ELECTION 2016: THE RESULTS</br>Charles Wooley reports the latest results from Election 2016, the winners and losers, and assesses where Australia is headed now.</br></br>GREAT WHITE HOPE</br>The mantra of marine experts is that the risk of being taken by a shark while swimming, surfing or diving is so miniscule it's not even worth thinking about. But it seems lately the rate of shark attacks has been increasing dramatically. Every new incident, every tragic death or horrific injury, invariably leads to heated debate about the need to cull sharks so humans can be safe in the water. On 60 MINUTES, a breakthrough which could save man and beast - new technology whose makers are confident will keep us apart. But as Ross Coulthart reports, there's only one way to find out if it really works and that involves getting very close to very large sharks.</br></br>IROBOT</br>Advances in technology mean scientists and engineers have been able to create robots that literally have minds of their own. Liz Hayes meets Sophia, Herb and Baxter, and explains how they're making our lives easier. These robots work non-stop and never whinge. But perhaps there is too much of a good thing because of a growing risk that these bundles of technological wizardry are becoming too smart for their - and our - own good.</br></br>NOT SO GREAT BRITAIN</br>When Britain voted to leave the European Union just days ago the rest of the world was caught completely unaware. Almost immediately, however, the decision assumed the proportions of an ugly divorce as politicians on both sides of the English Channel began bickering about the logistics of how and when to sever ties. Brexit has also created disturbing divisions in England, especially over immigration policy, but as Liz Hayes reports from London, there is one man who could not be happier. Nigel Farage is the leader of the United Kingdom Independence Party and the key architect of the split from Europe. He's spent the last 17 years working towards this very moment.</br> |
