Bendigo Writers Festival: The Culture of Politics with Frank Bongiorno

Just when you think we've reached peak-outrage about people in power, another scandal oozes out of parliament. The parade of power-seekers are the “dreamers and schemers” whose desires and behaviour has shaped Australian democracy, as well as our attitudes towards politics. Kirstin Ferguson leads the discussion about what drives our political class, whether integrity can survive, and why, beneath all the rules and regulations, there is such a cesspit of bad behaviour.
