Podcast appearances and mentions of Gladys Berejiklian

We're all facing the financial pressures that come with the spiralling cost of everything, and on the weekend residents in one state will get the chance to punish politicians for it.  In New South Wales, Australia's longest-serving state government is asking voters for an unprecedented fourth term, and polls and history suggest it could be a tall order.  Today, the ABC's elections analyst, Antony Green, on why the NSW coalition government might not survive, as voters find it harder and harder to make ends meet. Featured:  Antony Green, ABC elections analyst

In this special episode of The People's Project with Stanford's Jay Bhattacharya and the Assistant Secretary General (ret.) of the United Nations Professor Ramesh Thakur: ANALYSING MELBOURNE'S LOCKDOWNS We step through the lockdowns and delve into the science behind the Great Barrington Declaration compared to 'The ScienceTM' practised by governments around the world (except Sweden). Jay has some choice words for the unique hell unleashed on Victorians and expertly describes what Public Health as a science actually is and does. Gladys Berejiklian and Leigh Sales make an appearance to lighten the mood amongst many minutes of Daniel Andrews press sermons...I mean conferences. Jay definitively explains whether we were 'following the science'. MAKING LOCKDOWNS REAL Watch the expert panel react to the most egregious of pandemic measures. What will they say when confronted with the absurdities of pandemic policy gone mad? ANTHROPOMORPHISE & EXAGGERATE We explore the anthropomorphisation of Sars-CoV-2 and the circumstances in which exaggeration would be justified in public health messaging. We embrace our own exaggeration with the fine work of Remix Matrix who reveals the true ambitions of NSW Premier Gladys Berejiklian. SHAME THE PEOPLE Jay takes us into the world of unvaccinated shaming. Should we divide and shame to engender compliance? What does he think of leaders like NT Chief Minister Michael Gunner, and panicked citizens who are boosted up the wazoo but still fear and catch Covid-19? We have a censored discussion about vaccination effectiveness and whether young people are safer with or without, and the concepts of 'pandemic of the vaccinated', 'pandemic of the boosted' and natural immunity vs vaccinated immunity. Finally, the retired Assistant Secretary General to the United Nations explains what we really should worry about when it comes to globalised, centralised power structures like the W.E.F., the U.N. and the W.H.O.

Teachers, childcare workers and coaches were among the men arrested in Australia's largest online child abuse probe.  Cashed up home buyers have been shelling out record sums for Sydney's best homes despite soaring interest rates pulling the market into a slump expected to last well into next year. Waiting lists for children needing surgery have blown out by as much as 52 per cent compared to last year. And Liberal MP Daryl Maguire was so in love with then-NSW premier Gladys Berejiklian that he claims he secretly gifted her a horse.

Lametta Fadlallah knew the criminal world was a dangerous, even deadly, place to be but she chose to live in it all her adult life, marrying two big-time gangsters and she was ultimately gunned down like so many Sydney underworld figures before her. Opposition politicians would be forced to disclose who they meet with under NSW government legislation to crack down on secret lobbying. A proposed deal between telecommunications giants TPG and Telstra would spell disaster for the bush, former premier Gladys Berejiklian says, as a decision on whether to approve the plan looms.

President of the NSW Young Liberals, Deyi Wu joined Salvatore Babones to discuss whether our younger generations have lost interest in politics, and if there is a bright future for either party. The recent federal election has shown us that independent grassroots campaigns threaten both major parties and could permanently change establishment politics. Issues, such as housing affordability, inflation, interest rates and climate are important to younger voters, but have the major parties lost touch with them? Can our politicians deliver good policy outcomes over the long term? After all, the future generations will have to live with the consequences of the actions (or inaction) of current governments at all levels. Deyi was elected president on the Young Liberals in March 2021 and is the first woman of Asian descent, and only the fifth ever woman to lead the organisation after Catherine Cusack, Marise Payne, Gladys Berejiklian and Natasha Maclaren-Jones. Deyi has written for The Financial Review and has a combined five years' experience working in federal and state politics.

Australia goes woke: The word that's now BANNED as part of new 'respect at work' training - despite it being 'as Aussie as you can get' NSW government ministers have slammed a 'woke' inclusion training seminar after they were told they should not refer to each other as 'mate'. Former premier Gladys Berejiklian and Ex-sex discrimination commissioner Pru Goward have come up with this brain wave. This is just my opinion.

Van Badham and Ben Davison breakdown the Morrison budget. This latest instalment of neo-liberal waste and vote buying STILL doesn't address the fundamental issues of insecure work and low wage growth that is dragging down the economy and people's household budgets. While the average worker has already gone backwards $1,300 over the last 18 months this budget locks in another $1,355 cut to the living standards of the average working Australian. Union member's have been campaigning on the need for more secure work and better pay, you can go to australianunions.org.au/wow to join them.  There's plenty of pork being slushed around with 123 of the 144 projects announced in the budget not stacking up to the standards set by Infrastructure Australia and $600M going into more gas projects. While the media focuses on the one off cash handouts and temporary petrol tax cut (that might be eaten up by oil price rises anyway) this waste and vote buying is being paid for with cuts to schools, universities, the arts, public sector workers, climate change prevention and $3 BILLION in cuts "decided but not announced". These sneaky cuts have been exposed at the same time that soon to be former Liberal Senator from NSW Concetta Fierravanti-Wells has opened the lid on Morrison's take over of the NSW Liberal Party saying "There is a putrid stench of corruption emanating from the New South Wales division of the Liberal Party", claiming Morrison is "a bully with no moral compass" and that party members "don't like Morrison and they don't trust him".  These claims follow on from Barnaby Joyce calling Morrison a "hypocrite and a liar", Gladys Berejiklian calling him a "horrible, horrible person" and another minister calling him "a fraud and a complete psycho". With the holes in his budget becoming apparent and his own leadership called into question it is clear why Morrison has canceled his appearance on ABC 7:30.... Van and Ben talk about how the COVID booster program is becoming another "strollout", with the time to reach 90% boosted getting pushed later and later into the year. This mismanagement is happening just as floods once again consume Lismore and northern NSW, making it harder to rollout boosters, and COVID cases rise, hospitalisations increase and more Australian's are tragically dying.

An explosive text message from Barnaby Joyce to former Liberal staffer Brittany Higgins was made public on Friday night, capping off a dire week for the Morrison government. The text, sent to a third party with the instruction to send it on to Ms Higgins, branded the Prime Minister a liar and a hypocrite. It came after the leaking of earlier texts, purportedly between an un-named cabinet minister and former NSW premier Gladys Berejiklian, referring to the Prime Minister as a “horrible, horrible person” and a “psycho”. The leaked messages, and the days of blame and counter-blame that followed, have been a distraction for the government, and threaten to dominate this week too, with Parliament resuming on Tuesday. Today on Please Explain, political correspondent James Massola joins Bianca Hall to talk about those text messages, and what we can expect this week.

This week Chole and Jus discuss the circus that is happening in federal politics at the moment with the text message scandals involving Gladys Berejiklian and an annonymous senior cabinet minister, who Bob Carr is now claiming is Peter Dutton. We go deep on some juicey theories about how that's playing out. We also discuss the address made by Queen Elizabeth in which she conveyed her wish that Camilla, Duchess of Cronwall, be referred to as the Queen Consort once Charles takes the throne. We've got some thoughts about it. As always, Legends, if you have a spare second and could leave us a cheeky rating on Spotify or a little review on Apple Podcasts we would be SO appreciative!

The relationship between the media and politicians has long been a complicated one. On one hand is the role of the media to hold truth to power. On the other is that that truth can often be uncomfortable for politicians. This complexity was on show this week when Network Ten political editor Peter Van Onselen exposed messages between former NSW premier Gladys Berejiklian and a federal cabinet minister describing the Prime Minister as a “horrible, horrible man” and a “psycho”. Today on Please Explain, former press gallery journalist, now national correspondent, Matthew Knott, joins Nathanael Cooper to look at the relationship between journalists and politicians.

The NSW Premier Gladys Berejiklian made the unsurprising announcement yesterday that the current lockdown would be extended for at least four more weeks, as daily case numbers of the Delta variant keep on rising.
