 Now, leading our news this morning. Opposition1 Leader Bill Shorten has confirmed he wants Labor2 to support turning back asylum3 seeker boats. The policy reversal has exposed internal divisions within Labor with members of the left faction4 promising5 to oppose the move. Mr. Shorten has admitted the mistakes were made when Labor was in power, and that the turn-back policy works.

“It’s not easy though because, you know, involves the admission, I think. The mistake was made when Labor was last in government, and for myself, if I want to be the leader of this nation, I’ve got to be able to face the truth.” Bill Shorten at 7:30 last night. Now in breaking news, the ABC has announced it will begin closing ABC shops around the country which could affect up to 300 jobs.

It says it’s considering the impact of the decision and will consult staff over the coming months.
