Trump, Costello, al-Zawahiri - Former PM John Howard opens the book
Published 3 years, 9 months ago
Description
John Howard was elected to the House of Representatives for Bennelong in 1974 and what followed has read like a political fairytale. He became Australia’s 25th Prime Minister after leading the Coalition to a resounding victory in 1996 and became our second longest serving PM.
The former Prime Minister led the nation through some truly testing times - the economic recession of the 1980s, the Port Arthur massacre but also through major historical moments like 9/11 and the Sydney 2000 Olympics.
This episode of Something To Talk About was recorded in Sydney on August 3rd 2022.
