The hosts debate the merits of shortening the pre-polling period, with Hong Kong Jack lamenting the decline of traditional Saturday voting.(00:06:06) Betting Blunders & Historic Results Labor's remarkable journey from $15 outsiders to $1.07 unbackable favourites to form government is reviewed. The episode highlights key historical markers:Anthony Albanese: The first Prime Minister re-elected since 2004.A significant Labor victory, with Albanese leading the first government in Australian political history to increase its majority in a second term.(00:09:17) Seat Swings, Mea Culpas & The Greens' Tumble The hosts reflect on their pre-election predictions against the reality of significant swings to Labor (e.g., a 10% swing in Bennelong). Labor is projected to win around 90 seats.The Greens: A tough election, with leader Adam Bandt likely to lose his seat in Melbourne. Zoe Daniel (Teal) is also in a precarious position in Goldstein. The Greens may lose Ryan back to the Liberals and potentially face no representation in the House of Representatives.(00:13:38) A UK Perspective & Labor's Resurgence Hong Kong Jack shares insights from the UK, where observers noted Labor's landslide and the "leaderless, rudderless, pointless" state of the Coalition. This challenges the narrative that incumbents always lose, citing recent Canadian and Australian results.(00:16:27) Liberal Campaign Catastrophe: A "Don't Do This" Case Study A deep dive into the Liberal Party's "dreadful campaign," marked by:The ill-conceived work-from-home policy, poorly communicated by Senator Jane Hume and lacking consultation.A string of policy backflips and poorly planned announcements (e.g., fuel excise cut, Melbourne airport rail funding announced at a winery).Peter Dutton has accepted responsibility for the campaign's failures.(00:22:46) Trump's Take & The Muted MAGA Effect Donald Trump's reaction to the Australian election (congratulating "Albert" while feigning ignorance of Dutton) is discussed. The hosts agree that MAGA influence was minimal, with Albanese's message of "kindness is not weakness" resonating more strongly.(00:25:13) The Liberal Party's Existential Crossroads A critical analysis of the Liberal Party's future, having lost traditional heartland seats and failed to broaden its appeal beyond an aging demographic.The danger of vacating the political centre and the flawed strategy of chasing a new "working-class" constituency.Hong Kong Jack draws parallels to Labor's wilderness years (1977, 1996), emphasizing the need for honest self-reflection for any chance of recovery.Labor's structural advantages: benefiting from Green preferences and a more unified progressive base compared to a fragmented right-wing, further diluted by entities like Clive Palmer's party.(00:39:58) Senate Snapshot: Stability Prevails An overview of the projected Senate makeup across the states:NSW & VIC: Likely Labor 3, Liberals 2, Greens 1.QLD: Labor 2, Libs 2, Greens 1, with One Nation's Malcolm Roberts likely re-elected.TAS: Jacqui Lambie expected to return.ACT: Independent David Pocock secures his quota alongside a Labor senator.Overall, the Senate composition is unlikely to see dramatic changes. David Pocock is commended for his diligent work.(00:42:25) Who Will Lead the Liberals? A Party in Search of Direction Speculation on the future leadership of the Liberal Party, with few obvious candidates emerging from a depleted frontbench. Dan Tehan is mentioned as a possible moderate caretaker, though the path back to government looks long and arduous.(00:45:58) Albanese: The New "Labor God" & Chalmers' Contribution Anthony Albanese is lauded for his historic achievement, with Jim Chalmers highlighted as a key performer and media operator for Labor, despite Hong Kong Jack's gentle ribbing about his lengthy essays.(00:48:56) Canadian Politics Upended: Liberals' Shock Comeback A look at the Canadian election, where the Liberals achieved a stunning turnaround, with Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre facing a potential seat loss. Donald Trump's inflammatory rhetoric towards Canada is seen as a contributing factor to this shift.(00:52:12) Vatican Watch: Speculating on the Next Pope With Pope Francis's papacy in its later stages, the hosts discuss potential successors. Italian cardinals like Pietro Parolin are frontrunners, but names from Africa and the Philippines also surface. Hong Kong Jack references Morris West's The Shoes of the Fisherman for insights into papal conclaves.(00:55:52) Sir Tony Blair on Net Zero & The Reality of Fossil Fuels Former UK PM Sir Tony Blair's call for a rethink of Net Zero policies due to cost implications is examined. Global fossil fuel consumption continues to rise (gas +2.7%, coal +1%, oil +0.8%), underscoring the challenge of the energy transition.(01:00:24) Trump's First 100 Days (Again): Low Approval, Tariff Troubles & Papal Attire Donald Trump's second term hits the 100-day mark with historically low approval ratings (39%). The economic impact of his tariffs is starting to bite (LA port imports down one-third, US economy shrinking). Adding to the unusual, Trump has been pictured in papal robes on the White House website, even expressing a desire to be Pope.(01:05:49) UK Political Fragmentation: Reform's Rise, Tories' Fall The UK's political landscape remains volatile. Recent local and by-election results project a national vote share that would see the Reform party at 30% and the Conservatives decimated to around 15% and potentially only five seats.(01:08:44) Germany Considers Banning Far-Right AFD Germany is contemplating a ban on the far-right AFD party, the largest single party in the Bundestag. The hosts discuss the problematic nature of banning popular political movements, arguing it often backfires.(01:11:21) Jay Rayner on Media: Mainstream vs. Social Food critic Jay Rayner's comments on the state of media are discussed, questioning the perceived universal informedness of mainstream journalists and acknowledging that both traditional and social media produce "rubbish."(01:15:29) AFL Round-Up: Carlton's Collapse, Collingwood-Geelong ClassicCarlton suffers a 10-goal drubbing by Adelaide, with Jack Silvani's absence keenly felt.Collingwood vs. Geelong is hailed as a "cracker" game, showcasing great skill and sportsmanship.Concerns are raised about key AFL games not being available on free-to-air television, potentially alienating younger fans.(01:22:18) Cricket News: Indian Prodigy & Vale "The Buzz" A 17-year-old Indian cricketer makes waves in the IPL with a century.

David Pocock, the former rugby star turned independent senator, embraces the label of “weirdo” for his belief that sports and politics should go hand in hand. The former rugby star isn’t afraid to challenge the status quo, famously refused to marry until same-sex couples had the same rights and being arrested for climate protests. In this chat with Antoinette Lattouf, David explains why rugby must lead on climate action, given its deep ties to Pacific Island nations with communities already bearing the brunt of climate change.

On 14th March 2025 this segment of Rights, Rorts and Rants went to air. Mike Holland briefly covered three high profile whistleblowers who have been generally subjected to detrimental treatment, financial ruin, jail time and psychological suffering at the hands of their employers and the media. The ill-treatment directed at employees who bring cases involving wrongdoing into public light has led Senators Jacqui Lambie and David Pocock to address this by sponsoring a Senate bill on 11 February 2025 namely the "Whistleblower Protection Authority Bill 2025 (No. 2)". Dr Helen Haines MP and Andrew Wilkie MP also introduced the bill which will, if passed, establish an independent body with the power to enforce whistleblower protections and safeguard whistleblowers, among other things. The bill has been referred to a committee with reporting back on 29 August 2025.The radio show was first broadcast on Radio Blue Mountains 89.1 FM on 14 March 2025 by Blue Mountains Unions & Community and presented by Fran Dyson.

They're hard to miss: the number of gambling ads flooding our screens and devices everyday. They've become such an inescapable part of sport that a parliamentary inquiry was formed, which looked at the impacts the ads have on the community.  In the final months of her life, Labor MP Peta Murphy was the chair of that inquiry – and after hearing from the gambling industry, dependent sporting codes and families impacted by gambling addiction – her position was unequivocal: all ads for online gambling should be banned. It's been more than 14 months since the government received her recommendations and yet the proliferation of gambling ads has continued unabated. Now, the government could be set to water down a ban, in favour of caps on the number of ads per hour. Today, Independent Senator David Pocock on the stranglehold the gambling industry has on Australian sport and politics and what it would take to change that. Socials: Stay in touch with us on Twitter and Instagram Guest: Independent Senator David Pocock

Yesterday, Nine Newspapers reported the government was about to walk away from a near-total ban on gambling ads across the country, to instead focus on banning gambling ads from social media and other digital platforms. The new plan for TV would reportedly be caps on the number of gambling ads per hour and banning them an hour before and after live sport.  The reported proposal – which goes against the plan originally designed and championed by Labor's Peta Murphy, who died last year – has prompted outrage on both sides of the debate.  Anti-gambling advocates say the new proposal doesn't go nearly far enough, while the big players in this conversation, sporting bodies, say banning gambling ads threatens revenue that funds grassroots and free-to-air sport. Media companies, including NewsCorp and Nine, argue such a ban threatens jobs.  David Pocock is in a unique position to deeply understand this issue—he's both a former Rugby Union star and an independent senator for the ACT. He joined Bension Siebert to explain why the news has made him angry and what he thinks the government should do about gambling ads going forward.  This episode mentions suicide.

David Pocock , Systemic Family Psychotherapist, Psychoanalytic Psychotherapist, author and lecturer, joins us to discuss his influential paper, "A Philosophy of Practice for Systemic Psychotherapy: The Case for Critical Realism." (2015) In this session, we revisit the paper almost ten years after its initial publication to examine its enduring themes and its significant contribution to the field of family therapy. David explains what critical realism is and how it manifests in therapeutic practice, highlighting its role in bridging the gap between structuralism and post-structuralism and combines moderate realism with moderate constructionism.  David provides an accessible and insightful overview of the paper, demonstrating how critical realism supports a coherent, accountable, and robust understanding of therapeutic practice. Through this discussion, we gain a deeper appreciation for the practical applications of critical realism in systemic psychotherapy, and how it enhances the therapist's ability to navigate complex relational dynamics within diverse family systems. This review underscores the continued relevance and value of critical realism as a philosophical foundation for effective and ethical therapeutic practice.Reference:Pocock, D. (2015). A philosophy of practice for systemic psychotherapy: The case for critical realism. Journal of Family Therapy, 37(2), 167-183.

Letitions are a variation of the commonly used and understood petitions but are immensely more powerful. Geelong's Robert Patterson is the man behind letition.org and this powerful process is endorsed by some powerful people, including the Australian Captial Territory Senator, David Pocock. Many in the Geelong community had embraced the idea of the letition as is illustrated in one of the city's newspapers. The letition.org website says: "Is it a system? Yes. Is it a tool? Yes. Is it available to all? Yes None of that's novel – so why should you sign up?The Letition system is a movement. It embodies our united stand for the environment, amplifying our concerns in a chorus that cannot be ignored. A clarion call from the larger community. Letitions are the modern Open Letter: A collective call to action with the urgency of a personal message. Each Letition serves as a direct line to our elected representatives in Canberra, each one reflecting the collective will of the voters right from their local communities, their constituencies - the people they ultimately answer to.  Every month, they receive several Letitions delivering a unified message on different aspects of climate concerns, demanding attention and action.Every Letition is counted, and the results are published. The aggregated voices are not only heard by you, the community, they echo through the halls of Parliament, reaching every MP and their staff. This transparency fosters accountability and personal responsibility among our leaders.It was never going to be easy to win the battle with evermore fossil fuel developments, but we must keep building the momentum and pressure. Letitions are effective because they are local, specific to each politician and that politician's voter base, but also wide-reaching – speaking to issues that impact across all constituencies. Every month, we must persist in sending one or two Letitions to their local Member and their Senators. We are one voice, powerful together. The movement is gaining momentum. As more and more people consistently send Letitions every month, the movement, and its voice and impact will grow even more. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/robert-mclean/message

David Pocock admits that sometimes he's had to vote for policy he doesn't fully agree with. The first-term senator came into parliament with the best intentions to avert the climate crisis, but has sometimes found himself having to work to make legislation he thinks is bad, a little bit better. Now, he's trying to put forward a solution he does actually believe in: a private senator's bill that would force politicians to consider the impact on the health and wellbeing of future generations when they make decisions on climate. Today, independent senator David Pocock on his new bill and whether he's always lived up to his own duty of care for future generations.

Did you ever think we would go backwards in gender parity within government cabinets around the world? Neither did we. It's happening in countries like Hungary, where they now have an all-male cabinet. On a more positive note, the Matildas v Canada Women's World Cup match became Channel 7's most watched program of the year. We think Brazilian soccer icon Marta's brilliant press conference speech sums up the rise in women's football quite nicely: “20 years ago, in 2003, nobody knew Marta – it was my first World Cup. Twenty years later we have become the reference for women all over the world.” We take a look at all this, plus the cost of living and how it's affecting women more acutely in climate disaster-affected areas, as well as Senator David Pocock's new ‘duty of care' climate bill. Stories discussed this week include:The countries that still have all-male cabinetsWomen more likely to be multiple job holders than menThe ‘duty of care' bill is a chance for the government to show it cares about young people‘Incredibly hard': Climate disasters amid a cost-of-living crisis impacting women most acutely‘I didn't have a female idol, you guys didn't show female games': Marta on the persistence from players that progressed women's footballMatildas win was Seven's most watched program of the yearThe Crux is produced by Agenda Media, the 100% women founded and owned media business, publishing the daily news publication Women's Agenda.

This week, when independent senator David Pocock stood up at Parliament House and called on the Australian government to consider the impact of climate change on young people, he did so alongside teenager Anjali Sharma. Laura Murphy-Oates speaks to the 19-year-old climate advocate about why politicians need to consider the health and wellbeing of future generations when making decisions

At Full Story's first live conversation, Laura Murphy-Oates speaks to climate and environment editor Adam Morton, Gunditjmara man Dr Denis Rose who has a long history in Aboriginal land and cultural heritage management, ACT senator David Pocock, and lifelong climate and environment advocate Felicity Wade.

He was the captain of the Wallabies, the only Australian player to be included in World Rugby's team of the decade, but - wildly – retired at the height of his career to devote his life to climate activist projects here in Australia and in Africa. I recorded this interview shortly after David quit rugby and several months before he decided to run as an independent Senator in the Australian Parliament. He won the ticket and has gone on to become an extremely powerful and highly regarded political voice in this country and a bit of a figure of intrigue…how did such an introverted, considered WEAPON OF A FOOTBALL player wind up here? It seemingly makes no sense. This is why I figured many of you would love to listen to this chat (perhaps for a second time) in which he wrestles with how he can best make an impact.

The wages and workplaces of Australians could be about to change. The government's new industrial relations packages promises to make pay more transparent and strengthen the hand of workers in negotiations. But whether this passes, comes down to the decision of one man: David Pocock. His vote has become the most valuable commodity in Canberra.

Climate was the defining issue of this year's elections in Australia, with independent and green candidates promising climate action sweeping into power. Now the country has a new climate law, enshrining a 43% cut in emissions by 2030. But does it live up to what the science demands? Joining Zero this week are two politicians that were instrumental to passing the bill: Adam Bandt, leader of the Australian Greens, and David Pocock, whose journey from Australia's rugby captain to politics has made him a deciding vote in the country's senate.  Read a full transcript of this episode, here.

15/06/2022. The latest news from Australia, Ukraine and from around the world. The minimum wage will increase by 5.2 per cent after a decision by the Fair Work Commission. Ukraine's President Volodomyr Zelenskyy says there is procrastination when it comes to supplying his nation with the weapons it needs to fight Russia. This comes as UNICEF's director says two-thirds of Ukraine's children have been displaced, and as US President Joe Biden works to release 20 million tonnes of grain from Ukraine and deliver it to the world. Australia's medicines regulator has approved Novavax for use as a third COVID-19 shot for those aged 18 and above.

The big story of this election is the collapse of the Coalition vote, as voters around the country backed parties and candidates with strong climate and integrity policies. What happened at the election and what comes next in the Senate? Join the ACT Independent Senate candidate David Pocock, who looks set to secure the second Senate seat in the ACT. If he is successful, it would be the first time since the introduction of proportional representation in 1949 that one of the major parties is entirely locked out of a jurisdiction.This was recorded on 25th May 2022 and things may have changed since recording.The Australia Institute // @theausinstituteHost: Ebony Bennett, Deputy Director, the Australia Institute // @ebony_bennettGuests:David Pocock, ACT Independent Senate candidate // @PocockDavidBen Oquist, Executive Director, the Australia Institute // @BenOquistProducer: Jennifer Macey // @jennifermaceyTheme Music: Pulse and Thrum; additional music by Blue Dot Sessions

The 2022 federal election was transformative. The Coalition's vote collapsed across the country. There is a new Labor government, led by Prime Minister Anthony Albanese, that will likely gain a majority in its own right, but that will govern with a hugely expanded crossbench. One of the biggest stories of the night was the shift away from the major parties and the huge shift towards the Greens and community Independents running on platforms of climate action, restoring integrity to Parliament and gender equality. Lastly, there will be a climate majority in the Senate, with Labor, 12 Greens Senators and Independent ACT Senate candidate David Pocock. To unpack those results, we spoke to Ben Oquist, Executive Director of the Australia Institute. This was recorded on Tuesday 24th May 2022 and things may have changed since recording.The Australia Institute // @theausinstituteHost: Ebony Bennett, Deputy Director, the Australia Institute // @ebony_bennettGuests:Ben Oquist, Executive Director, the Australia Institute // @BenOquistProducer: Jennifer Macey // @jennifermaceyEdited by: Louise OsbourneTheme Music: Pulse and Thrum; additional music by Blue Dot Sessions

The Australian Electoral Commission has found advertising depicting Independent ACT senate candidate David Pocock and Independent Member for Warringah Zali Steggall as 'closet Greens' breached the Electoral Act and would likely mislead or deceive voters. The advertising campaign had been funded by the right-wing Advance Australia group which has now agreed to stop showing the ads in order to avoid legal action. Guest: David Shoebridge, New South Wales Greens lead Senate candidate

David Pocock had a remarkable sporting career, playing professional rugby for Australia at the tender age of 17, he ended up captaining the Wallabies and being the only Australian player included in World Rugby's 'Team of the Decade'. Yet his story is every bit as fascinating off the field as on, be it his family's traumatic flight from Zimbabwe, his social activism or his run for the Senate.

This is where things get a bit fun! And, actually, this episode explains WHY i decided to do this election series. So. The policy and ideas gridlock is real. And there's a reason for it. But there's also a solution and policy think tank The Grattan Institute has mapped it out with research. It's to vote in a number of climate-focused MPs who do not belong to either of the major parties. As it happens, there are about 30 running across Australia this election, and if three of them (give or take) get voted in May 21, then they will hold the balance of power. And thusly Australia has the best chance of moving forward on those 5 Pillars of Care I keep banging on about: climate policy; a federal corruption body; women's equality; an indigenous voice to parliament; and addressing the growing divide between the haves and have nots. It might sound wonky and complex, but the Institute's Danielle and I break the whole thing down into simple - and super hopeful - terms.That Gridlock report we talk about?

Seb and Jonno discuss former Wallabies captain David Pocock's move into politics and whether or not more retired athletes should look to enter politics post career.

In every election since 1975 voters in the ACT have elected one Labor and one Liberal Senator but former Wallabies captain David Pocock is throwing a spanner in the works, running as an independent and gaining significant support. This week the Australian Electoral Commission cleared him to register his name as a political party, allowing his name to be listed above the line on the ACT senate ballot, the most popular way to vote. Guest: David Pocock, Independent ACT Senate Candidate

Another hopeful Federal Independent joins the Betoota Advocate this week, as we zone in one one of the more exciting types of political campaign: The celebrity candidate. Former Wallabies flanker David Pocock joins Clancy and Errol to discuss his surprising bid to become one of the two Federal Senators from the ACT. The 33-year-old former Rugby Union star talks about his hyper-local campaign to fight for a better Canberra, and his interesting focus on sustainable agriculture.
