Parliament has been recalled early to debate hate speech and gun control laws in the wake of the Bondi terrorist attack.

What began as a push for national unity has become a divisive legislative battle, forcing Prime Minister Anthony Albanese to split the original package into two separate bills; but will these laws make an impact? And will they even pass at all?

And in headlines today, Experts are warning that recent weather conditions may be contributing to the spike in shark attacks in Sydney; Text messages between the Norwegian Prime Minister and US President Donald Trump have revealed how committed Trump is to taking over Greenland; Indigenous Australians and their allies are hoping they will be able to mark January 26 invasion day as police decide whether the protests can go ahead as planned; Prince Harry has told a court it is "disturbing to feel that my every move, thought or feeling was being tracked" so the publisher of the Daily Mail could "make money out of it"; Valentino Garavani, the jet-set Italian designer whose high-glamour gowns - often in his trademark shade of "Valentino red - have graced red carpets for decades, has passed away

Labor Issues Ultimatum On Hate Speech Laws & Teens Praised For Heroic Shark Act

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/3ea926be-9be7-482a-8ac3-a44f016e43d1/clips/f1a2049b-e662-4582-909b-b3d601705e55/transcript

Tony Armstrong has done a lot in his 36 years of life; he's pursued footy at the highest levels, completed a stint of sports reporting and even nabbed himself a Logie.

We know he's read the news, but now he's taking a flamethrower to it in his new ABC special Always Was Tonight - a First Nations-led news satire, promising to decolonise the news, one headline at a time. 

Tony joins The Quicky to explore how humour can sometimes get through where straight politics can't. 

And in headlines today, Parliament will resume today, as MPs are called back early to pay their respects to the victims of the Bondi terror attack and work on laws to ensure it doesn’t happen again; Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has been asked to join the Board of Peace to help rebuild Gaza by US President Donald Trump; A 13-year-old boy is fighting for his life after being bitten on the leg by a shark at a popular Sydney beach; US President Donald Trump ​has threatened to implement a wave of increasing tariffs on EU members until the United ⁠States is allowed to buy Greenland; Game of Thrones star Emilia Clarke has revealed that she suffered a broken rib while shooting intimate scenes for her new spy drama Ponies
