March 26 Indymedia -23RD Of March 2026
Join Alex Whisson for a brand new episode of the Indymedia Show!
On today’s show;
We discuss the South Australian elections, with the Labor Party (ALP) claiming somewhat of a victory receiving 32 seats (At time of publication). One Nation were also handed seats by the Liberal Party, with One Nation currently having 2 seats in the upper house. The main takeaway of this election is that this election needs to be paid attention to, as One Nation is not going away; with their ideas and funds helping them poll and possibly become the new major opposition at the next federal election.
We revisit the ongoing war in Iran, as the US & Israel Government continue their attacks.
Here in Australia, one of the run-on effects of this conflict is the rise in fuel prices. But as Alex puts it, this is a minor issue in the context of war and the loss of life.
