About this episode
In this episode of New Politics, we cover the massive Sydney Harbour Bridge protest where up to 300,000 Australians defied torrential rain to demand justice for Palestine, an end to Israel’s genocide in Gaza, and immediate recognition of a Palestinian state. We examine the political fallout for NSW Premier Chris Minns, growing dissent within Labor ranks, and the Albanese government’s slow, cautious response and vague promises of action. We also unpack a controversial proposal to ban under-16s from social media using invasive ID checks – appeasing Rupert Murdoch rather than protecting children – and explore the overlooked but significant Indigenous economic reforms announced at the Garma Festival. #AUSPOL #MarchForHumanity
