Then, as Anthony Albanese and Penny Wong jet all over the Pacific in the first days of governance, Director of the ANU Pacific Institute Dr George Carter helps analyse what the impact of the new federal government might be for Australia’s relationship with the Pacific.And Political editor at Crikey, Bernard Keane, breaks down Labor's position on press freedom and whether the new government will halt the prosecution of Bernard Collaery, resist Julian Assange's extradition to the US and legislate for stronger whistleblower protections.And to play us out, Baxter Dury had a chat with Dylan on his way to perform at RISING Festival.
