In just over 2 weeks, around 18 million Australians are called upon to elect a new government. This also includes many members of the German-speaking community. On May 3, it will be decided whether the Labor Party, led by Prime Minister Antony Albanese, may remain in power for another 3 years, or whether the conservative Liberal/National Party, led by Peter Dutton, will take the reins. However, other parties and groups are also applying, such as GREENS, whose party leader is Adam Bandt, and numerous independent parties. In the media, we see and hear candidates every day who present themselves to voters in supermarkets, filling stations and at traffic junctions, shake hands and announce future political decisions. Many of these topics are also very important to our German-speaking community. Benjamin Kanthak and Wolfgang Müller analyse who is ahead halftime in the election campaign. - In etwas über 2 Wochen sind etwa 18 Millionen Australier aufgerufen, eine neue Regierung zu wählen. Dazu gehören auch viele Mitglieder der deutschsprachigen Community. Am 3.

Daneben bewerben sich aber noch andere Parteien und Gruppierungen, so die GREENS, deren Parteichef Adam Bandt ist und dazu noch zahlreiche Unabhängige. In den Medien sehen und hören wir täglich Kandidaten, die sich beim Wählervolk in Supermärkten, bei Tankstellen und an Verkehrskreuzungen vorstellen, Hände schütteln und künftige politische Entscheidungen verkünden. Viele dieser Themen sind auch unserer deutschsprachigen Community sehr wichtig. Benjamin Kanthak und Wolfgang Mueller analysieren, wer zur Halbzeit im Wahlkampf, die Nase vorn hat.

The Melbourne office of Friends of the Earth organized a Collins St protest outside a building that was the venue for a Federal Government inquiry into the Liberal National Party's idea that Australia should build and commission seven nuclear power stations throughout the nation. More than 30 people joined the noisy but peaceful demonstration. While passers-by were left with no doubt the nuclear power stations were too expensive, too dangerous and too slow, those attending had the chance to listen to several exciting, articulate and far-seeing speakers, including two people from the 2017 Nobel Peace Prize-winning International Campaign to Abolish Nuclear Weapons (ICAN), Associate Professor Tilman Ruff (pictured) and Dave Sweeney who is also with the Australian Conservation Foundation (ACF).

In 2018, Queensland decriminalised abortion up to 22 weeks' gestation without a doctor's permission. Now, the prospect of repealing those laws has become a major issue ahead of this weekend's state election.In South Australia too, the legality of abortion has been contested in the parliament. So, why is abortion up for debate? Today, Prudence Flowers from Flinders University on why what's happening here can be linked to the United States.  Dr Flowers explains that the overturning of Roe v Wade in the US has sent shock waves globally, influencing debates in Australia. She says the political landscape in Queensland is particularly volatile, with independent MP Robbie Katter pushing for a repeal of the decriminalisation law. She notes the significant anti-abortion sentiment within the Liberal National Party, which could impact the outcome if they win the election. In South Australia, recent legislative attempts to restrict abortion have narrowly failed, reflecting the contentious nature of the issue. Featured: Dr Prudence Flowers, senior lecturer at Flinders UniversityKey Topics:Queensland abortion lawsSouth Australia abortion debateRoe v WadeRobbie KatterLiberal National Party and abortionUS influence on Australian politicsReproductive rightsPolitical strategies in electionsAbortion laws

The Liberal National Party has been in the political wilderness in Queensland for most of the past three decades. But in a month's time that's likely to change, after an election campaign fought on youth crime. Yesterday, David Crisafulli announced courts would be able to access young people's full criminal histories, even after they have turned 18. It's a move legal experts say is cheap and won't change rates of offending. All this tough talk hides a more complicated story, in which a small number of highly publicised and shocking crimes obscure the fact that, by the police's own figures, youth offending is near record lows. Today, we hear from a survivor of Queensland's youth justice system about the real reasons young people offend, and what helped her escape the cycle.

In this episode, we delve into the ongoing fallout from the Robodebt Royal Commission report. Despite waning media interest, the problem persists, and the call for former Prime Minister Scott Morrison's resignation from Parliament grows louder. However, removing Morrison from politics won't solve everything; other ministers involved, such as Stuart Robert, Alan Tudge, and Christian Porter, might face repercussions as well. Moreover, there are concerns about other Coalition Cabinet ministers and certain members of the public service implicated in the scandal.Shifting our focus to international affairs, we discuss Prime Minister Anthony Albanese's attendance at the crucial NATO Summit in Lithuania. Against the backdrop of the war in Ukraine, both Ukraine and Sweden express their desire to join NATO. Although Australia is not a member, there have been talks of potential expansion into Asia – former Prime Minister Paul Keating has criticised this idea, warning against importing European militarism to the region.Turning closer to home, we examine the campaign of misinformation surrounding the federal government's Combating Misinformation and Disinformation Bill. Sky News and News Corporation have launched a campaign against it, employing misinformation to sway public opinion. Unsurprisingly, the Liberal Party aligns with this opposition, as their interests align with spreading falsehoods. The effectiveness of the Bill in combating misinformation through media platforms remains uncertain, but action is necessary.We also touch upon the upcoming byelection in Fadden and the lack of interest surrounding it. Unlike the Aston byelection, which garnered significant media attention, Fadden seems to have a subdued atmosphere. Both sides of politics manage expectations, with Peter Dutton suggesting the Liberal–National Party will lose ground while the Labor Party claims they have no chance of winning. This cautious positioning allows for easier explanations regardless of the outcome.And finally, Philip Lowe will not be reappointed as the Reserve Bank Governor. Michelle Bullock, currently the Deputy Governor of the Reserve Bank and with the Bank since 1984, will take up the position in September, becoming the first woman to hold the job.Join us as we explore these topics, unravel the complexities, and provide insights into the latest developments shaping Australia's political landscape.

He served as a senior Cabinet minister in the reformist government led by John Howard (1996 to 2005), one of the most successful governments in Australian parliamentary history. This included six years as Leader of the National Party and Deputy Prime Minister. The Liberal-National Party coalition, with Anderson integral in the process, tackled budget repair and promoted economic growth. Much-needed tax modernization and shrewd expenditure restraint were among the measures that helped deliver a string of ten out of twelve budget surpluses; unprecedented in the post-war era. They delivered an average annual GDP growth rate of 3.6%, restored Australia's AAA credit rating, and saw average household income double between 1994-95 and 2007-08.During their tenure over two million new jobs were created by small and large businesses, and the total number of apprentices in training increased by two-and-a-half-fold.Connect with John here: Website: YouTube: Get my new book 'The Path of an Eagle: How To Overcome & Lead After Being Knocked Down'.► AMAZON US► AMAZON AUS► AMAZON UKSupport The Show: https://paypal.me/thestorybox?country.x=AU&locale.x=en_AU I've teamed up with the amazing Company SLOUCH POTATO the most comfortable clothes you will ever wear and they are designed to be Pyjamas!

George Christensen, the maverick Liberal-National Party member from far north Queensland, dropped the pre-Easter bombshell that he is no longer heading for retirement but joining One Nation. Today, the Below the Line podcast team unpack what this means for the major parties' prospects in that seat and for the election result. Joining our host, award-winning broadcaster Jon Faine, is Anika Guaja who says the defection is a big win for One Nation, whose leader Pauline Hanson says they will field candidates in every Australian electorate. Meanwhile, Andrea Carson finds that One Nation is getting more public interactions (likes, shares and comments) on Facebook for political posts than any other party or politician including the Prime Minister Scott Morrison. Carson says this shows One Nation's mastery in reaching voters with their conversational style of messaging on social media. Facebook data aggregated using CrowdTangle shows Hanson's dominance on social media. Simon Jackman notes that even before the media publicly shamed Anthony Albanese with front page headlines for failing to recall the unemployment rate on the first day of campaigning, Labor's vote lead was already narrowing according to different pollsters. With early voting opening on May 9, ahead of polling day on May 21, our panel looks at what this means for media messaging, polls and political strategies. Added to this is the Australian Electoral Commissioner Tom Rogers' unprecedented announcement that COVID-19 affected voters will be able to lodge their vote by telephone on election day. This has never happened in a federal Australian election before. This raises all sorts of questions about how the vote will be recorded and counted, especially for those of you who choose to vote “below the line” on the Senate ballot. Listen to our expert panel's latest election insights, and thank you for tuning in and propelling Below the Line into the top 20 Australian news podcasts on Spotify this week after just two episodes.

The city of Brisbane has been grinding to a halt recently due to repeated disruptive protests from extreme climate change activists which involve blocking traffic, including super gluing themselves to the road.  The target of their protests as been against the Adani Carmichael coal mine in central Queensland. The Palaszczuk Labor Government reluctantly approved the mine after the Liberal National Party vote surged in the just-passed federal election after they ran on a pro-Adani platform. To look at the groups and people behind these climate protests in Brisbane we bring in our Antifa and far-left expert Associate Editor of the Unshackled Lucas Rosas.  He reveals that two groups are organizing these regular protests: Extinction Rebellion an extreme global climate doomsday group and Uni Students for Climate Justice, a front group for the Socialist Alternative. Socialist Alternative a revolutionary Trotskyist Marxist group attach themselves to popular progressive causes to engage in further membership recruitment. Socialist Alternative tried to do this with the recent Transparency 4 UQ protests at the University of Queensland against the Chinese Communist Party-backed Confucius Institute.  Because they weren't allowed to take over they labelled the protest racist and white nationalist, despite it being attended by Tibetans and Falun Gong members, plus their sometimes friends the Greens.
