Deceptive Politics, Thucydides, and the Freedom Flotilla

This week Represent speaks with one of the youngest women ever elected to the Victorian Parliament, Animal Justice Party MP Georgie Purcell, about why voters should care about animal justice issues, sexism in parliament, and the political legacy she hopes to leave behind.

Zoe takes us through very controversial ginormous data centres planned for Melbourne's western suburbs and our ever-increasing, insatiable demand for AI and digital services. 

Patty explains how a Somali FIFA referee was denied entry to the US ahead of the 2026 World Cup in North America, with the Trump administration claiming he posed a 'security threat' (riiight...).

Democracy is a big old word. But what does it actually mean? Or better yet, what does it look like?

We get an answer to this with Ross Coulter's 'Picturing Democracy'.

The exhibition that dove into the City of Port Phillip City archives to create a local view of democracy that spans over 100 years.

That exhibition is now over but still available for viewing on www.coultercoulter.com

We spoke to Ross about his experience in bringing the exhibition together and his biggest takeaways now that it's over.

Picturing Democracy with Ross Coulter

Zoe covers the thousands of people who took part in the National Walk For Truth all the way from Naarm, on Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung Country, to Parliament House in Canberra on Ngunnawal and Ngambri Country.

Bernie discusses the rumored possibility of a socially progressive, fiscally conservative (huh?) 'Teal' party.

Finally, Dana talks about the new wave of 'ISIS Brides' that have returned home and why the term 'ISIS Bride' leaves a bad taste in her mouth (hello year 11 The Wife of Martin Guerre).
