Summary
President Trump has said repeatedly that a ceasefire was just days away, now he’s learning the hard way, it’s much easier to start a war than to end one. After weeks of stalled negotiations the US is now resorting to military force but Iran says it will continue to hit back, targeting American bases across the region. The government is being accused of rushing it proposed reform of the NDIS and abandoning its original intent – to restore dignity to the lives of people living with a serious disability. Dr Stevie Lang Howson, an NDIS participant and an advocate with Disabled People Against Cuts says the changes could see funding supports based on government’s appetite, rather than people’s needs. And ‘just chill’, that’s Fifa president Gianni Infantino’s advice to football fans on the eve of tomorrow’s World Cup kick-off – but the controversies are piling up prompting some to ask who’s really in control of the beautiful game? ESPN football journalist Joey Lynch spoke to us from the sidelines of the Socceroos training camp.
