As the last of the pandemic premiers steps down, what will their legacy be?

This week, Queensland’s long-serving leader Anastasia Palaszczuk announced her resignation, signalling the end of the reign of Australia’s pandemic premiers.
Leaders of the states and territories became household names during the height of the COVID years between 2020 and 2022. People tuned in daily for their press conferences, their policies (and personalities) were the topic of dinner table conversations and they often found themselves splashed all over the internet in the form of Tik Tok dances or memes.
In today’s episode of The Briefing, Sacha Barbour Gatt speaks with veteran political journalist Andrew Probyn about the big moments for the pandemic premiers and asking: what will their legacy be?

Headlines:

Cyclone Jasper leaves 36,000 homes without power

Nations at the UN climate summit agree to transition away from fossil fuels

Tesla is recalling more than two million vehicles in the US
