Description
Hosted by Guardian Australia’s editor, Lenore Taylor, and social researcher and author Rebecca Huntley, Common Ground aims to go beyond filter bubbles to understand why voters are disillusioned with the political system, and how they have formed their political views. We talk to four Australians each week who represent a variety of political views from Cory Bernardi’s Australian Conservatives, to the Greens and the two major parties.
