Headlines: Triple zero text trial
Notas do episódio
Today's headlines include:
- The Government is trialling giving people the ability to text Triple Zero. If effective, the change would allow people to contact emergency dispatchers in times when a voice call might not be practical.
- Conservative Brazilian Senator Flavio Bolsonaro says police have asked him to turn in his passports, days after the country’s election saw his opponent Lula da Silva return to office.
- Dementia is causing more than one in 10 deaths in Australia, prompting urgent calls for more resources to tackle the disease.
- And today’s good news: Four runners have broken the world record for the fastest crossing of Australia’s east coast on foot, raising over $300,000 to help end child trafficking in the process.
