"The Week on Wednesday" with Van Badham & Ben Davison

Episode 40: Scovid lockdown continues in Victoria, Harvey Norman as the face of corporate greed, economic growth for the few not the many and good news about airships!


Listen Later

Van Badham & Ben Davison look at how Scott Morrison's failure to rollout the COVID vaccine has created the #Scovid hashtag, left 98% of people in supported disability care accomodation unvaccinated and brought Australians a world of confusion. Meanwhile, a Morrison minister called aged care workers "dregs", another minister told locked-down casual workers to "go to Centrelink" and the Deputy PM thinks "a week isn't a long time to go without pay". Gerry Harvey volunteers to be the face of corporate greed by demanding wage suppression while economic growth leads to massive profits (hey, everyone, JOIN YOUR UNION), Van has a problem with capitalism, Ben restrains himself on the subject of convicted wage thief, Justin Hemmes, the dog tries to get out of the garage on his own and the good news involves Iron Maiden and the return of THE AIRSHIP! What a bumper week! Share this programme!
