Why politicians are talking about abortions again

<p>Last week, late-term abortions came up as a point of contention in Australia&rsquo;s Parliament.&nbsp;</p> <p>It&rsquo;s all because of a new proposed bill that would make it illegal for companies to cancel paid parental leave if a baby dies or is born stillborn.</p> <p>So what&rsquo;s the connection between that and late-term abortions? And how common actually are late term abortions?</p> <p>We&rsquo;ll tell you what you need to know in today&rsquo;s podcast.&nbsp;<br /><br />Hosts: Billi FitzSimons and Sam Koslowski<br />Producer: Elliot Lawry</p> <p>Want to support The Daily Aus?
