203: Amy Remeikis on why Labor gets away with being worse than LNP

The Griff needs your help! Tom is joined by returning favourite Amy Remeikis, one of the few good journalists. First up a bit of Trump Epstein emails chat as a little treat (8:40). Then, the Coalition dumped net zero and all it does is provide cover for Labor to be 99% as bad (15:43). Next up a mixed-bag of the government being a bag of shit (45:10). Did you know the new CSIRO cuts are worse than Tony Abbott did? But it’s Labor so shh it’s fine, stop being hysterical. Meanwhile the government asked people in the states to stop needing the hospital so much please, and then bravely decided to be total cowards and abandon proper gambling advertising reform. But stick around to the end for some positive suggestions for the future!
