RACIAL TENSION IN SYDNEY
Following days of violence in Sydney's Southern beach suburbs, the New South Wales state parliament will be recalled from their Christmas break on Thursday to pass new laws allowing police to shut down public areas, close liquor shops and hotels, as well as to search and confiscate cars. The new laws will also increase jail terms for riot-related offences from five to 15 years. Cinnamon Nippard has more from Sydney.
