Episode description

Daniel Hurst, Guardian Australia’s foreign affairs and defence correspondent, speaks to Mike Burgess, the head of Australia’s domestic intelligence agency Asio, about the allegations he made this week that an unnamed former Australian politician was recruited by spies for a foreign regime. They also discuss increased community tensions in Australia as the Israel-Gaza conflict continues and whether Asio needs more oversight.
