138 - Jeff Sparrow (Returns)
Episode description
He's back! The socialist journalist, author, broadcaster and activist Jeff Sparrow is back to help make sense of the election result.
Hear what Jeff makes of the idea that the ALP should return to the "sensible centre", how unconvincing Bill Shorten was as a progressive leader, the radical response that the climate crisis requires, where to next for the #StopAdani campaign, the fate of The Greens and whether class warfare is really over (hint: it's not).
