About this episode
Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has capped off the political year by tying the knot with his partner Jodie Haydon at the Lodge. Patricia Karvelas and Jacob Greber have some big thoughts about the strategic timing of the event (and Toto's tutu).
But things aren't looking quite so bright in the future, so what big political challenges is Labor facing in the year ahead?
