À propos de cet audio
Broadcast from the garage, Jeremy Cordeaux delivers a wide-ranging and uncompromising critique of government waste, youth crime policy failures and climate hypocrisy. Jeremy highlights Victoria’s $35 million ankle-bracelet trial tracking just eight youth offenders, calling it an extraordinary example of political theatre over real action. He compares it to previous costly failures such as machete surrender schemes that delivered negligible results.
Jeremy also dismantles what he sees as climate double standards, pointing to politicians celebrating new wetlands while ignoring the fact wetlands are the world’s largest natural producers of methane. He questions the effectiveness of the under-16 social media ban, reveals a $730,000 travel bill for Australia’s Aboriginal envoy, and condemns the use of $1.5 million in taxpayer funds to promote changing the date of Australia Day after the Voice referendum result.
The episode closes with an emotional appeal to stop the planned helicopter shooting of brumbies in Kosciuszko National Park, with Jeremy urging listeners to contact MPs and animal welfare organisations before it’s too late.
