About this episode
Victorian Premier Ben Carroll has announced plans to use low-level prisoners for road maintenance work as part of a $352 million road safety initiative, promising to bring road maintenance back in-house under government control. The announcement comes as Labor campaigns in western Victoria, while One Nation leader Pauline Hanson tours Gippsland promoting coal-fired power stations beyond 2035 and gas drilling in Gippsland and the Otways Basin. Labor has also pledged to review the compensation scheme to make it easier for drivers to claim for pothole damage to their vehicles.
