Episode 168: Landslide! Labor's Historic Victory and the Lessons for the Right

Van Badham and Ben Davison deliver an unmissable post-election
edition of The Week on Wednesday, unpacking one of the most
extraordinary federal election results in Australian history.
With Anthony Albanese securing Labor’s biggest win since
WWII, defeating not just Peter Dutton but also Greens leader Adam
Bandt, Van and Ben bring deep analysis, biting wit, and raw
insight into:


- What led to Labor’s sweeping mandate - Why the Coalition
suffered such a brutal collapse - The spectacular fall of the
Greens’ lower house ambitions - How union campaigning and party
discipline shaped the outcome - The Trump effect—and how
Australian voters emphatically rejected it - The nuclear fantasy
and the cost of out-of-touch ideology - Why the "parliament of
independents" myth finally imploded


Their signature candid discussion takes on democratic
responsibility political fantasy and hope hope hope, this
episode is a must-listen for anyone who cares about where
Australia is headed next.
