One Nation Is Reshaping Australian Politics - George Mamalis with Sam Bamford on Two Worlds Collide ... One Nation's recent growth has become a significant feature of Australian politics, particularly among voters dissatisfied with the traditional major parties. George Mamalis from The Adelaide Set discusses the rapidly changing political landscape in Australia, the upcoming elections in Victoria and New South Wales, the rise of One Nation, and what all of this could mean for the future of the country. Mamalis has spent years involved in Australian politics and independent media, and here he breaks down why more Australians are turning away from the traditional major parties, where the political momentum is shifting, and whether One Nation's surge represents a fundamental realignment of Australian politics. Mamalis and Bamford also discuss what could happen at the upcoming Victorian and NSW elections, the growing frustration with Labor and the Coalition, changing voter sentiment, and what Australia's political landscape could look like heading towards the next federal election.

Extreme ASIO Powers to Detain and Interrogate No Warrant No Lawyers - Senator David Shoeridge Shares His Outrage ... "Well, this is extraordinary isn't it ...We're seeing the Labor Party join up with the Coalition to guillotine through laws, ram them through this parliament without proper scrutiny on the last day of a sitting week when they're trying to hide it behind other business. Ram through laws that are going to supercharge the ability of ASIO to literally pluck you off the street, hold you in secret detention for 24 hours, interrogate you, force you to answer every question with a threat of going to jail if you don't. You don't even have to be suspected of anything. You just might be someone they want to talk to. Ram this legislation through, expand the reasons almost indefinitely for which ASIO can just pluck people off the street and they're ramming it through today with a guillotine to try and get their dirty business of granting ASIO whatever power it wants. They want their dirty business rammed through under a guillotine while no-one is watching ... And do you know what? ... You look around this chamber ... look at the speaking list ... there's no-one from Labor coming in to defend this ... it's indefensible. The speaking list has collapsed from Labor because they know coming in and talking to this is like sort of going for a bath in toxic waste with the public. And as for the Coalition, the ones who come out here and they'll trumpet about individual liberty and all this fighting against the state. The Coalition up to their neck, agreed to the guillotine, ramming it through. This is a demonstration exhibit A in what is wrong with this place. We're meant to be here protecting democracy ... we're meant to be here protecting freedoms ... we're meant to be here protecting the people on the street from, well, let's be frank, what Labor does in this place, and what the Coalition does in this place, and instead this place is doing a job, doing a job on the people of Australia and doing it in the dark ...
