  • On the verge of an invasion of Rafah, is a ceasefire possible?
    May 7 2024
    Israeli airstrikes are targeting the southernmost city in Gaza and tanks have been seen entering the outskirts of the city. Rafah was once the last safe haven in Gaza, where civilians fleeing Israeli bombardment had been told to seek refuge. The United States, along with international allies, have long pushed for Israel not to invade the city. Today, Middle East correspondent for The Economist Gregg Carlstrom, on Rafah and what it would take to clinch a last-ditch ceasefire deal.

  • The lobbyists behind Peter Dutton’s nuclear promise
    May 6 2024
    It’s a small mystery in Australian politics: Why was Peter Dutton’s first major policy as opposition leader a promise to build nuclear power plants? On the surface, it doesn’t seem like an obvious vote winner and early polling shows most Australians are yet to be convinced. But this may be less about votes and more about holding the Coalition together, with the help of a lobby group most of us have never heard of. Today, investigative journalist and contributor to The Monthly Marian Wilkinson on the Coalition for Conservation lobby and their links to Peter Dutton’s nuclear promises.

Left wing tripe

This podcast is strongly left wing and biased. It always paints Liberals in a bad light. Not worth it.
