170: A long first week & Temu Trump ft. Stephen Bates, MP for Brisbane
Episode description
We are a Labor podcast now. Lol gotcha April Fools! Emerald and Tom catch up on the stories from the first week of the federal election campaign (10:20). The days are short, but the weeks are also short! Greens announce policies on environment and education, and Labor announce a familiar-sounding policy on supermarket price gouging. Then they are joined by Greens MP for Brisbane, Stephen Bates! (39:53) How is the campaign going as he looks to repeat his shock 2022 win? Why did he call Dutton ‘Temu Trump’ in Question Time? Why does Labor think they can get away with running a candidate who is currently a director at Deloitte? Finally, a call to action (1:05:30).
