Allegra Spender on why teal is the new black.

If you tuned in to watch this year’s federal election night coverage, even for a few moments, you would have seen a sea of teal. All the political commentators could talk about was the wave of centre right independents who had claimed previously safe Liberal party seats.

 

At the centre of these shifting political winds is Allegra Spender, former businesswoman and now the member for Wentworth covering some of Sydney’s wealthiest suburbs.

Allegra Spender comes from a high-profile family, with both her father and grandfather being MPs and her mother, the late fashion designer Carla Zampatti. 

In this conversation, Jamila Rizvi and Allegra Spender cover everything from tax cuts, climate change, women’s issues and Australia’s ever-changing political climate.
