About this episode
Less than a week after the Liberals came from behind to win in Canada, Australia's governing Labor Party has won the election there. Is the Trump effect in play once more? Also in the programme: Israel ramps up airstrikes on Syria, claiming to be defending the Druze minority; Poland boosts its defences in the face of the Russian threat; and we hear from an author shortlisted for the International Booker Prize – whose novel’s main character is based on her late sister.(IMAGE: Australia's Prime Minister Anthony Albanese celebrates at a Labor party election night event, after local media projected the Labor Party's victory, on the day of the Australian federal election, in Sydney, Australia, May 3, 2025 / CREDIT: REUTERS/Hollie Adams TPX IMAGES OF THE DAY)
