AUSTRALIAN ELECTION SPECIAL - How The Democracy Sausage Is Made

Alex Andreou talks to journalist, best-selling author - and former Wallaby - Peter FitzSimons about the results, the campaign, the Trump backlash, the extraordinary phenomenon of The Teals, and the inexportability of American culture wars. What lessons can Labour in the UK learn? ***SPONSOR US AT ⁠⁠⁠KO-FI.COM/QUIETRIOTPOD⁠⁠⁠*** ”The key transformation was when Donald Trump got elected. The vast majority of Australians looked at Trump aghast. Day after day after day, we have seen chaos on roller-skates. And most said: look, we may not know what we’re doing, but we’re not doing THAT.” “The Liberals have been wiped out. The problem is that I don’t see any potential leader among them who can say what needs to be said. And what needs to be said is: All you old white blokes who oppose marriage equality, out! All the people who deny the science of climate change, out! You are stinking up the place.” “Trumpian politics is about activating your base. So you get every nutter you can to vote for you. In Australia , everyone has to vote, so it’s not about activating any base. It’s about appealing to the largest number of people.” Our bookshop including many of the books we have featured can be found at ⁠⁠⁠uk.bookshop.org/shop/quietriot⁠⁠⁠ ***SPONSOR US AT ⁠⁠⁠KO-FI.COM/QUIETRIOTPOD⁠⁠⁠*** With Naomi Smith, Alex Andreou and Kenny Campbell – in cahoots with Sandstone Global.
