Albo vs Hannah Ferguson: Can a 28-year old media star topple the PM?

Next election, Prime Minister Anthony Albanese will have a new contender for his Western Sydney seat, with commentator and Cheek Media founder Hannah Ferguson announcing she’s taking a tilt.

Ferguson says she’s started canvassing locals to find out what they want from their representative, and that she’s already been warned that attempts to build a dirt file on her have begun. 

Today, we speak with Ferguson, and political journalist Karen Middleton, about what it takes to actually oust a PM, and what else could be in store.
