LISTEN: Pauline Hanson Surges, The CFMEU Scandal Deepens & Adelaide's Tree Massacre

Jeremy Cordeaux marks the anniversary of his arrival in Adelaide and reflects on a lifetime in broadcasting before launching into a fiery critique of the Albanese Government, union influence, public sector growth and economic management. Jeremy examines the collapse in auction clearance rates, Pauline Hanson’s rising political fortunes, the CFMEU controversy, and Labor’s decision to abolish the Australian Building and Construction Commission. He also tackles the Adelaide Parklands tree removal controversy, the ongoing Brumby cull in New South Wales, and what he sees as double standards in animal welfare policy. Along the way, he shares personal reflections, historical observations and his trademark commentary on politics, culture and current affairs.
