Happy Australia Day! Dean Smith has suggested legislation to protect January 26 as the day. Michelle Grattan says it’s not a convincing argument: https://theconversation.com/grattan-on-friday-liberals-stir-the-culture-war-pot-but-whos-listening-110445
Macca and Tass discuss the increasingly controversial and polarising celebration with Misha Ketchell @mishaketch, editor of The Conversation @ConversationEDU and SatMag regular.
Of course, #AustraliaDay also comes with the Honours – are we giving people a gong just for doing their job?
Misha discusses new research showing there is a biological basis to gender identity, which could give us insight into whether gender dysphoria may be hard wired and not a product of childhood trauma or mental disease.
We wrap up with the looming election, but Misha proposes more collaborative and forward thinking government; not just horse race elections.
