Why aren’t there more creative voices in politics and what will it take to shake up the status quo?
Episode 33 of the B-side is an Australian federal election edition featuring Jane Caro. An Award winning Australian columnist, author, novelist, broadcaster, documentary maker, feminist, social commentator, and advertising luminary who’s running for a seat in the senate representing the Reason party.
Jane pulls absolutely no punches as we discuss what the Reason party stands for, their principles on climate change, women's rights and equality for all, the erosion of public education, and the need for change towards a rational, honest, and transparent government.
I have interviewed people from all sides of the political spectrum, and what I do believe is that competition and creative friction creates better outcomes. I believe healthy competition is good for everyone.
Regardless of your political persuasion Jane Caro delivers a timely and powerful pitch for us to vote for healthy change.
So I hope to see you at the local polling booth this weekend and if you mention the B-side I’ll even shout you a democracy sausage.
