The Agenda: Data retention, co-payments and international affairs

The Australian Government is still having trouble getting the support it needs to ram through a range of changes that would significantly attack the core social elements of Australian society - education, universal health and welfare. But then there's been a few international distractions too.

Let's not forget what's playing out across the Middle East and in Ukraine.

It's going to be a massive show so join the team and vent your spleen.
