Australia s second pandemic — gendered violence

Barnaby Joyce’s recent return to the Nationals’ leadership and Deputy Prime Minister position, having resigned in 2018 after allegations of sexual harassment, is grist to the mill. Not everyone in the Coalition is happy, however, reflecting broader sentiment among women where support appears to be diving. Misogyny and structural inequalities mean that First Nations’ women, women of colour, trans women and women with disability are disproportionately affected by the rise in violence during the pandemic. In addition, the United Nations (UN) Population Fund reported that access to sexual and reproductive health information and services have been curtailed over this period.

Unemployment rate falls below 5 per cent for the first time in decade

Unemployment rate falls below 5 per cent for the first time in decade Australia s unemployment rate has fallen below 5 per cent for the first time in a decade, but the new data does not take into account the impact of the Greater Sydney lockdown. The rate dropped from 5.1 per cent to 4.9 per cent in June, according to Australian Bureau of Statistics data released this morning. The rise in employment over the month was due to a robust increase in full-time employment, up by 51,600 (or 0.6 per cent) in June, to a record high of 9,016,800. Full-time employment is now 151,700 (or 1.7 per cent) higher than it was in March 2020.
