Following Jordy’s trip to a housing conference in WA, the pod takes a look at the crisis in public housing, before exploring the Liberal party shenanigans and Hastie’s relationship to Hanson and the far right. Plus we’ve invited two bonafide Italian socialists to talk through the inspirational general strikes that have happened there over the last few weeks. Che bello! PS.
