Episode Why we outed the PM's Helen Haines dirt sheet and the inside story
The Frontbench exposes what's really happening behind closed doors at Parliament House. Join Political Editor Peter van Onselen and Reporter Nicholas Comino each Tuesday as they tell you who's winning, who's losing, the drama behind the scenes and how the big decisions in Canberra affect you. In this episode, Peter and Nicholas open by addressing the tragic attack on Independent MP Helen Haines in regional Victoria. The conversation then pivots to the controversial "dirt sheet" recently circulated about Haines by the Prime Minister's Office, exploring the political motivations behind it and Anthony Albanese's refusal to apologise or admit fault. The pair also discuss the broader decline of the "social contract" in modern politics, the pitfalls of politicians attempting viral social media trends, and analyse the upcoming Victorian state election.
