About This Podcast

Australian politics is in crisis. Career politicians are selling us out with dodgy deals and ordinary people are being locked out of the political process. So when Kate Hulett was asked by members of her local community to run for Parliament, she couldn’t refuse. Join Independent Candidate for Fremantle Kate Hulett and her chief of staff Emma Pegrum as they delve into how our broken system works and keep track of all the twists and turns of the federal election campaign.
