In our first podcast of 2018 we discuss the resignation of Leader of the Opposition Bill English, his history and who the contenders are for his job. We look at firebrand Foreign Affairs Minister Julie Bishop’s first visit from across the ditch and what it means for joint cooperation going forward. On monday the Govt released it’s housing report so we hammer out the issues it faces and after 5 years as Political Editor, Corin leaves us this week so we can’t let that pass without telling a few stories, having a few laughs , and eating a few scones.
