it is as crucial to australia's national security today as it has ever been. since the 12th of september 2014, when the national terrorism threat was elevated, australia has experienced four terror related attacks and four potential attacks were disrupted by agencies. as i have said before, a number hadhose disruptions, which they not been interdicted, what had led to the death of many australians, were the direct consequence of the deep intelligence sharing between australia and its allies and in particular the united states. the turnbull government understands that. >> locally, there has been debate about the racial discrimination act in this country, and labor has been critical of the proposed word change in the act. >> the leader of the opposition. >> thank you. my question to the prime minister appeared today is harmony day, the intruder -- international day for the elimination of racial discrimination. why on today, of all days, is the prime minister charged in weakening protections against racist hate speech? >> think the honorable member of his questio

david: you did not think you would go back to australia? james: no, but i did not think we would have a financial crisis. david: right. australians seem even keeled, and consultants are even keeled, so you seem to be an even keeled guy, but wall street ceos are thought to be people who throw things at walls, scream, yell, slam phones down. so is that image wrong? or have you just succeeded even though you are low-key or do you actually throw things as well? [laughter] james: you seem modest and controlled in your personality. aren't you used to ceos who are throwing things? james: i think if you are the 7th of 12 children, you don't want to be the thrower. that is not going to end so well. no, i think part of it is honestly just personality and a probably helps shape you. your family obviously does. but i think these businesses have been on a 30-year transition from very tightly held private partnerships where frankly, more extreme the personal behavior, taking more risk because it's your own money, etc., etc., was par for the course. versu

canberra is right at the centre of australia's struggle with same—sex marriage. polls suggest there is public support but the politicians here in parliament simply can't agree the best way forward, a nationwide vote planned for earlier this year had to be scrapped because of fears it would stoke homophobic hatred. because the central purpose of marriage is to produce offspring... those campaigning against same—sex marriage claimed their views are being discriminated against, and they'd prefer countries like britain to keep out of the debate. just because britain has made a decision doesn't mean australia has to follow suit. we're seeing the negative consequences of the decision britain has made in terms of the impact on the rights and freedoms of other people in the uk, particularly people of faith. so i think it's up to australia to make its own decision and not to be swayed by what other nations might do. to mr simon tolhurst and mr benjamin waldorf, husband and husband. ben and simon's same—sex marriage means there have now been 380 under british law in au

that is because australia is a very important ally in the region for the us. absolutely. australia is seen as some kind of guardian really for the us, point of view. 0ne phrase we heard from the vice president over and over again was that all options remain on the table when it comes to dealing with north korea. he stressed that us naval best vessels, —— us naval vessels may have a misunderstanding of the space in the region, they would be where they can actively be but counterbalanced to that, he spoke about the importance of china and what he says it will president trump leaves are encouraging signs from china but their willingness to act and take advantage of what he says unique economic role, their lifeline they provide north korea, in imposing sanctions and ringing the regime into line to ensure that the nuclear situation there doesn't become even hotter. what would have been good news to malcolm turnbull, he would have been happy to hear that mike pence did on the deal with australia to resettle refugees. now, this was at the heart of that awkward conversation b

i think this is where australia can actually have a role. australia's relationship with china is quite strong. it is a strong trading partner. we understand that malcolm turnbull may have had discussions around the time of mike pence's visit with china to reinforce the point that china must act in order to make sure the world is secure. as air force to take stock from sydney, mike pence will be reassured. —— force ii. australia now feels it has a strong friend in the white house. wrinkles in the bilateral relationship between australia and america, indeed. how will this move forward in repairing these strained relations? as you heard from the newspaper headlines, the presidential tweets from donald trump have kind of befuddled few people around the world, that includes officials in australia. they will see the vice president has a man they can do business with. there is a retention of serious politics. it is notjust all done on social media. people will be emboldened about that nearly century long relationship with the us, australians fi
