Description

The big election debate is on tonight, as ScoMo and Albo flip the switch to ‘scary’. So just how worried should we be about cashless welfare cards, boats, Medicare and energy bills?
And holding your arms out in silent protest is now a penalty offence in AFL, as sports try to protect umpires from abuse. But has footy taken it too far? Sports editor Wally Mason joins us. 
The Front is presented by Claire Harvey, produced by Hareem Khan, and edited by Tiffany Dimmack. The multimedia editor is Lia Tsamoglou, and original music composed by Jasper Leak.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
