In this episode of Making Sense of Politics, we discuss the current political landscape, focusing on housing policy, government efficiency, and the implications of privatization. We critique the recent housing policies proposed by both major parties, emphasizing the supply-side issues rather than demand.
The conversation also touches on the role of government in public services, the rise of authoritarianism, and the influence of misinformation networks like the Atlas Network. Kate & Nancy advocate for media literacy and highlight the importance of understanding the origins of news sources. We conclude with a discussion on the challenges of climate change and the need for innovative housing solutions. In this conversation, Nancy and Kate discuss various themes surrounding politics, government efficiency, and the role of independents in the political landscape.
We explore the implications of privatization, the importance of public service, and the disconnect between wealthy politicians and ordinary citizens. The discussion also highlights community initiatives and activism, emphasizing that one person can make a significant difference. Additionally, we recommend media sources that provide alternative perspectives on current issues.
The podcast is our safe space for chatting politics from all sides. We have been talking about politics for many years, trying to make sense of it all. We have come across many other folks who are trying to do the same thing online and off.
We believe that a more informed engaged community creates a better country and a more accountable government. The last few years have shown us that politicians and government don’t always make the best decisions for constituents. What more can we do to create a better Australia?
So our new podcast, Making Sense of Politics, is born!
We will be seeing you monthly, video and audio, chatting about the current political landscape in Australia!
We would love to hear from you! Anything you would like to know more about? Any questions you have?
We promise to not be boring! See you soon 🙂
