About this episode

Wednesday Headlines: Bruce Lehrmann's defamation case returns to court, Anthony Albanese has been called a “weak politician" by the Israeli PM, majority of land in NSW sold to developers instead of used as public housing, seven in 10 Australian’s who've signed up to the NDIS in the past year have autism, and a UK woman tries to take her annoying 20 and 30yo colleagues to court for socialising and wasting time.

Deep Dive: Australian’s are divided over whether property owners should have the right to use lethal force during a home invasion. 

While some argue we already have strong enough protections, tens of thousands of Queenslanders and Victorian’s are pushing to legislate Castle Law, to give home owner’s the right to use any force necessary if confronted with an intruder. 

In this episode of The Briefing, Tara Cassidy speaks with Castle Law advocate, Katter’s Australian Party leader Robbie Katter and Nick Dore of Fisher Dore lawyers about both sides of the contentious debate.
