The Socceroos secured a 3-1 win over New Zealand in Auckland to retain the “Soccer Ashes,” with Mohamed Toure scoring twice and Nestory Irankunda adding a solo goal. The victory underlined Australia’s emerging attacking talent ahead of next year’s World Cup, keeping coach Tony Popovic’s unbeaten run intact.
In Canberra, Prime Minister Anthony Albanese called on Liberal Senator Jacinta Nampijinpa Price to apologise to Indian Australians after remarks linking migration to political advantage. Opposition Leader Sussan Ley has resisted pressure to intervene, while other Liberal MPs have issued apologies on Price’s behalf. The dispute highlights tensions over the party’s standing with multicultural communities.
Meanwhile, the Western Australian Supreme Court has ordered former staffer Brittany Higgins to cover 80 percent of Senator Linda Reynolds’ legal costs following a defamation ruling. The order could exceed $1.5 million, marking a major financial setback after Reynolds won her case in August.
Internationally, Nepal’s Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli resigned after violent anti-corruption protests left at least 19 people dead. In Thailand, former Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra was ordered to serve a one-year prison term for graft convictions, a ruling likely to deepen the country’s political divide.
