A federal election battleground
| | Australians are holding their breath as Cyclone Alfred barrels towards south-east Queensland and northern NSW. We’ve been here before – devastation, dislocation, the long road of insurance claims and rebuilding. What’s your experience? Q+A wants your story. This week’s hard question was by a Ukrainian in the audience who expressed his worry about how US President Donald Trump is dealing with Russia’s war against Ukraine. Q+A is on the road in Wyong on the Central Coast of NSW – a federal election battleground and a community that’s faced natural disasters of its own. Cost of living, housing, work and commuting, health and welfare service delivery – and how floods, fires and our changing environment impact where and how we live. I can't wait to hear your questions — and get your answers. Patricia Karvelas Watch Q+A Monday at 9.35pm AEDT on ABC TV and ABC iview. Register here to join the studio audience in Wyong on Monday, March 9. | |
