About the episode

Friday Headlines: Albo goes for a tumble, Abbie Chatfield interviews cleared by AEC, Victorian man charged for allegedly threatening to kill politician, gay conversion therapy ban now in effect in NSW, and the Matildas take on South Korea in a friendly tonight! Deep Dive: Public service jobs are sometimes viewed as more stable, well-paid, and offering better conditions than many private-sector roles. But are there too many of them?  Opposition Leader Peter Dutton has pledged to slash 41,000 public service jobs, claiming it will save billions and redirect funds to frontline services. His plan has sparked fierce debate—are these roles essential, or is the bureaucracy bloated?  In this episode of The Briefing, Chris Spyrou speaks with News Corp Australia's National Political Editor, Clare Armstrong, who is currently on the campaign trail with Dutton, to unpack the political and real-world impact of these proposed cuts. Further listening from the headlines:  Has Australia had its football moment?
