Today's guest is journalist, academic, novelist, and poet, Jake Lynch. In a varied career, Jake has been Sydney Correspondent for The Independent, Political Correspondent for Sky News, and BBC World Television newsreader. He is also a leading advocate for Peace Journalism, recently winning the Luxembourg Peace Prize. His two novels are both whodunnits: Blood on the Stone, set in 17th century Oxford, and Mind Over Murder (co-authored with wife Annabel McGoldrick), a detective story set in contemporary Oxford. Here to tell us about the many strands of his career, and how he splits his time between Oxford and Sydney, Jake certainly has some compelling points to make.  https://www.jakelynch.co.uk

One day out from the Australian Election and Labor seems to have it in the bag. If the polling stacks up, Anthony Albanese will remain Prime Minister and Peter Dutton will once again be relegated to opposition. There's been criticism across the ditch that the coalition's campaign has been full of U-turns and back tracks – undermining their credibility. Australian Political Commentator Bruce Hawker told Mike Hosking Dutton presented a risky persona, with many of his policies and comments quite Trumpish in their attitude. He says people likely started to think they'd prefer having the devil they know. The state of Dutton's policies were also a concern, Hawker says, with many feeling underdone.
