Episode Details

In this episode, we explore the media's exaggerated reports of a rift between Prime Minister Anthony Albanese and Environment Minister Tanya Plibersek—a conflict that appears more fiction than fact that was triggered by yet another failed approach to the environment. We look at the Australian Greens' proposal for a progressive alliance with the Labor Party, a move that has sparked dissatisfaction within Labor ranks. Meanwhile, the Liberal Party's efforts to win back voters from the teal independents take a confrontational turn, with tactics that risk alienating the electorate even further. Finally, we discuss why it's time to abandon outdated neoliberal economic policies and embrace a more equitable and sustainable future. #auspol
