Political reporter for The Guardian and sexual assault survivor Amy Remeikis joins me for International Women's Day to give an insider's view on the vile situation for women in politics - and beyond - in this country.

Amy reveals why the usual political deflection tactics didn't work, why it's perfect we're all angry and the shocking statistics that put Australia at the BOTTOM of all the latest global gender gap indexes.
