Serious Danger 24: Vibe Check on the Boring Election & Abortion Rights
We get scared by Pauline Hanson’s g-g-g-g-ghost candidates (!!). Tom and Emerald do another vibe check on how #ausvotes is going (11:30), celebrate GREENSLAND and discuss what might happen in a hung parliament scenario. Then we turn to the godawful news about reproductive rights from the US (43:47) and look at the state of abortion rights in Australia and where the Greens stand. Finally, a call to action (1:05:31) - pre-poll voting starts TOMORROW!
