See below for show notes:
IPA Deputy Executive Director Daniel Wild and IPA Research Fellow Cian Hussey discuss why two Bobs: Sir Robert Menzies and Bob Hawke would have backed One Nation; the real reason Tony Burke delayed his Press Club address on immigration and what this says about Labor’s internal divisions; what a thought experiment about the 2028 election reveals if the polling is correct about One Nation’s seat winning surge, and why international precedent suggests some Liberals could prefer to govern with Labor rather than One Nation. Cian and Dan also share their enthusiasm for Australia’s sheer domination in the Commonwealth Games, and why Jacinta Allan would still be Premier if the Games had of been kept in Victoria.
