Labor of Love, Trade Wars, Virginia's Fight

Labor of Love
There's a very good reason why the House of Representatives in Canberra is about to become a better place. Ali France. She won for the Labor Party the Queensland seat of Dickson, previously held for 24 years by the now former Opposition Leader Peter Dutton. That alone means she's history-making, but it's not what makes her truly remarkable. In a freak car accident 14 years ago, she almost died trying to save the life of one of her sons. Then, early last year, she lost her other son after he succumbed to cancer. For many people there would be no coming back from tragedy like this. But as Tara Brown discovers, Ali France is not one of them. She's inspired by the love of her boys to be the best member of parliament she can be.

Trade Wars
A long time ago, 21 years to be exact, in a capital far, far away, Washington DC, Australia and the United States signed an historic free trade agreement. At the time it was a new hope for shared prosperity. Everyone was pleased, especially the Americans who, truth be told, probably got the better end of the deal. But now that pact seemingly counts for nothing. Donald Trump says he's sick of America being ripped off by other nations, including Australia, and has decreed his empire will strike back. Negotiating with the undeniable force of the U.S. President won't be easy for Australia's re-elected prime minister, Anthony Albanese. However, as Dimity Clancey reports, it's a mission he has no option but to get right.

Virginia's Fight
Sex abuse survivor Virginia Giuffre first appeared on 60 MINUTES six years ago.  Back then she was in combat mode, determined to bring to account the notorious trio of Jeffrey Epstein, Ghislaine Maxwell and Prince Andrew. Tragically though, her brave crusade for justice and an end to human sex trafficking took a heavy toll, and two weeks ago, haunted by physical and emotional scars, she died at her home north of Perth, aged 41. As Tara Brown reports, those closest to Virginia will always be awed by her strength and the hope she gave to so many.
