The Party Line on Rising Tide and the Greens’
climate capitulation (ft Zack Schofield).
Who wants to be a millionaire is a
somewhat surprising focus of our first segment, as Anneke and her friend fight
for the right to participate in the toxic reality TV industry. We then
interview Rising Tide community organiser Zack Schofield, who is one of the
wonderful people that have just organised the People’s Blockade of Newcastle
Coal Port. We discuss the history of the campaign, its demands and why it’s in
workers interest to support the ending of the fossil fuel industry. We follow
this up with a scathing look at Labor’s climate bill, in particular the Green’s
decision to pass it barely amended, and what it says about the limits of the
Greens’ parliamentary approach.

This is a podcast by members of the Socialist
Party in Naarm (Melbourne). We hope to bring a radical perspective to a podcast
landscape dominated by insipid liberalism (looking at you, The Daily). The pod
will come out weekly, and aims to breakdown news and current events from a
socialist point of view. While a lot of what’s going on in the world is fairly
bleak, The Party Line will try and highlight voices of resistance and struggle.
