  • Summary

  • A year on from the stunning October 7 attack by Hamas on Israeli towns, our parliament - on the other side of the world - is again convulsing over the widening war.

    As Prime Minister Anthony Albanese jets off to the influential ASEAN summit in Laos, he is trying to lower the temperature on a polarising domestic debate about antisemitism and Australia’s level of support for Israel’s invasion of Lebanon.

    One of the most prominent Australian backers of the Palestinian cause, Labor defector Fatima Payman, has started a new party just days after the PM and Opposition Leader Peter Dutton split on the question of how to commemorate the October 7 attack.

    Today, political editor and international editor Peter Hartcher and political reporter Natassia Chrysanthos join Paul Sakkal on the fallout from the October 7 motion.
