Catch up on this week’s political events in our latest SpinProof podcast replay -where Denise speaks with our favourite regulars - Cheryl Kernot and Noely Neate. We covered it all — from the post-election fallout (Labor’s majority, the rise of independents, and what the result really tells us), to the ongoing chaos around Trump, and big moments in media with Antoinette Lattouf’s legal win against the ABC. Plus, the social media bans — and how a flawed process from the start has led to a highly flawed plan. Yet another great discussion.

Today Denise speaks with Suzie Holt - the community independent candidate for the regional QLD seat of Groom. In this wide ranging conversation they speak about the issues impacting the people of Groom, the benefits of having a representative focused solely on community need - and how the community independents movement offers a positive and constructive path forward in very volatile times. A great conversation!

A worthwhile listen.
