Tom is joined by Mehreen Faruqi, federal senator for NSW and Deputy Leader of the Australian Greens. Can the ‘ceasefire’ in the war on Iran be trusted? And why won’t Australia call out war crimes? (4:36) On that note, Victoria Cross recipient Ben Roberts-Smith was arrested charged with five counts of the war crime of murder! But is he now commander of the culture war? (32:34) Finally, what is the new national anti-racism framework that Australian Human Rights Commission is proposing? How can we fight against Hanson and One Nation’s racism? (48:23)
