In their Community Conversation on 21st October 2026, Brett and Keith welcomed back City of Greater Bendigo Deputy Mayor Cr. Karen Corr for a chat following a marathon council meeting on Monday night.
They talked about the strong focus on getting information out to the local area about decisions made at council; including the decision-making process and the importance of robust but respectful debate, and the ability to recognise that differences of opinion are healthy for a strong democratic process.
They also chatted about the terrible incident involving Independent Federal MP Helen Haynes and the dangers of the modern attitudes trending towards unhealthy conflict.
As always it was a great chat with Cr. Corr and well worth a listen.
