ALP National Conference Low-Down

Saturday, 19 August 2023 - 9:00am to 9:30am

On today’s Radioactive Show we travel to Meanjin, Brisbane, to hear direct from the nuclear free movement at the Australian Labor Party National Conference. We hear from Gem Romuld, national director for ICAN Australia, the International Campaign to Abolish Nuclear Weapons. Gem takes us through ICAN’s position coming into the ALP national conference, and assesses whether the ALP are standing up to their commitment to sign onto the Treaty to Ban the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons. Later in the show we hear from activist Jaimie Jeffries, she organises with the No Aukus coalition Victoria. Jaimie takes us to the scene of the rally outside the ALP National Conference and the coalition of strong voices speaking up for an alternative future.
