Wall-to-wall Labor: What does it mean for Australia?

The recent NSW election result puts Labor in power right across the country, except for Tasmania. The last time – indeed, the only time – it has been in office in all nine of Australia's jurisdictions was for a few months between late November 2007 and early September 2008. So, why has this happened and what does it mean for Australian citizens?

In this episode we unpack how we have changed as a society and how the Liberal party has misread modern Australia.

Headlines:

- Inflation falls for second month
- Parliamentary inquiry into ADHD
- Peter Bol cleared by independent labs
- Prince Harry says palace knew about alleged phone hacking
- Elon Musk, Bill Gates call for pause on AI
