In this episode of The Court of Public Opinion, Jeremy Cordeaux takes a no-holds-barred approach to major headlines and cultural tensions sweeping across Australia. From Qantas’ PR trainwreck and leadership changes to the latest on immigration controversies, Jeremy draws a straight line between media spin and what Australians are really thinking. He reflects on the legacy of John Howard, the public’s growing distrust of institutions, and the increasing disconnect between average Aussies and political elites. Plus, he slams the hypocrisy of the "Welcome to Country" trend, questions university standards, and examines where multiculturalism has veered off course.
