#340 - Basil Zempilas - Owning the Past: Politics, Parenting & Authenticity
Description
In this episode, we’re joined by the Leader of the Opposition in Western Australia, Liberal Party candidate Basil Zempilas. We dive into the tough terrain of modern politics—cutting through slander, avoiding personal attacks, and leading with authenticity. Basil opens up about his journey from the footy field to the media spotlight and now into political leadership. We discuss transparency around political donations, the influence of the mining and resources sector, and how being a father is shaping his perspective on cost of living and the future of WA. A refreshingly open chat about mistakes, growth, and what it really means to lead.
