”The Week on Wednesday” with Van Badham & Ben Davison
News:Politics
Ben Davison dives into how Gladys failed in her duty to report possible corrupt conduct while he slams the rose coloured glasses some of the Liberal Party and Sydney's elites have decided to view her through.
Dom, iCare, Perrottet seems likely to replace Gladys now that Constance has announced he wants to go federal but is the Trump supporting, anti-aboriginal flag, home bulldozing hard right Catholic who wanted to let COVID rip the right man for the job? John Howard thinks so. So probably not.
COVID vaccine targets continue to be hit as Victoria announces essential workers will need to be vaccinated to keep their essential worker status and we are all reminded that if 20% of Australians are not vaccinated thats around 5 million people still at risk.
Morrison announced a plan to get Australians home for Christmas 2021. Which differs from his plan to get Australians home for Christmas 2020 in that it has some hope of actually happening.
