A non-woke Christmas; The Greens’ show-trial & Australia’s proud history | The Mainstream S1E11

Share this edition:

See below for show notes:

On the latest episode of The Mainstream podcast, the Institute of Public Affairs’ Daniel Wild and John Roskam discuss why Dan is dressed to impress having recorded the episode after appearing before a Greens-led Senate committee into so-called ‘misinformation’ on “climate change”.

Dan provides some key, inside observations on the agenda of Labor and The Greens to use ‘misinformation’ as a smokescreen to shut down debate and censor the opinions of mainstream Australians.

John and Dan also discuss the Liberal Party’s ongoing debate about net zero and its climate and emissions policies. They both also look at a recent survey by the left-wing McKinnon organisation which shows that trust in federal politicians and the government is at an all-time low.

John also discusses Tony Abbott’s excellent book, Australia: A History, and explains why it is fast becoming a best-seller.
