Van Badham and Ben Davison talk about election night 2022, the first openly left/centre left LIVE Election night broadcast and the current state of play for the Australian parliament.
With Albo's Labor Party winning a majority but the most independant MPs elected into parliament since before WWII Van and Ben look at what has happened from a macro perspective and how this election signals that Australia is still a Menzian/Hawke nation. A concept that Morrison's "Liberals" seem to have forgotten.
Van and Ben explore what that concept means, how it might influence an Albanese Labor government, how it played out in the campaign and what might happen next.
