If things go the Greens’ way this weekend, the party could hold the balance of power in a minority Labor government.

But given the prime minister’s famed antipathy towards the Greens – and the Labor Party’s continual approvals of new coal and gas projects – questions remain about whether they’ll really have any power at all.

Today, Greens leader Adam Bandt, on working with Albanese and what the Greens have to show for their record win last time around.

Brett Hosking is a fifth-generation grain and livestock farmer, and has seen his fair share of heartache and hard times.

But this time, it’s not a natural disaster or a foreign war that’s threatening to tip farmers over the edge, but a decision from the Victorian government.

The state has passed new compulsory acquisition laws which make it easier for energy companies to acquire farmers’ land and build transmission lines and renewable energy projects on it.

Today, Victorian Farmers Federation President, Brett Hosking, on why the government’s push to roll out renewables and transition lines in rural Australia has left farmers feeling devastated and disrespected.

Australians are in for a world of pain, with mortgages and rents set to rise after our second interest rate hike in as many months.

It was a line-ball decision from the Reserve Bank – with five members voting for a quarter of a percent jump and four against – putting our official cash rate at 4.1 per cent.

RBA Governor Michelle Bullock says high inflation left them with no choice, but others have slammed the call.

Today, Chief Economist at The Australia Institute, Greg Jericho, on why he thinks the RBA has got it horribly wrong.

The war in the Middle East has sent Australia’s fuel prices soaring.

And people are worried that if the battle between the US-Israel and Iran continues for another month – Australia may have to begin rationing fuel.

Already, drivers are panic buying, stockpiling and some country petrol stations are running dry.

Global oil supplies are under threat as Iran attacks tankers in the Strait of Hormuz.

Today, Tim Buckley, the Director of Climate Energy Finance, and the question: as the oil shock hits home, how high could the price at the pump really go?
