Why Alex Dyson is still trying to crack into politics + Headlines

Alex Dyson has been working in breakfast radio since 2010 and now he’s running for politics (again).

The radio presenter confirmed on his Matt & Alex - All Day Breakfast podcast with co-host Matt Okine that he’ll be running as an independent candidate for the Victorian seat of Wannon at the next federal election.

For the third time, he’ll go up against the Liberal Party’s Dan Tehan – former Minister for Trade, Tourism and Investment – who is the current sitting Member for the seat.

In this chat with Bension Siebert for The Briefing, Alex explains why he’s having another crack, and why he still thinks young people across the country should be engaged with federal politics.

Headlines:

Tough new penalties for badly behaved politicians to be unveiled today

Bodies of six Israeli hostages recovered from Gaza

DNC Day Two: Obamas to headline

World’s oldest person dies
