Monday: 44% of women murdered by a partner in Queensland previously misidentified as perpetrator. Plus: report predicts turnaround in budget fortunes

Good morning - it's Monday 3 May, and this is Imogen Dewey with today's headlines. Just over a week out from the federal budget, Australia's economy looks happier" than many expected. Meanwhile, India's prime minister may be facing fallout from the ongoing coronavirus catastrophe, and amid questions over systemic failings in its domestic violence response, Queensland police are being asked to look inward.

Almost half the women murdered by an intimate partner in Queensland had previously been labelled by police as the perpetrator of domestic violence, research has found. As the Queensland police force again reckon with the brutal consequences of family violence - the deaths of Gold Coast women Doreen Langham and Kelly Wilkinson, who both repeatedly sought help - they have acknowledged and pledged to address systemic failings in their response. But there are already concerns among experts and women's advocates that police are resisting the need to look too deeply within.
