John Ruddick - Can Libertarians and National Conservatives Be Friends?
Interview with Hon John Ruddick MLC has been a Libertarian member of the New South Wales Legislative Council since 20 April 2023. He is the first member of that party to be elected to the NSW Parliament.

- How The Libertarian Party plans to influence the Liberal Party of Australia in a similar way that the Greens influence the Labor Party
- Whether open primaries for selection of leaders and representatives can work in Australia
- Where the libertarians differ and agree with the Trump programme on trade, immigration and foreign policy
- Whether libertarianism is in conflict with the nation-state
