Last week, women across the world were furious when a leaked document revealed the US Supreme Court is considering overturning a ruling from 50 years ago that gives women the legal right to have an abortion, putting all American women's reproductive rights at risk. Many have queried how and why the document was leaked, but the bigger questions are why are these judges even considering overturning Roe V. Wade, and what will happen to all the women who need access to abortions for a wide variety of reasons? The Quicky speaks to an international law expert and four women who have had abortions for different reasons, to find out just how dangerous this ruling could be to the health and wellbeing of all women, including in Australia.

“There’s a saying in law that hard cases make bad law,” says Dr Colin Campbell. “Judges will sometimes do what they think is right in a particular case, but in doing that they will muck up the law." Numerous inquiries have uncovered widespread discrimination and exclusion against children at government schools around Australia. While state-run education departments are tasked with the responsibility of fixing this problem, there’s another institution in our society that has a major role to play: our courts. But the leading court case that dictates how the courts play this role - and which judges around Australia are obliged to follow - is seriously flawed.

Software developer and digital rights advocate, Andrew Jones explains the event and the thinking behind it.

The practice of “confession” is under scrutiny following the announcement of a Royal Commission into institutional responses to child sexual abuse. A number of State and Federal MPs have come out against absolute secrecy when dealing with confessions – an idea Priests are calling “inviolable”. The centuries old practice requires the congregation to tell their sins to their Priest in absolute confidentiality in order to be absolved. 2SER’s Sam Buckingham-Jones spoke with Professor Sarah Joseph, Director of the Castan Centre for Human Rights Law at Monash University, about the legal obligations of confession.
