Ben Davison looks at the established research which shows the NO campaign is leveraging misinformation and a global network of disinformation campaigners. In a shock admission Ben admits that he agrees with Phil Coorey and Chris Kenny that the No campaign has become a grab bag of grievances.
The disability royal commission report has been handed down with 222 recommendations from over 10,000 submissions. Ben looks at how it intersects with the current NDIS review and why reform will take time but is urgently needed.
Mike Pezzullo has stood aside while there is an investigation into his conduct by the public service commissioner. Ben discusses why there needs to be an investigation, who this man is and what influence he has been wielding over our lives.
Ben also give a shout out to the leader of the Australian Union movement, Sally McManus, for her being named the 4th most powerful person in Australia. You can join your union at australianunions.org.au/wow
