Big Marty Bella, a renegade from the sugar cane town of Sarina. He played 28 Origins for Queensland and plenty of NRL. He's also a physio and local councillor in Mackay. He does not miss when it comes to Pauline Hanson. Marty refreshes all of us on how things work in the Deep North. This is some old school North Queensland politics.

WEEKLY BULLETIN: WTF Are Consultants?, Good Grandson, Office NPC & Socceroos vs Salah

We spoke to Bill about a whole range of things from how current Treasurer Jim Chalmers is a shameless plagiarist who has pawned Bill's signature policy ideas off as his own, such as putting the dog up property investors and making tech start up guys quiver in their sneakers. Also returning money to workers and other woke rubbish like that designed to be divisive. As much as Bill wanted to let sleeping dogs lie, we didn't let him. Espeically on the university sector, now that he's compromised by being a Chancellor of the so-called Canberra Uni that they call a university.  So for some raw opinions and an empty promise to award Errol a Doctor of Letters, listen now.
