One Nation is surging. Why aren't the Greens?
Politics Now
PK is still making her way through a rewatch of The West Wing — and she and Fran have some big thoughts about the idealistic vision of politics the series presents. But after some very important TV chat, they get stuck into some brilliant listener questions, including: Does the parliamentary attendance record of politicians matter? Why haven't the Greens capitalised on the populist wave like One Nation has? And how do the texting arrangements between political journalists and politicians actually work? Patricia Karvelas and Fran Kelly answer your clever queries on this Question Time edition of The Party Room. Listen to Thursday's The Party Room ep here Got a burning question? Send a short voice recording to PK and Fran for Question Time at thepartyroom@abc.net.au
