Democracy Sausage: Opportunity in chaos
Frank Bongiorno joins Mark to discuss his new role, instructional history, and the fallout for Australian politics.
What does the Middle East conflict mean for Australia and how instructive is the past in drawing parallels with the chaos of today? Will a global recession benefit One Nation in marginal, outer suburban electorates? How worried should the National Party be in the upcoming Farrer by-election? Can Albo manage the Trump relationship?
