Miranda Live: Vaping, Barnaby Joyce and Married at First Sight
FROM the potential dangers of e-cigarettes and “vaping” to what the Nationals need to do to survive the growing Barnaby Joyce scandal to the oyster-hating Sydney tradie who is looking pretty unlucky in love on MAFS — it’s Miranda Live.
FROM the potential dangers of e-cigarettes and “vaping” to what the Nationals need to do to survive the growing Barnaby Joyce scandal to the oyster-hating Sydney tradie who is looking pretty unlucky in love on Married at First Sight — it’s Miranda Live.
Former Nationals Leader John Anderson, who was deputy prime minister under John Howard, told Miranda Devine the party needed to “own” the Barnaby Joyce saga.
“You’ve got to own the things you’re responsible for and the National Party is responsible for ensuring the Coalition can govern well, otherwise it will spiral out of control,” he told Devine.
LISTEN TO THE FULL SHOW:
Devine also talked “vaping” with NSW Health Minister Brad Hazzard, who is seeking to ban e-cigarettes from public places.
Devine was also in the studio with columnist, author and psychiatrist Tanveer Ahmed who asked “are we setting ourself up to fail when it comes to marriage?”
