Australia correspondent Bernard Keane joins Kathryn to talk about more charges being laid against former radio host Alan Jones - he now faces 26 charges against nine alleged victims.

In a surprise move, the Coalition has announced it'll vote against Labor's bill to cap international student numbers.

And the Albanese government says it's willing to consider Coalition amendments to proposed limits on political donations and disclosure thresholds.
