of prime ministers, cost ninety four
thousand dollars in hotel rooms alone. A Tokyo hotel invoice

Paralympic Games mess would be fixed within one hundred days

speech to make a pledge to get plans for the
twenty thirty two Olympics back on track after he said
the state government squandered its head start and controversially chose

(01:47):
to ignore an independent review it commissioned into games venues. Currently,
the government is pressing ahead with a controversial plan to
upgrade Nathan's Queensland Sport and Athletics Center, despite for Brisbane
Lord Mayor Graham Kirk finding it did not provide value
for money. And in South Australia, a teenager allegedly tried

(02:08):
to steal a police car after a violent failed carjacking,
but was tasered and capsicin sprayed. A court has heard
the Adelaide Magistrate's Court on Thursday was told of the
vicious random attack with absolutely no cause that left another
teenager in hospital with serious head injuries. Zie and Hadad,
who turned eighteen a week ago, was arrested and charged
