It has been a "horrific" weekend of alleged domestic violence incidents in NSW, with three women and a child killed. The Police Commissioner says he can't remember a weekend like this, and the NSW opposition leader says "we need to be doing so much more". And, while the United Nations has called it the world's largest humanitarian crisis, it doesn't make headlines often – the Sudan civil war continues to cause mass displacement, risk of famine, and sexual violence. Plus, new research has revealed that despite shoppers knowing the harm fast fashion causes to the environment, they're buying anyway. So, what's going on there?
