Episode description
Dunn Street founder and Community Organiser Stephen Donnelly was joined by federal member for Lilley, Labor’s Anika Wells.
Anika joins Stephen fresh from attending the National Press Club in Canberra, where Brittany Higgins and Grace Tame gave impassioned addresses on gender violence and sexual harassment, to give her opinions on the mood at the Press Club, the takeaways from Higgins and Tame’s speeches, and their interactions from the press.
She remarks on how Higgins and Tame’s addresses will have a huge impact on the public discussion on systemic issues affecting women, at work and home, and how it highlights the failings of the Morrison government in addressing them.
Anika discusses the run up to the election, speculating when it will be called, how Scott Morrison’s latest scandals influence both the election date and the public’s sentiment towards him, and what Labor needs to do to give itself the best chance of success in 2022.
