Mike speaks with Terry Barnes, former adviser in the Howard government, about two key political developments.

First, Angus Taylor has launched a sharp attack on the Albanese government, promising “one hell of a fight” in the upcoming by-election in the seat formerly held by Sussan Ley.

Meanwhile, Treasurer Jim Chalmers is gathering leading economists in Canberra for a roundtable to discuss possible tax reforms and spending restraint ahead of the May federal budget, with the Middle East conflict shaping the economic outlook.

Wake Up with Mike Jeffreys - Monday 9th March

Mike speaks with Lucy Zelić, award-winning broadcaster, Daily Telegraph columnist and 2GB host, about her latest article arguing that the Australian Labor Party is out of touch on family issues.

The discussion follows criticism of Tim Wilson after comments about women having children. Zelic says the reaction highlights a wider political disconnect with voters and debates over childcare, work-from-home arrangements, and declining birth rates.

She argues that policies around childcare and family support should prioritise parents raising their own children, rather than relying heavily on government-subsidised care.
