Saturday, 10 September 2016 - 7:30am to 9:00am

The Battle for the Sydney College of the Arts has all the elements common to the transformation of Australian Univeristies to the US corporate model. We talk to Thomas McLoughlin the solicitor for the Sydney University SRC about the fight. Tiernan Brady was the Political Director for the Irish campaign for marriage equality. He has some interesting things to say about how to win a potentially divisive social justice campaign. Kevin Healy goes through the week with a satirical brush. Dr Noah Bassil has a free ranging conversation that takes us to the Sudan, China and Australia as the neoliberal campaign tries to divert attention from the failure of its system to individuals like refugees for its troubles.
