Australia correspondent Karen Middleton joins Kathryn with the latest on Australia's spat with China, and how PM Scott Morrison took a gentle swipe at NZ's Trade Minister Damien O'Connor for weighing in. Western Australia's Covid outbreak has come as a reality check for the whole country, but there's been some good news on the economic front with the Reserve Bank estimating Australia's economy will return to its pre-pandemic size by mid-year. Bad news on the sport front though, Australia's cricket tour of South Africa has been post-poned due to the new Covid strain there.
