Stephen Conroy

I mean, yes, it's a bad situation, but clearly the worst of the worst that was going to come out of it.

Another thing that I would say is maybe a bit of a silver lining or a positive out of this is a record sort of $64 million loss by the back end of 2023, the same year that Stephen Conroy pointed to the fact that all the Silver Lake money is already spent.

So they're making amends again, and the losses came up 20 million.

So clearly there's been a course direction there that's in the right direction.

I get you.

Because at a certain point, the panic button was pressed, right? And this does correlate with a lot of leadership changes, I'd say as well.

You pointed to Stephen Conroy and then later down the park, we get to Steve Rosich as well as the CEO.

But the first round of mass redundancies hit in January of 2024.

Glad you're here tonight and you're about to have a good conversation because Carlos Quaremba is a member of the Upper House in South Australia with One Nation.

Stephen Conroy was a former Cabinet Minister.

Labor to his bootstraps, but he's only just here to help.

He's always just here to help.

The opposition leader is at negative 10%.

Joining me now is former Nationals Minister and now Bondi Partners Senior Advisor, Peter McGorran, and former Labor Minister, Stephen Conroy.

Welcome to you both, gentlemen.

Peter, I'll start with you.

So it's all predictable.

Everybody knew the sitting member was leaving and they've all thought about their positions before today.

Peter McGoran, Stephen Conroy, always great to chat.

Thanks so much for joining me.

So do whatever you can to extract data from your workflows, your systems, your business.

And then manage that.

Write a business plan.

And business plans are sort of a dirty old term.

Thank you very much for watching.

Here to help, as always, on a Tuesday night is our mate Stephen Conroy, Labor legend and no doubt will call out every single problem with this government.

Carlos Corimba does his bit for One Nation in the Upper House in the South Australian Parliament.

Lovely to see you both.

With that lie.

Joining me is Michael Kroger, former President of the Victorian Liberals, and Stephen Conroy, former Labor Senator and Cabinet Minister.

Michael Kroger, why this rush to link agendas, like the Greens' anti-Israel one, to a horrific attack like this when absolutely nobody yet knows the motives or the causes?

Well, that's absolutely right, Andrew.

A lot can happen, but I also think sentiment is shifting and it's all against Labor.

It could be even worse.

Michael Kroger, Stephen Conroy, thank you very much to you both.

After the break, more riots in France over the weekend now spreading to Italy with protesters invading the Colosseum.

And just as a quick aside...

Money, money, money? No, Stephen Conroy and I sat down once, he was a former Labor senator, and we tried to find something that we had in common.

He was Collingwood, I was Geelong, and politics, polls apart, but we finally found that we both liked ABBA.

So we used to joke to each other across the chamber and in the halls about ABBA because that was the only thing we had in common.
