Interview with Kate Thwaites MP

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).

Walk for Truth, a Teal Party & More 'ISIS Brides'

Patty takes us through the week of... somewhat bizarre local politics.

Dana goes over the fact that Russia visited China exactly a week after America, dasvidaniya Thucydides!

And Bernie brings us up to date on the interception of the Freedom Flotilla over international waters.

Deceptive Politics, Thucydides, and the Freedom Flotilla

Can we use Thucydides' account of the Peloponnesian War to guide us on US-China relations? Man who knows, whatever.

Anyway, we also had the privilege of talking to Andrew Bretherton the convenor for Accessible Victorian Greens and a member of Disability Rights & Culture on his experience with the imposed bureaucracy of being a disabled person and what the NDIS cuts actually mean.
