Bad Behaviour, Bushfires and Rebuilding Reputations

This week on Q+A… beleaguered Qantas chief Alan Joyce's abrupt departure hasn't halted the turbulence for the flying kangaroo, with the airline's board facing increased pressure over Joyce's tarnished legacy and growing calls to return JobKeeper funds. Can new CEO Vanessa Hudson turn the airline's fortunes around?

Meanwhile, the PM's been stuck with the baggage of the storm and is facing a Senate inquiry over his government's Qatar decision. Anthony Albanese has jetted out for a series of international talks and confirmed he'll visit China in the coming months, the first PM in seven years to make an official visit to the country after accepting President Xi's invitation.

Here at home, outgoing Reserve Bank boss Philip Lowe has given borrowers an interest rate reprieve, but warns that there may be more hikes ahead to curb inflation. How will new RBA chief Michele Bullock approach the challenges ahead?

And as Australia prepares for a long, hot summer – how ready are we for what lies ahead?
