Dunn Street founder Stephen Donnelly got on the phone with the newly elected Federal Member for Lilley - Anika Wells for some speech prep.

As Anika prepares to deliver her first speech in parliament on Monday, she discussed the topics, themes and challenges that come with drafting this inaugural speech.

Anika gave us the inside word on O-Week in Canberra, she spoke of the weight on millennial Labor politicians and being entrusted with the policy responsibilities for future generations; what impact the climate debate had on Queensland in the federal election campaign; what plot points in her life have shaped her politics; and they brush up on the candidates in the Democratic primaries.
