A decade ago, a Chinese company was given the green light to take control of the Darwin port, which is key Australian infrastructure. Now, the Albanese Government is scrambling to get it back in Australian hands, in a move that risks antagonising China, while being welcomed by the United States. Today, veteran defence analyst Alan Dupont, who until recently was the Defence and National Security Advocate for the Northern Territory Government, focused on defence investment in the NT. He explains why the deal was allowed in the first place and whether Chinese control really poses a risk to national security.Featured: Alan Dupont, chief executive of geopolitical risk consultancy The Cognoscenti Group 

Hello friends, This episode* of the Radio Reversal podcast brings together two interviews recorded over the last couple of months digging into the targeting of trans people, especially trans kids, and moral panics about gender and transition here and abroad. The first interview is between Anna and Necho Brocchi, proud trans woman and Service Delivery Coordinator at Open Doors Youth Service, and together they discuss the Crisafulli Government's ban on puberty blockers for trans youth here in so-called queensland, the Albanese Government's spurious “review” into gender affirming care, moral panics, and the ways the fight for trans justice is intrinsically tied to other struggles for justice, including prison and police abolition, housing and educational justice, and justice for First Nations People, here and everywhere. In the second interview, Han speaks with Wiradjuri transgender and non-binary academic, Professor Sandy O'Sullivan, about the recent wave of attacks on trans people, including the UK Supreme Court decision and how it threatens the rights and safety of trans people, and they unpack the colonial and white supremacist logics at play in anti-trans movements and the enforcement of the gender binary.This is part of our ongoing series on crisis, colonialism and collective futures - this time, we're considering how the confected “crisis” about trans people, their access to gender affirming care, their ability to make decisions about themselves/their identities/their lives, the spaces they have access to, which bathroom they use, and on and on, uses the tools and techniques of moral panic to justify harmful, discriminatory, oppressive, and violent government actions and policies. This confected “crisis” deflects scrutiny from the actual crises facing trans people, like structural discrimination, violence, over-policing, difficulties accessing gender-affirming care or indeed any medical care, issues relating to housing, employment, education, and more. As we see with other moral panics (e.g. around “youth crime” in so-called queensland), draconinan government actions are authorised by the discourse of “crisis”, and often, these actions are framed in terms of “safety”. Where we're writing from, so-called queensland, the recent ban on puberty blocking medication for trans youth has been positioned as a matter of safety, as taking precautions, for the kids' own protection. This is reprehensibly dishonest, given the overwhelming evidence that accessing gender affirming care (including puberty blockers) improves the safety and wellbeing of trans kids. But, for those who don't know any better, this might seem like a common sense precaution. In other cases, it is cis people whose safety is foregrounded; the recent Supreme Court ruling in the UK (amongst other things) excludes trans people - particularly trans women - from accessing certain single sex segregated spaces, in the name of “protecting” cis women.Also! This episode is coming out just in time to remind you that Saturday 19th July 2025 is Magandjin People's Pride's annual celebration of the queer community, in honour of the Stonewall riots. The event kicks off at 1pm at King George Squre for a rally and march, and then continues from 2pm at Jagera Hall, Musgrave Park. There will be markets, an art gallery, panel discussions, workshops, food and drinks, and live music and other performances. The event is all ages until 6pm, and then it's 18+. It's going to be a great day! Get your tickets here (free tickets available).That's your Saturday sorted; on Sunday, 20th July, kicking off at 1pm in King George Square is a rally organised by Justice for Palestine - Magandjin demanding sanctions on Israel, an end to Israeli occupation, apartheid, and genocide, and justice for Palestinians. And, the following weekend, on Sunday 27th July, at 1pm in King George Square there will be a rally in protest of the Crisafulli Government and the dangerous escalation in policing and incarceration of, and attacks on the rights of, young people, homeless people, and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples. Also, one last thing - we are in the process of leaving Substack. We'll be publishing our newsletter via Ghost, instead. We'll finish up our current series on Crisis, Disaster and Collective Futures here, but just wanted to let you know of the change. We're hoping it'll be a seamless transition, at least insofar as your podcasting app goes.

Yung Prodigy is calling on the NSW government to provide adjustments to phonecalls to improve availability, accessibility, and connection. In this interview, Maia discusses how important connection is for people who are incarcerated and their communities, how precious and expensive a 10 minute phone call can be, and why we need to act now. Please share the campaign, follow the Yung Prodigy instagram, and make sure to sign the petition. Bree Ahrens, Senior Climate Campaigner at Environment Centre Northern Territory (ECNT), spoke with us about how the Albanese Government's greenwashing of the Bonaparte Carbon Capture and Storage project conceals its potential future as one of the world's largest carbon dumping sites. ECNT is an environmental advocacy organisation fighting alongside local communities to win just solutions to the environmental issues facing the Northern Territory.  Alison, an organiser with the Newcastle-based group No Weapons for Genocide, caught up with Priya earlier this week to discuss the militarisation of Newcastle's economy and how this is being resisted by members of the local community. Despite the urgent need for action on a green energy transition, Newcastle, home to the world's largest coal port, has instead seen increasing government incentives redirecting workers and manufacturing capabilities from the extractive industries towards weapons manufacturing. Keep up to date with No Weapons for Genocide on Instagram. Noura Mansour from Democracy in Colour joins us to speak about the implications of the Albanese Government's appointment of Jillian Segal as Special Envoy to Combat Antisemitism. The establishment of the Special Envoy stands in stark contrast to the repeated failure by the Australian Government to address the genocide of First Nations people in so-called Australia, as well as escalating anti-Palestinian and Islamaphobic violence. Since her appointment, Jillian Segal has come under scrutiny due to her recommendation of wide-reaching draconian reforms impacting freedom of speech and political expression, as well as her husband's company's support of right wing group ‘Advance' in the form of a $50,000 donation. Events TOLL - STOP DRIVING GENOCIDE - SNAP RALLYAutonomous activists have organised a snap rally today at Toll Holdings' melbourne headquarters to demand that the company cuts ties with weapons suppliers and stops driving genocide in this colony and others.

New Australian gas projects will be forced to provide supply to the domestic market, with an east coast reservation scheme to be considered under a sweeping review into the regulations of the sector by the Albanese Government. Australia's defence spending is also under heavy scrutiny with the PM not budging. Shadow Defence Minister Angus Taylor told Peter Fegan on 4BC Breakfast, "We need a substantial reduction now and that's why it's incredibly important we see more East Coast gas being reserved for Australians." "Not in 20 years' time, it has to be done now." "That'll bring down electricity prices."See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
