Behind the scenes with the women shaking up Australian politics | Four Corners
Вставка
- Опубліковано 14 сер 2022
- There's a new force in Australian politics: women who defied the odds and won seats historically taken for granted by the major parties.
They now make up parliament’s largest crossbench since WWII.
Four Corners goes behind the scenes for a rare, candid look at their first weeks in office, following two MPs and one senator as they find their feet in Canberra.
But as the reality of life in government sinks in, can they maintain their promise of change?
Or will politics change them?

we are so lucky to live in Australia, please stop electing politicians that take us for granted Australia, we can do anything and be the best, I'm so glad to see change for the better
"ooh a rainbow! where's the pot of gold?" "josh likely took it with him" 😂😂😂
I’m usually typically a labor voter but growing up in Cabramatta I felt such a sense of gratitude to have Dai Lee champion the community and break that “safe seat” concept, we need more members voicing and fighting for their communities
you are lucky she isn't a "teal" but instead is "real" ...
Unelectable hair? Says the same people who voted in Josh bloody Frydenburg lol
From a 40 year old Aussie male I just want to wish these awesome women luck in everything they do. It saddens me that Labor is doing this. What an incredible opportunity Albanese has to truly change the political landscape in this country, and he does this dirty little trick. We need MORE independents who actually care about the community they seek to represent. Not just the (insert colour) party and it's power.
Jesus Christ they should just use the tax payer funded resources they have at parliament like legal aids, tax/financial law aids, and legislative Liberians and bill readers & deliverers that ANYONE elected in parliament can use! Or better yet OUT OF THEIR OWN RICH POCKETS! Government/opposition back benchers, a lot of them don't even have 1 tax paid office staffer? Why do the cross benchers all of a sudden think they're entitled for more hands that are only use for either their coffee or formal dress deliveries? Honestly you shouldn't be putting your trust in those people whose first actual critique of the new government relates to policy that causes a lose of some comfort AT BEST
Surprised at how bland the building is inside... The allocation of staffing should not be decided by the political party in power.
Early days for the independent movement, I think we will eventually see a much larger cross-bench within the next 2 elections that will hold balance of power. Both major parties are out of touch and only care about preserving the 2-party system.
Many of these teals will form a voting block and eventually join the Libs again
I would be apprehensive about learning the established norms simply because these leaders are “rookies.” The entire reason why you entered the political realm is to CHANGE the norms. Too many people get involved in politics with a drive to truly represent the people. However, in time, they simply resemble the same political population by adhering to old patterns accepted as a political climate, or a ‘this is how it’s done’ standard. Why? Because the folks in politics enter into the political fraternity and the standards NEVER change. Stay the course. Disrupt the norms. And speak and expose actions in the non-typical realms. Set new standards.
Independents who history will show set Australia up to be a real player in climate technologies and industry for this century and beyond. Thank you ladies. Our children and grandchildren will learn about you and thank you!
This aged well,
NOT!!!!!!!!!!!!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Understaffing these politicians is not working for the people of Australia, very disappointing
The difference between AUS and the US is that we (Australian’s) want REAL change and we elected a group of new people to do this. Not a media personality. Australians want very clever people representing us, and here we are. Amazing 🤩
Exactly America is sad how on earth they think that a media personality or a movie star (Ronald Reagon worse president ever) and of course Trump the most stupid of them all. Good on Australia these women rock.
Americans want real change as well. They just have a very bad system set up, which makes it harder (not impossible but a lot harder) for them to get change.
@@pronumeral1446 lol, bad. Their Electoral College setup is baffling. Apparently, it was a concession to the Southern States after a Civil War. Only case in human history in which to the loser go the spoils. Good luck from Canada. Aus rocks.
*"The difference between AUS and the US is that we (Australian’s) want REAL change and we elected a group of new people to do this."* That's hilarious.
This is a revolution by the upper class so stop patting yourself on the back
People who voted for these people I hope they can live with their choices.
Australia is changing. Our country is better with these women in office. The nation has chosen not to stay with the status quo! G’day it is!
We'll see
Clive Palmer, a billionaire oligarch spent 100 mil over 151 electorate. That equals approximately 662k per electorate. Monique Ryan spent 1.1 million. Imagine thinking she is ‘independent’ with nearly double that Palmer spent per electorate.
@@Coolsomeone234 yes we will see about time the stale white male left the room.
It’s funny how we’re trying to portray the wealthiest communities in the country as the inspiring underdogs who are saving the country
That moment at 3:21 was so cathartic!
A huge thank you to these independents, these women - you helped Australia dodge a bullet. Imsgine if Scott Morrison had remained as Prime Minister. Looking forward to the outcomes you'll help to bring about over the coming years
Go girls, give them hell!
Monique Ryan showed good and mature self-reflection after meeting with the PM. Strong sign of good character and a fine political representative.
All the Teals and Independents need to now come clean and stop whinging about the staffing issue which is that they will get what every other member gets-whether Labor, Lib, Nat, Green, PHON, JLG, Teal or Independent.
So either share your resources, or use the significant skills and processes of the Parliamentary Library, and realise that Morrison's bribe of four staffers to Independents to get his legislation through the Senate is now over-just like his political career.
The Independents (women) should all join forces and set up an outsourcing/sharing Staff complementary workforce calling for an army of Volunteers. How about that. Has Albanese cut his own Staffing back? Girls, get to it. Politics is a dirty business, especially when it comes to Male/Female shows of who really is in Power. Please don't get too woke and don't lose heart. Go look at the English BBC series "Yes, Minister". and "Yes, Prime Minister." Might help to refresh your memories.
That's a great idea!
EVERY member of parliament gets the same allocation of taxpayer-funded staff, whether it is Lab, Lib, Hanson or the Greens.
Late last year, Scotty offered the Indeoendents in the Senate a bribe of THREE extra staff (paid by the taxpayer), so the independents had FOUR staffers, and every other member and senator had ONE.
Now, Scotty is not PM anymore, and so his bribe is no longer on the table. The parliamentary library is able to give all members and senators the information they need to do their work. The Teals could share some of their resources, as they do have much common ground.
wonderful news 😃 this fills me with hope for the better. Condolences about the sfaff drop though. Hoping the best for these brave ladies in the future!
How many staff do the Liberals and Labour MPs have each ? What was the usual staffing levels? How can the Prime Minister just change that at his whim? I would have appreciated a bit more information at that.
I looked at the Parliament website, which has not been updated since 6/21.
Good luck to all the Teal's. I have more faith in them.
The staffers thing seems a bit ridiculous. I don't understand why they would ever each need 4.
Unsure if 1 is enough or it should be 2, but seems like a lot of the work would be duplicated which is what the parliamentary library is supposed to help with?
It was Scotty's bribe from 2021. The Teals and Lambie wanted to keep it (having far more staff than any other member or senator), instead of just returning to the normal number of one.
@@ParArdua oh that corrupt stale white male Morrison so glad he has gone.
Democracy is founded on the "Power" of persuasion. (I hope everyone is mutually respectful and inclusive of themselves in fairness)
The reason why Australians lost trust in Politics seems to have prevailed past the Election results, so that motivation that brought the Independents in, has to continue also.
Time will tell if real change happens
"One of the hallmarks of the teals is that everyone seems very nice, but is there competition?" - Softball questioning from Four Corners
These women are Giant Killers!
The staffing issue is not correct. This was addressed on insiders, where they are getting 1+4 staffers, not just 1. Last year it used to be 4 staffers so overall it has increased.
Well no, they are allocated 4 electorate officers, these are for constituent concerns. The reduction from 4 to 1 was parliamentary staffing - on policy matters.
Way to go!!! Stay strong!!!
Forgot to mention Pauline Hanson
She's not a new female independent. Try to keep up.
Hey Hannah Gadsby, ol' mate!
It just goes to prove that WOMEN can be more kick ass than a so called real man.
It proves nothing more than identity politics has taken hold in some woke minded electorates .
@@mawsoncasey7347 Are you able to explain your position without using buzzwords?
Name me the five most successful wahmen politicians. I'll wait...
@@channelname1019 and kick ass is not a buzz word . 🤣
@@channelname1019 Bro can't comprehend what was said. jfc
This is more about who listening to Rupert Murdoch
In response to the staffing cuts, remember, "Boys will be boys"! Take heart, ladies. The PM must really be afraid of you to resort to such childishness and to hide behind his position of authority.
And as for us voters, time for us to grow up and vote for the responsible adult candidate, instead of a........, well, you know!
Hello and respects from Canada.
See from the register of interests that Monique Ryan says she is still working a medical consultant. Here's me thinking we paid MPs three times the average wage because it was a full time job.
W ho’d be bothered watching them. To me do they know anything. Climate is always the same day and night. You put Josh Frydenberg into parliament and I’m sure he’d win it.
Just another form of Hegelian Dialectics...If you still believe that politicians or these "representatives" can seriously REPRESENT YOU, then I hope you enjoy constantly getting sold out time and time again. Until people decide to REPRESENT THEMSELVES and take responsibility for their own thoughts, emotions and actions, don't expect things to change...Natural LAW is the only way forward...
The way they are complaining about the staffing cuts is pathetic. Scoop bought them off well
Ooh I need to said that why your comment function was turned off for Solomon Island China clips¿ or you do the same like those not allow you shoot their building. It’s not free speech, it’s called self brain washing.
Let’s make a public website that every politicians investments are at the forefront of why they do and say what they do.
Your days are numbered. This is so appalling reporting.
Work for your freedom" the Queen that have no Education apart from what she got from her nanny, and can have a job for 70th years, with the Men in gray telling her what to do, just Imagine what someone that is well Educated could do, women need to stop sitting back and take charge of their lives, you don't have to have a trust fund or someone died and passing on the CEO, job for you to make a life, stop being past over and take your country to new "hight" make your own table!!
Is it simply just class snobbery as to how these seats went to independents rather than Labor. Their key talking points were all Labor talking points?
I don't know bro but your history videos are based as!
Most teals were elected because liberal voters has gone too far to the right. Teals have more ambitious climate targets and focus more on that area as well.
Dai Le on the other was elected because Labor attempted to run its most hated member in a seat she had never lived in with a community she had no idea about.
These voters are liberal to the core and would never vote labor or greens. The Liberal party abandoned these heartland former safe liberal voters by selling out to the nationals over many years. They simply went elsewhere and the independents were a convenient choice
@@zak2961 Could you please explain how they are too far right? They support mass immigration, lockdowns and the green agenda. Sounds like Labor to me.
But the seats were LIBERAL. Liberal voters will not vote Labor, but they will vote for a non-Labor candidate.
Climate change is not a left-right issue, it is about the future of ALL of us. Lib/Nats made a fundamental blunder in putting their fossil fuel snd media donors before the welfare of the Australian people. That needed to be fixed.
In contrast to foreign correspondence we are in deed the lucky country
Arriving in Canberra to be a politician - "I feel like they're playing politics"...
This video is an absolute disgrace from our ABC. Seriously most of this four corners doc are just whining about the removal of staffing bribes
Put your masks on lol
Ah the mighty Teals out to save the world from the big bad Climate.
Nonsense
A single donor gave $150,000 and you don't think she will beholden to him when he comes and asks for a favor, or that his opinion will hold more weight than others opinions, money in politics is dangerous ask America, and no one person should be able to give that much, because at the end of the day he will want to see value for what he paid $150k for
It's a valid concern, but a $150 grand contribution isn't what won any of these contests, it took hundreds of grassroots volunteers months of unpaid campaign work to make these wins happen, not a handout
That is the same for ALL politicians.
How do you think that Rupert Murdoch gets his party elected, and the policies they follow when they are in govt?
@@Christmas12 not saying it's what got her elected, just saying it shouldn't be allowed BECAUSE the people who DID get her elected and this person probably have very DIFFERENT agendas
@@ParArdua I don't like it ever, whoever does it
@@resolecca difference is more than half of the teal independents money came from ordinary people. Major parties, almost none
No no no
😔
These are women who have been selected, directed and funded by a billionaire businessman who opted to stay in in the background. It's Charlie's Angels with privileged middle class, middle aged women playing the lead roles.
About time the stale white male left the room.
♥️💛♥️
1:01 Slay, Queen(s)! ⚡
The lady should really try to somehow make nicer with its hair isn't to great.
You should really try to somehow make nicer with english spelling and grammar.
If anyone approaches me with that accent I ran for my life, Australian accent is like nails on a corkboard cringe worthy its almost criminal.
The woman at 1:19 reminded me of "Fleabag" when she turn her head a smidgin and gave us a big toothy grin. I almost expected her to give us a wink and make some sly but hilarious comment about politics.
Narrator: Dai Lee works the room like a celebrity.
Me: no, she's working the room like a fvken clown.
I like that she was aware of her imposter syndrome theatrics and wish her the best of luck
I like her stale she seems very friendly and intelligent. Go woman
Well let's face it... You ARE having a bad hair day...
What hairline is under that cap Malcolm?
Cringe.
Instead of things getting done, It will be a bunch of Karens making the sounds of seagulls.
🤏
And that’d still be better than the last 9 years. So we’re still moving in the right direction. 😉
@@kevlee80rudals Wrong.
@@kevlee80rudals But you keep believing in this smoke screen. You can vote for the clowns next year.
Say what you like. But your opinion obviously isn't shared by the electors who elected these independents lmao.
Just shun people before they have even had a chance to do anything. Typical
The pack of Karen's can't ask to see the manager now... Let's sit back and watch the collapse.
Why didn't you run then 'Malcolm Brewer'?
Or is the extent of your political ability limited to just commenting on UA-cam boards?
@@AZ2PM Get back to me in 12 months Andrew when our economy is like that of Sri Lanka... See who's gonna regret his vote...
@@AZ2PM Do you only comment the same thing? Or is that the extent of your limited political ability?
Big tough men having a hissyfit over women in govt.
Malcolm can't even live up to his own stereotypes of masculinity and instead of stoic acceptance and dignified repose he resorts to hysterical whining on social media. What a man!
@@channelname1019 If calling a Karen a 'Karen' is a hissyfit...
