Andrew Alderson: Formula 1, T20, and more from the weekend

Former UK nurse Lucy Letby has been found guilty of trying to murder another newborn baby.

It adds to convictions last year that made her the United Kingdom's most prolific serial killer of modern times.

The 34-year-old was found guilty last August of murdering seven babies and trying to kill six more while working at a Chester Hospital.

She went on trial last month for a second time for the attempted murder of a baby girl after the original jury failed to reach a verdict.

UK Correspondent Gavin Grey told Mike Hosking that when the verdict was read the parents gasped while Letby showed no emotion in the dock.

A principal says the number of students going on holidays during the school term has dropped.

Flight Centre data shows a 30% reduction in family bookings during the school term compared to last year.

But the bookings during winter school holidays are up 10%.

General Manager Heidi Walker says it's likely due to the Government's focus on truancy.

Avonside Girls High principal Catherine Law told Mike Hosking that they've seen some significant pattern changes.

She says they're seeing an upward trend in improved overall attendance.

A media commentator says a Bill to make tech platforms pay for news has a decent shot at bringing change. 

The Government's progressing an amended version of the Fair Digital News Bargaining Bill to make digital platforms like Facebook pay for using news content.

National and NZ First are supporting it, while ACT's invoking its right to 'agree to disagree' and will oppose the Bill. 

The Spinoff founder Duncan Greive told Mike Hosking Australia was the poster boy for such a scheme, but Meta has signalled that it won't renew. 

He says there's a change from the consumer side, but from a revenue perspective there's money flowing that wasn't before.
