About this episode
Australian politics is changing in ways it seems the Labor party and the Coalition haven’t yet come to terms with.
And as the electorate splinters, it’s becoming harder for governments to last more than three years.
Just months from an election where the outcome of a minority government looks likely, scare campaigns about “unholy alliances” have begun. It’s a sign that the two major parties are rattled by the prospect of what’s to come.
Today, author of Minority Report: The New Shape of Australian Politics George Megalogenis on the new battle lines between the city and the suburbs – and how the results of the Voice referendum are still reverberating throughout Australian politics.
