OUT OF TOUCH & OVERPAID: Why adding more MPs will never fix Australia's representation crisis
from 4BC Mornings · host 4BC

They criticise MPs for relying on bloated public services and social media gimmicks like TikTok rather than utilising modern technology to serve regional communities and uphold constitutional principles genuinely.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
