It is budget week in Australia, but the\xa0UN\u2019s assembly\u2019s vote to approve resolution granting Palestine new rights is dominating debate in federal parliament. \xa0

Australian Minister for Foreign Affairs Penny Wong called the vote a move toward a two-state solution that would lead to greater security for Israel and Palestine. Opposition spokesman accused the government of undermining decades of bipartisanship.\xa0

Australia correspondent Steve Price tells Mike Hosking the country is seeing a rise in anti-Semitism as the issue continues.\xa0

Meanwhile, children in South Australia under the age of 14 will potentially be banned from social media following growing evidence that social media is harming children\u2019s mental health.\xa0
