This week on Represent National, Benita, Fatima and Nayan look at the alleged attack on independent MP for Indi outside her electorate office in Wangaratta. The team discusses calls from public figures like the Prime Minister to 'turn down the temperature' politically, or whether this conversation should centre on gendered violence. 

The Victorian Labor Party has also promised to increase access to abortions if re-elected in the November state election, including covering out-of-pocket costs for pregnancies under 16 weeks. But why wait to lock this behind an election outcome? Why not legislate it sooner? Hmm...

Finally, Nayan walks us through the federal government's plans to sell off Defence properties across Australia, at an expected profit of close to $2 billion. As ever in Australian politics, these moves beg the age-old question: is our government prioritising short-term and ignoring long-term costs?
