O TYM ODCINKU
Former Industry Minister and outspoken backbencher, Ed Husic, joins Amanda Copp to argue that Australia needs to move from AI inquiries to action. He also has some frank words for the Prime Minister on how Labor handles disagreement. Here’s a taste… “If you cannot argue points of view within a cabinet or a caucus, how are you supposed to argue them outside?”
Then, POLITICO Australia editor Ryan Heath joins Amanda to discuss the stalling EU–Australia trade deal and the questions facing the Greens over Senator Jordon Steele-John.
