It's the start of Australia's 48th Parliament, with fresh faces finding their seats and Labor wasting no time pushing through major election promises.

And in headlines today Australia along with 24 other countries have demanded Israel immediately end its war in the Gaza Strip criticising the "inhumane killing" of Palestinians, including hundreds near food distribution sites; Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has slammed Mark Latham for what he calls his "repulsive" views, but a picture of the former Labor leader will remain hanging in the federal caucus room despite domestic violence accusations; The federal government has sent support to South Australia which is battling a massive, toxic algal bloom that has devastated the marine environment; Malcolm-Jamal Warner, the actor who played Theo Huxtable on The Cosby Show, has died at the age of 54 in an accidental drowning in Costa Rica
