Seriously Social

How the virus made politics mutate


Listen Later

The Covid-19 pandemic transformed Australian society and the world seemingly overnight. But suddenly politics looks very different too.
The virus effectively wiped the political slate and took all kinds of pressing issues off the agenda. At the same, time major Government messages displayed a kind of bipartisanship perhaps reserved only for times of true crisis.
On this episode of Seriously Social renowned political journalist and academic Michelle Grattan shares how the virus has changed Australian politics and industrial relations and how it might change the landscape into the future.
