Ten years ago, Julia Gillard made her famous misogyny speech. Our first female prime minister told then opposition leader, Tony Abbott, to look in the mirror.

When she stood up that day and said 'enough', it resonated around the world.

But ten years on, how far have we come?

We've continued to hear chilling accounts of harassment and assault in the heart of our political system.

And so when we look in the mirror today, what do we see?

From The Daily Aus, this is The Mirror. The four-part series dropping weekly from Monday 10 October.

Produced and edited by Ninah Kopel. Researched by Lucy Tassell. Hosted by Billi FitzSimons.

Introducing: The Mirror

As we dive a bit deeper, to examine the forces trying to legalise vaping, we uncover the role Big Tobacco has to play. So why do companies which traditionally have made their money from selling cigarettes, want vapes to be more readily available? And will the Government be able to push through with their reforms, with a force like Big Tobacco working against them?

The forces trying to legalise vaping

We’ve known for some time that buying nicotine vapes over the counter has been illegal. So why are they still so easy to buy? And what’s slowed down progress on regulation? In Episode  Two we’ll look at the legal loopholes vape manufacturers have been using to keep their vapes on the shelves. We also head to Parliament House to hear from those trying to crack down on vapes, and those trying to get them legalised.

How illegal are vapes?

The rules around vaping in Australia are about to change. But in order to understand these changes, you need to understand what vapes actually are - and what they’re doing to our health. In Episode One of TDA’s Understanding Vapes series, we’re going to go from the local tobacconist to the lab and speak to some of the most knowledgeable experts in the country to learn just how dangerous vaping can be.
