Join John and former Australian Prime Minister John Howard as they discuss the issues that will determine the upcoming Australian election in 2025. Economic issues play a prominent role, with concerns over declining productivity and rising living costs. Energy policy especially features, where debates around nuclear power versus renewables highlight the need for reliable, affordable solutions. The former Prime Minister and former Deputy Prime Minister also discuss the need to bolster national security as traditional global powers weaken, leaving vulnerabilities in defence, supply chains and cyber security.

The conversation also examines the importance of maintaining social cohesion and a unified national identity in a rapidly diversifying society. It emphasises the need for Australia's leaders to have integrity and competence, urging Australians to prioritise these qualities when choosing to elect those who will steer the country through complex global and domestic challenges.

After Sir Robert Menzies, John Howard is Australia’s second longest-serving Prime Minister. He was Prime Minister from 1996 to 2007. During the Howard Government Australia experienced unprecedented economic prosperity as well as remaining in budget surplus.
