Q+A: Aug 21

Q+A is live from Melbourne as art meets politics, with a special live performance from singer-songwriter Tina Arena.

For many creatives, the personal is very much political… so how do artists use their platforms to make change? And what more could the government do to ensure gig workers are supported?

Job insecurity is a reality for many Australians, but do the proposed IR reforms go far enough? What will it mean for regional businesses who rely on seasonal workers?

Meanwhile, there’s no solution in sight to the housing stalemate. What will Labor do to get its legislation over the line?

Panellists:

Minister for the Arts, Employment & Workplace Relations Tony Burke,
Nationals Member for Nicholls Sam Birrell,
Independent Member for Goldstein Zoe Daniel,
Author & disability advocate Hannah Diviney,
Artist, Film Producer, Director & Writer Artist, George Gittoes

Monday, 21 August at 9.35pm AEST on ABC.
