Brent sits down with Jason Morrison for The Morrison Brief, unpacking the news and politics shaping Australia today. From rising prices to national security, nothing is off limits.

What’s on the table:

• Inflation and the economy: Yesterday’s inflation figures show prices climbing again. Jason and Brent discuss who’s really to blame—government spending, the Reserve Bank, or both—and what it means for household budgets.

• China and the Port of Darwin: Canberra wants the port back, but Beijing isn’t happy. How often does Australia flinch, and when should national interest come first?

• Australia Day Weekend chaos: Hate speech, protests, and flag burning highlight inconsistency in law enforcement. What does this mean for fairness and trust in our communities?

• Coalition drama: Sussan Ley reaches out to David Littleproud amid internal party tensions and spill motions. Can the Liberals and Nationals find a path back to unity?
