Van Badham and Ben Davison start this special Thursday edition by tearing apart the ridiculous wage cutting ideologies of Jeff Kennet and exploring why a man who's devoted his life to cutting wages wanting to cut wages isn't news but it is bad for productivity, women and workers in general.  Which is why unions are campaigning for more flexibility to work from home and you can join them at australianunions.org.au/wow The Guardian has exposed that the NO campaign has been importing American MAGA campaign tactics for the referendum with evidence that two companies in particular are making more than a dollar from dividing Australia with racist, sexist and classist hatred. The Robodebt Royal Commission handed down its report six days ago so Van and Ben explore how the Liberals have responded by denying any wrong doing, making accusations against Labor and doing everything they can to undermine their own chances in the Fadden by-election this Saturday. Ben and Van also contrast the failures of Dutton as defence and home affairs minister against the work Albo is doing to defend democracy at the NATO summit while also improving our trade relations.  Van and Ben make clear that there is no "left wing" way to support Putin's gangster state and recall some of their own experiences in the nuclear armed kleptocracy.  The good news is that solar glass is a thing and windows that make electricity are on their way! As always we give shout outs to our Cadre and Extend the Reach supporters who get extra content from www.buymeacoffee.com/weekonwednesday and help us grow the audience. 

Last week the Royal Commission into the Robodebt scandal handed down its findings.  But not all of the report was made public. The scheme was labelled "cruel and crude"...so why the secrecy around who will be facing criminal charges?  In this episode of The Quicky we take a deeper look at the Robodebt Royal Commission, what it discovered and whether it goes any way to giving those who were impacted a sense of closure.

Former Prime Minister Scott Morrison's political future is in doubt with coalition figures refusing to back him, after the Robodebt Royal Commission's damning findings.

Former Prime Minister Scott Morrison's political future is in doubt with coalition figures refusing to back him, after the Robodebt Royal Commission's damning findings.

The political fallout from the release of the report of the Robodebt Royal Commission is continuing. 

A landmark report has been handed down by the Royal Commission on Robodebt, a scheme which saw welfare recipients charged over $1.7 billion in unlawful debts between 2015 and 2019. The head of the Robodebt Royal Commission has declared the scheme a “startling” failure and accused officials of “dishonesty and collusion” to hide its illegality. In today's deep dive, TDA journalist Tom Crowley will explain what this all means and what will happen next.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ben Davison spends some time looking at the Robodebt Royal Commission report, the scathing rebuke of the Morrison government, the potential crimes of former ministers and the culture of cooperation between corporate and billionaire owned media and the Coalition of treating people in need as less than human. Ben explains why Robodebt was bad policy, how we avoid such policies in the future and why unions calling for a more secure public sector workforce are part of the solution. Join your union at australianunions.org.au/wow The Health Services Union (HSU) in NSW has won a pay rise of up to 8.5% for its lowest paid members and Ben explains how this union has tackled the issue of low paid "essential workers" and won. The Commonwealth has also announced changes to teacher education over the next two years so Ben has a look at why that's happened, why we need to fix the Morrison era funding set ups and what impact it has on productivity, If you'd like to get the Week on Wednesday emailed to you everyweek and help us reach ever more people you can become a supporter at www.buymeacoffee.com/weekonwednesday
