An election cheat sheet if you tuned out ages ago

What do I do when I get handed the two ballot papers on election day? One is the size of a tablecloth...and the other makes no sense at all. AND what key policies should I consider before I cast my vote?

Annika Smethurst joins Antoinette Lattouf on today’s Briefing to take us through the issues that matter pre-election day. Annika not only goes through the policies.....but also explains how the parliament works.....and why it’s so important to make sure you vote correctly.

So, on today’s Briefing.....an election cheat sheet if you tuned out ages ago.
