15 NOV 2024 · We explore the government’s controversial plan to target under-16s with a social media ban, explore the continued media manipulation surrounding Israel, and examine why football violence seems to receive a troubling level of acceptance when perpetrated by racist Israeli football hooligans. Meanwhile, the mainstream media stirs up excitement over an early election that, in reality, shows no signs of materialising. May 2025, that’s when it’s going to held, and not likely to be before. #auspol #NoAgeBan

8 NOV 2024 · We analyze the aftermath of the US election, where Donald Trump’s victory signals the return of the conman, criminal and clown show. Vote Dutton, Get Rinehart? We ask if voting for Peter Dutton is bringing Gina Rinehart’s influence into federal politics, and the answer is probably “yes”. We also cover the current state of the economy, proposed changes to HECS debt policies, and the continued shortcomings of the National Anti-Corruption Commission, which has yet to meet public expectations. #auspol

1 NOV 2024 · In this episode, we analyze the results of the Queensland election and uncover who the real losers are, as the media moves to yet another issue to target the federal Labor government—this time, over alleged flight upgrades. We also discuss the release of the Covid-19 Report, which reveals the severe mismanagement of the pandemic response by the previous Coalition government, and we look at the approaching U.S. election, examining it as a reflection of an empire in decline. #auspol

25 OCT 2024 · Senator Lidia Thorpe confronts the king with her candid views on him and the royal family’s role in colonisation and genocide, raising the question of whether it’s time to reignite the debate about Australia becoming a republic and create a long overdue Treaty with Indigenous people. Meanwhile, the community-backed teal independent movement continues to grow at the expense of the Liberal Party, but Labor cannot afford to be complacent. Is 27 years in office good for democracy? If the Liberal Party isn’t fit for government, then yes, it absolutely is. #auspol

18 OCT 2024 · The National Anti-Corruption Commission has failed to do its job once again, this time finding no corruption in the Paladin affair. Meanwhile, one year after the defeat of the Voice to Parliament referendum, the issue of Indigenous recognition remains stalled. Upcoming elections in the ACT and Queensland are shaping up as potential litmus tests for the federal election, and Prime Minister Anthony Albanese is facing increasing political scrutiny over the recent purchase of a $4.3 million house in Copacabana during a national housing affordability crisis. #auspol

11 OCT 2024 · We explore a turbulent week in Australian politics: the Prime Minister sought to commemorate the victims of the October 7 attacks in Israel and Palestine, but faced sharp criticism from opposition leader Peter Dutton, who continues to push a divisive, far-right agenda. We examine how the Israel-Palestine conflict has deeply impacted Australia’s political landscape, with Labor trying to maintain balance, while the Liberal Party leans heavily in favour of Israel. We also look at the controversy surrounding NSW Premier Chris Minns response to pro-Palestinian protests, and the rise of a new political party, Australia’s Voice, as Australians increasingly seek alternatives to the traditional two-party system. #auspol

4 OCT 2024 · The Labor government has delivered its second consecutive surplus, but not everyone is pleased. Meanwhile, the Queensland election campaign is in full swing, a new special envoy for combating Islamophobia has been appointed, though few seem to know who it is, and the politics of the middle east and national security are becoming a heated topic of discussion in Australia. #auspol

27 SEP 2024 · Interest rates are on hold, but the Australian Greens are calling on the government to take control of the Reserve Bank. Meanwhile, questions arise about potential changes to negative gearing, while Peter Dutton's nuclear fantasy roadshow continues to unfold. At the same time, the world is paying the price for failing to hold the Israeli government accountable. #auspol

20 SEP 2024 · The reforms to aged care, seemingly pulled straight from the neoliberal playbook, are based on a user-pay mentality, and it’s no wonder they’re supported by the Liberal Party. So why are they supported by the Labor government? Meanwhile, a significant clash has been reignited over housing policy between the government and the Australian Greens, which has also triggered speculation about a double-dissolution election. And why is Australia’s ABC so intent on promoting Donald Trump in the US election? #auspol

13 SEP 2024 · In this episode, we discuss Bill Shorten’s departure from politics and the legacy he leaves behind, the proposed reforms to the Reserve Bank Board and yet another failure of bipartisanship, the protests against weapons exports in Melbourne, and the politics of mining and live sheep exports in the lead-up to the next federal election. #auspol
