The family of the murdered Australian baseballer Chris Lane have wept in court as they listen to the emergency call detailing the final moments of his life. Mr. Lane was shot in the back while jogging in the Auklahoma city of Duncan in 2013. A local resident has told the murder trial how she called 911 and tried to save Mr. Lane's life, but couldn't find the post. 

 

 

A leading Australian businessman says the prime minister should call a double dissolution to try to get his contentious¹ budget measures pass. Reserve Bank board member and Fairfax chairman Roger Kobert says the hostile senate has made governing almost impossible. The call comes at a state and territory leaders prepared to Canberra for a showdown over the GST cover. 

 

 

If I bring the promise doubly very in plain to, call a double dissolution, and say people of Australia you elected me and I can't govern now. 

 

 

Roger Kobert is there.
