View from the Round House with Martin Drum – Political Pipe Dreaming

Welcome back to our politics podcast, View From The Round House With Martin Drum.

Round House, Fremantle 

Today, our Editor, Michael Barker asks the Prof what he thinks the pipe dreaming of Australian political parties looks like right now, with the new Community Strong (Teal) Party just launched, the Liberal Party of WA Nedlands MLA Jonathon Huston pulling stumps and going all Independent and seemingly community strong, One Nation doing well in the polls, the Libs and Nats in apparent disarray but forging on, Labor doing its best to show it is not only governing responsibly but cares about voters too, and the Greens and other minors attending to some navel gazing as well. What does the Prof think their various aims and hopes will be between now and the next Federal election in May 2028?
