Summary ASKING THE PEOPLEAfter weeks of debate about whether to change Australia's marriage laws, the Government now says that asking the people is their preferred option. But how can they do that without going to an election? Well there is two main options - a referendum or a plebiscite. We take a closer look at both.** Asking the People will be next week's BtN #AskaReporter topic! **NEPAL REVISITEDNext week's episode will mark 4 months to the day that a massive earthquake struck the country of Nepal. In the days and weeks after the event, we checked in to see how kids were being affected. Now, we're going back. Are things back to normal? Or is there much more that needs to be done to help Nepalese kids return to life as it was.WAVE HILLThis week marks 40 years since a very important moment in our nation's history - the Wave Hill walk off.
