”The Week on Wednesday” with Van Badham & Ben Davison
News:Politics
Ben Davison is back on the Weekend Wrap following Van Badham's stint filling in last week and he takes a look at the South Australian election. Labor has a good chance of winning back government from Marshall's chaotic Liberals on March 19th with only four seats needing to swing Labor's way.
Western Australia is due to reopen on March 3rd with nearly 99% of people over the age of 12 vaccinated.
Ben dives into why Morrison launched, what Nikki Savva on Insiders called, a desperate attempt to tarnish the reputation of the opposition leader. How James Paterson was unable to provide any evidence for the accusations Morrison has thrown at Labor and what it all actually means for the state of Australian politics.
Plus Morrison's campaign circus is on the road again with the ringmaster himself very nearly welding his own face
Also Ben thanks our www.buymeacoffee.com/weekonwednesday supporters and reminds people to join their union, because Morrison isn't going to be lifting wages.
