Episode 5: Market Farces

The right wing of Australian politics is becoming increasingly confused about what they are for and what they want. While they talk about the importance of letting individuals make their own decisions, they rage against the idea that adults should be able to decide who they want to marry. This week Richard Denniss looks at the opportunities arising from this confusion. Journalist Nina Funnell and ASU secretary Natalie Lang join to discuss the government's defunding of sexual assault support services, and what this means for the 60,000 people who use the 1800 RESPECT service annually.
