Episode description

We’re seeing a fitting end to a tumultuous year – parliament was urgently recalled to thrash out an energy deal, and a former prime minister grilled in front of a royal commission.

This week’s showdowns were stark reminders of just how much our politics has transformed since January.

But have the major parties learnt the right lessons from 2022? Who has listened to voters? And who’s at risk of losing touch?

Today, columnist for The Saturday Paper Paul Bongiorno on how Adam Bandt, Peter Dutton and Anthony Albanese ended their year and what that tells us about the political battles ahead of us in 2023.
