Mackenzie Won't Be Home For Christmas, Australia's Shame Is Why
Congratulations Australia, you’ve surpassed a 2021 milestone. We say this with no joy because it’s not a milestone you want to surpass, it’s one we’ve been actively trying to turn around for years but despite the tireless efforts of thousands of people across the country, 47 women have died at the hands of a violent man in Australia this year, one more than the year before. That’s 47 women who will not be joining their families these holidays, 45 families who will be grieving instead of celebrating. Today, we meet the mother of one of those women as we learn the names of many more who won’t be with their families this Christmas. Subscribe to Mamamia GET IN TOUCH Feedback? We’re listening!

Where Can Harry & Meghan Go From Here?
In this last instalment of Harry & Meghan's Netflix documentary, we heard some hard truths about how the firm works, how the Houses of Cambridge and Wales actively worked against the House of Sussex. We heard about deeply personal moments, deeply upsetting experiences and just a glimmer of hope that maybe, these two can now finally move forward with their lives. So where to from here? Today, we look at whether there’s any going back for H & M and whether the family rift, now a gaping wound, can ever be healed for the Windsors. Subscribe to Mamamia GET IN TOUCH Feedback?

Would You Have Felt Ready To Vote When You Were 16?
Would 16 year old you have been switched on enough to make an informed decision at the polling booth? The greens are pushing to lower the voting age to 16 saying our democracy is stronger when more people are able to participate in decision making, but are we giving 16 year olds too much credit? are we armed with enough information and maturity to make that call at that age? Today we listen to both sides of the argument for allowing 16 and 17 year olds make the choice on who runs the country. Subscribe to Mamamia GET IN TOUCH Feedback? We’re listening!
