Former Prime Minister Tony Abbott talks with John Roskam about what makes the Australian way of life unique and valuable. Mr Abbott and John discuss the meaning of classic Australian characteristics like the fair go and mateship, and why they are still relevant today, before going on to talk about the interaction of economic and cultural issues affecting mainstream Australia play out in our politics, and what normal people can do to keep our country strong and prosperous.
