About this episode

Karl Stefanovic discusses Australia's shifting political landscape with Pauline Hanson, Mark Latham, and Derek Francis, focusing on voter frustration and economic issues.

Australia’s political landscape is shifting — and the major parties are under pressure. On Karl Weekly, Karl Stefanovic is joined by One Nation leader Pauline Hanson, former Labor leader Mark Latham and economist Derek Francis for a wide-ranging look at the issues driving voter frustration across the country. Pauline Hanson weighs in as One Nation surges and takes aim at the direction of the country, while Mark Latham argues Australians are looking for someone to “shake up the system” after two decades of major-party failure. Economist Derek Francis breaks down where taxpayer money is going, why he believes government spending is holding back economic growth, and the enormous opportunity Australia could be missing by failing to capitalise on its uranium and mineral wealth. Plus, Latham delivers his verdict on Anthony Albanese, the controversy surrounding the Prime Minister’s comedy appearance and whether Australia is witnessing the end of politics as a two-party contest.
