OM DENNE EPISODE
You’ll be hearing the word Farrer a lot in the Aussie news media for the next few weeks - it’s the site of a federal by-election on 9 May. But the stakes for this by-election are unusually high - particularly on the conservative side of politics. With One Nation riding high in the polls, they’re a genuine chance to win a lower house seat that’s only ever been held by the Liberal or National parties. So on this Squiz Shortcut, we’ll tell you about Farrer, who’s running, and why it’ll be such a focus over the next month.
