This Sunday, 60 Minutes Australia presents two new stories: “Helter Shelter” and “Uncle Donald.” The episode airs at 8:40 pm on Channel 9.
In “Helter Shelter,” Dimity Clancey reports on Australia’s housing crisis and the Federal Government’s ambitious plan to address it. With the growing demand for housing, the government has set a target of building 1.2 million new homes in the next five years. This translates to approximately 650 houses and apartments completed each day until mid-2029.
However, many doubt the feasibility of this massive undertaking. Dimity Clancey looks at the stories of Australians struggling to find affordable housing and explores potential solutions to this troubling issue.
In “Uncle Donald,” Amelia Adams takes us inside the world of Donald Trump’s presidential campaign and the counter-attack he faces from an unexpected source: his own family. Trump, known for his ruthless political tactics, has upped the ante in his bid to regain the presidency, resorting to increased belittling and slandering of his opponents.
However, a damning memoir by his nephew, Fred Trump, reveals a side of the former president that shows a new level of cruelty and nastiness. Amelia Adams investigates the impact of these revelations and explores the dynamics within the Trump family as election day approaches.
