A wide-ranging interview on the republic and how it will benefit women is given by Women for An Australian Republic’s Sarah Brasch, for broadcast on national community radio. The discussion touches on the large number of issues which have arisen this year about the republic and how Australia’s head of state is chosen. Also covered were the appointment of prominent republic supporter, Richard Butler, as Governor of Tasmania, the controversial content of speeches made by the new Governor-General and the increasingly presidential role played by the current Prime Minister.
