Guardian Essential report: Australians don’t want the war on Iran – Australian politics podcast
About this episode
The episode discusses Australians' views on the government's support for the US's war on Iran and the implications of this relationship.
After Australia became one of the first countries to back the US’s war on Iran, this month’s poll shows voters are questioning Canberra’s relationship with the US and an increasingly unpredictable Donald Trump. Political reporter Josh Butler and the Essential Media executive director, Peter Lewis, discuss why Australians want the government to broaden our diplomatic relationships and if voters are blaming the government for being dragged along on Trump’s latest alarming intervention
