Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Question Time | 30/07/2025
Q: How will the online safety minimum age of 16 affect families and what guidance comes from the e-safety commissioner?
The policy delays access to social media for under-16s with defined exemptions, aiming to prevent online harms while clarifying which services are captured by the law; penalties focus on platforms, not on parents or young users.
Question Time | 30/07/2025
Q: Hamas is a terrorist organization in exclusive control of the Gaza Strip. Will the Albanese government categorically rule out ever recognising a Palestinian state while Hamas is in control of Gaza?
We condemn Hamas and maintain that recognition discussions involve a broader international architecture. Long-term peace requires a reformed Palestinian Authority and a demilitarized Hamas, with security arrangements that address regional stability.
Question Time: 26th November 2025

Question Time: 26th November 2025
Q: What measures has the government delivered to ease household budgets while strengthening the economy?
The government lists a suite of cost-of-living relief measures, including energy bill relief, wage growth support, and investments in health, housing, and family benefits, arguing these have repaired the budget while delivering personal relief.
Question Time | 23/07/2025
