Ep. 297: Election Recap - NSW and TAS

Stephen is back with his old comrades from New South Wales and Tasmania to recap Labor’s wins - including the seats they didn’t see coming.

Todd Pinkerton returns to represent NSW. They cover the role of unions in framing the debate for workers’ rights, the stunning loss of Dickson, ‘campaign effect’, and what it all means for campaigners going forward.

Meanwhile Jack Milroy from Tasmania shares some intriguing intel about Liberal campaigners in the state - and just how soon they started fearing the worst.

Finally - what on earth is happening with Jacqui Lambie?

This week’s episode is packed with fascinating takeaways - don’t miss it.
