About this episode

Mark Kenny and Frank Bongiorno discuss the implications of the Middle East conflict for Australia and the current political landscape.

What does the Middle East conflict mean for Australia and how instructive is the past in drawing parallels with the chaos of today? Will a global recession benefit One Nation in marginal, outer suburban electorates? How worried should the National Party be in the upcoming Farrer by-election? Can Albo manage the Trump relationship? Frank Bongiorno joins Mark to discuss his new role, instructional history, and the fallout for Australian politics. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
