A teen has been shot dead by police after a knife attack in Perth, Australia. Western Australia Police Commissioner Col Blanch said the incident had hallmarks of a terror attack. The 16-year-old had been part of an anti-radicalisation support program since 2022. The boy called 000 to report that he was about to commit acts of violence. Before the attack, he had sent messages to contacts urging them to clear their phones and laptops of anything illegal or related to Jihad. Plus, Australia’s student loan system is set to change. Australia correspondent Steve Price tells Mike Hosking the salary threshold for repayments had previously been set to be in line with inflation. Recent high inflation levels and cost of living have caused a rethink, with the threshold now set to be in line with wage increases instead.
