'Sense of impending doom': Should the Liberals and Nationals break up forever?
The Nationals have officially dumped their net zero policy - but does that mean the Liberals are going to dump them? This week, we speak to Jill Sheppard, a political scientist from the Australian National University, about what's happening to the Coalition's relationship and if they should break up.

What’s the Senate actually estimating? Ft. David Pocock
The first senate estimates of the 48th Parliament have arrived – where the Albanese Labor Government and representatives from the Australian Public Service and government agencies are quizzed for up to 14 hours a day about pretty much anything. It’s tedious, it’s long, but it’s all about accountability, and Independent Senator for the ACT David Pocock takes us behind the scenes. Plus Bob Katter has a suggestion for the footy off-season, and Andrew Hastie has left the Coalition front bench.

Are neo-Nazis REALLY gaining traction in Australia?
What was sold as a rally against mass immigration had far right ideology from the start. With neo-Nazis attending the rally and attempting to recruit new members, is far-right extremism on the rise in Australia? Dr Callum Jones and Professor Greg Barton break down what's behind these rallies, and how the government should respond.

Now we have a new parliament, Party Time will stay by your side through the sitting weeks, looking at what politics will mean for you - and making it a little bit more fun.
